Posted by Universal Co-Masonry on September 18th, 2019

The Masonic Philosophical Society (MPS) was established in January 2009 with an aim to provide an environment of exploration by teaching Masonic principles through dynamic discussions. The institution has a primary ambition to inspire individuals to self-awareness within the framework of Masonic principles. MPS is seeking to destroy ignorance that can divide communities in Humanity's evolution. The non-profit group provides interactive educational opportunities for adults. 

How and why MPS was spawned

In a meeting in 2008, members of Utah Freemasonry, concerned citizens, and educators discussed the alarmingly increasing of intolerance within communities. After the convention, the attendees decided to institute the new group to curb ignorance. It has an objective to promote open-minded, progressive discussions through free community-based education. Such practices will help increase tolerance, cultural awareness, and understanding of different religions and beliefs.

Under Freemasonry, the largest fraternity organization, members of MPS come from different demographics. It constitutes people from all sections of society regardless of race, creed, religion, and sexual orientation. The members of the group learn through interactive discussions and open-minded debate. This helps them grow in understanding, tolerance, and wisdom.

Unlike a regular school, MPS follows the concepts of learning through idea sharing and debating in an open forum. The group motivates adults to broaden their thinking and behavior through education. In order to study all aspects of knowledge within a Masonic guideline.
