ERASURE OF ECLECTIC FREEMASONRY AND MASONIC REPUBLICANISM IN U.S. ORIGINS AND CONSERVATIVE AND CHRISTIAN-ZIONIST REVISIONISM
ECLECTIC FREEMASONRY CONTRIBUTED TO CHRISTIAN PLURALIST developments in U.S. origins alongside classical republicanism. Protestant, Christian-Zionist and conspiratorial revisionists indirectly and directly contribute to the erasure of eclectic Freemasonry and Masonic Republicanism, by falsely rooting American history solely in “Judeo-Christianity.” This erasure distorts civic education. True American Republicanism is pluralistic, humanist, and tied to ancient theosophies, pluralists and eclecticism — not monopolistic Abrahamic frameworks. Particular dominating Christian narratives scapegoated esoteric and Masonic currents while erasing their role in republican foundations. Ignoring these layers leaves citizens unable to fully understand or practice U.S. government. Citizens lack the philosophical map to navigate their own government, cannot practice the virtue-based self-rule republicanism demands and thus cannot reform or defend it effectively. This is not abstract history, and it is why understanding it is key to political reform for all citizens.
