Free Masons are a luciferian cult.
Fraternities are just collective buffoonery

A Christian is not allowed to take secret oaths. If you have taken a secret oath by repeating it have you committed idolatry?

Oaths
33 “Again you have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform to the Lord what you have sworn.’ 34 But I say to you, Do not take an oath at all, either by heaven, for it is the throne of God, 35 or by the earth, for it is his footstool, or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. 36 And do not take an oath by your head, for you cannot make one hair white or black. 37 Let what you say be simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’; anything more than this comes from evil.[a]
Matthew 5:33-37 ESV

But most of all, my brothers and sisters, never take an oath, by heaven or earth or anything else. Just say a simple yes or no, so that you will not sin and be condemned. James 5:12 NLT

I took an oath to defend the Constitution when I joined the Navy.

I took an oath to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth in court.

I took an oath to be a loyal brother and friend to my fraternity brothers.

Jesus has always been my Lord and Savior and continues to be so.

Buffoonery definitely exists within the fraternity world and my buffoon fraternity was no different. Yet be that as it may, my fraternity raised thousands of dollars to help local charities, particularly charities that assisted children with medical ailments, and it had nothing to do with legalized marijuana.
