    essage-ID:

    or all you folks investigating Freemasonry. Here's an update of response

    a Freemasons who challenged the notion that Masons were involved in the

    ennedy assassination cover-up

    ne need look no further than the Masonic publications to find the Masonic

    natics who might want Kennedy killed. The level of hostility that

    eemasons felt toward Kennedy was documented in February 1960 issue of

    ew Age magazine, a Masonic publication, where Luther A. Smith, Sovereign

    rand Commander of the Scottish Rite, Southern Jurisdiction, told his

    aders:

    whatever bigotry is in evidence in the United States is exhibited solely

    y the Roman Catholic hierarchy; that the Canon Law of the Roman Church

    d the directives of the Pope validate the fears of the people that the

    ual allegiance of American Catholics is a present danger to our free

    stitutions, and lastly that the people in passing upon the

    ualifications of a Catholic candidate for the Presidency will be guided

    y their knowledge of history and their great store of plain old-fashionedmmon horse sense, and their innate caution not to gamble when their

    BERTIES AND THE NATIONAL SECURITY ARE AT STAKE (emphasis added).

    mong American citizens there should be no question or suspicion

    allegiance to any foreign power, but in the case of the Roman Catholic

    tizen, his church is the guardian of his conscience and asserts that he

    ust obey its laws and decrees even if they are in conflict with the

    onstitution and laws of the United States."

    o we have Masonic crazies asserting NATIONAL SECURITY issues over the

    otential election of a Catholic, John F. Kennedy. Mind you, this is

    asonic leadership. Now add to this the fact, documented by Masonic

    urces (see below) , that the Masons controlled the investigation into

    e Kennedy assassination and you have legitimate concerns over the

    onesty of the investigation. Most Americans believe a conspiracy existed.

    omparatively few know that members of a secret society, hostile to a

    ennedy presidency, presided over the assassination investigation.

    s for the maintenance of a secret. Freemasons, as demonstrateded by the

    gend of Hiram Abiff, have always focused on teaching the membership to

    ep their secrets. Hiram, the Masonic Christ figure, was raised from the

    ave because he kept his secrets. Those who violate Masonic secrets can

    pect retaliation, those who keep them, like Hiram, can expect rewards.

    longer article on the probable involvement of Freemason's in theennedy assassination is available at the WWW site below. As is partial

    xt from a variety of Masonic exposes and the "Proceedings of the US

    nti-Masonic Convention", a record of the 1st third party political

    nvention in the US. Critics of Freemasonry include President John Q. Adams.

    his book, Freemasonry in American History, the Masonic scholar, A. E.

    oberts identifies some of the Masonic participants in the investigation

    the Kennedy assaination,

    ohnson had received the Entered Apprentice Degree in Johnson City

    odge No. 561, Texas, on October 30, 1937. Reasons for him going no

    rther are unclear. Until the 1850s becoming an Entered Apprentice made a

    an a full member of the lodge conferring the degree. During the 1850s all

    rand Lodges adopted laws making the Master Mason (or Third) degree the

    iteria for a man to be considered a Freemason. Before then, all Masonic

    usiness was conducted in the First Degree (and still is in some foreign

    untries). With the adoption of the new law, business can be considerednly in a Master Mason Lodge.

    ne of Johnson's first acts was to order the Federal Bureau of

    vestigation to check every aspect of the assassination. The FBI was

    aded by J. EDGAR HOOVER, who had become a member of Federal Lodge No. 1,

    istrict of Columbia, on November 9, 1920... But the public wanted more

    swers concerning the murder of the President than any agency could

    ovide. So, on January 29, 1963, Johnson issued an executive order

    eating a special commission. It would take the name of the man chosen toad it, Chief Justice EARL WARREN.

    arren, a Past Grand Master of Masons in California, was joined on

    e Commission by two other known Freemasons. They were Senator RICHARD B.

    USSELL, a member of Winder Lodge No. 33, Georgia, and Representative

    ERALD R. FORD of Michigan. John Sherman Cooper, Hale Boggs, Allen W.

    ulles, and John J. McCloy made up the balance of the Commission." (pg 379)

    is difficult to reliably determine if other members of the Warren

    ommission were also Freemasons, because no published records of

    embership exist. Even Mr. A. E. Roberts, who should have excellent

    cess to masonic sources of information, qualifies his list of Masonic

    rticipants on the Warren Commision to describe 'known Freemasons'.
