Everything else you mentioned is more on the other side of things... and while it may seem silly while one is on the outside..... Once inside, things become more clear... and true, while we are not at liberty to discuss things, it is an educating and memorable experience.... I hardly believe that a man like George Washington would be a member of such an organization just for an excuse to go out drinking... I also don't believe that a man such as himself would be part of an organization if he felt that it was a self degrading or a juvenile organization.... Just my .02
