Those things are inherited and most importantly given to kings in special conditions.
Rites of passage and secret societies come from immemorial times. It is a mistake to consider them bad or evil. Take the transformation from boys to men for example. You wouldn't want to be ruled by a boy, situation which happened many times in history because of stupidity mostly.
Freemasonry is only one type of such secret society. The fact that you know about it makes it irrelevant in the grand scheme of things. It's more likely a lobby for structures less and less known by the public. At best it is a place for recruitment. Maybe 1 in 10,000 members know anything of value. It is believed there are 6M members worldwide. Notice again the 'magic' of number 6,000,000. Fucking Jews again. 🐸
Said society was deeply reformed in 1717 in London. They claim they are the rightful successor of the operative masonry who built the cathedrals and whatnot. I do not abide by this forgery. It is only a Jewish trickery which will culminate with bringing the antichrist in North America later this millennium.
