The Freemasons.

Who are the Freemasons? Well they are some of the most famous people inhistory. They are a secret organozation that stretch back all the way to George Washingtons time. Yes George Washington was a Freemason. I for one find the organization very amazing. I secrety and the people. They are all the allure that makes me want to know more.  Heres what I found out about them and their organization.
             
Freemasonry is a fraternal organisation that arose from obscure origins in the late 16th to early 17th century. Freemasonry now exists in various forms all over the world, with a membership estimated at around six million, including approximately 150,000 under the jurisdictions of the  Lodge of ScotlaGrandnd and Grand Lodge of Ireland, over a quarter of a million under the jurisdiction of the United Grand Lodge of England[1] and just under two million in the United States.[2]
The fraternity is administratively organised into independent Grand Lodges or sometimes Orients, each of which governs its own jurisdiction, which consists of subordinate (or constituent) Lodges. The various Grand Lodges recognise each other, or not, based upon adherence to landmarks (a Grand Lodge will usually deem other Grand Lodges who share common landmarks to be regular, and those that do not to be "irregular" or "clandestine").
There are also appendant bodies, which are organisations related to the main branch of Freemasonry, but with their own independent administration.
So what do you think of them?
