The average Mason, after taking his degrees in Masonry asks himself, “what does it all mean”? Few Masons have, or will take, the time to make a study of Masonry. It is to this class of busy Masons that the “Philosophical Society” makes an especial appeal. We try to cull from the writings of Masonic scholars the "meat" of the subject, and attempt to present it as such.
There are thousands of Masons who can repeat the ritual, but who have no conception of what it all means. There is nothing said in the ritual that should seem mysterious. Everything in Masonry has a beautiful meaning if rightly understood, and everything done in the ritual work is meant to teach a distinct moral lesson.
Masonry would die out in five years if it had to depend upon about 85 per cent of the membership. It is the small minority, the really interested Masons who have kept and are keeping the order alive today.
