	Paganism
		The source of nearly all anti-masonic material relating to Freemasonry as being pagan evolves from the writings of Albert Pike and Dr. Albert Mackey, two American Freemasons who were devoted to the study of ancient mysteries and societies, Dr. Mackey being one of the most voluminous writers of his time.
		Mackey in Masonic Ritualist, written in 1867, and Symbolism of Freemasonry, written in 1869, carried it not only to an absurd degree, but to an extent which can hardly be less than revolting to a Christian.
		In order to properly interpret Mackey and Pike on paganism, one must understand that they entered the masonic fraternity in the 1840s, when masonic literature was at its height and both walked unsuspectingly into the circle of magism, paganism and occultism before they were properly seasoned in the history of the Craft.

	The Builder Magazine - December 1922
		Of stalwart and commanding presence and richly cultured discourse Dr. Mackey was in close personal charm at once gentle and dignified, acute in his warm practical sympathies for all suffering humanity, and deeply dowered with a strong faculty for friendship firm as the hills everlasting.
		Born at Charleston, in South Carolina, on the 12th of March, 1807, made a Mason there, it is said, in the year 1841; he became a member of the Supreme Council and Secretary General in 1844, and continued to be both until his death at Fortress Monroe, in Virginia, on the 20th of June, 1881.
		Tall, erect, of spare but vigorous frame, his somewhat harsh but striking features were replete with intelligence and amiability; he conversed well, and was liked as a genial and companionable man, of a cheerful, tolerant and kindly nature, who, if he had quarrels with individuals, had none with the world.

		However, some of the seasoned veterans of the Craft held that although this might be the case, the word should not be removed, because it is unwise to innovate on the traditions of an old ritual.
		Pike did not approve of Mackey’s opinion on this subject, nor Mackey on Pike’s opinions.
		While we hold that Masons such as Kenneth Mackenzie were the more esoterically inclined, and Masons like Mackey were pragmatic and exoteric, these essays should repay the reader, for they do contain interesting insights not generally available to the average reader of Masonic history.

		Albert Mackey, already quoted herein, also writes in his classic work "Symbolism of Freemasonry," page 352, "Phallus, a representation of the virile member which was venerated as a religious symbol… It was one of the modifications of sun worship, and was a symbol of the fecundating power of that luminary.
		Concerning these two lines, Albert Mackey has written ("Symbolism of Freemasonry," page 352), "The lines touching the circle in the symbol of the point within a circle are said to represent St. John the Baptist and St. John the Evangelist, but they really refer to the solstitial points, Cancer and Capricorn, in the Zodiac."

		It is clear from this that an attempt had been made to make the reading of Mackey’s Landmarks mandatory as a means of forcing their acceptance upon a reluctant brethren.
		The fact that the booklet containing Mackey's Landmarks was presented "...to every newly raised Master Mason for his information and guidance and as an introduction to the study of Masonic law," has been misinterpreted by many of the brethren, and has added credence to the belief that these are the recognized Landmarks of Ancient Freemasonry.
		Many modern masonic researchers and writers believe that Albert Mackey's code of Landmarks contain many dubious interpretations and should not be blindly accepted.

		In fact, there is deliberate deception in the Lodge with regards to Masonic symbolism as it appears in these lower degrees, which is not discovered by the initiate until he advances into the higher degrees of either the York Rite or Scottish Rite.
		Albert Pike was certainly not alone in tracing the theology of Freemasonry back to the phallic worship of the pagan cults of the past.
		The Masonic doctrine of pluralism is also evident throughout the document, as its framers sought to create a republic in which the various political factions would be in constant competition with one another and would thereby neutralize themselves and thereby reveal their underlying political unity.

		Doctor Mackey believed there is evidence, circumstantial at least, to show that the word was, if not an invention of the Sentient or Dermott Freemasons, at least adopted by them in distinction from the one used by the Moderns, which latter is the word now in use in the United States of America.
		Brother Mackey was disposed to attribute the introduction of the word into Freemasonry to the adherents of the House of Stuart, who sought in every way to make the Institution of Freemasonry a political instrument in their schemes for the restoration of their exiled monarch.
		In January, 1875, Doctor Mackey became one of the editors of the Voice of Masonry, and for over four years was a constant contributor to that periodical, when failing health necessitated his giving up this work.

		Albert Mackey (Encyclopedia of Freemasonry): ``A belief in the existence of God is an essential point of Speculative Masonry -- so essential indeed, that it is a landmark of the Order that no Atheist can be a Mason.'' Why must one believe in a Supreme Being if FREEMASONRY is not a religious institution?
		Thus, in a Lodge consisting entirely of Jews, the Old Testament alone may be placed upon the altar, and Turkish Freemasons may use the Koran.

		In 1852 Albert Pike and sixteen other Masons became Charter Members of Magnolia Lodge No. 60, and in 1853-54 he served as its Master.
		The survival of the Scottish Rite and the Mother Supreme Council in particular was probably due to the fact that in 1853 Grand Secretary Albert G. Mackey, 33rd, and Albert Pike were Grand High Priests in their respective States of South Carolina and Arkansas.
