daughter the New Age movement are in the Anglican/Episcopal church this data is given.Are we not to judge a tree by its fruit? Some of the top leaders of the New Age havecome out of the Episcopal church, and now in their pulpits some of the most anti-Christian, and some of the most perverted people are preaching.MANY OF THE VERY TOP LEADERS ARE MASONSIt has been popular for the Archbishop of Canterbury to be a Mason. The following aresome of the Masons who have been at the top of the Anglican/Episcopal hierarchy:IN ENGLANDDr. Geoffrey F. Fisher, Archbishop of Canterbury beginning in 1945. He was initiated intoMasonry in 1916 and before he became the Archbishop and Primate, while only anAnglican Bishop. He became the Grand Chaplain of the Grand Lodge of England in 1937and 1939.William Howley, Archbishop of Canterbury (1828-1848) and important Mason.Henry Chicheley- another Archbishop of Canterbury and important Mason.IN CANADASamuel Pritchard Matheson (1852-1942) Bishop and primate of all Canadian AnglicanChurches from 1909 to 1930, initiated into Masonry in 1874.D.T. Owen (1878-1947), 33°, Primate of the Church of England in Canada, andArchbishop of Toronto.IN THE UNITED STATES (Also refer to the earlier listing of Bishops and Priests)Henry St. George Tucker, Presiding Bishop of the Protestant Epis. Church in the USA1938-46.An overview of the extent of Freemasonry within the Anglican church can be seen inan article by London's Daily Express which lists the numbers of Masons in the highestAnglican offices in 1960. In 1960, there were within the Anglican church, 13 MasonAnglican Bishops, including one Canadian and 6 retired. The Archbishop of Canterburyand the Archbishop of the West Indies were both Freemasons. Also there were 6 Deansand Provosts of Cathedrals and 10 Archdeacons (incl. those retired) who were Masons. 10It's amazing that so many men have dedicated their lives to the Masonic Institution.Bear in mind that these men as they were initiated in Lodge were told in the ceremony,"No institution can boast a more solid foundation than that on which Freemasonry rests,the practice of every moral and social virtue." Yet, the Scriptures declare that "For noother foundation can be laid except that which is Christ Jesus." To accept otherwise isa denial of Christianity.The reader can now understand better the common complaint that one of therequirements in order to rise in the Anglican hierarchy is to be a Mason.
