i have yet to see a documented case of a major religion expelling a memmber or prohibiting membership.

Wacky one off churches do not count.

There are more independent, autonomous local churches in the United States than there are numbers of churches which belong to denominations.

Major religion? Whacky.

I don’t know of any cases of expulsion either. But, I think the point is more than this. If one’s church discourages or opposes freemasonry on doctrinal grounds, saying, for example, it is incompatible with their faith or church teaching... that should matter if the person is honest and serious about being a member of this church.
