I was naively in a college fraternity (DTD), and their ritual was copied almost directly from the masons.

The fraternity members would take on the roles of Greek deities in the ritual.

Two years later when I got saved, I renounced the membership.

Yeah, I’ve heard that many fraternities are like that. I never had any interest in joining, but my sister joined a sorority at a Catholic university. I wonder if hers did anything like that.

Whatever that was, it wasn’t the freemasons.

I’ve never seen a initition ceremony that was an allegory based on the Holy Bible.
