This week, May 27th, 2010, the Hermetic Hour will deal with the fascinating subject of Masonic-Occult conspiracy connections. We will discuss the actual and fanciful history of Freemasonry in relation to occultism, radical politics, and "The New World Order." We'll go from the Illuminati, the French Revolution, the Morgan Affair, the Palladian hoax, Fabian socialism, to Marxism. We'll reveal just what the "Great Secret" of Freemasonry really is and why the Masons are hated and feared by the fanatics and true-believers of the world's great religions---and the followers of radical political philosophies. We'll briefly review Dan Brown's "The Lost Symbol." If you have a friend who believes that Masons are the secret agents of some shadowy world government, or satanic conspiracy, ask them to tune in. We will take calls, but this is a highly charged subject, so make your questions brief and reasonable. Tune in at 8:00 p.m. and, at the sound of the gavel in the East, we will seek the Light.

Today we begin our 6 part series on the Morgan Affair with an overview to provide the story before diving in to explore each figure in the epic.

Brethren, this Short Talk Bulletin Podcast episode was first published in March1933, and is brought to us by RW Bro Dex Rowe, PDDGM 9th – VT. The Morgan Affair is perhaps the most romantic and dramatic episode in the modern history of the Craft, and one which all Freemasons may ponder for their own enlightenment. […]

On a very special episode of Mormon Book Reviews, Mormon Scholar and Freemason Jason Smith comes on the program to discuss his research regarding the influence of Masonry on the formation of Mormonism. In this fascinating coversation he discusses how the "Morgan Affair" played a major role in the development of the Book of Mormon. The idea that Masonic Temple Rites were well known at this time and they may have been referenced in the lost 116 pages is also explored. Jason shows how Masonry played a major role during the Kirtland period as well, especially in the formation of temple rituals and the Book of Abraham. The Nauvoo period is then discussed and it is speculated that Joseph's entanglements with Masonry may have played a role in his martydom. We talk about the book "Method Infinite: Freemasonry and the Mormon Restoration" written by Cheryl Bruno, Joe Steve Swick III, Nick Literski. Jason wrote a review of it for the September issue of the John Whitmore Historical Association's Journal and he previews it here. We then talk a little about Jason's background. He was originally a staunch anti-Mason as a member of the Southern Baptist Convention. His father was a Freemason and Jason talks about how much it met that he become a "Brother" to his father before his passing. The discussion then turns to his work regarding the legacy of Pauline Hancock, the female founder of a Restorationist church. This church would have a major impact on the lives of Jerald and Sandra Tanner and their ministry. I look forward to having Jason back on to discuss how the Restoration impacted his Christian faith.

Mormonism is about to become entwined with Masonry. Joseph Smith now can say he's Joseph Smith Sr since his dad has passed away, which is kinda sneaky, but works. April 6 is Jesus's birthday, God loves Hyrum Smith, and the Nauvoo House is decreed to be built. Obviously, it doesn't go as planned. Don't worry everyone, it'll all end up okay because heaven exists and if you die, that's where you go.

It was created after the Morgan Affair of 1826 when the Freemason sect was nationally under attack and virtually came to an end.

This week, May 27th, 2010, the Hermetic Hour will deal with the fascinating subject of Masonic-Occult conspiracy connections. We will discuss the actual and fanciful history of Freemasonry in relation to occultism, radical politics, and "The New World Order." We'll go from the Illuminati, the French Revolution, the Morgan Affair, the Palladian hoax, Fabian socialism, to Marxism. We'll reveal just what the "Great Secret" of Freemasonry really is and why the Masons are hated and feared by the fanatics and true-believers of the world's great religions---and the followers of radical political philosophies. We'll briefly review Dan Brown's "The Lost Symbol." If you have a friend who believes that Masons are the secret agents of some shadowy world government, or satanic conspiracy, ask them to tune in. We will take calls, but this is a highly charged subject, so make your questions brief and reasonable. Tune in at 8:00 p.m. and, at the sound of the gavel in the East, we will seek the Light.
