I thought that Masons simply had to believe in a Supreme Being?Keith B wrote:I can tell you that some of these men were NOT atheists. Atheism is a non-belief in God. Many people who want to try and portray Washington, Lincoln, and Franklin as atheists only do so in the fact that they rarely or never mentioned Jesus in any of their writings. However, you will find they frequently mention God. Neither did most other people of their time. So, while they may not have been followers of or espoused the mainstream Christan following of Jesus, they in fact DID believe in God. One example for is that Washington and Franklin were Masons, and I can guarantee you they would not have been members if they didn't believe.LOLWUT wrote:Think before you speak, sir. Like any group, and/or religion there are good & bad that come out of each. I find it funny you don't bring up any of the Deist founding fathers of ours.The Annoyed Man wrote: I know exactly how to fix this, but atheists would have a problem with it, and it is probably unconstitutional anyway. As John Adams said, “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” So when you ban religion from the public square, and when you assign depravity as a constitutional right, and when you enable government to usurp the personal responsibilities of the individual, this is what you get.
