Its so hard to know if becoming a mason is a bad idea, good idea or neutral. Half the people say they are good hearted charitable volunteers and masonry is to make good men better.
The other half say its a satanic cult and once you are in you are trapped.
How is someone supposed to make an informed decision when such wildly contradictory information is presented?
It seems like the only way to know is to join and by then it may be too late to back out.

-------------------- Favorite entheogen experiences in descending order: 1)Combo of oral DMT + smoked Bufotenine 2)Amanita (urine drank twice) 3)Mushrooms > Achuma 16"+cid(still need higher dose Achuma)> Cid (still need high dose) 4)Morning Glory-HBWR (+cumin, cinnamon aldehyde adducts) > Methyl chavicol (need more activators) 5)Salvia (need to try quid)
All readable matter in the above post is ficticious... any similarities to real life are purely coincidental. Blessing.

Its just like psychedelics or any other tool. Its all how you use it. You can make being a mason the best choice of your life, or the worst. Its all up to you.
For instance...if I call myself a Satanist but all I do is good deeds and live correctly...does that make me evil? Of course not.
Do what you want. Try it out. Fuck it.

Maybe it is comprised of good-hearted, charitable volunteers who also adhere to a Satanic cult in their private time.
Not sure those aspects are contradictory.
The thing about groups with initiations is that once you are in you are in; that is the nature of an initiation, it is a transition to a new social sphere. You go through an experience that the other members of the group have gone through, then for the rest of your life there is a group of people you hold an experience in common with. This kind of happens in the psychedelic community -- the psychedelic experience is kind of like an initiation that sets a group apart. Those with experience with more, and different, types of substances are kind of initiated into a further subset of individuals who have shared those specific experiences. The knowledge of the psychedelic experience is not really secret, though it has been marked as kind of "evil" by the mainstream.
You likely stand greater risk of disappointment over not finding anything genuinely occult in terms of knowledge than risk of getting mixed up into something heinous.

Why do you call yourself a satanist? What does that mean to you?

I dont call myself a satanist. I was just using an example that and explaining that in the end you can label yourself anything but its what you do which determines if your evil or good or whatever

Do you have to get circumsized if you become a Mason?
-------------------- A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, design a building, conn a ship, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve an equation, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.- Robert A. Heinlein Saint RedBow of the Shroomey Loomey-Patron Saint of Sandbaggin Sumbitchs

why are insisting on going into the Masons when you're so fearful of common practices?
