Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books Global Freemasonry Masonic Humanism : the Worship of Humanity The internal publications of the Masons describe in detail the humanist philosophy of the organization and their hostility to monotheism. There are countless explanations, interpretations, quotations and allegories offered on this subject in Masonic publications.

As we said at the beginning, humanism has turned its face from the Creator of humanity and accepted humans as "the highest form of being in the universe." In fact, this implies the worship of humanity. This irrational belief, that began with the Kabbalist humanists in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, continues today in modern Masonry. One of the fourteenth century's most famous humanists was Pico Della Mirandola.

His work entitled Conclusiones philosophicae, cabalisticae, et theologicae was condemned by Pope Innocent VIII in 1489 as containing than the glory of mankind. The Church saw this as a heretical idea that was nothing less than the worship of humanity. Indeed, this was a heretical idea because there is no other being to be glorified except God. Humanity is merely His creation. Today, Masons proclaim Mirandola's heretical idea of the worship of humanity much more openly.

For example, in a local Masonic booklet, it says: Primitive societies were weak and, because of this weakness, they divinized the power and phenomena around them. But Masonry divinizes only humanity.45 In The Lost Keys of Freemasonry, Manly P. Hall explains that this Masonic humanist doctrine goes back to Ancient Egypt: Man is a god in the making, and as in the mystic myths of Egypt, on the potter's wheel, he is being molded.

When his light shines out to lift and preserve all things, he receives the triple crown of godhood, and joins that throng of Master Masons, who in their robe of Blue and Gold, are seeking to dispel the darkness of night with the triple light of the Masonic Lodge.46 This is to say that according to the false belief of Masonry, human beings are gods, but only a grand master reaches the fullness of this divinity.

The way to become a grand master is to fully reject the belief in God and the fact that human beings are His servants. This fact is briefly touched on by another writer, J.D. Buck, in his book Mystic Masonry: The only personal God Freemasonry accepts is humanity in toto . . . Humanity therefore is the only personal god that there is.47 Evidently, Masonry is a kind of religion.
