Man don't do it. But if you must read a book by Albert Pike called "Morals and Dogma". Albert Pike was a 33 degree mason, who founded the KKK and was a civil war criminal, but of course he was pardoned. He's the only person not elected that has a statute in Washington D.C. In his book "Morals and Dogma", he explained that until you are at the 30th degree, it will be revealed that the true god you worship is "Lucifer". There are other books out there that speaks about that. Also, Manly P. Hall who was also a 33 degree mason wrote on the subject also. You can also go online and there is a wealth on information on the subject of Freemasonry, what they worship, and the true doctrine of their organization. In short; it's a satanic cult, that the average member don't go past the 3rd degree: Master Mason. Research it first before you get involved with that. I ask, if knowledge is so great, why must it be kept so secretive. Also, there is the "York Rite" and the "Scottish Rite" sects, and guess what, those 2 rites do don't, I repeat do don't allow black people in. So the other sects that initiate blacks, don't have the same prestige as the whites only brotherhood. Check it out.
