[mannyamador]

according to my recollection there are limited grounds for excommunication....kay it is not an easy thing to just do...below is the list of the grounds ....which one will i violate if i join freemasonry? can you please enlighten me?

Gwyn, your list seems to be INCOMPLETE. You will find a very specific list at the link below:

Excommunication
http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/05678a.htm

In that article you will find this specific excommunication:

(4) "Those who become members of the Masonic sect, of the Carbonari, or of other similar sects that plot either
openly or secretly against the Church or legitimate authorities; all who countenance these sects in any way whatever, and
finally, all who do not inform against the occult chiefs or leaders, i.e. until they have made such denunciations." Certain
associations are prohibited because of their evil or dangerous object; this article deals only with those to which it is
forbidden to belong under pain of excommunication latæ sententiæ. These are known by their aim, which is to plot against
the Church or legitimate authorities, obviously by illicit or criminal means; this excludes at once purely political groups. It
matters little whether or not these societies exact secrecy from their members, though the element of secrecy constitutes
an unfavourable presumption. The article names two of these sects, the Freemasons and the Carbonari; to these we must
add the Fenians (Holy Office, 12 Jan., 1870). There are four prohibited American societies: the Independent Order of Good
Templars (Holy Office, 9 Aug., 1893), the Odd Fellows, the Sons of Temperance, and the Knights of Pythias (Holy Office,
20 June, 1894), but not under pain of excommunication. In regard to the sects of which our article treats, three distinct
acts incur excommunication: the inscribing of one's name as a member, the positive favouring of the sect as such, and
failure to denounce the occult leaders. For this last act censure is not incurred if the leaders be not occult, or if they be not
known with sufficient certainty. The denunciation, if imperative, must be made within a month; once it is made the
excommunication is no longer reserved, and one is in a condition to receive absolution from any confessor without further
formality.

Please take note that excommunciation of this kind is "reserved" to the Pope, meaning only the Pope can absolve someone excommunicated under this circumstance (except, as noted above, in the last situation mentioned). Becoming a freemason is a very grave offense for a Catholic.

mura ug dili pa mga full pledge masons ang ni defend sa freemasonry dinhi nga thread...
so i would say nga wala pa sila kaabot sa level nga diin makatubag sila sa mga gi pose nga pangutana ni
mannyamador and desert father...
ang ilang pagka-anak sa mga masons wala magpasabot nga well informed or kahibalo gyud sila sa tinuoray
nga practices and teachings sa freemason... bisan ug unsaon sila ug pangutana, puro ra gyud siguro hersay
ang ilang matubag kay sa gika-ingon ko na wala pa sila mamahimong full pledge masons...
i wish lang nga naay mga masons diri nga maka confirm sa ilang gipangtubag... para sad mahayagan ang
tagsa2 ka mga huna2 sa mga nag sunod nianing maong thread...

good point.

Freemason is dangerous for it has a free mind. = not bound to religious beliefs.

All men are created equal. = so anyone can be a freemason.

A Freemason cannot tell you their secret. Death is the penalty if they do.

One secret they hold sacred. UFO.

Have you seen a dollar bill? Know the signs and symbols. Secret Societies communicate thru signs and symbols. Their biggest secret is secret.
