Masonic Lodges

what do you guys know about freemasons and what they stand for.

I read an interesting book called brothers in blood a while back and was reading about their history, possible linkages of the current form in which freemasonry exists with the guilds back in and prior to King Solomon’s times etc etc.

I wanted to see if others knew anything interesting about this group.

Its a Masonic order check it out on web...

Yeah checked them out as well as the Knights Templar. Question is how much real connection is between these current groups and those of a few centuries ago, and also those of the ancient timea around king solomon.
