5.0 out of 5 stars THE Moral Guide for all F.&A.M.'s! , October 11, 2004

By	Jeffrey Peter A. Hauck "Guerrilla Reader" (Pennsylvania USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The Ahiman Rezon is the text which reflects the temper and qualities which are ABSOLUTELY requisite in all men who would aspire to partake of the sublime honors and advantages, belonging to those who are duly initiated into the mysteries, and instructed in the art of ANCIENT MASONRY.

<Excerpt>
"He will likewise shun the gross errors of bigotry and superstition; making a due use of his own reason, according to that liberty wherewith a Mason is made free. For although, in ancient times, the Christian Masons were CHARGED to comply with the Christian usages of the countries where sojourned or worked (being found in all nations, and of divers <sic> religions and persuasions) yet it is now thought most expedient that the brethren in general should only be CHARGED to adhere to the essentials of religions in which all men agree; leaving each brother to his own private judgment, as to particular modes and forms. Whence, it follows, that all Masons are to be GOOD MEN AND TRUE---MEN OF HONOR AND HONESTY, BY WHATEVER RELIGIOUS NAMES OR PERSUASIONS DISTINGUISHED; always following that golden precept of 'doing unto all men as (upon a change of conditions) they would that all men should do to them.'"

This text belongs in the library of each of every individual Free and Accepted Mason. Five stars. Superb!
