I met with a 32 degree Freemason, in current standing with the lodge, he was their grand master and has done several decades of research in their library. And was told personally , that until you get to the 33 rd degree you do not know what is above that degree, there could be a 1,000 degrees. There is a super secret elite group above 33 degrees that are known as the 'Elite-ists" The lower Mason's are not even aware of them or know who they are.
The Freemason organization will not give out their names, degrees or positions. It is super secret with a death oath.
The other Mason's nicknamed them the "White Hats"
Back in the 1800's the Eliteists or 'White hats' all wore these. The member I talked to said that he has seen Russell's pyramid by his grave and told me that was a sign of great respect from the Mason's. The Mason's respect Russell because he started a wordwide religion from NOTHING and it is worth billions of $$$$ now.
