  1. Tik, I'll explain Freemasonry below, since I am one. Freemasonry, in 1717, switched from being a labor union and college/guild to a fraternity set up to fund a pension for the Masons that lost work, in London, after the rebuilding from the fire in 1666 wound down. They allowed people to join from the Royal Society, who were early academics, and from there, they began studying the world's religions (comparative religion). They looked at Hermeticism, because of alchemy, especially the early chemists, to see if the great panacea could actually be made, and to see if gold could be made from lead, etc. What they found hidden was where the alchemists looked at procreation, and based early chemistry on that (the mixing of two things to make one). Early physicians from the RS, who were members, were also involved. Freemasonry, as a guild and college, was started in Rome by Constantine, and they built the castles, etc., in Britain, starting in the ninth century. It was one of several guilds. The fraternity is not religious, even though it was tied to Christianity as a guild, and what it does is lead its members, if they wish, on the Pilgrim's Path to enlightenment, which is following the history of religion and the occult back to its beginnings as you described. In reality, you learn that all religion is invented by man, and it's based upon creation and procreation (sex, birth, and marriage). Most who travel the complete path become agnostic, and some, atheistic, just as academics do in university. There are a few that do not make it to the end of the path, much like Kant, and believe in the occult, thus, the offshoots, which led to believing in things such as the NSDAP did.
