The see "Lucifer" as the "lightbringer"
There are plenty of connotations packed into that term.
What's important to take away from what the masons think is that there are mystery religions which have been obscured from old, which tell a much more clear picture.
the masons understand well enough that the three branches have been one all along. they've been used the same all along
hell, we were told a couple thousand years ago
>I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.
They know the three religions were invented to keep the cattle controlled
they know the old religions have been forgotten, the ones that spoke of ancient prophecies and of ancient events
Most seem to be of the opinion that the masons had been infiltrated and their hidden knowledge has been contorted to worship satan.
But, as you say, they worship "Lucifer", the "light bringer". See, these kinds of people don't seem to think in terms of objective good or bad. what they're really insisting is that the one called Lucifer will bring light to darkness. hell there's even subtle mention that the light will bring pain, but that it will ultimately cleanse the world… whatever that means
