Freemasons

According to the Missouri Lodge of Research (part of the Freemasons in Missouri), at least 22 Freemasons have won a Nobel prize, including such notables as Winston Churchill, Alexander Fleming, Frank Kellogg, Rudyard Kipling, George Marshall and Theodore Roosevelt.

A Royal Arch Freemason is a Freemason who has attained the Master Mason Degree, and who has additionally attained the Royal Arch Degree within the appendant York Rite of Freemasonry.

Unless the person specifically states that he is a member of the Freemasons, it is hard to know for sure.

Sure.

They might sacrifice their time and money to help other people perhaps.

Unless someone specifically states that he is a member of the freemasons, it is hard to know for sure.

yes

He does not mention it in any materials that I know of; I do not believe James Arness is a Freemason.

Yes the undertaker is freemason,as you can see he is cold blooded and says his father is the devil itself

Unless someone specifically states that he is a member of the Freemasons it is almost impossible to know for sure that they are.

Many historians believe that the first evidence of freemasonry came with the legendary Knights Templar which dates as far back as 1096,but the first Masonic Lodge was established on 24 June 1717.Thus one could go as far to say that Freemasonry officially originated in 1717.

Unless a person specifically says that he is a member of the Freemasons, it is difficult to say one way or another whether he is.

Masons or Freemasons are members of a fraternal society which can trace its roots to the middle ages. It traces its modern organization to 1717. Members belong to local groups, called Lodges, which are organized into larger groups called Grand Lodges. In Canada, the United States, Australia and Brazil, each state or province has its own Grand Lodge. In England and Scotland, there is one very large Grand Lodge, with many Provincial Grand Lodges. Although there is much communication, friendship and co-operation between Grand Lodges, they have no control over each other or each others' members.

Masons dedicate themselves to self-improvement, community service and charity and to brotherhood. Members usually must be adult men of good character who believe in a Supreme Being and a Holy Book. Discussions of sectarian religion and partisan politics are forbidden in Lodge. As a result, friendships formed in Masonic Lodges can bridge religious and political differences, a fact which annoys and alarms members of some religions.

The Order of the Eastern Star is an Organization formed by Rob Morris in the United States about 1850, specifically to allow the female relatives of Masons to meet with them in a pseudo-Masonic way. Eastern Star Chapters are led by a woman called the Matron with the assistance of a man who is a Mason called the Patron. In order to join, a man must be a Mason and a woman the wife, mother, sister or daughter of a Mason.

Freemasons do not practice witchcraft.

The all-seeing eye in masonry is a symbol for what Masons call "The Great Architect". It can be God or Allah, or Mind, or the Ideal that we all carry inside ourselves. Masonry, like AA, and a number of other organizations, contains a belief in man's "Higher Power", but leaves it to the individual to decide what to call it.

If you look on the back of the US dollar bill, you will see an unfinished pyramid, with the capstone, containing the Eye, hanging above it. That is to remind us that we can only build so high, or go so far, and that the Completion of any effort is Always done by the Great Architect.

Masons do not expect money for performing a funeral service for a brother.

A masonic funeral is a right afforded to all Master Masons (and in some jurisdiction Entered Apprentices and Fellowcrafts) in good standing.

Probably the same way everyone else feels about them. Freemasons aren't a religious sect.

It is hard to know for sure, but I could not find where he is a Freemason.

There is no Shriners password that I know of (and I am a member of the Shrine).

Actually, there are passwords required to get into the temple during official meetings, but no one that is a Shriner should be willing to give them out to the general public.

He was, yes. He belonged to Kinistino Lodge #1 GRS in Prince Albert.
