My grandfather was a 33 degree mason. When the exposed to him the rights of passage (and cost) to go up one more level...he flipped. He kept his power and title but completely abandoned the mason creed and turned (privately).
He did however, disclose the compartmentalization and the hidden truths about the top level oaths and roles to "us"....his descendents.
Summerized, it is dark and corrupt at the top. Enough said.
