I can see a bit of a comparison there.

Or even biblical...
1 Corinthians 3:11-13
For no one can lay a foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw, his workmanship will be evident, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will prove the quality of each man’s work.
And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment, so Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many. To those who eagerly wait for Him. He will appear a second time, apart from sin, for salvation.
His mom will appear MANY times; just to keep us straight.
--Rome
Heh, well see I know just enough about handyman stuff around the house that even when laying brick or other stone works, you’ll use at least a little scrap lumber. Or when pouring a concrete walkway, as I have done. Heck, we used a broom at the end of that job to apply texture to its surface - after using a straight wooden board to make it even with the timbers that formed its borders.
However, the post I originally questioned referenced “poor guys being unwittingly initiated into Satanic cults for some free lumber,” and I decided then and there that if it involved lumber being given out...
I wouldn’t mind swearing fealty to our very own Basement Cat. She lays in doorways intimidating the dogs (to her obvious delight) and gets demanding of treats that she sometimes pukes right back up on the sheets. Far as De Evils, she’s a tolerable Mistress of my fate. Especially for free lumber. ;o)
I have now spent too much time scratching my head over the connection (or not) between masonry or freemasonry and wood. So much so that I have remembered the firebox in our fireplace needs new fire-caulking and then seasoning in case we are reduced to burning wood to keep warm this coming winter. Dangit, yet another handyman task on my list.
