"Nothing is secret that shall not be made manifest; neither anything hid that shall not be known and come abroad." — Luke 8:17
Freemasonry — a secret society, or so we are led to believe. It is not so much a society that is secret (I mean, how can it be when most people have at least heard of it?). It is more accurate to say that it is an organization with secrets. As such, it is no different from any home, business, or institution that has conversations, or rituals behind closed doors.
The fact that a Freemason will tell you that he, or she (yes, there are lodges for women) cannot discuss what takes place at these meetings has led to the common belief that the organization has much to hide. This, in turn, has led outsiders to believe in conspiracy theories about them.
Masonic conspiracy theories are conspiracy theories involving Freemasonry. Hundreds of such theories have been described since the late 18th century. Usually, these theories fall into three distinct categories:
Political (usually involving allegations of control of government, particularly in the United States and the United Kingdom).
Religious (usually involving allegations of anti-Christian or Satanic beliefs or practices). Cultural (usually involving popular entertainment).
Many conspiracy theories have connected the Freemasons, and the Knights Templar, with worship of the devil. These ideas come solely from the church. Why? To continue to protect their vested interest. This of course is the myth of Christ. Jesus of course was a man, as human as you or I. He was deified by Saul, and from then, the church has worked tirelessly to propagate that misunderstanding. Everything that Jesus originally taught as a Pagan Grail King, has been made evil by the church. The Knight Templar, whose origins were of the Grail bloodline, were of course Pagan.
TD Pagan Baphomet. The church made this figure EVIL. A figure of Satanism. In reality, which can only be, because the church invented the devil, Baphomet is a symbol of balance between masculine and feminine. Baphomet too is a corruption of the name, Mahomet. In Arabic, the name means praise. With Baphomet's association with evil, the church was able to attack both the Templars, and Islam.
Of the claims that Freemasonry exerts control over politics, perhaps the best-known example is the New World Order theory — but there are others. These mainly involve aspects and agencies of the United States government, but actual events outside the U.S. (such as the Propaganda Due scandal in Italy) are often used to lend credence to such claims.
Another set of theories has to do with Freemasonry and religion, particularly the claim that Freemasonry deals with the “occult”. People attach all kinds of stupidity to the word, it only means, hidden, or secret. A child having a secret can be considered occult. These theories have their beginnings in the Taxil Hoax. In addition to these, there are various theories focusing on the embedding of symbols in otherwise ordinary items — street patterns, national seals, corporate logos, etc.

There are Masonic conspiracy theories concerning nearly every aspect of society. The majority of these theories are based on one or more of the following assumptions:
That Freemasonry is its own religion, requiring belief in a unique Masonic god, and that belief in this Masonic god is contrary to the teachings of various mainstream religions (usually framed as being specifically contrary to Christian belief).
That the 33rd degree of the Scottish Rite is more than an honorary degree — coupled with the belief that most Freemasons are unaware of hidden or secretive ruling bodies within their organization that govern them, conduct occult rituals, or control various positions of governmental power.
That a centralized worldwide body controls all Masonic Grand Lodges, and thus, all of Freemasonry worldwide acts in a unified manner.
My particular favourite conspiracy theory is the claim that becoming a 33rd degree Mason admits you into the Illuminati. This is utter nonsense, especially when you consider that there are just three degrees in basic Freemasonry. A simple comparison is this: if you were to obtain a B.A. from, say, Western University, you would need a minimum of 20 courses. Similarly, to obtain the 3rd degree rank of Master Mason, there are 33 courses or steps. The 33rd course is known as the Royal Arch degree. It is here that the Mason truly soars into the esoteric — or at least should.

Instead, the Mason is introduced to the rather disappointing story of Hiram Abif. There is much ado in Masonry about the differences between Scottish Rite and English Masonry. Yet, there never would have been a Scotland if not for the Irish.
In the early years of the first millennium A.D., Irish kings married into Egyptian pharaonic dynasties, thereby cementing Grail bloodlines into their Gaelic DNA. Over time, these Scots/Irish kings and queens married into the crowns of Europe, eventually becoming the Royal House of Stuart — the Stuarts, of course, having the strongest claim of descent from both Jesus and Mary Magdalene. This connection to the House of Bread is vital to understanding what happened in the 1700s.
From King David I (Dauíd mac Maíl Choluim; c. 1084 – May 24, 1153), who was Prince of the Cumbrians (1113–1124) and later King of Scotland (1124–1153), through to Bonnie Prince Charlie — Charles Edward Louis John Casimir Sylvester Severino Maria Stuart (December 20, 1720 – January 30, 1788), the elder son of James Francis Edward Stuart, grandson of James II and VII, and Stuart claimant to the throne of Great Britain after 1766 as "Charles III."
During his lifetime, he was also known as "the Young Pretender" and "the Young Chevalier." In popular memory, he is "Bonnie Prince Charlie." He is best remembered for his role in the 1745 rising; his defeat at Culloden in April 1746 effectively ended the Stuart cause. Subsequent attempts — such as a planned French invasion in 1759 — failed to materialize. His escape from Scotland after the uprising led to his portrayal as a romantic figure of heroic failure. Our Kings of Scots, because of their Grail heritage, were deeply interested in Alkhame — the art of bringing light from darkness. But not just any kind of light — the light of spiritual illumination: gold in its purest form — MFKZT, manna, star fire, white powder gold, ORMES (Orbitally Rearranged Mono-atomic Elements).

Robert I (July 11, 1274 – June 7, 1329), popularly known as Robert the Bruce (Medieval Gaelic: Roibert a Briuis; Modern Scottish Gaelic: Raibeart Brus; Norman French: Robert de Brus or Robert de Bruys; Early Scots: Robert Brus; Latin: Robertus Brussius), was King of Scots from 1306 to his death in 1329.
Robert was one of the most famous warriors of his generation and eventually led Scotland during the First War of Scottish Independence against England. He fought successfully to regain Scotland's place as an independent country and is now revered in Scotland as a national hero. Robert the Bruce gave sanctuary to the remaining Templars after French King Philip IV disbanded their organization (see our article “Everything Has a Price”) on Friday, October 13, 1307. These incredible humanists had brought the secrets of Alkhame back from the Holy Land. After their dissolution, the organization morphed into the Rosicrucian movement to protect itself.
The adherents of the Rosicrucians of the early 1600s found themselves studying esoteric subjects like this. This was pure anathema to the Puritans of the Cromwellian era, which again forced the then-modern Templars underground. The members of the Rosy Cross were not formally established as an organization, so they could not quite call themselves Freemasons — yet they were. There were recorded Freemason lodges in Scotland, notarized by Stuart kings.
