The guy may have made the comment in anger after listening to the minister blast the Masons. That being said, I would think that any person hearing that man’s comment would know that is impossible. How could any mortal man a Mason or otherwise, possibly have the last word over God?
The minister did not “blast” the Masons. He simply would not allow them to participate in his part of the service.
The Mason interrupted him. Once the minister was done and ended the service. The Masons then did their thing. The minister simply wasn’t going to associate his roile with Free Masonry.
