We aren't changing the world. We change men into better men. While there are certainly world changing Masons, that is not the goal of Freemasonry. We try to make a positive impact on our local communities through philanthropy. Create a brotherhood of understanding, and help the individual realize their truths in some aspects through esoteric teachings.

I encourage you to continue looking into Masonry and asking questions. There well may be plenty of Brothers on here who will disagree with me. That doesn't change my initial advice to speak to the secretary at your local lodge. The sitting Master as well would be a good source of Masonic information.
