No it is way before that; the ancient fertility cults were practised in Canaan before God destroyed the Amorites.   On Tue, 27 Dec 2005 11:01:12 EST [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:  Blainerb:  Freemasonry is obviously descended from the time when the Jews returned from the Babylonian captivity to Jerusalem to rebuild their temple and the walls of the city.  It is one thing to  say such as you have stated below, but quite another to show beyond reasonable doubt that your assertions are correct.  If you wouldn't mind, I would like to double-check your sources.      In a message dated 12/27/2005 8:04:59 A.M.
