I ask this:
Many of the University “Greek” organizations are just as secret, and have very similar rituals, as the Masons.
(You can go to the Library of Congress and get most of any initiation ritual, for any organization. Perhaps a few of the words will be blacked out, but you can get the basic idea.)
Why did the Catholic Church not resist the “Greek” college societies?
Simple: It was the HISTORY that embarrassed the Church, more than any particular problem with Masonic practices in general.

Oh, brother. Here comes the anti-Catholic nonsense.
