as a mason, i can tell you that what you said about "the function oftheir secret oath is to get rid of organized religion (all religion) and live in a natural state without any form of law whether it be religious or governed" is complete garbage. whoever told you that is completely misinterpreting what they heard, or just being lied to.
masonry is the cornerstone upon which america's freedom of religion was based, and as well, no athiest may become a mason.
so why would an organization that wants to 'get rid of all religion' require a belief in God? seems odd doesnt it?
