This is not for religious purposes. I am simply curious. For parents, or for adults who know about their early childhood, did you/your child, before or if you began to teach them about any sort of religion or spirituality, come up with his/her own idea of spirituality, god, etc.? Or did they have to be instructed in it?

I see faith as being a belief that does not rest on logical proof or material evidence and spirituality as, well, I think Sam Harris sums it up pretty well: “‘Spirituality’ or “mysticism” (both words are pretty terrible, but there are no good alternatives in English) refers to any process of introspection by which a person can come to realize that the feeling he calls “I” is a cognitive illusion. The core truth of mysticism is this: It is possible to experience the world without feeling like a separate “self” in the usual sense. Such a change in the character of one’s experience need not become the basis for making unsupportable claims about the nature of the universe, however.”

I really want to know what do freemasons do beside charitable activities and if there is any connection with Zionists. There is a lot of rumors going on regarding their “secret” foundation and ritual acts.
.
On there websites, they describe themselves as peace keeping and education promoting philantropists.
.
Who are they really and if they do what they say, can I join them? I am like-minded.

This site is supposed to be about ANSWERS, not opinions. Religion is based solely on opinion, no answers or facts. So was it a mistake for Y!A to include an R & S section, since there can be no definitive answers when it comes to Religion and Spirituality?

Are Freemasons currently on a customer relations drive, particularly on the internet, to challenge anything that could be percieved as bad publicity or detrimental to the non masonic world view of masonry. Is the practice of mobing part of your crafts homework, and how are all masons so knowledgable and certain about their secret society when i doubt if they have recieved all of the secrets?
