From the little that I have read, as Hancock said, Freemasonry was created to undermine the fanatical bigotry and oppression of the church. A great deed in its own right. They believed people had the right to their own free will, and they obviously possess gnostic wisdom from Egyptian times. Ra speaks of foundations, building, the architect's square/right-angle, veils, sacrament..all symbolic concepts Masons learn about and discuss.
The following is often cited by others to show that they are Luciferian, yet the first sentence is always left out: "The Apocalypse is, to those who receive the nineteenth Degree, the Apothesis of that Sublime Faith which aspires to God alone, and despises all the pomps and works of Lucifer. LUCIFER, the Light-bearer! Strange and mysterious name to give to the Spirit of Darkness! Lucifer, the Son of the Morning! Is it he who bears the Light, and with its splendors intolerable blinds feeble, for traditions are full of sensual or selfish Souls ? Doubt it not!"
I can't find it, but I was reading how Masons recognize the allegorical role Lucifer played in bringing free-will. Ra agrees:

Quote:In this context you may see the one you call Lucifer as the true light-bringer in that the knowledge of good and evil both precipitated the mind/body/spirits of this Logos from the Edenic conditions of constant contentment but also provided the impetus to move, to work and to learn.
Those Logoi whose creations have been set up without free will have not, in the feeling of those Logoi, given the Creator the quality and variety of experience of Itself as have those Logoi which have incorporated free will as paramount.
