My dad is a Mason, as was his brother and also my grandfather. I am not. Mason frends ask why -- I have no answer.
It is interesting to note, though, than MANY founders of the early fraternities were from Masonic backgrounds. That includes the founder who wrote our Ritual. Because of that, many fraternity rituals are supposedly (I'm not an expert -- just what I've read) very much like the Masonic initiation.
ETA it just occurred to me that both my Grandmother and Step Mother were Eastern Stars, as well.
