Eh, in the USA at least, Freemasons is a do-gooder boys' club,
  like Rotary or Elks Lodge or whatever. People use it to make
  business connections, etc.

  They love to play up the spooky mystery side 'cause it's good
  for their image but it's just an old fashioned lodge .. which is
  probably kinda fun. I'm just not much of a joiner.
