To my knowledge there isn't a direct connection between Masons and homosexuality. However, The Vatican uses ritualistic sodomy to summon demons, and the Illuminati symbol does look like a man bending over (they are very big on symbolism)

Allow me to quickly illustrate:



This could just be a vulgar joke or perhaps there is something more sinister going on.

Oh yeah and speaking of which, I heard on the JFK II documentary and a few other places that the Skull and Bones initiation involves laying in a coffin and being masturbated onto by accepted members (no pun intended, but hilarious nonetheless).

In my opinion and speculation, some major political figures have been coerced into performing homosexual acts which are being used as collateral in case they ever decide to abandon their allegiance. The blackmailers keep some sort of record, probably a video taping of the act and use it to blackmail these people who go on to become world leaders. is used it is for reason of blackmail. Keep in mind these are devout Christian family men with orthodox 'beliefs' and 'family values'. If you have the power to destroy a person's life you essentially have power over any and all of their actions.

Here we see that in Freemasonry, both aspects of masculine and feminine are embodied within the Goat God or Baphomet. This does not create a clear link to homosexuality and Freemasonry, however, it supports the argument that such behavior may be tolerated and not out of the norms of various lodges. The local lodge is called the "Blue Lodge." different lodges may have different norms and there is also a hierarchy from state to state on what is allowed. For instance, in certain states, women are permitted to join lodges.

While these things are not permitted as rituals in the Temple, it does not mean that members may not take it upon themselves to participate in such mockery. I detest the debasement of innocence and how absolute power tries to hide behind religion and Fellowcraft. Such power should be outed. It is the duty of every Mason to correct the problem themselves if they are unwilling to stop it by letting the light shine on the dark thing. Most become Freemasons to be better people. Those that misuse it are worthy of...

As others will tell you, there is good and bad in every organization. No organization is inherently evil. Every organization is subject to graft, but few will admit the folly when it occurs because of oaths and allegiance. Many use the Craft to their aim of gaining power and hiding their deeds which are unseemly. I think that this is wrong and gives the Brotherhood a bad name.

In an earlier post, I did not mean to sound dismissal with regards to Freemasonry, when I mentioned the duality of Baphomet. It is just that there is a philosophy which postulates that such differences may not be as black and white as the uninitiated suppose. I know that there are Brothers here. It is incumbent upon the initiated to own up to misdeeds of those unworthy and maintain the oath to support democracy and society that was taken early on in the journey.


Liber Capricornus, The Symbolism of the Goat
by Eugene W. Plawiuk, Master Mason

Presented to Norwood Lodge No.90 A.F.& A.M. G.R.A.
September 3 1991 C.E.

"The androgenous symbolism of the horn of plenty is typical of the symbolism of the goat in general. While the Greek Goat Gods Pan and Dionysius were male, we look at the goat as an animal in masculine terms while it is both male and female. The identification of the the male goat in by his beard, since both genders have horns. The phrase " by my beard, or " he pulled my beard " as well as the style of beard called a 'goatee' all relate to the goat.

The goat-Gods Pan and Dionysius in Greek mythology represent the forest and unbridled nature; lust in the case of Pan and Drinking, and fertility in the case of Dionysius. Hence from the OED we have the term for a lecherous older man; "you old Goat". Pan is represented as being half human, half goat with horns, and would later be used in medieval times to represent the devil.



The Goat of Mendes or Baphomet whom the Templars were accused of worshipping is a Goat Headed deity, being formed of both male and female principles, with a Caduceus of Mercury for its phallus. One arm points up and one down , with the latin ' Solve et Coagula' written on them. This is not the christian devil but a symbol of the ancient alchemists representing the fact that nature and natures God is a combination and balance of male and female forces, light and darkness, moisture and dryness. The very principle of Hermes Trismegitus; As Above So Below" is what is symbolized by Baphomet."

To the OP...... you've done some research, and made some very tenuous connections. What I find is interesting is that you seem to think it's a big smear on Masonry to infer that they might have homosexual members.

Gee, you think?

What next, a furtive tie to ....... *gasp* teachers, and...... *double gasp and a sigh* doctors...... Nooooooooooooooo! and pediatricians! EEEEEK!!!

Listen, we are humans. Homosexuals will comprise a general cross-section of every demographic. It just IS. No conspiracy.

Agreed freaky, the cadillac symbol represents female fertility aswel. Same concept as the U.S military's triangle ranking system representing males.

Nobody takes the concept seriously that higher ranking Golden Dawnish Illuminati Occultists are into sodomy. Thats the worst part of it because we know there are people that can be so vile. Crowley traveled the world and did no less.

As for sex with demons, I dont think that needs to be brought up either

p.s. I was a DeMolay for two years. My Mom was an Eastern Star, my Dad a Mason. I don't recall his ranking, and not certain if either of them ever told me. At the time I joined the DeMolays, they had both been into Masonry for better than 15 years. There were no "odd" rituals, and you know what? I KNOW for a fact that had there been anything untoward, they would NEVER EITHER OF THEM have encouraged me to join the DeMolays. I left the organization to strike out on my own to parts semi-known.

I think this [thread] is a snipe hunt.

I generally ignore anonymous posts, but frankly, this one had a level of misconception that I went ahead and responded:

No, no actually we dont. We clearly see Baphomet has no relationship to freemasonry and never has. You see when you do the research on Baphomet you find quickly that the term applies to an accusation made against the Knights Templar, whom by the way have been exonerated from that charge and all others. Additionally, you find that the link came to freemasonry came through the Leo Taxil hoax. A HOAX. It wasn't real, the hoaxer admitted it in front of a ton of media.

This is just not based in fact. No such behavior would ever be tolerated in a lodge, what people do outside the lodge is none of the lodges business - although none of the accusations of the flavor made here are likely to ever happen to begin with. Also, there is not 1 regular lodge in the world that admits women. Women, of their own accord, have started female masonry and co-masonry, but they are not recognized as regular by regular grand lodges. If we don't even recognize them as regular and have no masonic relations with them, exactly how is it were going to go about having "sex rituals" with them?

The problem is that there is no problem, so there is nothing to fix. Your preaching about what should be done for a problem that was made up and is no where to be found.

Of course the facts also dictate that while there is bad in every organization, there are multiple organizations that one can join that would be much more efficient to do all the evil things masons are accused of. Also, combined with the fact that there are millions of members and the few scandals that occur can be counted on 1 hand - with an organization that has exited for coming close to 300 years - means we're doing good compared to other organizations.

Lovely, except Baphomet has nothing to do with freemasonry. Never has been, never will be. As such, there is no problem with it, and nothing to "own up" to.

Yet again, we have people selectively quoting from masons. Yet again, I must remind you that no 1 person speaks for freemasonry or has authority over its dogma. And to begin with, if you looked at what you quoted, it does not at ALL say anything that backs up what you've said. Its a paper about where the term Baphomet comes from - and surprise - its not freemasonry and never has been. Someone wrote it because of people like you, who continue to make this false connection despite all evidence to the contrary.

Doesn't it seem kind of, I don't know, contradictory?

I mean, we got some people who think the Freemasons are evil neoconservatives out to dominate the world via the wealthy elite..

All the while pushing a liberal homosexual agenda?

I don't get it. But then again, this same guy, Chad, also said in another thread of his Freemasons where just clueless to anything because Druids where controlling their minds?

From my readings of ATS articles I think I could agree that Conspiracy theorist tend to be anti "elitist" or anyone with money, anti Mason and anti Semitic. I don't believe all are as I my self happen to be a conspiracy theorist, but I can surely see how those comparisons can be made.


It all depends on the anti-mason, there are two main groups....and how they attack us depends on teh audiance their trying to sell their lies to.

There's the fanatical religious right....they hate Masons because masonry has long promoted religious tolerance, the fact it's also often the same group of men that likely helped with funds to get their church built has blown a gasket in their WHITE/BLACK world. GASP a church elder that would call a Jew or Muslim brother? GASP...They also hate the idea that there might be ANY lesson in this world from philosophy to science that might be considered worthy of praise outside of the Bible.... for them the persuit of the sciences and arts goes against what I can only guess is a 1300's Medieval theocratic utopia....

The Second group is the progressive left. They also hate Masons because we require a faith in God, and tend to be men of deep religious conviction, the fact that many of our number also helped found the institutions that granted them their secular freedoms has caused them as well to blow a gasket....and so they accuse us of being neoconservative new world order types, hell bent on taking over the world and using the relgions to do so.....etc. It doesn't help that many of them are champions of socialism and communism, ideals deffinately NOT apart of Masonic view of Charity being a choice, and an obligation, not something enforced by a state.


I suppose you also have a third group that is muddled and doesn't bother to make distinctions and samples from both.

For some people it is simply is too difficult to understand that a group of men, might have a deep faith in God, and also feel a strong obligation to promote tolerance of all beliefs. Their world views are only in extremist points of views....they will never understand the meaning of the mosaic pavement or man's nature.

Never said that. My point was that homosexuals may openly be accepted in different lodges, based on community norms, not that any sexual behavior would be permitted in the lodge.



Of course the facts also dictate that while there is bad in every organization, there are multiple organizations that one can join that would be much more efficient to do all the evil things masons are accused of. Also, combined with the fact that there are millions of members and the few scandals that occur can be counted on 1 hand - with an organization that has exited for coming close to 300 years - means we're doing good compared to other organizations.


Could it mean, there are those who use the Craft to hide deeds which are unseemly. To be a Mason, one is supposed to be upright, beyond reproach and honorable. As I said previously, few join to be a bad person. Lets take politicians for example. How many trust even the politicians at the level of city government, let alone national government. Yet, statistically, more individuals in higher spheres of influence, such as political office, are Masons. I'm sure this will draw debate. None-the-less, many politicians are involved in scandals. When this happens they will call out for any favors they can get, and will often call out to a brother if they think it will save their butt. Statistically, I think the figures quoted above are more indicative of sweeping the dirt under the rug than that of good character. But you will make up your own mind, of course.

Lets consider, for example, three individuals that all go to the same lodge. One is a business owner, one an arson inspector, another an insurance investigator. Lets say that the first torches his place of business, then the other two cover up the incident and support the claim for insurance settlement. They split the difference. Another Brother keeps quiet. Was there a conspiracy and if there was, was it a Masonic conspiracy or a conspiracy of men who happened to be Freemasons? That question needs to be answered. How that is answered will determine what one considers a Masonic conspiracy versus just a conspiracy involving individuals that are Masons. The order would never commission such a thing, yet it may inadvertently shield such individuals through the benefits of association (the prosecutor and police chief are both in the same lodge as well).

To enjoy the benefits of membership means that you must also take care of each other first and protect the Brotherhood both in name and deed. Also, many times Freemasonry is an intermediate into other groups. People may also be recruited from the Brotherhood because they have already proven that they can keep a secret and have become accustomed to compartmentalization of information. With advancing degrees, new meanings to existing symbolism changes. Some antagonists to Freemasonry say that this is to prepare a person's mind slowly much like how a frog won't jump out of the water if it heated slowly, others say that the expanding meaning is commensurate with enlightenment and builds on the core meaning of those symbols. You would have to become a mason to find out for sure, but if that is why you would join you might be joining for the wrong reason.

I will leave this post with this thought. I was asked, "If Masons are such moral people and dedicated to advancing the cause of freedom and liberty, and there are so many in government, then why don't they clean it up and make it work for the common man?" I did not have an answer. Perhaps someone here can answer that.

Dear LowLevelMason,

Would you defer to the statements and writings of Manely P Hall? Could you explain the role of "Lucifer" in the gnosticism of the Freemasons? is this Venus? Can the symbolism in such concepts as the Quipploth have dual meaning, if so what are they? Is it true that Freemasons have special words that they can say in court that can get them off the hook? Could high level criminals and child molesters use special privileges given to Freemasons to get themselves off the hook from prosecution? What's more important to a Freemason, justice for a non-Mason or preserving the name of Freemasonry? Is it true that in war Masons are safe from their enemy if their enemy recognizes then as a fellow Mason through signs of fellowship, (widow's son)? If their enemy saves them, then who really are they loyal to first, their country or the Great Work? If they are not loyal to their country first, how can American Freemasons holding office defend the Constitution of the United States? Could the few incidences of of Freemason scandals be more a function of control through influence of the media, criminal justice system and other control functions within society? Thank you for your anticipated response to that which you not bound by oath to conceal.

Thank you.

Hall is often quoted by those who have done no research into masonry. The books with the "seething energies of lucifer" are written by Hall before he was ever a mason. He became a mason only later in life, after those things were already published - at the time he couldn't possibly have known what he was talking about.

Also, one thing your just going to need to accept is that no one speaks for freemasonry. Any mason can write any thing he wants, and it doesn't make it true. However, people only focus on those masons who write things that make for good anti-masonic quotes.

There is no Lucifer, or gnosticism in freemasonry. Never has been.

No, its not true that there are any words freemasons can say in court to get them off the hook. Its a urban legend, it's never happened. No one is getting out of their criminal charges due to being a mason. In fact, masonic judges are more likely to treat masons with harsher penalties and be even more severe with them because they broke their obligations.


Originally posted by Anonymous ATS

Clearly, justice for a non-mason. It is not a masonic duty to "preserve the name of Freemasonry." Additionally, it should occur to you that the actions of 1 man do not have any impact on the name of freemasonry.

No, its not true. There are urban legends about this, which could have some basis in reality. However, it has nothing to do with the way you phrased it. In practice it would sort of be like how in World War II both sides would pause during Christmas and cross battle lines. Being loyal to your country FIRST is a masonic obligation.

Thank you for your anticipated response to that which you not bound by oath to conceal.


The few instances of scandal that occur are are due to the actions of individuals and not organized freemasonry. They are people acting on their own for bad purposes. However, given the little power and authority freemasonry really has these scandals are extremely rare. When they do occur, they get hyped up because the press loves to have a field day with us since they still think we're a "secret society."

Finally, there is almost nothing I could not reveal to you. The things I have sworn to keep secret are signs words and grips...which you could find in 5 minutes actually. I just don't tell you them because I said I wouldn't.

However, your welcome

I am gonna have to agree total non sense thread, where is the proof because one guy makes a claim from reading pikes books


Masonic author Carl H. Claudy: "The real secrets of Masonry are never told, not even mouth to ear. For the real secret of Masonry is spoken to your heart, and from it to that of your brother [Mason]. Never the language made for tongue may speak it; it is uttered only in the language of the eye, in those manifestations of that love which a man has for his friend, which passeth all other loves, even that of woman.


Ever heard of brotherly love, that guy that wrote this www.home60515.com... is from Heterosexuals Organized for a Moral Environment so it is plain and simple to see he has nothing else better to do than to spew bull# about whatever he feels will utilize his negative thoughts, people that make movements like his "Heterosexuals Organized for a Moral Environment" make me completely sick they waste all their energy and time when they don't even realize what the key problem in their life is " and it would be Them" they have issues they can't deal with or whatever but instead of dealing with it they make movements against stuff that bothers their simple little minds and in the process lie and make themselves look like complete R-Tards the evidence is spewing all over the article the OP posted.

My first inclination upon reading this thread was to offer comments that would show the OP and the readers the blatant ignorance of this topic. I have however decided to take a different route regarding this post.

I will suffer greatly for what I am about to reveal. I will loose my place in our organization and possibly even my life. There is a chance I may have to go into the HPP (homo protection program) because of what I am about to disclose to all of you.

There is in fact a gay agenda. We have been working behind the scenes of your civilization since the very start. Militarily some of your greatest icons were in fact our operatives establishing our dominion over this world. Alexander The Great was in fact one of us! So were the emperors of Rome, China, Japan, and more! We have been laying the groundwork for our militaristic takeover since the inception of warfare! Every empire that has risen and fallen has been but a domino placed by us to gain ultimate control over this world.

We have dominated the artistic mediums since the days of cave men and will continue to do so until our fiendish goal is met. By controlling your art we control your medium of expression and insure that all that is art compels you to surrender yourselves to us!

We are the tailors of humanity. From loin clothes to today's business clothes we have insured that every human on this planet wears clothing designed by us. If I gave away the secret of why we do this I would surely be put to death so I must leave this at a vague insinuation.

We control your governments. We regulate taxes, control parliamentary procedures, and even hide some of our top operatives in positions of ultimate power within major world governments. This way when the final implementation takes place your own governments won't be powerless to help but unwilling to do so!

Every incident of homosexuals suffering violence, beatings, and death by heterosexuals have all been false flag operations perpetrated by us to give you a false sense of security. I can assure you that no one homosexual can come to harm on this world, we have orbiting satellites that will zap any would be attackers with a "lesbianic beam" turning them instantly into flannel shirts and six packs of canned beer.

We control the airline industry. We always have an operative on any airliner in the sky. How else would we insure our chemtrail generation devices were always fueled and functional?

I must clarify that we do not rape or harm children. For a child to be raped by an adult of the same sex would surely cement their heterosexuality in their brains and to accuse us of doing so is insane. Why would we undo several thousands of years of work just for that. We do recruit from outside our own ranks but not by forcing sex upon children. We use additives in baby formula and children's media outlets for that sort of activity. And yes, we do get rewards for doing so; I am actually due for a toaster oven soon for my last convert that I convinced to make the same choice as all of us and turn gay.

Do not fear us people of this world. We have always been here and will always be here. We have plucked the puppet strings of civilization for thousands and thousands of years. Soon our time to do away with the puppets and seize the reins of power for ourselves will be at hand! This was predicted by the ancient Maya as the 2012 prophecy. What many of you need to know is the Mayan were the originators of our great conspiracy so their timeline does not denote the end of the world, just the homosexuals taking control once and for all. This is beyond dispute that they were homosexuals being that they all died out. Obviously this could only have happened if the population were entirely gay.

Do not loose heart. Soon the transition shall come. It will be a peaceful one as long as the breeding stock (as we call you) does not resist.
