<p>I’m a member of the Freemasonic youth group, the Order of Demolay, but I’m not sure if I should put this on my college applications. I have plenty other national offices and accomplishments that would make this seem irrelevant, but my reasons are this;</p>
<li>Demolay only lets people of excellent character in, with strong codes of morality, thus proving that my character is good, besides from the other things in my profile.</li>
</ol>
<p>But…</p>
<ul>
<li>Some people see Freemasons as evil and controlling the world (Mostly Ron Paul supporters - the US Government and 99% of others look upon us favorably)</li>
<li>Some people don’t understand Freemasonry properly</li>
<li>It seems awkward to put it on there, considering it is as sacred of a membership as being in any church.</li>
</ul>
<p>My mistake - it lets patriotic religious people in who aren’t ‘bad’ and tries to instill characteristics of morality and various other principles into them.</p>
<p>Freemasonry. That may raise some eyebrows. It may play and even bigger role…it may even be a plus if you apply to some elite place like Yale where they have the Skullz and Bonez club. I bet they love a Freemason as a member of their leadership. :-)</p>
<p>Well, that’s part of the organization’s activities isn’t it, which is private. There’s a reason why Freemasons and DeMolays kick so much butt…I mean, Napoleon, Clinton, Simon Bolivar, Washington, etc. You can’t get much better than that.</p>
I wish I was a free mason
