Thank you, Nephylite. It's good to see at least one creationist that doesn't disqualify themselves from the subject right off the bat.

In Masonluktan Esinlenmeler (translated Inspirations from Freemasonry), Master Mason Selami Isindag synopsizes this occult faith:
Masonry is not godless. But the concept of God they have adopted is different from that of religion. The god of Masonry is an exalted principle. It is at the apex of the evolution. By criticizing our inner being, knowing ourselves and deliberately walking in the path of science, intelligence and virtue, we can lessen the angle between him and us. Then, this god does not possess the good and bad characteristics of human beings. It is not personified. It is not thought of as the guide of nature or humanity. It is the architect of the great working of the universe, of its unity and harmony. It is the totality of all the creatures in the universe, a total power encompassing everything, an energy. Despite all this, it cannot be accepted that it is a beginning this is a great mystery.
