GLOBAL FREEMASONRY

G. E. Lessing and E. Renan. The Masons wanted to realize the dream of these two atheist
writers in eradicating religion from the face of the earth.

to spread this faith of ours among people and to educate the people in
positive science. The words of Ernest Renan are very important: "If the
people are educated and enlightened by positive science and reason, the
vain beliefs of religion will collapse by themselves." Lessing's words
support this view: "If human beings are educated and enlightened by
positive science and reason, one day there will be no need for reli-
gion." 56
This is Masonry's ultimate goal. They want to destroy religion com-

pletely, and establish a humanist world based on the "sacredness" of hu-
manity. That is, they want to establish a new order of ignorance, in which
people reject Allah Who created them, and consider themselves Divine…
This goal is the purpose for the existence of Masonry. In the Masonic mag-
azine called Ayna (Mirror), this is called a "Temple of Ideas":
Modern Masons have changed the goal of the old Masons to build a

physical temple into the idea of building a "Temple of Ideas." The con-
struction of a Temple of Ideas will be possible when Masonic princi-
ples and virtues are established and such wise people increase on the
earth. 57
