Pope Leo XIII wrote that the ultimate aim of Freemasonry is "to uproot completely the whole religious and moral order of the world which has been brought into existence by Christianity... Freemasonry is the permanent personification of the Revolution; it constitutes a sort of society in reverse whose aim is to exercise an occult overlordship upon society as we know it, and whose sole raison d'etre [reason for being] consists of waging war against God and His Church."I had a pastor friend say to me, "I think you have this whole thing wrong. The Masonic Lodge is full of harmless, old men." But listen to what the Illuminati founder Adam Weishaupt had to say:
"The Lodge shall be our nursery garden. All those who are not suited to the work shall remain in the Masonic Lodge and advance in that without knowing anything of the further system."
The local lodge has a social front for their goal to achieve world government.
