The Trouble With Freemasons
ByHe also wheels out the novel claim that he's being attacked because he's "hit something real," a defensive gesture I'll be sure to remember when my new project, Freemasons Rule the World, hits bookstores next month. I expect to take some knocks for my argument -- which essentially exposes the fact that Freemasons control the world -- but I'm pretty sure my anti-Masonic friends will understand that I'm actually making a very cautious, thoughtful argument. In spite of what the title suggests -- it comes from an episode of The Simpsons, an allusion my Masonic critics are bound to miss -- I don't argue that contemporary Freemasons actually control the world. Instead, I'm interested in the ways that important Freemasons around the world exert control over lots of things that are in the world, like governments, the global economy, science, and those sorts of things. It's a work of political theory.
Sounds provocative! (I actually live near a Masonic temple on 10th and U which a few months ago started renting out its first floor to CVS, a company that I think really might control the world)
