Aren't you guys supposed to be hush-hush?

Almost all of my male relatives are, also former work partners and employees.

Me, no.

Couldn't do one of the "O"s.

Always been intrigued but don't know enough to have the courage to walk into a temple (if that's what it is called).

Can anyone shed some light as to what is required to join or duties expected from members?

I am not really sure what masons are or what they represent. This conversation has been brought up with my friends and they make it seem like its frowned upon but who am I to judge since i don't know anything about the lifestyle.

There has always been speculation that the rapper Jay-Z is a Mason.

That all depends on how the Pope feels that day....we've been cast out and taken back almost a dozen times. I'm Catholic and I have no fear of excommunication or damnation.....I live a "good" life for the most part.

Don't want to get into a religious debate because this is not the place for it, and is against the rules here, but if you claim to be a catholic, you need to read this:
http://www.consecration.com/default.aspx?id=46
http://www.cuf.org/faithfacts/details_view.asp?ffID=103
And read this book:
http://www.marianland.com/tanfreemas...tbemasons.html
I'm done.

I read your links and my only comments are that whoever wrote those had bad info about Freemasonry. They are FULL of false statements about Masonry.

Well, I am a mason, you are quoting a 3rd party. But, we got it, you don't like masonry. No point in getting into an argument, your mind is made up.
