Mitchell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-21 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Early Introduction of Bogus Freemasonry in the United States of America and Texas Among Colored Masons Masonic Lodge and that it was connected with General Gages Military Regiment at Boston Massachusetts on the 0th of March 1775 and that this White Masonic Lodge in General Gages Military Regiment, they said, held a charter from the Grand Lodge of England, and replying to that unwarranted statement made and published by the leaders of the spurious Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Massachusetts, for the Grand Lodge of England has repeatedly said that they did not have any ma sonic lodge in General Gages Military Regiment when that regiment was in the United States and the question has time after time been ask ed the members of the Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Massachusetts and particularly those in Massachusetts that claim to know so much about it to give the name and the number of that masonic lodge that Prince Hall, Boston Smith and Thomas Sanderson was made master masons in that was connected with General Gages Military Regiment which was then in the United States, and these wiley fellows and Masonic ih tervators have never been able to give us any information as to what the name or even the number of this Masonic Lodge that they say was in General Gages Military Regiment. And inasmuch as no person has ever been found that could furnish any genuine information about this matter there is no doubt but the statements that have been paraded around the country about this matter were bare-faced, willful and ma licious falsehoods, and in the absence of any proof to confirm their state ments it is very safe to say that Prince Hall, Boston Smith, Thomas Sanderson and their associates simply went to bed at night and dream ed that they had been made Master Masons and got up next morning with their minds in a high state of hallucination and really thought it was so, when as a matter of fact there was nothing, nothing in it, and they simply drew on their imaginations.

Book Synopsis American Freemasonry by : Alain de Keghel
Download or read book American Freemasonry written by Alain de Keghel and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2017-10-17 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explores the American Masonic system and its strengths and failings • Examines the history of Freemasonry in the United States from the colonial era and the Revolutionary War to the rise of the Scottish branch onward • Investigates the racial split in American Freemasonry between black lodges and white and how, unlike French lodges, women are ineligible to become Masons in the U.S. • Reveals the factors that have resulted in shrinking Masonic enrollment in America and explores the revitalization work done by the Grand Lodge of California Freemasonry bears the imprint of the society in which it exists, and Freemasonry in North America is no exception. While keeping close ties to French lodges until 1913, American Freemasonry was also deeply influenced by the experiences of many early American political leaders, leading to distinctive differences from European lodges. Offering an unobstructed view of the American system and its strengths and failings, Alain de Keghel, an elder of the Grand Orient de France and, since 1999, a lifetime member of the Scottish Rite Research Society (Southern U.S. jurisdiction), examines the history of Freemasonry in the United States from the colonial era to the Revolutionary War to the rise of the Scottish branch onward. He reveals the special relationship between the French Masonic hero, the Marquis de Lafayette, and the Founding Fathers, especially George Washington and Benjamin Franklin, including French Freemasonry’s role in the American Revolution. He also explores Franklin’s Masonic membership, including how he was Elder of the lodge of the Nine Sisters in Paris. The author investigates the racial split in American Freemasonry between black lodges and white and how, unlike French lodges, women are ineligible to become Masons in the U.S. He examines how American Freemasonry has remained deeply religious across the centuries and forbids discussion of religious or social issues in its lodges, unlike some branches of French Freemasonry, which removed belief in God as a prerequisite for membership in 1877 and whose lodges operate in some respects as philosophical debating societies. Revealing the factors that have resulted in shrinking Masonic enrollment in America, the author explores the revitalization work done by the Grand Lodge of California and sounds the call to make Freemasonry and its principles relevant to America once again.

Book Synopsis The Secret Founding of America by : Nicholas Hagger
Download or read book The Secret Founding of America written by Nicholas Hagger and published by Watkins Media Limited. This book was released on 2016-11-15 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The widely accepted story of the founding of America is that The Mayflower delivered the first settlers from Plymouth to the New World in 1620. Yet in reality, the Jamestown settlers had already become the first English-speaking outpost thirteen years earlier in 1607. The Secret Founding of America introduces these two groups of founders - the Planting Fathers, who established the earliest settlements along essentially Christian lines, and the Founding Fathers, who unified the colonies with the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution - and it argues that the new nation, conceived in liberty, was the Freemasons' first step towards a new world order. Drawing on original findings and an in-depth understanding of the political and philosophical realities of the time, historian Nicholas Hagger charts the connections between Gosnold and Smith, Templars and Jacobites, and secret societies and libertarian ideals. He also explains how the influence of German Illuminati worked on the constructors of the new republic, and shows the hand of Freemasonry at work at every turning point in America's history, from Civil War to today's global struggles for democracy.
Book Synopsis Islam and the Americas by : Aisha Khan
Download or read book Islam and the Americas written by Aisha Khan and published by University Press of Florida. This book was released on 2017-01-10 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A tour de force that underwrites and shifts the petrified image of Islam disseminated by mainstream media."--Walter D. Mignolo, author of The Darker Side of Western Modernity "Gives us an entirely different picture of Muslims in the Americas than can be found in the established literature. A complex glimpse of the rich diversity and historical depth of Muslim presence in the Caribbean and Latin America."--Katherine Pratt Ewing, editor of Being and Belonging: Muslim Communities in the United States since 9/11 "Finally a broad-ranging comparative work exploring the roots of Islam in the Americas! Drawing upon fresh historical and ethnographic research, this book asks important questions about the politics of culture and globalization of religion in the modern world."--Keith E. McNeal, author of Trance and Modernity in the Southern Caribbean In case studies that include the Caribbean, Latin America, and the United States, the contributors to this interdisciplinary volume trace the establishment of Islam in the Americas over the past three centuries. They simultaneously explore Muslims’ lived experiences and examine the ways Islam has been shaped in the "Muslim minority" societies in the New World, including the Gilded Age’s fascination with Orientalism, the gendered interpretations of doctrine among Muslim immigrants and local converts, the embrace of Islam by African American activist-intellectuals like Malcolm X, and the ways transnational hip hop artists re-create and reimagine Muslim identities. Together, these essays challenge the typical view of Islam as timeless, predictable, and opposed to Western worldviews and value systems, showing how this religious tradition continually engages with local and global issues of culture, gender, class, and race.

Book Synopsis A Spurious State of Confusion by : Charles M. Harper, Sr.
Download or read book A Spurious State of Confusion written by Charles M. Harper, Sr. and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-07-08 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To mainstream society, the fraternity of Freemasons is still often misunderstood even after the purpose of its existence has been publically known since the transition of the Freemasons from the operative science to the speculative in the early 16th century. Though enlightenment of the individual is the purpose of Freemasonry through the conveyance of certain philosophical truths through masonic ritual, discussions within the trust of Brotherhood, all guided by the moral law followed by each individual Mason, there lies immediately outside the doors of a regularly constituted Lodge an undermining existence of fraud, deception, and abuse. It knocks from the outside, unworthy to enter and instead of placing itself in a proper manner to enter, this force takes the shape of a leech. It lies on the surface of Freemasonry, hidden often in plain sight, and attempts to perpetuate its existence from the lifeblood of the Fraternity, its fellowship, its enlightenment, and its benevolence towards other members that has a residual positive effect on humanity. There are many reasons that spuriously practiced Freemasonry exists. The elements that are found in every civilization, in every culture and subculture, are those features that have spurned the existence of this fraud to which hundreds of men around the world, more specifically in the United States, fall victim to each month, and have since the late 1800's. Ego, pride, denial, and mistrust, the necessary assistants to the growth of negative empowerment of the individual, is the engine that inspires the pursuit to own the representation of an honorable status, even if it means the desired attributes must be stolen rather than earned. Cultural isolation as a product of the inability to investigate and appreciate the differences between various cultures due to either prejudicial beliefs or a fear of understanding the previously unknown, has perpetuated denial of universally accepted ancient truths and the modern laws that protect the integrity of the institution. Misapplications and misunderstandings of masonic terms that describe aspects regarding the application of inclusion or exclusion, also contribute to the mass confusion as to who are actually legal Freemasons, and who are fraudulent Freemasons. It becomes necessary to examine from a 21st century perspective in an effort to garner proper context, using both qualitative and quantitative research, to answer many questions that are needed to protect the public from becoming victims of this unregulated practices presuming itself to be legal Freemasonry, and to gain an updated universal understanding for members within the Fraternity. Exactly what defines a mason, lodge or grand lodge to be spurious? How does the term spurious, or bogus, relate to the definition of a clandestine mason, ritually and organizationally? What is irregular and regular Freemasonry? What are the impacts of unregulated Masonic practices presenting itself as lawfully practiced Freemasonry both culturally and financially? What laws have existed nationally and internationally, and what laws still need to be pursued and established, to protect the integrity of the Fraternity for future generations to enjoy? In this book, we will explore all of these questions from the most factual stance, disseminating fact from fiction, and logically drawn conclusions with supported evidence from emotionally based conclusions drawn from associative knowledge. We will explore the research of many respected Masonic scholars and establish from whence they have brought the Fraternity, to where Masons can collectively head to ensure the integrity of the institution will morally progress into infinity.
