Behind the Lodge Door: The Church, State and Freemasonry in America

This is the best book that I have read on Freemasonry so far. By far the best. Paul Fisher should be commended for writing this meticulous work. The author goes right down the line and lists what tactics this group uses and how they use their connections to propogate their religion. He quotes extensively from their own books and newspapers. The secret society of the freemasons is real and their pagan religion is real and their tactics are real as well as the very real consequences people have to deal with because of their existence. I myself have had an experience with the freemasons where I had collected some information and quotes on an internet website on my userpage. I was hounded, attacked, accused of all sorts of things and my page was vandalized. In the end they successfully got the information deleted. This is how they work. The funny thing was that all the information that I collected was factual. Many were just quotes from masons in their own works. How afraid they are indeed of the truth! Fisher's book backs up my experience to show that this is how they have worked for centuries. He also cites how the masons and the Ku Klux Klan were usually one in the same. The book is written clearly and lists the major figures of American freemasonry and what kind of people they were and it documents how the masons infiltrated the United States Supreme Court so that they could pervert the laws of the country to reflect their secret societies warped view of the world. Many of the liberal laws that we are suffering from today were caused because of freemasons in government and in high places. The book has taught me to never vote for one that's for sure. Behind the Lodge Door is a great book and an excellent read. Fisher doesn't really examine the spiritual aspects of being a mason however. One book that does, which I recommend is by Dr. Charles H. Kraft calledDefeating Dark Angels: Breaking Demonic Oppression in the Believer's Life. Kraft contests that freemasonry is the most evil group in existence and he backs this up with some very powerful examples.

I am the author of Behind The Lodge Door, and believe it may be helpful if potential readers knew the type of research and findings which the book brings out.First, of all, before writing the book, I was generally favorably disposed to the Masonic Fraternity after viewing a Shriner's Parade. Accordingly, to find out more about the "Craft," as initiates call Freemasonry, I read each monthly issue of its flagship monthly magazine, "The New Age," for each of the 10 annual issues for each year from 1921 through 1984. The majority of those issues ran about 110 pages per month, with very little advertising. The magazine's length shortened considerably about 10 years prior to its name change in less than a year after my book was published.From that research, augmented by Inernal Revenue Records, personal papers of five Supreme Court Justices, Civil War Records, Presidential papers, etc., I learned that Masonry was a militant opponent of the Catholic Church. The fact is that Church issued more than 50 major documents condemning Masonry for its Naturalism, and its unceasing efforts to overthrow Church and State.A crucial part of the book discusses how America was changed from basically a Christian nation to an agnostic country. That was accomplished through the Supreme Court of the United States when that body was dominated by Freemasons in ratios of 5-4 and 8-1 during the period 1941-1971 when it completely reversed 162 years of prior Court decisions regarding the religion clauses of the Constitution, as well as Congessional and Presidential actions.One of those Justices, Hugo Black, an ardent Mason, was found to be 1. A lifetime Member of the Ku Klux Klan, and was Constitutionally disqualified to sit on the Court. The latter reason is that when he was a U.S. Senator, he voted to increase the salaries of Justices from $10,000 to $20,000 per year, which is in violation of Article 1 of the Constitution.An interesting aspect of the Court's religion clauses decisions is that the arguments set forth in the Court's negative opinion on Christianity in America were predicated on arguments previously set forth in "The New Age." Moreover, they were brought before the high bench almost in the identical sequence in which they were complained about in the "New Age."That is the general thrust of the book. But interestingly enough, shortly after my book was published, Scottish Rite Masonry changed the title of its flagship magazine.Read the book. There is none other with such devastating documentation.

Mr. Fisher has used their own documents to expose Freemasonry for what it is -- superficially a charitable fraternity, but fundamentally a secret society committed to destroying all religion except worship of "The Great Architect [of _this_ world]," namely Satan. Necessarily high level Masons hide this from the public and from the lower orders of "Blue Masons," but Mr. Fisher uses Masonic sources to shed due light on the underlying Masonic worship of the Prince of this World and how Masonic beliefs are used to undermine all good in society.

BEHIND THE LODGE DOOR. Paul A. Fisher. A probing analysis of Freemasonry in the U.S. in general, but especially relative to religious education, opposition to the Catholic Church, directing national social policy and how Masons attract members. Thoroughly documented. Immensly revealing. Covers the birth and rise of Freemasonry, the Catholic Church's early and traditional condemnation of it, its scope and influence, how in a real sense it is a religion of its own, etc. Essential to understanding the forces behind the scenes.

This is a seminal book. It brings to light the awesome power of Freemasonry in America, and provides an exceptionl and provocative analysis of the religion clause of the First Amendment to theU.S. Constitution. The main focus of the work is on the U.S.Supreme Court and its dominance for the first time in history by Justices who were members of the secret Brotherhood. The author provides a penetrating insight particularly to Justice Hugo L. Black, a man who was exposed by the Pittsburg Post Gazett and the New York Times as a lifetime member of the Ku Klux Klan. Integral to the book's focus is the author's detailed evidence of Masonic influence on the high bench. This is authenticated by citations from numerous articles in the the New Age, the official organ of Scottish Rite Freemasonry of the Southern Jurisdiction. Those articles demonstrate that the Fraternity, as it is known, opposed any possible government aid to religious institutions, particularly parochial schools. Strangely enough, the high bench handed down a series of decisions in the 1940, '50s, '60s, and '70s, the reasoning of which paralleled arguments frequently advanced in the New Age magazine As a result of those Court decisions, Christianity has been emasculated in public life. Two other major sections of the book document how Masonry was involved in setting up secret lodges in the Civil War; how it was the generative force which precipitated the Philippine Revolution at the turn of the last Century, as well as other political events. Of interest, too, is a provocative evaluation of how the Craft targets men to join the secret Fraternity, including U.S. Presidents, Members of Congress, major military leaders and others to advance its goal of completely overthrowing Church and State and establishing a World Government under Masonic control.This is a "must read" for anyone interested in the intrigue and secret forces who are so dominant in shaping world society. Don't dismiss this work out of hand> READ IT! Then refute it, if you can.END.
