Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Code, Index and Higest of the Laws of Freemasonry: Consisting of the Ancient Charges, Constituion and Statutes, and Code of Procedure of the Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of the State of New York A Mason is obliged by his Tenure, to obey the moral Law; and if he rightly understands the Art, he will never be a stupid Atheist, nor an irreligious Libertine. But though in Ancient Times Masons were charged in every Country to be of the Religion of that Country or Nation. Whatever it was, yet it is now thought more expedient only to oblige them to that Religion in which all men agree, leaving their particular Opinions to themselves; that is. To be good Men and true, or men of Honour and Honesty, by whatever Denominations or Per suasions they may be distinguished; whereby Masonry becomes the centre of Union, and the means Of conciliating true Friendship among Persons that must have remained at a perpetual distance.
