This would be an excellent argument, except the Masons came first. Would it not be more fitting to say that much of the form and some of the substance were synthesized into a uniquely Mormon model designed to bring those initiates of its ceremonies closer to God?

By the way, the Shriners have been mentioned. Are they not a truly wonderful organization for providing free health care to many sick children with their many hospitals? They deserve a salute.
