Former President Joe Biden, who identifies as Catholic, took a significant step just before his presidency ended. On January 19, he was granted “Master Mason membership” along with “full honors” at the Most Worshipful Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons in South Carolina.
This move has sparked a buzz, as it goes against the Catholic Church’s canon law, which traditionally forbids Catholics from joining Freemason organizations. Involvement with the Freemasons can potentially lead to excommunication, making this decision particularly noteworthy for Biden.
The ceremony’s announcement was made by the Conference of Grand Masters, with the 27th Most Worshipful Grand Master, Victor C. Major, recognizing Biden’s service to the nation. The statement read: *”Herefore, be it resolved, that I, 27th Most Worshipful Grand Master, Victor C. Major, on behalf of the members of the Most Worshipful Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of the State of South Carolina, hereby confer membership upon President Joseph R. Biden, Jr. in recognition of his outstanding service to the United States of America.”* This acknowledgement places Biden among a select group, as he becomes the 16th American president to join the Freemasons.
The Prince Hall Freemasonry is a significant chapter in the Masonic tradition, known for its historic ties to African American heritage. Founded in 1775 by freed African slaves, it carries a unique legacy within the broader Masonic fraternity.
The Freemasons themselves are a fraternal organization shrouded in rituals and customs. While they require a belief in a “supreme being,” the group is not strictly aligned with Christian teachings.
Historically, the Catholic Church took a hard stance against its members joining Freemason ranks. Before 1983, canon law dictated automatic excommunication for Catholics who joined the Freemasons.
Although the revised canon law no longer mentions the Freemasons specifically, it still warns against associations that are seen as working against the Church. This leaves room for disciplinary action, including the denial of communion.
The potential implications for Biden’s Catholic faith are not yet clear. Both the Archdiocese of Washington and the Diocese of Wilmington have yet to comment on whether Biden might face excommunication or be barred from receiving communion. This silence keeps many in anticipation of how this situation will unfold.
The Conference of Grandmasters has also not provided further comments regarding the membership of Biden in this prestigious lodge. Their recognition of his achievements highlights the intricate balance between personal beliefs and public service roles that leaders often navigate.
This development has attracted attention from various quarters, including media outlets like the Daily Caller News Foundation, which reported on the event. The foundation operates independently, offering its content to news publishers and ensuring broad audience access. Their reporting on this issue underscores the ongoing interest in Biden’s decisions and their wider implications.
The Freemasons, with their storied history and secretive nature, remain a subject of fascination and controversy. Biden’s association with them adds another layer to his already complex public persona. His decision reflects a blend of personal conviction and a nod to historic organizations that have shaped American society.
Questions about the ramifications of Biden’s new Masonic membership remain. The Catholic community and observers alike are curious about how this will affect his standing within the Church. The ongoing dialogue between religious traditions and modern affiliations continues to captivate and challenge societal norms.
As Biden steps into this role within the Freemasons, the conversation about the compatibility of such affiliations with Catholic teachings persists. His actions invite a broader discussion on faith and leadership, highlighting the nuanced paths public figures often tread.
This situation places a spotlight on the evolving relationship between historic religious doctrines and contemporary choices made by public figures. Biden’s decision to join the Freemasons, despite potential religious consequences, speaks to a broader narrative of individual freedom and societal evolution.
As the story continues to develop, the public and religious communities are left to ponder the implications of Biden’s Masonic connection. This moment serves as a reflection of the ongoing dialogue between traditional beliefs and modern affiliations in today’s world.

Enough reason not to be associated with Freemasons.
I’m a Catholic all my life, so what I’ve had a problem with for many years and especially over the past couple of decades is “what took so long to give that Demoncrap the boot” out of the Church! I’ve known without much effort that Biden is totally “demonically infected” and “serving the father of all lies!” He’s one of the most blasphemous corrupted persons to have ever been in the US Government and call himself a Catholic; he’s not any form of Christian and is actually all things antichrist! And just while we’re on the subject look what he produced for a son who was in need of so many blanket pardons, and they do say “the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree” for a reason! Evil Criminals and followers of Satan!
Oh, BTW The Freemasons have been in the Vatican for a long time so I try to balance any major news event release and developments with the fact that deception is a huge part of the fallen world where manipulation of minds and hearts is constant and in essence we troubled souls are lucky to be treading water and not being sucked down into the undertow straightaway; as long as we are hanging in there and breathing we’ve got a chance to make it out here with our souls going to eternal life; we’re being tested daily!
Back to my main point of those deceitful nefarious cultists in the shadows; at times what seems to be going on isn’t the real deal and other times when we really have no definite clue suddenly revelation appears practically out of nowhere as to is really happening! Sort of like being caught in a three dimensional chess game when we only can see two dimensional!
I just like the fact that the very first word of this article means everything. “former”! The day I do not have to hear the corrupt Biden family’s name, will be a good day for America.
Got to love it; I agree!
“….Former President Joe Biden, who identifies as Catholic….” As do so many others in that DemonRAT party. Nearly ALL of them not just distance themselves from the Catholic Church’s position on ‘Abortion,’ they fully support that cause up to and beyond birth! With now over 70 MILLION American abortions since that infamous, misbegotten, SCOTUS, legislating from the bench, decree making abortion some “RIGHT,” I believe that America is already paying the Piper for the destruction of “God’s Gifts!” In any event, there will be more than a few “Brought To Justice!”
Firewagon I quote: “God’s Gifts!” Quite true and chastisement by God is upon our Nation and the world! Since 1973 over 63 million abortions here in the US and over 1.5 billion globally!!!!! I’d say that alone puts the human race in great jeopardy and in need of a final judgment!
You can add to this that the Presbyterian Church actually has clergy and ministers that absolutely promote abortion and say it is fine; so another sign of the times that a so called Christian Church is now pushing just what this former blasphemous fraud POTUS Biden has pushed as in his first 100 days in office he appropriated 468 $Billion by executive order exclusively to be used for abortions up to and including day of delivery!!!!!! That is not a believer in Jesus Christ or any kind of Genuine American President and that money was about 19 Times more money than Obama the previous abortion king did in his 8 years of destruction! I just pray that more Americans are totally waking up now to how evil and dark things have been allowed to become and that we all need to fight that now like our lives depend on it just like the unborn babies lives!
Nothing will happen to Biden on this earth because the relevant clerics don’t have the balls to do anything. In fact, they’ll probably congratulate him.
Morefandave; then guilt by association and passing the buck on one of the most blasphemous acts as God sees it by human beings, will put them in hell with Biden! Those clerics chose the wrong profession; they should have chosen to be stockroom clerks or some other less consequential jobs!
Joe identifies as Catholic in the same sense as some people with XY chromosomes identify as women.
Morefandave; I’d say it doesn’t matter what he says or identifies with now because he already hung himself a long time ago as far as God is concerned, this can be easily determined by placing his actions up against the Scriptures! His judgment is coming and can’t be revoked, may as well call himself AMERICA’S MAN OF PERDITION!
Odd, the Free Masons are against the Pedophiles protected by the Vatican elite!
Cardinal Law was one.
Got to call a spade a spade and what we’re dealing with in there is Satanists! Illuminati are all tied into this global cabal and all roads don’t lead to Rome, but they do lead to Satan and hell in this case!
It’s all like a 3 dimensional chess game only exponentially more difficult to outsmart the multiple layers of lies and deceptions!
Ephesians 6:11-13 “Put on the full armor of God, so that you can make your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this world’s darkness, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13Therefore take up the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you will be able to stand your ground, and having done everything, to stand.”
Amen.
Thown Out?? …Down the steps? Okkk
No bruises, blood or broken bones, do it again!
no problem.
He said he’s a zionist so the demonic (fake) jewish talmud is more his speed
Anyone who cares and has their wits about them should recognize by all of these disconcerting facts and developments along with the massive conflicting forces at play not just in America but throughout the world, that humanity and this realm we now reside in is facing a cataclysmic coming; which is well deserved and necessary!
Maybe that sounds scary to many but the reassurance in it is that human beings are not as in control as they at times believe themselves to be, and “the One who actually is in charge of it all and has the final say in everything” is going to slam-dunk everyone sooner than most want to believe, in this highly egotistical, materialistic and secular modern world!
Elon can nix his crazy “Occupy Mars” Program even for his entertainment purposes, because there isn’t enough time to get that off the ground, and that kind of money and resources could be better spent; as it actually boils down to being a joke on those that put any stock in such flights of fancy and stupidity!
I see how foolish, arrogant and sinful we so called human beings have become and how we far exceeded what any of our ancestors could have been in this regard, even when compared to those that dwelled here before the Great Flood or those who were obliterated at Sodom and Gomorrah.
Time to wake up!
