In the Masonic Handbook page 183 to 184 we read that:

"Whenever you see the grand hailing sign... be sure not to bring the Mason guilty....if you cheat or wrong any other.. the government even, Masonry cannot and will not touch you... Conceal the crimes of your brother Masons.. shield him. Prevaricate, don't tell the whole truth in this case, keep his secrets, forget the most important points. It may be perjury to do this, it is true, but you're keeping your obligations, and remember if you live up to your obligation strictly, you'll be free from sin"

These Masons seem a nice bunch of chaps, good to see them all sticking up for each other.

Buzzer, i'm just perusing through my masonic handbook, and 183/184 is all about investiture of officers.

You must have the wrong edition here's some more

"When a brother reveals any of our great secrets; whenever, for instance, he tells anything about Boaz, or Tubalcain, or Jachin, or that awful Mah-hah-bone, or even whenever a minister prays in the name of Christ in any of our assemblies, you must always hold yourself in readiness, if called upon, to cut his throat from ear to ear, pull out his tongue by the roots, and bury his body at the bottom of some lake or pond. Of course, all this must be done in secret, as it was in the case of that notorious man Morgan, for both law and civilization are opposed to such barbarous crimes, but then, you know you must live up to your obligation, and so long as you have sworn to do it, by being very strict and obedient in the matter, you'll be free from sin."

Mmmmm,

Rolf Harris AO, CBE. Freemason.

Very friendly with the royals.

Portraits of the queen etc.

I didn't mention Harris. I do know that his grandfather was in The Loyal Cambrian Lodge though.

I think the UK, at the very least, should do what the Portuguese set out to do last year.

Portuguese Prime Minister "Pedro Passos Coelho ", gave the Ministry of Internal Administration (equivalent to MSW) guidelines for the obligations of persons holding senior positions in government to disclose whether they belong to Masonic lodges.

Informed the Lisbon daily "Diario de Noticias', guidance on the validation link politics with Freemasonry, where included, in the government report on the problem supposed Ongoing. The document contained a suspicion against a lot of people from the former management of the Portuguese secret police and Ongoing media concern about attempts to control other media.

Portuguese newspaper reminds even the prime minister on Wednesday denied that the Passos Coelho, would require persons holding high position agency to disclose, whether they belong to Masonic lodges.

According to "Diario de Noticias", passing by the Prime Minister the matter to the ministry of municipal affairs, is de facto an investigation of alleged links with representatives of the Portuguese freemasonry intelligence services of the country, as well as leading politicians, including MPs to parliament.

In August 2011 newspaper "Publico", revealed that some journalists were his editors to inspection by the Portuguese secret service in the days of Labour governments. Information for agents to access mailboxes and SMS editorial staff representative confirmed the mobile operator.

Established in the autumn of last year showed a parliamentary committee in early January, the relationship between the Portuguese Freemasonry, mainly Mozart49 lodge, and the first authorities, intelligence services and Ongoing management, in which some former significant forces officers found employment.

- There is evidence that the Portuguese Freemasonry still has a strong influence in the security services - said on Tuesday in parliament deputy of the ruling Social Democratic Party, Teresa Leal Coelho.

In January, membership in Masonic lodges, confirmed the legislative heads of the biggest clubs in Portugal, Luis Montenegro with the Social Democratic Party and Carlos Zorrinho of the opposition Socialist Party.





I'm sure the general view can be obtained from that translation.

Pointless, Buzzer. If they WERE Masons, they would simply deny it, whether under oath or not. I suppose best way would be to blow up the Lodge and kill all those who try to scurry away!

Really  !!What lodge was he raised in.?

this thread never mind the court case is going to take a bit of steering ,choppy waters ahead

seatbelts on

I'am a freemason,(Nothing special in that) but never took any notice if Mccann was or is a freemason, you seem to know more than me, and as i've just asked, which Lodge was he raised in.?

If he is a frequenter of the Rothley Lodge, that doesn't mean he's a freemason, we've had many people come to our lodge as visitors, but they have to leave the room whenever anything masonic takes place, as for the flowers left by the grand temple, that means nothing very much,many masons i've met are kind and generous people, freemasons do lots of good and give plenty to non masonic charities..
However,He may well be a freemason, i dont know, but what i do believe is that he comes across as an odious character who i would not trust, and i believe there are many unanswered questions that he,his wife and the rest of the Tapas group are keeping to themselves...I think its a case of Doctors closing shop....

...you know the Crimewatch programme...the with the "new" evidence, the EFITS.....the one with the big build up...the one that the Mccanns would hope would kickstart the search and wanted as much publicity as possible etc,etc etc.....

well guess the country that it WASNT shown in.....the country where you would have thought it would be most salient to show it in...you know...the country where all the events took place....yep PORTUGAL.

UTTERLY BAFFLING.

that link says it all, even the book seller admits the ineptness of the police in the crucial initial stages were deeply flawed and ruined what ever chance there was of finding evidence of an abduction, instead the desperation continues and now gerry mccann is a a mason

Mitchell is absolutely shameless - citing these cases as examples of little blonde girls being abducted. Where

Mitchell is on a gravy  train

AyersRock Gerry McCann is a freemason and Madeleine’s Fund: Leaving No Stone Unturned Limited has their registered office at one of Britain’s largest law firms to represent Freemasons and Freemasonic charities. Ed Smethurst is one of the directors of the Madeleine Fund and is a long time Freemason, you don't have to be a top detective to find these things out. Doubt me all you want but Gerry McCann is a freemason.

Has he been certified as a member?
