It is surely that you jest, Mme. Therese -- Freemasons were coeval with the French Revolution. And theirs was arguably the first attempt to combine symbology with the Enlightenment to produce a secularized religion -- a process that has arguably continued for two centuries and given birth to the New Age millennial feminism that culminates in Buffy -- the "religion without god" that your reviewer friend speaks of so articulately.
