GLOBAL FREEMASONRY

Masonry's positive principles are necessary and sufficient for the estab-
lishment of an advanced civilization. They are:
-The acceptance that the impersonal God (the Great Architect of the Uni-
verse) is evolution itself.
-The rejection of the belief in revelation, mysticism and empty beliefs.
-The superiority of rational humanism and labor.
The first of the three articles above entails the rejection of the exis-
tence of Allah. (Masons do not believe in Allah, but in the Great Architect
of the Universe, and the above quotation shows that with this term, they
mean evolution.) The second article rejects revelation from Allah and reli-
gious knowledge based on it. (Isindag himself defines this as "empty be-

liefs.") And the third article ignorantly exalts humanism and the humanist
concept of "labor" (as in Communism).
If we consider how entrenched these perverted ideas have become in
the world today, we can appreciate the influence of Masonry in it.
There is another important thing to take note of here: how has Ma-
sonry put into motion its mission against religion? When we look at Ma-
sonic writings, we see that they imagine they can destroy religion,
especially on the societal level, by means of mass "propaganda." Master

Mason Selami Isindag throws a lot of light on this matter in this passage
from his book:
…Even overly repressive regimes have not been successful in their at-
tempts to destroy the institution of religion. Indeed, the harsh excesses of
political methods, in their attempt to enlighten society by rescuing people
from empty religious faith and dogmas produced an adverse reaction: the
places of worship they wanted close are today fuller than ever, and the
faith and dogmas that that they outlawed have even more adherents. In an-
other lecture we pointed out that in such a matter that touches heart and
emotion, prohibition and force have no effect. The only way to bring peo-
ple from darkness to enlightenment is positive science and the principles of
logic and wisdom. If people are educated according to this way, they will
respect the humanist and positive sides of religion but save themselves
