GLOBAL FREEMASONRY

and all manner of popular culture. Masons do not intend by this propa-
ganda to eradicate the Divine religions in a sudden revolution; they want
to achieve this over the long-term, and to initiate all people into their phi-
losophy only little by little.

An American Mason sums up this method as follows:
Freemasonry does its work silently, but it is the work of a deep river,
that silently pushes on towards the ocean. 137
High Priest J.W. Taylor, from the state of Georgia in the USA, makes
this interesting comment on the same matter:
The abandonment of old themes and the formation of new ones do not
always arise from the immediately perceptible cause which the world
assigns, but are the culmination of principles which have been work-

and propitious surroundings kindle the latent truth into life… enthusing
all with a mighty common cause and moving nations as one man to the
accomplishment of great ends. On this principle does the Institution of

Freemasonry diffuse its influence to the world of mankind. It works qui-
etly and secretly, but penetrates through all the interstices of society in
its many relations, and the recipients of its many favors are awed by its
grand achievements, but cannot tell whence it came. 138
According to Voice magazine, published by the Grand Lodge in
Chicago, "So, silently but surely and continually, it [Masonry] builds
into the great fabric of human society" 139 This "building into the great

fabric" will come about when the basics of Masonic philosophy—materi-
alism, humanism and Darwinism—are imposed on society.

those Masons who are carrying it out almost never reveal that it is being
done in the name of Masonry. They do their work under different identi-
ties, titles and in different positions of power, but they impose a com-

monly espoused philosophy they adopted through Masonry, on society.
One of Turkish Masonry's Master Masons, Halil Mulkus, explained this
