Apparently my dad was one, or so he claimed. I didn't really believe or cared though.

What would you like to know?

I work for a Masonic charity in Australia, apart from planning world domination we also run aged care facilities and provide grants to people in need.

Freemasons run the country the Simpsons told me so.

my dog's name is Mason, who shall I say is calling?

 

[Margaret]

Tell me about the numbers Mason! MASON. THE NUMBERS!!!

 

[Lagmeister]

Nothing more than a glorified social club with a few odd traditions, to be honest in the UK at least they do a lot of good charity work, in yanksville they are a bit more extreme but still not the forefront of the new world order

 

[Begbie]

I heard you get cheap pints in the clubs????

Also a lot of emergency services are members.

They have funny signs and do looks of winking, can’t say more than that.

It's a "betterment" of mankind sort of thing, it's not the worst thing in the world.

What's that group called who are meant to actually rule the world? Something Illuminati or other?

Freemason in 'I'll tell you all our dirty little secrets' shocker. Won't that get you hung, drawn and quartered or some other nonsense that is outlined in you joining rituals?

In Western Scotland, Freemasonry and the Orange Order go hand in hand so you'll forgive me if I look on your organisation with a skeptical eye.

I always thought it asa a mix of an old fashioned "linked in" and a soacial club.

Ie Bob the freemason runs a construction company and needs some extra plumbers so asks in the club and gets introduced to dave who happens to be a plumbing contractor and is also a member they talk about the job other members recommend him and bob contracts him if he's suitable sort of thing.

I thought Freemasons were unemployed brickies? lol

It's definitely that kind of club.

Not at all - we're not a secret organisation, we're an organisation with secrets.

I never said I'd tell the secrets, simply that I'd answer questions.

In Western Scotland, Freemasonry and the Orange Order go hand in hand so you'll forgive me if I look on your organisation with a skeptical eye.

Being a mainly protestant political order - the Orange order is totally unconnected with Free masonry - Freemasonry does not adhere to any political organisationa, other than supporting the current correctly elected government of the moment and Freemasonry accepts members from all faiths.

Of course, it's quite likely that a lot of members of the Orange Order are also Freemasons but to state they are linked is like saying Freemasonry is a Christian organisation just because it has a lot of Christians as members.
