Thank you for listening to our podcast!

 I had some hesitation about writing this one as Masons do not generally discuss politics.

 Then, I decided that Masons SHOULD affect change when affecting change hinges upon matters of Justice or Fairness.

 Now, having stated that, I would never tell anyone HOW to vote (i.e. which political party to support) because, as a political science student I do understand that persons feel strongly about which side administers fairness and justice in the best manner, and as a Mason, I generally prohibit myself from discussing items along party lines and I attempt to treat my daily conversations regarding politics and religion as if I am in Lodge...because I AM in Lodge as the Universe is every Mason's Lodge room.

 I ramble.

 Here is the text from Albert Pike's Magnum Opus I read, no additions or paraphrasing:

   " Be faithful to your country, and prefer its dignity and honor to any degree of popularity and honor for yourself, consulting its interest rather than your own, and rather than the pleasured gratification of the people, which is often at variance to their own welfare."

 From Magnum Opus by Albert Pike (from the 4th degree (Secret Master) lecture).

  Thank you again for listening to this podcast, I hope it has help you in some way.

Society is Your Lodge Room

  Greetings Everyone and welcome to the Universal Freemason Research Society blog.  We are stepping away from Facebook as that social media site tended to make writing anything with “meat on the bones” less likely from a research perspective.     We will use this site mainly and we hope you enjoy the format and take away something meaningful when you visit this site.     Today, let us consider our effects on society as we lead a Masonic life.     If we dig deep into our Masonic rituals and especially our initiation into our lodge, we will find many lessons to help us along through our daily lives with an understanding and strength that most in society may not possess or understand.   I would encourage my fellow masons to always teach these lessons to those who are not members of a lodge, you can do so without revealing words and grips and signs that we keep in the lodge room, and I would add that we SHOULD be doing so. ...

Universal Freemason Podcast Episode One What IS Universal Freemasonry, Anyway?

Universal Freemason Podcast Episode 1   Welcome to Episode One. This is the premier episode where, frankly, I was uncertain if there would be any interest at all in this podcast so I wanted to start slowly and just explain what Universal Freemason Research Society is to begin with. We are a non-profit educational organization formed to bring Masonic philosophies to the masses as a means to help improve society. There is nothing to join, everything we do is free to the public. We are not a masonic lodge nor do we advertise for any masonic lodge or masonic order. We encourage ALL masons to recognize each other and we encourage everyone to live a masonic life. We often read from books by authors such as Albert Pike, Albert G. Mackey and Manly P. Hall and we encourage the listener to conduct their own studies into masonic philosophies and to form their own opinions. Please click on the link above to enjoy the podcast!
