More Phonies

Fake Masonry EVERYWHERE - or so it seems sometimes....

The Black Community in the United States, more than any other group it seems, has been beset by the shams of 'fraudulent' Masonry. The material below will be more understandable by Americans who know the racial divide of their country than by those where men of all colors and creeds have always stood together as Masons.

We believe that there's a reasonable and rational explanation for this calumny in America. Black men have been involved with Freemasonry since Colonial times. Prince Hall, a 'Negro', became a Mason during the Revolutionary War and despite the segregation then rampant in a supposedly 'free' country, lodges of Black men grew and prospered. They were pillars of the community: business and political leaders amongst their segregated and oppressed people. Masonry was a uniting force in their separate and far less than equal community and the Freemasons helped develop new generations of leadership. (Additional information here.)

As invariable happens though, hucksters and opportunists observed the respect with which the Black community held up Freemasonry - and they determined to gain as a result. Gain they did, through the formation of 'make-believe' Masonic groups - created out of thin air, sometimes by disgruntled or overly ambitious ex-Masons and sometimes by those looking to make a quick buck. Following in the tradition where Prince Hall led his lodge/grand lodge for a lifetime, those lodges which drew their heritage from that source likewise had Grand Masters whose grip on the reigns of leadership would extend for decades, thus chafing the more aggressive who themselves wanted to be in charge.

One on every corner - and internet location...

And thus arose many groups, claiming to be Masons but having no legitimacy of origin (a matter of particular concern to Freemasonry with no one entitled to simply go off and start their own Masonic group), they were shunned within the Prince Hall Masonic community but were nevertheless successful in seducing many men into believing that they had really and truly become 'Masons'.

As we expanded our section on 'Fake Freemasonry', we asked the permission of Bro. Ralph L. McNeal, Jr., FPS, Director of the Phylaxis Society's Commission on Bogus Practices, an unofficial but highly respected group, to include their listing of these pseudo-Masonic groups here so that you could see how many will attempt to use Freemasonry for their own, usually selfish, ends. While these groups purport to be "Masonic", they have no legitimacy outside of their own VERY small circle. Should you choose to join one of these groups, you'll find that no one will accept you as a Mason (except the group itself) and that your hope of sharing friendship and fraternity worldwide will, instead, most likely result in ostracism and embarrassment.

The entire Masonic community appreciates the efforts of Bro. McNeal and the Commission in trying to eliminate the confusion which pseudo-masonic groups can cause. You'll find several of the Commission's reports right here and if you're interested in the sordid details of Bogus Freemasonry, you should definitely not miss their material! Their listings appear numbered and in rust-colored text. We've added some other groups (no numbers preceding them) in black text as well.  

Online (Only, it appears)

Grand Lodge of All England - Never more than a fantasy in the mind of a couple of people, their 'Grand Secretary' pranced and prattled all over the internet until he apparently found a real job: acting! Now defunct.

World Egyptian Rite Masons - This is one of the most bizarre groups you'll find. It's SO whacky that we've even set up a separate page about them HERE. However, with the death of their apparently only member, you probably won't hear about them in their present form again.

Yahoo Grand Lodge - a Yahoo chat group which was apparently busiest in 2004-2005. Don't bother!

Hiram United Sovereign Grand Lodge - their website tries to show that they have members located all through the Southern United States and they claim to be far more than just a state organization but, strangely, none of their meeting locations are identified and the Grand Lodge location is in a Post Office box! Oh, and while looking at their Grand Lodge officers, do be sure to click on the listing of State Grand Masters. You'll notice a lot of boxes with no names and those pictures which do appear, curiously, match right up with the officers of the HUSGL. How interesting, eh?

No one specific place - claims of lodges vary

Masonic Talk Podcast - Although claiming to be "The ultimate Masonic Platform" for "The Ultimate Masonic Podcast – Real Talk, Real Masons, All Positive", they're not - as judged Grand Lodges who are a part of the worldwide body of regular/recognized Masonry. When a knowledgeable Mason looks at the titles of their guests, it's easy to see that this bunch is as bogus as the day is long. They pretty well hide the name of their so-called Grand Lodge elsewhere, however, and thus even long-term regular Masons (including one I know from Massachusetts who should know better) has friended them on their Facebook page here. Their website is down as of this writing and perhaps may never reappear. Who knows? What we do know is that they're simply not - in the accepted sense of the word in the Masonic world - REAL MASONS!

The American National supreme council, Ancient Free and Accepted Scottish Rite Freemasons of the World, Thirty-third and Last Degree and Order of Eastern Star (Now THERE's a title - copied from their website here - complete with the odd lack of capitalization for Supreme Council!)

Grand Masonic Orient of Ireland

Grand Lodge of Jerusalem (of Freemasons) -- With a Facebook page, who could ask for anything more? However, the Grand Lodge of the State of Israel (GLSI) has indicated in no uncertain terms that this group, formed by Moti Zwim whom they describe as a self-appointed Grand Master - has no regularity of standing and should be avoided. (That warning notwithstanding, some regular/recognized Masons have nevertheless 'friended' them on Facebook most likely out of ignorance - or in a hope of garnering new book sales and magazine subscriptions for their ventures.)

Grand Orient of the United States - We've devoted an entire page to this group because of their {former} pernicious and persistent web presence. Read all about it here.

International Masonic Order Delphi including the Grand Mixed Lodge Delphi of the USA.

Le Droit Humain. One of their American proponents is the owner of things at the PhoenixMasonry website. See our story about him here.

Grand Consistory of the Scottish-Ecossais Rite, Mother Supreme Consistory Council of North America. Yet another Blogger site created by disgruntled former Mason David Cooksey whose fantasies seemed boundless but whose creations were merely Blogger websites proclaiming himself titular ruler. You can read more about the late Mr. Cooksey's foolishness here on our site.

Regulus Lodge, Birmingham - An internet creation of the bogus Grand Orient of the United States. As of February, 2013, their last post was that their light was getting brighter in 2008 - which should give you some idea as to how bright it really got. It was, most likely, just a website created to marginalize Vulcan Lodge, the next entry.

Vulcan Lodge, Birmingham - the creation of a Mason who quit regular/recognized Freemasonry in a huff and went on to a convoluted flirtation with the GOOFUS group (mentioned directly above), ultimately forming this group with a small group of friends. It has passed from memory with his passing - except here where you can read all about it.

25. Most Worshipful Mt. Tabor Grand Lodge AF&AM, Inc., Scottish Rite (CA)

-- Grand Lodge of Luxor (Why these characters even have a YouTube video claiming you can't be in the Illuminati unless you're a Mason. What a bunch of stupidity! Their self-claimed Secretary posted on Twitter in 2012 that England had given them recognition. He was probably confusing the England most of us know with some other England since they are not now - and from their behavior online will NEVER be - regular and recognized Freemasons.)

-- California Grand Lodge of the Universe - which, you must admit, is a pretty bold title. It's hard to believe that their members really think that....No, wait: they probably DO think they control the universe. Amazing! See their Facebook page for a laugh.

Delaware 

26. Harmony Grand Lodge F&AAYM (National Compact) on the Continent of North America (DE) 

27. Orient Grand Lodge AF&AM, Inc., Scottish Rite (DE) 

28. Two Individual Lodges (DE)

Most Worshipful Eagle Grand Lodge - Not 'fast food' Freemasonry, but certainly not regular/recognized either although they'd like you to think they are! Their website is slick and so are their attempts to pretend they're part of the world-wide Masonic movement.

Washington, D.C.

35. Benderson Grand Lodge (DC)

General Grand Masonic Congress - formed, ostensibly, in 1847 and NOT part of the 'regular' system of Prince Hall Freemasonry. Their website is filled with password protected information (oh, whee!!!) and they use a lot of buzz-words and phraseology to make you think they're the 'real deal'. They're not - and as stated elsewhere, membership in any one of the groups listed on this page will prohibit you from being recognized as a Mason except within the confines of that specific group and not even the rest of the make-believe, so-called Masonic groups on this page!

-- and another addition: Sovereign Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Universal Masonic Brotherhood, Inc. (Website here devoid of any relevant information except that which is designed to create an appearance of legitimacy. Don't be misled! Hilariously, their 'search for a lodge' is nothing but a blank page - not even a fillable form...)

-- Universal Masonic Brotherhood Inc. (and variations of that name) apparently 'headquartered' in Seffner, Florida.

-- The Most Worshipful John Pine Grand Lodge of Ancient Free & Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry

-- Jeff Long Grand Lodge : King David #6 - Their website is UniversalMasonicBrotherhood.org but they claim to be located in the Atlanta metro area rather than Florida. Who knows when you've got two-card monte games like this?

If that's the case, Masonry's FAR better off without these ignorant people - but sadly, they will continue to claim that they are 'Masons' and use the trappings of Masonry to push their goal, however wrong-headed that is.
