First of all, I've been lurking here for aages and went to the last few lans (back in the day) so please don't dismiss this as just random blogspam.

Im posting this to try and find the local brisbane "tin foil hat" conspiracy buffs, for a little help researching the influence of Freemasonry (among other groups) in Qld. I've been reading waaay too many conspiracy theory books lately and was dissapointed by the lack of local news and coverage of cults in Brisbane.

I've started a blog to try and make a reliable source of local news and FACTS about the Brisvegas underground. I want to concentrate on relevant australian information only, and not let it become a retarded mess of Anti-American propaganda like most conspiracy sites I've seen.

My main interest (today) is trying to build a directory of Masonic lodges in Queensland. Since starting this side quest I've gotten completely overwhelmed by the amount of lodges (100 so far), and the lack of public info available about each.

If your bored and know how to google, I'd really appreciate you helping with this little project. If you think this kind of information should be public knowledge, but dont actually wanna help research yourself then you could help by spreading the word to other Brisbanites that might be interested.

Or we could just look at spoot (NSFW) and forget the whole thing.

should have stayed a lurker

I'm confused.

I tried wiki, but that just confused me more.

Aww C'mon spook why no love?

your spoot sucks (on my phone), pics only please.

I am interested to know what sort of organisation the Freemasons are - are they like a not-for-profit organisation or a company or what?

Good question trog, im not positive but I think they'd qualify as a not-for-profit org. They have joining and annual fee's but they seem to be pretty cheap (<$100) so I cant imagine how they afford their temple bling?

do you mean freemasonry the jewish consipracy to take over the world where the founding fathers where members and thomas jefferson is in the lineage of pheonicians/jews?

if something else then please explain :D

Yup, those guys.
Although I dont believe that the group as a whole are evil or even aware of the overall plan, I DO think they are unwittingly being used by the highest level members to accomplish exactly that. I could rant, but I wont (yet)

and the lack of public info available about each.

that's because it's an underground secret society which is a puppet of the New World Order... duh.

this is a pretty pointless thread.

My understanding of freemasonry is pretty limited because though my grandad was one I didn't know him particularly well. From what I've gathered though freemason are largely a not-for-profit organisation which is designed as a place for likeminded people to meet and run the world.

OH WAIT I'VE SAID TOO MUCH!

The are a quasi religious secret fraternity with secret handshakes and passwords.

Technically you can't be a catholic and a free-mason.

"The faithful, who enroll in Masonic associations are in a state of grave sin and may not receive Holy Communion..."

Ratzinger

imo The are the Lions or Rotary but with rituals.

Raphael's a nice restaraunt in Shorncliffe is in an old Freemason's temple. And there is another being used by a building company in Chermside on Gympie road.

Honestly "fraternities" are not big in Brisbane. Secret ones with funny ways to hold another man's hand are even less popular. It was huge in the states tho.

That said our first Priminister Edmond Barton was a mason (and probably the only notable Australian mason.

Pointless? Im trying to map out the local lodges so we can all be a little more aware of whats happening around us. It spun me right the f*** out that I've lived within a block of 3 of these lodges and never even noticed the (now obvious) signs. They're everywhere, but how many of you could have pointed out a single one?
Edit - Thanks Obes for the only actual relevant local info I've gotten so far (anywhere)

Btw, they're in your internets reading you threads! OMGWTFBBQ!

Except for the f*** off huge lodge in the city in the really cool looking old sandstone building. :P I wanna know how they afforded that f***er.

xcept for the f*** off huge lodge in the city in the really cool looking old sandstone building. :P I wanna know how they afforded that f***er.

From all the Jew gold they have been collecting over the past 2000 years? Dunno just a guess. Its very similair to scientology ...

This is what the Simpsons stonemasons episode was based upon.
Also it's based on the christian faith, not the jewish faith.

There's a John Safron vs God episode featuring the freemasons, might wanna check that out.

haha, what?

this is a pretty pointless thread.

followed by:

My understanding of freemasonry is pretty limited

Immediately, surely it's not pointless because you can immediately expand your knowledge of what it is.

Ah I've seen these buildings around, I always thought that symbol was for an engineering/mathematics company or something.

lol, they don't let women join.

WTF does this group do? Or do they just feel cool belonging to a secret club?

Why not ask the freemasons directly? Or are you looking to create a nice little conspiracy thing here?

http://www.uglq.org.au/index.cfm

lol... fear the Brisbane Grandmaster!

http://www.uglq.org.au/zone_files/General_Images/gaewingm_(2).jpg

Hah

If they create a Freemasons Scientology wing, then I'll think about joining :p

I get the feeling that if they don't list addresses for the temples on their lodge search page, then they're not going to just hand me a list. Even the websites for specific lodges dont like giving out exact addresses.

But yes, I have been in contact. And im just being careful not to burn any sources of information just yet.

It says on the site I can join?

Though wiki says I need references from inside members?

I think we should all join. Then at least we'll have a nice shiny lodge to have the next QGL lan in :)

It says on the site I can join?

Though wiki says I need references from inside members?

are you asking for confirmation on the words you're reading?

Chub reads everything in the reflection of his hunting knife. This means everything looks written backwards so it's hard to make sense of it.

I'm posting in this thread?

i was invited to become a freemason in brisbane as my mate is in it..

basically they have secrets that are club related but basically they are a bunch of upstanding members of the community who use the club to network

also you have to attend a meeting once a month which is basically sitting around and sipping port while discussing the news of the day

well that was how it was explained to me

my mate who is a freemason joined and goes so he can further his ambition as a barrister as alot of the freemasons are judges lawyers doctors etc

he has recently become a barrister and is now an aid for one of the chief justices in brisbane who is also a freemason

also to join you get invited by a freemason then you sit in front of a panel and tell them all about yourself to make sure you are an upstanding member of the community

werent freemasons originally the Knights Templar? And Cardinal Ratzinger was head of the papal office that evolved from the High Inquisition!!! No wonder he doesnt want them in his little club. And now Ratzinger is Pope.

more cones

They do alot of charity work.

lol @ this link haha http://www.texemarrs.com/042003/masonic_jews_plot_world_control.htm , the internet is a funny place

who controls the british crown, who keeps the metric system down?

Shuuut upppp.

I submitted an enquiry to the site. You reckon they'll call me back to join? My dog-to-baby strangle ratio is surprisingly low.

So what do they do?? oh that's right, nothing :/

Everyone knows that the world is controlled by Shape Shifting Lizards, who have their annual meetings at Bohemian Grove. Deerrrr

The mormon's "creator", Prophet Smith or whatever his name is, was an initiated mason. Its worth noting that the 2 mason symbols are also the symbols on mormon "magic" underwear ... and yes they really do have magic underwear.

There are also accusations that the founder of the Jehova's (whose name eludes me at the moment) was a mason, because of some of the symbols he used and because he's buried under a pyramid. Jehova's deny this. *shrug* ps. Jehova's are a doomsday cult that have predicted the end of the world atleast 3 times and got it wrong everytime so far.

I'm pretty sure the Mormon's got it right once, didn't they ?

*sigh* I'm losing faith in teh intarwebs
I posted my freshly baked site to a few different forums and social networking sites before coming to qgl for local help.
I imagined a small army of bored people googling and exploring the lodges and posting their findings to the directory, but after 400+ views in 24hrs I haven't had a single comment :(

What I learnt today:
1) Most people jump to extremes when they hear the word conspiracy, think of Reptillian overlords and write off anyone suggesting a conspiracy as a nutbar.
2) Its pointless trying to convince these sheeple theres a middle ground.
3) Mormons really do have magic undies.

So lets talk about them instead
Mormons in general have always creeped me out since I was a kid. Bad Juju.
The bad experiences posted on exmormon.org really don't help, on top of reports of Mormons openly doing surveillance on aussies that publicly criticize other cults..

Its a loong read (original was a 40 page .doc) but I think some of you would be interested in reading Reina Michaelson's story for a little bit of background on corruption, paedophilia and cults in Aus..

no-ones interested because no-one cares, who gives a f*** if theres a freemason building a few blocks from you? It's not like they ever do anything, i think your time would be better spent getting a life.

2) Its pointless trying to convince these sheeple theres a middle ground.

An evil middle ground?

Although I dont believe that the group as a whole are evil or even aware of the overall plan, I DO think they are unwittingly being used by the highest level members to accomplish exactly that

And there is another being used by a building company in Chermside on Gympie road.

yeah noticed that one near montezuma's

damn freemasons

A friends grand-father was into the whole Freemason thing and I heard crazy stuff from family curses to secrets they keep to their grave and such. She was pretty upset about it all and it was enough to make me warey about them.

There's one opposite the camping & disposals store in Beenleigh (up the road from Macca's).

so do they do any free masonry at all?

O the Hilarity!

Look at this schitzophrinics take on Freemasonry.

Hi.

smashcrab are you a freemason? If so i'm gonna smash your face in and turn it into a bucket of smashed crabs.

Freemasons is the same as QGL but interwebs forums instead of lodges.

Booyah is a freemason, he is the master quasimodo deluxe

*sigh* I'm losing faith in teh intarwebs

when you first post on a forum is 'i'm a conspiracy theorist, can you please help me try and validate my ideas'

wtf do you expect?

Manager from a few years ago was a member of the freemasons, he was realy quick to downplay the "secret" side of the freemasons. He tried to explain how it was just another organisation, like a business mens club. He said anyone could join (oh except women, but again thats not unlike other clubs) but you did have to get referal from someone inside the club.

He had the ring and said there was times you'd get discount on things from fellow members when you showed the ring.
Im sure they look out for other members and no doubt have people in high places that do favours for other members, but thats the stuff that would be hard to find out, its not like it would be written down anywhere.

On a side note I went into the freemasons building a while back to fix a printer, didnt see any rooms with "secret, do not enter!"

last edited by `ViPER` at 13:02:30 14/Aug/07

But thats no fun. Surly you overlooked a room about satanic death claws or some such. You remember it now don't you ;D

can anything be taken seriously on the internet? i think not. you should have posted a classified ad in the newspaper, like the old school nutjobs.

that website is so scary. no addresses or anything and weird messages about 'dont forget the book' wtf maybe they have their secret sacred y fronts on under those dinky costumes. and why do the temples have no windows. the symbols look like a keystone and a compass to me. who are these people? smashcrab, i'm with you. I wanna know what goes on in my back yard. I wouldnt mind doing one of those tours of the ann st temple, find out what they say to the public about themselves.

He said anyone could join (oh except women and homer's, but again thats not unlike other clubs) but you did have to get referal from someone inside the club.

fixted

and why do the temples have no windows.

Cause certain people..*ahem*...launch bricks at them.

My great grandfather was in a lodge. I have all his textbooks , badges/medals , notebooks etc..

Do you also have his dragon?

My great grandfather was in a lodge. I have all his textbooks , badges/medals , notebooks, underpants etc..

Classic thread. Keep it up :)

Initiatrix - Yeah im heading to check out the Grand Lodge on Ann st sometime soon too, but I doubt im going to find anything interesting since its their most public lodge in qld.. Still, worth a look for the historical exp.

when you first post on a forum is 'i'm a conspiracy theorist, can you please help me try and validate my ideas'

wtf do you expect?

Kinda missing the original point of the thread. I wasn't after confirmation of any theory, I was looking for help FINDING ADDRESSES.
Its not that hard to help.

For example, this arvo I decided to track down one of the Ipswich lodges after the almighty google gave me a rough area. I went for a wander and spotted a solid tank of a building with masonic symbols on the corner of Roderick st and Nicholas st Ipswich. Right opposite a church (cant remember which faith). Tinted windows with bars on the inside, seems to be connected to a house at the back, with a schmick looking limo parked out front.

10 mins effort since I was in the area anyway. Another one ticked off the list.

Now you do one.

Do you think these clubs have security...?

Could you storm in during a meeting, or do they barricade themselves inside their castles and bolt the doors?

I can sense a future CHUB story in the making...

O rly?

QGL is sick of my crazy stories, like how I got side punched off my bicycle yesterday by a crazy mofo on rollerblades at the Murarrie cycling track.

pls share anyway. it's gotta be better than talking about weddings.

Could you storm in during a meeting, or do they barricade themselves inside their castles and bolt the doors?

You could, but then you would see a secret handshake and hear one of the 3 secret syllables that make up the great Word that empowers the Darkness and they would have to kill you because that stuff is secret.

Also, the reason why it is opposite the Church is because secretly there is an underground corridor that connects the church basement with the house at the back of the lodge. In that Church Basement is where the fallen Catholic Anti-Priests that the lodge recruited denounce their faith and giveth their seed to Moloch in a gay blood orgy. While burning baby effigies.

I too, am very, very interested in knowing whether or not I can storm in during a meeting.

Do you think these clubs have security...?

Even if they do, I'm sure you have something in your arsenal that could take them out.

chub makes neo look like a fairy

could all storm in with compasses raised. steal the sacred undies and tie them to a citycat. freemasons exposed, skid marks and all!

Is it just me... or since this freemason thread, multiple new users have popped up?

/shifty eyes

i bet they're all clints friends

medication chub. remember your medication!

FAIL!

i bet they're all clints friends

My grandparents are Jehovah's Witnesses... I always knew they were too nice!


Perhaps this could explain the Sandbag phenomenon?

Why not try and track down Telstra exchanges, they dont list addresses either. OMFG, someone cook up a conspiracy for me!!!!

Why not try and track down Telstra exchanges?

Actually, most exchanges can be found with a little research. There are also lists provided by a government authority (I forget which one) and over at Whirlpool (you can find the thread if you want to dispel the conspiracy).

I'm performing at the freemason's lodge in the city on sunday. Also getting a tour of the inside

What event are you playing at on Sunday? Because i am attending an event on Sunday afternoon in the city.

I was in the brisbane gang show and to celebrate 100 years of scouting, the freemasons invited us to perform a few items and acts. And with that a tour of the lodge. I also performed at the 100 years of scouting show on the 4th at the suncorp piazza. (proud of it)

so is the show like a ritual where you sacrifice a young christian?

Maybe, he doesn't specify what he does/performs/acts.

I am sure that the masonic clubs would have security, but you would be bounced at the door cos you are wearing the wrong shoes or no girl with you

Or you're a dirty Crushles!@%!@

you want to know more watch the secrets of the matrix

http://www.davidicke.com/index.php/

Hm, I got the impression that the guy wanted to make a site filled with local Brissie folklore, history and rumours like WeirdNJ.com . That would be cool.

Denominator: Second the vote for secrets of the matrix, I'm not ready to believe everything that Icke has to say but you've gotta admit he's done massive amounts of research and raises heaps of interesting questions. (Yes, I called him a nutbar. A well informed, interesting nutbar.)

Crizane: Exactly. I want to make the site focus on issues and groups that affect Brisbane directly. I see too many conspiracy theory sites spread themself too thin trying to spam every issue that the U.S has, end up becoming a horrible mess to read and completely lose credibility and interest. Im determined to keep this place organised, based on provable facts, and tailored for Brisbanians.

Chub: Bust in, record everything, spank the grand master and run like hell.

sLinky: Can anyone come along? What time do you perform? Etc..
