This TubaCast interview seats Grand Master Mason Gerson beside engineer Leo and asks whether Freemasonry came from Atlantis. Gerson claims equality is the same right for himself and the other person, while liberty lets each one keep a thought even if the other disagrees. Money and social rank, he says, do not set that standing. He distinguishes ordinary employees from older free professionals who submitted neither to the pope nor to local law. The Freemasonry he practices, he states, began in 1717 and exists to support each member’s spiritual and personal growth. Human law is described as something built for the needs of its period and still full of faults. The close of the talk turns to a creator, for believers and nonbelievers alike, and pictures a quantum vacuum that reduces matter through molecules, atoms, electrons, a nucleus, bosons, and quarks.
Key points

- Gerson dates the masonry he practices to 1717 and links it with inner development.
- A quantum vacuum image is used near the end to speak about a creator for every listener.
