Ive ran into a few members of the free masons… I think people are having this misconception from seeing movies and such that the free masons are still what they were back in the day. I chatted with him about it for a little while, he said if I wanted to join thats all I need to do is just walk into one of their lodges and join. I dont think its all secretive like it was back in the day. Edit: I also see people with the crest on the back of their cars all the time…ooohhhh secret 😛 ---

dan brown lies constantly and actually kind of sorta tries to play it off like hes doing actual research, when in realisty he is putting fallacy and false information out. Even tho his books are in the fiction section, he seems to try very hard to convince everyone that he is spreading truth.
