In this episode of The Masonic Roundtable, we delve into the foundation of a nation with The Grand Masonic Experiment. We explore how the early builders of the United States—men like George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, and numerous other founders—drew upon the principles, values, and architectural symbols of Freemasonry to construct a brand new republic. Our Knights discusses the alignment between Enlightenment philosophy, Masonic ideals of liberty, equality, and toleration, and the literal formation of American governance. Join us as we examine whether the birth of the nation was an intentional application of the Craft's blueprint, and how those foundational values continue to challenge and inspire us today.
