NY Lodge right here. Meet once a month for lodge meeting, then there's always events n shit organized.. It's awesome for networking, meeting dudes from all walks of life and different stories and just shooting the shit. I met Bruce's the fucking wanker from Braveheart, 32nd descendant or something.. when we went up to the lodge in Boston... Great fucking guy. Old money...

Freemasonry is the world's oldest and largest fraternity, and it's fun as fuck when you can avoid business meetings. If it's true that you are the average of the 5 people you hang out with the most, then here's a great chance to raise your average.

Here's my standard 'elevator pitch', which I trot out when people ask what we're about:

We're a centuries old fraternal order, who exist to improve our own characters ('we make good men better' is one of our slogans), and through that improve our communities. Along the way, we do a lot of charity (forex: Shriner's free hospitals for crippled children), and have a lot of cool and private ceremonies using the construction of King Solomon's Temple as an allegorical base for teaching Enlightenment and Stoic ideals. (yes, we really do have secret handshakes).

We have several million Brothers world wide, but no central organization. Many prominent men from every walk of life have been members, including over a dozen US presidents. Regular Masonry is open to adult men of good character who are not atheists - we require a belief in some form of 'higher power', but aren't fussy about what. As a rule, we don't recruit; we want a potential member to make the first approach of his own free will.

If you're curious, drop by our main hangout on reddit, /r/freemasonry. You'll find a lot of friendly folk there. If you prefer a book, for North Americans I recommend (seriously, I'm not trolling) "Freemasons for Dummies" by Christopher Hodapp.

No, and I have no desire to be a part of a group-think cult for sheep. I’d do some serious research before joining any of these cults. And that’s what they are. Many of today’s problems are the end result of these cults. They have a lust for power.
