Titled incorrectly, not informative, very needlessly complicated
Published by CBomb , 2 months ago
Loved the title and hoped for some useful and interesting information, but didn't find any. Lots of history, but too much barely uninteresting, long-winded verbiage that doesn't relate well to the title. Also, too much name-calling. Very opinionated without supporting facts.

This was not at all about the title. It should have been called "History Of The Masons". That's all it is about.
