Rating: Summary: The Truth about Freemasonry, what it is and what it isan't. Review: Whatever you're a Masonic expert or have no idea what Freemasonry is, you can enjoy "A Pilgrims Path". Robinson's years of research and study about Freemasonry have been put into this book all for your enlightenment and enjoyment.The book begins by summing up just what Freemasonry is and what it's not. Mainly that Freemasonry is the world's oldest fraternal order and not a religion or even quasi religion. He also covers briefly the debate over the origins of the fraternity and it's leading theories. The heart of the book deals with debunking recent and current "Anti Masonic organizations and persons". Robinson does a terrific job of exposing these themes. With simple research he points out that almost all Anti Masonic claims are A) Outright Lies or B) Items that are taken out of context so far they are twisted beyond recognition. He goes on to point out this propaganda is usually used for personal gain and more often, pure profit making schemes. Not only does "A Pilgrims Path" expose Anti Masonry propaganda for the lies it is but it also exposes just what Masonry really is. Robinson's accounts of Masonic charity will touch your heart. Such as the well-known Shrine children's hospitals will never charge a dime for their care. Finally, Robinson leaves a few ideas behind about his ideas for the future of fraternity every Mason should read and consider. Interested in the truth about Freemasonry? This is the story of one man's years of research. It's also the story of why he joined the Craft.
