Was a time, not too long ago, when people knew it was impolite to ask how much you made, where you went to church and what you did behind closed doors with another consulting adult.

Asking where they go to church is impolite? I’ve been impolite a great many times then. I usually ask first, if they attend church, if not I invite them to mine. If they already have a church, they usually tell me where.
Back in the early 80s, I asked the Master of my Masonic Lodge that question and he informed me that he was Jewish and where he attended services, then he asked me about my church. Altogether a very polite conversation.
Yes indeed, Jews are welcome in Masonic Lodges and shocker of shockers, we have Catholic members too.
The only thing that we don’t allow in are non believers in God, which disqualifies all Islamists.
I interesting. Does your Masonic Lodge exclude only Islamists, or does it exclude all Muslims. including the anti-Islamists? I’m thinking in particular of the Ahmadi Muslims.

Infidels of every denomination no doubt.
As, per Thomas Jefferson, the men who articulated the Virginia Act for Religious deliberately intended.
"the insertion was rejected by a great majority, in proof that they meant to comprehend, within the mantle of it's protection, the Jew and the Gentile, the Christian and Mahometan, the Hindoo, and infidel of every denomination."
From “Thomas Jefferson, July 27, 1821, Autobiography Draft Fragment,” page 538
What does this mean?
Certainly if anyone would benefit from Truth's natural weapons - Free Argument and Debate - it's individuals for whom Islam has fraudulently assumed dominion over their faith.
