There's news about the return of the Satan’s Choice MC in Oshawa but before I comment on that I'd like to make a clarification. Dan Dicks did another hit piece on Freemasonry and I'm going to have to say I respectfully disagree.
We can do that you know. Disagree respectfully. I disagree with Sheryl Crow about gun control but that doesn't mean I'm going to cancel her. There are many other things I agree with her on and she is a good person.
Likewise Dan Dicks is a good person. He's pretty much the only other independent media outlet out there. Rebel News spins for Mossad and True North spins for Stephen Harper. Dan Dicks supported Trump like I did but he's not afraid to speak out when Trump does something ridiculous.
The topic in question is about how Trump is resurrecting the statue of Albert Pike that was torn down during the George Floyd riots. Pike was a Confederate General. In my opinion the primary fact is that he was a Confederate General during the American civil war. He fought for slavery not against it. He also happened to be a Freemason.
Dan Dick's hit piece misses the point and focuses exclusively on Freemasonry, not the fact that he was a Confederate General.
Before I get into his comments on Freemasonry or more specifically Albert Pike's own interpretation of Freemasonry, I'd like to point out the obvious. Freemasons, just like Catholics, Protestants and every other religion have the freedom to choose. During World War I and II there were Christians on both sides of the conflict. That's one of the reasons Jehovah's witnesses don't go to war. They don't want to go to war with members of their own religion. Likewise in the American civil war, there were Freemasons on both sides of the conflict.
A lot of conspiracy theorists love to hate on the Masons because they're such an easy target. Shriners are Freemasons. You know, those old guys at the circus who volunteer their time and raise money for Children's Hospitals.
George Washington and Ben Franklin were Freemasons as were most of the founding fathers. Freemasons support freedom. My grandfather was a Freemason and so was I.
I became a Master Mason in Surrey and a Royal Arch Mason in Langley. I never made it to the highest degree in the Scottish or York rite but I do have a first hand knowledge of the masonic rituals. All these expert haters don't. I have since fallen behind in dues and am no longer a member in good standing.
Yet I have kept my Masonic oaths and and I stand by the order because it teaches men to be good and to do good. Dan Dicks did quote from a book written by Albert Pike so Dan's comments have more credibility than the other haters who just quote other haters. However, if a Christian writes a book about Christianity, that Christian is not the author of Christianity.
If a Christian writes a book about Christianity they are simply expressing their opinion about their interpretation of Christianity. Likewise Albert Pike is not the author of Freemasonry. Any books he has written about the subject simply contain his interpretation of the ritual which was created long before him.
Let's remember that Freemasons make an oath to keep their sacred rituals secret. So no member in good standing is going to write a book about the Masonic rituals. Whenever a member in good standing speaks about the rituals they are expressing their opinion about their interpretation of the rituals.
Dan thinks because he's read this book about one man's interpretation of the rituals he knows everything about Freemasonry without every having been through any of the rituals. Does he know the name of the highest degree in the York rite of Freemasonry? That is not Satanism.
We all know the Masonic symbol. A square and a compass with the letter G in the middle. G stands for God not Lucifer. That is what the symbol means to me and that is what the symbol meant to my grandfather. It's like telling a Christian their cross represents Satan. No it doesn't. It represents God.
Masonry comes from Solomon's Temple so according to Dan Dicks Solomon's temple worshiped the Devil. That is false.
Dan starts of with a rather deceptive logical progression. He quotes a line in the book that states Freemasons search after the light. Now who is the light of the world? The New Testament states that Jesus is the light of the world. Dan Dicks admits that Freemasons state that God is the light.
Then he jumps to a different section of the book that refers to Lucifer as the light bearer. The son of the morning. The Bible also says Lucifer was the light bearer and referred to him as the son of the morning. That doesn't mean the Bible worships the Devil. The Bible is talking about him historically.
At one time Lucifer was an angel of light BUT HE FELL and became an angel of darkness. That's when his name became Satan. I'm not going to hate and I'm not going to argue about it. I'm just going to respectfully disagree.
George Washington and Ben Franklin were Freemasons. They did not worship Lucifer. They said the same things about Mormons. They claim Mormons worship the Devil. That is ridiculous. I researched ritual magic and Satanism when I studied religion. Aleister Crowley was a Satanist high priest. Satanism states "Do what though wilt shall be the whole of the law." Satanism opposes all laws and all morals. God promotes good. Satan does not. Satan lies and deceives.
When Jesus was on earth they said he was sent from the Devil. That was false. Jesus told his apostles if they have called Master of the house Beelzebub, how much more shall they call them of his household. Meaning if they said Jesus was sent from the Devil, they'd say the same thing about his followers. I stand as a witness that Mormons and Masons are not Satanists. This Masonic hate is a distraction from the truth.
While we're on the subject, take a look at the back of the American dollar bill. It has the all seeing eye on it which became the back of the Great Seal of the United States in 1776. That is a Masonic symbol and represents the all seeing eye of God. It doesn't represent Satan or Lucifer. To claim it does would be false. In fact, it would be a malicious lie.
The motto in Latin above the eye on the dollar bill means "He has approved out undertakings." He refers to God not Satan. I believe the founding fathers were inspired by God. So this is a Masonic symbol. George Washington and many of the founding fathers were Freemasons. None of them worshiped Lucifer. They all worshiped God and had faith in him.
The motto in Latin below the eye means a new order of the ages. Satan has twisted that motto in the last days for his alternate plan into New World Order. The new order of the ages is opposite to the UN's New World Order. The UN is trying to replace that motto with their Globalist Agenda.
Before Lucifer fell, when he was the morning star, he was the light bearer but God is the light, not Lucifer.
