Freemasons require belief in a supreme being. Knights Templar are a sub-group who require members to be Christian.
Are these guys a threat, or are they just kooks?

First, no Mason worth their sash would approve of graphics this crappy:
And this misuse of capitalization borders on offensive:

I don't see that Harris has much to do with it though. Sure, one of her aides is involved. But is she responsible for what her aides do on their free time?

It wasn't Harris; it was one of her aides.
I remain skeptical. Masonic conspiracy theories are a growth industry.
