It is great that you are interested in joining, and have a higher goal for your life. I would like to remark however, that we do not operate under "one supreme being" it would be impossible for our fraternity to exist worldwide if we all were under the same supreme being. Religion essentially prohibits such. The other is that, although we all work toward world peace as we live the way we should, there is no order that is after the world. We assist those in need with charitable offerings, but we don't have an overall plan for the world.

Freemasonry may be traced by history and tradition, ...it is only necessary to refer to the information presented to you in a general manner. Information considered "secret" to mason's will NOT be divulged. Seek and ye shall find, Ask and it will be given you, Type and it will be posted (and most likely, answered).
