Is Freemasonry the most /lit/ organization to join? Freemasonry deals with issues of philosophy, theology, esoterica and the occult in a way that I see no other organization achieve. Furthermore, they are even better at gatekeeping than we are.
Why haven't you joined your local Masonic Lodge yet? If they don't start getting new members soon, much of their secret knowledge might be lost.

Yes.

Masonry was overrun with subversive Jews a long time ago, the organization is a pitiful husk of what it once was. You can find some value in onsey-twosie lodges, but it's better off dead at this point.

Its just a club for boomers. Unless you get the real initiation, which means shady shit. Masons can just disappear for all I care.

Join the A∴A∴ instead.

People have already figured out the 33rd degree secrets like the earth being flat. I've considered joining my local and dropping stuff for the lower levels haven't been initiated yet just to piss off the guys who did humiliation rituals just to be fed crumbs.

They really don't. Outsiders hype them up that way but they're just boring LARPers at best. If there's any secret world-running business you're not going to find out anyway, they wouldn't tell that to you. Just found your own /lit/ religion if you're desperate for those things.

>organization
all organizations are clashes of individuals, vying for superiority over each other.
do your own shit, fucko. start your own sex cult and force your followers to do cool shit.

Don't they worship Lucifer though? Lucifer the fallen angel that God cast down from heaven?
I still have to read Morals & Dogma and other freemason-core books. I read Secret Teachings of All Ages by Manly Hall, but i heard that Manly Hall was like a lying trickster or something and that makes his book a bunch of bullcrap because of it or something like that

I'm a 3rd degree in the craft and my dad is a 32nd degree in the Rose Croix (Scottish Rite), as well as some other things like SRIA and OSM. It's pretty fun so far, but you can tell it's mainly a social club to the boomers, some of the younger guys are into the esoteric stuff more. I'll be joining the Rose Croix probably next year once the coronavirus stuff dies down. (Not American btw).
