Masons themselves disavow Charles Taze Russell's alleged membership in Masonry. Why, therefore, do Springmeier and others like yourself continue to insist he was?
You really don't get it do you? Masons are sworn to secrecy about membership. I will explain it in real simple terms here. Freemasons must lie about its members when one asks. Understand?
The website you referred to is the British Columbia and Yukon Masonic website. They have to lie. Its part of their laws. If they admitted that Russell was a Mason, than they would be violating their laws and the one who broke it would be punished accordingly.
Sebastian at another ex JW forum exposed this website.
