Freemasons
Evangelical and Fundamentalist Christians spew hatred at Freemason because they teach a doctrine of freedom oh thought, religion, and politics, and for zealots that is a threat.
DUH:
Duh!!
The Republican party (nee the party of right-wing reactionaries) waged a decades-long branding operation to make "liberal" a dirty word, in part by making it synonymous with "godless heathen" or some such?
What a perceptive statement.
Reagan? "duMbya?" Rove? Cheney? They don't attend church regularly because their security might disrupt the services. BULL! Simply put they are all non-religionists vote panderers.
The old chestnut that "Actions speak louder than words" has been totally turned on its head here in the good, whoops no longer are we good, so we will make it bad, in the bad, old U S of A. Today words speak totally! Actions mean nothing!!
Originate a big lie and it immediately becomes the unvarnished truth.
And, by the way, Where did the hatred about the Freemasons by ... of LA come from? What sort of offal is that?
Freemasons????

George W. Bush is a freemason, along with many of his Republican friends, yet no one has ever coplained about him being ''anti-religious'', although I would be he sure is."
Are you kidding me? In order to become a Freemason, you must take an oath stating that you believe in "belief in a Supreme Being".
I am not a Freemason, but I am acutely aware of them because I am an Atheist.
Get your facts straight before you post.
Freemasons?
WTF? That' about the most absurd tinfoil thing I've heard since the 9/11 Truthers started their march toward madness.
Freemasons out of left field
The spectre from the 1920s and 30s rears its intolerant head again. It must have been that Dan Brown book on some artist's code that resurrected that sort of idiocy about the "freemasons."
My dad was a Mason, but it was far from being free; it cost him a bundle! But they did a nice bit at his funeral to supplement the Baptist rites!
Ban Freemasons from politics
