Co-Freemasonry

Co-Freemasonry is a fraternity including men and women of every race, nationality and religion. Wishing to do away with all cause for division and strife,it continually seeks the means which to help all human beings to unite and work together for the perfection of Humanity. A Masonic Obedience independent of all others,has not created a new Rite. What distinguishes it from other existing Obediences is that, instead of admitting men only to its ranks, it admits women on an equal footing. It proclaims equal rights for both sexes and absolute liberty of conscience. In order to secure to everyone unlimited freedom in the search for truth,it demands the utmost tolerance from all its members. It avoids political and religious discussions wherever these cannot be carried on with requisite tolerance and moderation; it welcomes everyone who is upright, free, of mature age, sound judgement and strict morals, whatever may be his or her convictions in matters of religion,philosophy or politics.
