Ask one to be one?

The current group of claimed 'palestinians' may take issue with that.

Certainly, and I'm sure there are a number of Christians that don't accept the fact that they are practicing a Middle-Eastern religion.

I don't get it either. But I'm not a joiner or follower. But someone else commented that it was similar to the 1%er bikers. I started a thread last year about meeting a real Outlaw MC member. You know usually you run into support clubs like the Iron Cross or Black Pistons. But they aint the same thing. Anyway, I got taken to the wood shed on that thread. Guys calling me a fan boy and other stupid ****. All I was trying to do was point out that it's a different experience cause you know you're standing there talking to a dedicated criminal who will do pretty much anything for his MC.

Sure Masons and Shriners are a world apart from that but I still don't want nothing to do with them. Seems to me that a lot of their ceremonial **** came from middle eastern traditions and I damn sure don't want to be involved with that. Plus, I'm not all that religious but I remember a line from the Bible that goes something like " You shall have no other God before me."

Masonry is revolved around the Bible. Everything that maonry stands for is in the Bible. Most everything about masonry is in the Bible. The masons of ga have a home in Macon for children. They come live there until they can go home or they are educated and adults.
People are always afraid of what they don't know...

My step dad was a mason and a shriner. What they did for his funeral was very interesting and something I am glad I got to see.

...and Christianity is a "middle eastern tradition".

Okay as I said before, I'm not the most religious person. But a lot of the Mason/ Shriner symbols look pretty Arabic/ Islamic to me. I was fully aware of the origin of Jesus and Christianity. I just think that there is some Arabic type ceremonial stuff going on there. You know, your basic Ali Babba bull****.
