Statement of Scottish Rite Freemasonry and Religion

Scottish Rite Freemasonry welcomes men of all faiths and encourages each man to faithfully pursue his personal religious beliefs. Reasonable men can judge for themselves whether such an organization is something our Creator, by whatever name we may call Him, would smile upon.
