The Templar Knights were accused of heresy by Phillip of France in a power grab by the French King. Ultimately the templars were found to be not guilty of heresy as shown by the Processus Contra Templarios and the Chinon parchment. <br />Historians cannot make any solid connection to the Knights Templar which was dissolved ~1309 to Freemasonry which was a guild of Stone masons in Europe that was already in existence and had it's own set of rules and regulations and rituals probably as early as 950 C.E. or even earlier. <br /><br />Speculative Freemasonry as you see it today did not come about until 1717 or at the earliest 1649. That's about 7-10 generations later. I doubt that any could be found that could trace their linage back to the Templars directly by this time. <br />The very idea wasn't even considered until Ramsey's oration of 1738 in France. The oration didn't even claim a direct linage, just an allegorical one. What happen next was the "degree crazy" French took it and made all sorts of bizarre claims to antiquity.<br /><br />Otherwise a very good post and good work.Tin Machinenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2704673311126980525.post-8670620072222854052010-07-01T22:05:11.993-05:002010-07-01T22:05:11.993-05:00Bravo!

So beautifully Written!<br />I have been searching for answers for as long as I can remember... and it seems to me that information presents itself when you are ready to understand it. The info in the section about Lucifer in particular seems to surface everywhere as of late.<br />Most of the above information is not necessarily new to me (as I seek answers in all places); Yet you've managed to bring Light to my puzzle! So I may fit the pieces (that I've managed to find thus far) Together :) <br />Words cannot capture the effect you have produced here:) perhaps a - mild epiphany - says it best.<br />Thank you Steve<br />(as always)<br />laugh love light live <3 VaciaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
