Albert Pike is regarded as America's most eminent and influential Freemason. His statue sits in Washing DC in Judiciary Square. This is the only statue in the District of Columbia honoring a Confederate General. His ashes are in The House of the Temple - The Masonic temple in Washington, D.C.
The book he authored Morals and Dogma is given to Freemasons, however most have never read it. If they did actually read it, they most likely would not be a Mason in the 1st place. Morals and Dogma is an esoteric (occult) book of ceremonies and rituals. Some quotes from the book and Albert Pike include:
"Yes, Lucifer is God, and unfortunately Adonay (God of Christianity) is also God. For the eternal law is that there is no light without shade, no beauty without ugliness, no white without black, for the absolute can only exist as two Gods: darkness being necessary to light to serve as its foil as the pedestal is necessary to the statue, and the brake to the locomotive. The doctrine of Satanism is a heresy; and the true and pure philosophic Religion 'is the belief in Lucifer,' the equal of Adonay; but Lucifer, God of Light and God of Good, is struggling for humanity against Adonay, the God of Darkness and Evil.” -(Morals & Dogma, Page 220)- Albert Pike
Yes, he said Lucifer is equal to God and God is bad and Lucifer is good.
"The Masonic religion should be, by all of us initiates of the high degrees, maintained in the purity of the Luciferian doctrine." - Albert Pike
“LUCIFER, the Light-Bearer! Strange and mysterious name given to the Spirit of Darkness! Lucifer, the Son of the Morning! Is it he who bears the light … doubt it not!” -(Morals & Dogma, Page 321)- Albert Pike
Modern Freemasonry is an extension of ancient Pagan religions. They are a revival of the mystery religions of Babylon and other ancient nations. This is apparent in their customs and in the use of ancient Pagan symbols such as the Egyptian Eye of the Horus.
"Masonry is regarded as the direct descendant, or as a survival of the mysteries... of Isis and Osiris in Egypt..." - [Robert Freke Gould, Past Senior Grand Deacon of England, Vol. 1, p. 13, History of Freemasonry; New York, 1884].
