It's not too complicated
Freemasons, Oddfellows, druids etc are fantastic ways to network with people usually ingrained in the community who are less likely to fuck you over in any business dealings. The downside is the super gay rituals that go along with it. You can always go to a real estate investing association meetup but you need to separate the wheat from the chaff at those things.

alot of what freemasons teach you is stemmed from hermes teachings

hermes is a pretty based teacher
seems like a great way to network
of course, each location has it's differences/personalities, by which you could try many different locations and see which best fits you.

>is it worth joining a crypto Kabbalah cult where the wisdom is deliberately obscured from you and drip fed to you over 50 years while they charge you money?

No. Time is a valuable asset than anything related to finance and so is your mind. These faggots will squander and hamstring you on both fronts. The time required for you to participate in dinners, readings, citations, etc, would be straight up better spent teaching yourself new skills or doing more organic networking. Or even if you are interested in the occult aspect, just learning Hebrew and studying the occult yourself.

Freemasons are just faggots who struggle in life and need a group to support eachother because they're too dumb to make it without depending on the group. Hence why there is a price to pay, i.e molestation and gay rituals. All freemasons are annoying cunts who think they're woke and have some sort of secret knowledge. Low level pawns. They call eachother brothers and shit just so they feel like they're a part of something special but its not its just gay.

I did it thinking it would help me make connections or land a decent job. It didn't. I made a few friends but nothing life changing. When I quit because I was a poorfag, that was that. No one tried to 'lure' me back in or made it difficult to leave. There really wasn't a lot of networking or favor-doing. It was just kinda boring. The rituals were kind of weird but also kind of interesting in the way that all ceremonies have a kind of gravity to them, but not sinister as people say. Although I do believe it is not proper for a Christian (which I now am) to be participating in these rituals.

Freemasonry is just a group of old guys who do stuff for charity etc and get some purpose and feeling of importance by going to meetings, getting a title like "senior warden", and get to hang out with other guys away from women and talk about the shit men like to talk about, and discuss how they will dole out the funds from their boomer members.

Possibly there is more 'favors' and networking going on at the higher levels, but is that really any different to what happens at golf courses or exclusive restaurants? The elites don't need a club to network. They know who each other are.

Not defending freemasonry. Like I say, as a Christian I think it is the wrong path. I'm just being honest that it really isn't what people think it is. Its just a club for guys to go and make friends, pretty much. Not really that different to if you go to a bar once a week and make friends with the guys in there.

>> No.23272874

>>23270672
No. It's not universally worth it. Joining a church or even literally a real estate group or civic group that isn't Free Masons is more likely to get you connections. Churches because they are social by nature, real estate groups because it directly targets real estate, other civic groups because that's where local small time power brokers meet and mingle, some do business together, some just socialize but even just talking and getting to know them grants you more knowledge and acceess to even small ventures like singular job openings or opportunities.

>>23272412
I'm gonna be honest Anon while I'm not in the masons nor do I want to join them, none of their rituals, even if they were overtly and deliberately in rejection of God and worshipped any other entity, change the offer of Salvation through Christ, a sincerely repentant former cannibalistic, murderous, child abusing Mommon worshiper receives the full grace and pardon of the Lord.

>> No.23272913

>>23272623
Basically this.
I was planning to join Freemasonry but lots of shit happened in my life that completely derailed that. When of the things that was communicated to me was "if you plan to join Freemasons under the belief that you're going to profit from it, you're wasting your time".
If you need 'business favors' Scientology might be your thing, but know what your getting into; you're making a deal with the Devil here and it might cost you your life

>> No.23272970

>>23272874
Yeah but what are you saying bro? "Jesus is ok with me being a cannibalistic child abuser if I then accept him as saviour"? Obviiously if something is not approved by God you want to NOT do that thing. Especially if you know in advance that the thing is wrong or against God. Follow Christ and network in the community and in church. In the open. Not behind closed doors and over weird rituals which frankly are anti-Christian but in such a sneaky way as to make them seem benign.

True, but they need to repent and make a choice, with no excuses. They need to know that it's the highest of all abominations, higher then any sin or heresy, accordingly to the bible they pretend to follow.

Yes but they can make the choice after they've done it. I know too many people I've talked to who really seem to doubt or not understand how bad you can go and still be redeemed not because it's okay to willfully do evil but because you've chosen to change. It's not just a saying it is the will of the Lord that all who wish to, receive pardon and repent.

If the old Testament had no value in it Christ would have told us not to bother with it. To pretend that you can divorce Jesus from the old Testament completely is intellectually dishonest.

I really wonder why that is. Now I'm increasingly surrounded by a bunch of opportunists or esoteric airheads. The old school brethren die off or go silent. Not very nice. Even the rituals are less fun and educational than earlier.
