Yes it is organizations like that, where free thinking is possible behind closed doors. Where the powerful have no power. In masonry every man is on
the level. From the student just starting out in life, to the aging Judge closing his books for a final time. From police to construction workers,
to attourneys to senators.
In the lodge you meet on the level, the NWO, can not survive in a free thinking society. Free thinking means equality. And Fraternities, some are
started just for fun, but all allow free thinking.
The contrary of a Fraternity would be a Cult, where one man thinks for you and you listen because you "think" you agree, or you are afraid not to.
(KKK and Nazism respectively)
Anything intollerant is mind-control, both for the slave, and the master.
When you are intollerant you can't control your own actions, even if you are the Emperor of the World, if you have no tollerance, you are a slave to
your emotions.
One could argue this is from where the idea of a Devil came from. God is man who reasons, the Devil is man who feels.
And if you study fraternities (sororities too I suppose) you'll see when men of like mind join together, they discuss in harmony.
Some Fraternities's like mind is to party. And some is to hate.
Masonry's is to be tollerant, and moral, and charitable.
I can't speak for KofC but I feel they are the same, only for Catholic Men.
And there are many scholarly Fraternities, where the people there have a like mind to further themselves in schools, and knowledge.
And then you have Skull and Bones, where their like mind is to further themselves and see that they all become gods among men.
There is a wide range of what Fraternities do.
But in the end the only people who can stop an "NWO" is a people who can be tollerant, and thoughtful, away from prying eyes.
And so long as Freemasonry exists strongly in a nation, that nation can not fall into a true Police State, because their lodges will be free of these
rules. And history has already proven that Masonry urges the best in men, not the worst. (See George Washington, Ben Franklin, John Hancock, amongs
thousands of others ranging from scholars like Elias Ashmole to simple citizens who protest evil with blue flowers, such as German Masons in Nazi
Germany).
Aside from this there's always the speculation that Freemasons secretly are behind the "NWO" or are devil worshipers or some such thing.
I know I don't drink baby blood and I certainly don't decide who the future Congress and President will be.
But there will always be speculation against any society that hides themselves, or in Masonry's case, does not publicize themselves. In masonry's
case, my signature rings true. Some of the most accurate Masonic history has been written by people who at the time were not masons
But helen if you're in Australia, then you should look into what Masons do for you there
I'm sure they do more then you think.
And in a final note. Hip-hop is preposterous, sure I think they too disagree with "Big Brother" but I'd sooner sell my freedom then my soul.
