The fraternity has no business making calls for it’s members faith. That’s the individuals choice. How can you say it’s the same thing? Where’s the logic?

“The fraternity has no business making calls for it’s members faith.”

The fraternity makes a requirement of faith, does it not? No faith, no membership. Aren’t there some lodges who still preclude the LDS as members? Why were they excluded at all to begin with?

“That’s the individuals choice.”

The fraternity already requires a belief in God, that isn’t the individuals choice. They could easily require that their member’s faith allows memebership in the Masons. Having a requirement of faith then allowing their memebers to disobey the teaching of said faith by joining the Masons would seem to defeat the purpose of the requirement in the first place.
