Masonry and Politics

Masonry, or Freemasonry, is a fraternal organization that emphasizes moral development, brotherhood, and charitable work through rituals and symbols. Politics involves the governance and decision-making processes within a society or organization. Historically, Freemasonry has often promoted principles like liberty, equality, and fraternity, which can influence members’ views on governance and social issues. While Freemasons typically maintain political neutrality in public, their shared values and networks can shape attitudes toward leadership, morality, and civic responsibility. Thus, Masonry and politics intersect through the organization’s ideals, potentially influencing members’ perspectives on governance and societal progress.
