Most Masonic Lodges are men only while The Daughter of the American Revolution is restricted to women. Trying to distinguish these organizations from a Country Club is equally as sensible as debating how many angels can dance on the head of a pin. The basic idea of freedom is to allow people to do what they want so long as it does not hurt others. As I’ve told my children, you have every right to swing your arms, but that right ends where another person’s nose begins.
