Symbology will be their downfall. I was seriously surprised at all the "cool" people involved. I really thought the Masons were a dopey social ckub for old suburban folks. I based this on masonic doodads found at estate sales. Interestingly, I usually went in search of vintage Catholic items, and when there was masonic junk, there was never Catholic stuff. A memory from the 60s - there was a huge masonic temple in our town and they threw the best dances for teens. I vaguely recall being engaged in conversation with some adults who were probably recruiting. The whole thing was creepy. More recently in our new location a man was shot in the head. Allegedly an initiation gone wrong with a live round instead of a blank.
