Discussing Freemasons...
In my knowledge and experience, Freemasons is a gentleman-only club, with much invented dogma and confusion around this. They do not discuss this dogma however, as the only prequisite of joining is to believe in "GOD" which can be the christian god, the christian devil, yourself or whatever entity. Many members only believes in this for show though, and uses the Freemason network for socialising or personal goals.
I think Freemasons has an important role for some people that wishes to have something physically more than ordinary life, mysticism, and uses it (as a certain man worded it) for "religious orgasms" without being seen as a 'weirdo' by today's western society standards. It's a unified religion that accepts all with no real rules, except the whole class, order and power-structure and strange rituals.
Really, they are a soup of good and bad and I don't think anyone alive really knows what they do or what their purpose is - including themselves.
