The Masons organization is a super powerful entity worth discussing. I think it would be good to shed some light on it and talk about all things including whaterver is good or bad about it..I found this post in the news today.
Rich Armenians wanted to become masons but were not accepted - Ruben Gevorgyants
10:37 / 26.07.2013
Chairman of the Union of Cinematographers, film director Ruben
Gevorgyants is one of the unique peoples who voices that he is a mason
and is even proud of it.
- Mr Gevorgyants, you are the participant-documentary of the Karabakh
war. How can a nationalist be a mason?
- You do not know what masonry movement is. A mason must be a nationalist.
- It is an establishment created by xxxs.
- Masons had nothing to do with xxxs. Now xxxs, Arabs, peoples of many
other nationalities are among them.
- A lot is being kept secret about masons. What ideology do you have?
Which is your mission?
- There are two important things - first you should be a believer and
act in a way to do good to your own country. You should not
necessarily be a nationalist. Our establishment has party members as
well. This establishment is first of all a harmony, there must not be
extremist moods. I am a nationalist but I am not an extremist. Masonry
is brotherhood. Is there more important thing than the brotherhood?
The bad opinion about the movement has been formed by Russia security
bodies.
- How can strange and sometimes enemy nationalities be brothers? For
instance we know about existence of powerful Turkish masonry lodge.
- Strangers may too be brothers. Yes, there is a masonry lodge in
Turkey and we force them to recognize the Armenian Genocide. By the
way mason Turks recognize it. The time will come when they will force
their country to acknowledge it.
- What does masonry give to our country?
- A lot. If more Armenians had become masons for instance 70 years ago
many things could have been prevented. We have done a lot in Armenia.
For instance we brought huge buses from France. There are schools
funded by us, we pay the tuition fee of a number of students. Many
think that it is a party or if they become masons it will be their
entrance visa to the USA. But it is first of all a spiritual value.
- How a person may become mason?
- If a person wants to become member of our establishment he/she
passes an exam. We check his/her incomes for two years, the relations
between him/her and others. Many rich Armenians wanted to become
members of our establishment but none of them was accepted as clean
people must become masons.
- If it is such a good establishment, why do many people hate it or
are afraid of it? Why do masons hide that they are members of lodge?
- Many are afraid as they do not know, do not understand. My wife is
afraid too. We are a powerful establishment. The hostility against it
was formed in 20th century by tyrants. The latter are afraid of
masons. In the USA all have temples. There will be one in Armenia as
well. Now we do not have necessary funds and are not going to ask from
the general establishment. Leaders of countries head the
establishment. 70% of presidents of different countries are masons.
- When and how have you decided to become a mason?
- Thirty years ago I was studying masonry as there was a great
anti-mason literature in the Soviet Union. There was a fight against
them. In tyrant countries there cannot be masonry. Though I am against
democracy, I am for dictatorship - dictatorship of law.
