It is interesting to consider that many people had fathers who were Masons, at some point in time and do not realize. Was it because these parents were so secretive about their involvement?, Or simply go unnoticed.
It seems that the Masons, bricklayers and not fight, they all have their own explanations what is Freemasonry. The problem is that no two explanations seem to disagree entirely. In fact, a Mason will give his version of what the organization question and then you can apply for the Mason who comes, who comes across the same question and you get a totally different explanation. Hard to believe you they are the same organization.
There is no definite date as to Masonry, when it became a reality. We believe that goes back to the 1700s during the time of stonecutters and perhaps focused on the influence of the Templars. Christians were warrior monks who were responsible for helping the pilgrims through the Land saint. Eventually they formed a Grand Lodge of England and are the administrative area of Grand Lodges in all sectors. In the U.S., it seems that there is a Grand Lodge in each state In Canada, one in each province. Therefore, one can see that there are a small organization, by any means. Suppose that in the U.S., more than 1,300 shelters.
Freemasonry spread from England to the U.S. and boasted of many political figures as part of its accession, as George Washington and Benjamin Franklin, for example. It is said that Freemasonry has played an important role in the Revolutionary War. Moreover it is said that many debates on the ratification of the Bill of Rights and a constitutional convention was held in Masonic lodges.
The Lodge is the meeting place of local masons. Symbolic lessons taking place between the Masonic sfocuses on lessons learned during the building of King Solomon's Temple in the days of the Bible. This is where the term originated Lodge. It seems that during the winter months, when Masons were unable to work, they build houses for shelter and that is where the concept Lodge is taken.
Interestingly, the House of Commons in London is the master of the Lodge. England was the founding father of Masonry and of what is known to spread in the United States for the English title has been retained. In organizations referred to their leadership as president of this fraternity refers to them as Venerable Master of the Lodge.
It is reported that each Lodge has its own alternative, which is necessary to contain the volume of the Sacred Law. Clearly, in the United States and Canada, which is most often the Bible.
Backbone of Freemasonry is a belief that each person is designated to make the world a better place to live. Either for the final charity. Giving money to the area of children's hospitals is often led by the Shriners. Then there is the Scottish Rite Mason, who supports a large number charitable organizations. So many acts of kindness that goes unnoticed, like the Masons not only boast of their good works.
Freemasons feel that their duty is encouraging its members to constantly strive to improve their qualities well. They are considered almost a support group for morality they believe in and in standby mode. It seems that promote other company because of their beliefs.
In addition to all his charities, members of the Masons use the time they spend their shelters. Besides the fact that membership is the only male, focus on family and plan many family events like picnics and outings.
There are two types of meetings that take place in the boxes. One is the regular working meeting. Always start and end with a ceremony dedicated to the values of life that represents the builder. It is the reading of the minutes, such as a demonstration and the vote seekers. Not planning for charitable functions and personal events. Members are appointed as brothers in this fraternity. The second type of meeting would be the introductory meeting. Here is where new members are welcome in Freemasonry. This is done through rituals or officially known as degrees.
They say that every Lodge has deployed outside the lodge such composition are ladies nights or bring a friend, it is a proceeding in the public arena.
