Freemasons has become the subject of fantastic speculation and conspiracy theories. We can assume that, in our current day and age, Masons are better known for unreal things than for what they actually do.
Freemasonry was a key factor in the European Enlightenment.
Somehow, I have to confess, I find this romantic. Meeting other interested people to discuss philosophical topics (in a broad sense!), such as the just state, metaphysics, and epistemology, while keeping an eye on the broader picture drawn by science and other fields. Of course, this doesn't mean I believe materialism or scientism is true, I simply find speculation informed by science more appealing.
