Not even 75 years ago. My grandfather died over 50 years ago and he was a life long mason. He was a retired dairy and crop farmer and a good Methodist. He was a mason because it was a way to contribute to the community.I know exactly what I'm talking about. There's nothing nefarious going on. Not at the high level. Not at the low level. Perhaps 75+ years ago there might have been more to it, but to think modern day freemasonry has anything nefarious going on is absolutely ridiculous.
