From Erjen's link. "Here [Masonic meetings] you have aristocrats and merchants and schoolteachers and Lord knows what, all breaking bread together and treating one another as equals. Are they equals in reality? No, they are not. No way. But, this does create a kind of ideal that brothers can be equals. " Not much specific mention of the Enlightenment though, in the whole piece if any. I'm only bothering take up this dull thread with this reply as it is a slow evening here. Slow evening. Yeah, right. Wild horses couldn't keep you away.

There is a certain fascination about pointing out how much of a dick you are making of yourself on historical intellectual or philosophical subjects, aided by YouTube and crappy articles you don't fully understand!

That's why I posted the link, so that people can read it and decide for themselves. IMHO it was a crappy article. You seem to need a lot more research before you start the book!
