The Order Has Three Essential Characteristics
The Freemasons of the International Order of Freemasonry for Men and Women, Le Droit Humain work together to promote freedom of conscience, tolerance and harmony in a fraternally united society without distinction of ethnic, social, philosophical or religious origin. They undertake to respect the right of absolute freedom of conscience for all. Through discussions in lodge and actions in society, its members seek to achieve the maximum moral, intellectual and spiritual development for all of humanity. |
The Purpose of the Order
The founders' concern was with humanity as a whole and to find a way to establish a sense of unity so that human beings would be able to live together with mutual respect and dignity. Ignorance, intolerance, racism, oppression and violence are overcome not with force but with knowledge, tolerance, understanding, compassion and kindness.
Freemasons are free to follow their own beliefs, and to enjoy their absolute freedom of conscience. Likewise Freemasonry does not interfere in personal political or ideological matters. |
This is the Le Droit Humain Charter received by 16 members on April 4, 1893.
Among the signatures are Marie Deraismes, Georges Martin and Marie Georges Martin (his wife).
