What to do with my old books on Freemasonry

[Rosebud77]

My Grandfather was a Freemason, an Elder in his Church, and a fine, honorable gentleman that served in WWII, would give you the shirt off his back if you really needed it - but would also ask you to stand-up and take responsibility for your own life and actions. He never told me much about the FM; however, when the Boy Scout troop I was in, sponsored by the local Catholic Church, didn’t receive the funds to go to the BS Jamboree… somehow, money was found, a driver volunteered, kids without sleeping bags and tents had them… and all the people that brought these things were members of GP’s Church and men I had seen coming and going from the FM-Hall (had to sit in the car sometimes when GP went in to fetch something). When Father objected (politely of course) all GP said, was, “Hmm, Father, I don’t rightly know how all this was done, but a shame to deprive these young men of this event when they worked so hard to go - isn’t it Father.
Coming by the house later for Coffee and Pie?”

Now I don’t know of all the reasons FM and the CC are at odds and frankly the details don’t matter to me, Church says no, that’s enough. However, I have learned enough of the details to understand why, and that took talking to people involved with FM and reading books.
Knowledge is power, know they self, know thy friends, and know thy enemies.

So? this is irrelevant.

Our Catholic school has a paper truck and we would love to take them off your hands and will recycle them for you. We take old books every week.

No hatred here. BUT my mind and my heart and body are filled with Truth and Love and I know Jesus and that He is all we need. So why clutter with untruth? Being a “good man” has nothing to do with it. The road ot hell is wide and varied; the narrow road is better. I will not pass on or protect what is not Truth…Or give it house room. I mean OP! You know truth now so how could you pass the books on knowing them not to be truth? That would be a bad bad thing to do

It sounds like you are saying that one can be a bad person, but as long as they believe in the truth, all is okay.

So? this is irrelevant.

It is relevant to the fact that the conspiracy theories about freemasons wanting to destroy the Church slanders perfectly decent people.

Yes, God forbid anyone learns anything! The OP probably meant books ABOUT Freemasonry.

If you have so much hatred in your heart about something about which you know nothing, how about reading up on it so at least your opinion will be an informed one. That way you can dislike Freemasonry in an intelligent way, not just as a result of hearing about it from others.

I would agree; it is always better to make an informed decision then one based on ignorance.
