FREEMASONRY AND RELIGION

While freemasonry has a religious basis, it is neither a religion nor a substitute for religion. Before he can be admitted a member, a man must profess his belief in a Supreme Being, by whatever name is He known, and be of good moral character. Beyond that freemasonry does not go.

It does not question a man as to his particular faith or his religious dogma, but it urge him to practice the religious belief which he holds.
