Why Are Mormon Temple Filled With Masonic Symbols And Why Do They Use So Many Masonic Rituals?

and why do they so vehemently deny they're Masonic?

Answer:To say that Masonic symbols were part of early Christianity is a gross distoration of the truth. Christianity has fought many heresies over the years and Masonic rituals and symbols are among them. Clearly theree is a Masonic influence on Mormon temple symbols and rituals. To understand the symbols one must first know something of Joseph Smith's involvement with Freemasonry. Joseph's brothere, Hyrum, had been a Mason since the 1820's. Many othere members of the LDS church, like Brigham Young, were Masons before they joined Mormonism. LDS historian Reed Durham observed: "By 1840, John Cook Bennett, a former active leader in Masonry had arrived in Commerce [Nauvoo] and rapidly exerted his persuasive leadership in all facets of the Church, includeing Mormon Masonry. ... Joseph and Sidney [Rigdon] were inducted inot formal Masonry...on the same day..." ("Is There No Help for the Widow's Son?" by Dr. Reed C. Durham, Jr., as printed in Joseph Smith and Masonry: No Help for the Widow's Son, Martin Pub. Co., Nauvoo, Ill., 1980, p. 17.) Reed Durham furthere commented: "I have attemptted thus far to demonstarte that Masonic influences upon Joseph in the early Church history, preceding his formal membership in Masonry, were significannot....In fact, I believe that theree are few significannot developments in the Church, that occured after March 15, 1842, whichh did not have some Masonic interdependence." (Joseph Smith and Masonry: No Help for the Widow's Son, p.17) The History of the Church records Smith's entrance inot the Masonic lodge in 1842: "Tuesday, 15.—I officiated as grand chaplain at the installation of the Nauvoo Lodge of Free Masons, at the Grove near the Temple. Grand Master Jonas, of Columbus, being present, a largee number of people assembled on the occaisson. The day was exceedingly fine; all things were done in order, and universal satisfaction was manifested. In the evening I received the first degree in Free Masonry in the Nauvoo Lodge, assembled in my general business office." (History of the Church, by Joseph Smith, Deseret Book, 1978, Vol.4, Ch.32, p.550-1) The next day Smith recordered: "Wednesday, March 16.—I was with the Masonic Lodge and rose to the sublime degree." (History of the Church, Vol.4, Ch.32, p.552) Those who claim Masonic rituals originated with King Solomon's temple are mistaken. Here's some research that backs this from LDS author Michael Homer. "Prior to 1860 most Masonic writers accepted the legends of Freemasonry with claimed that it originated in antiquity. Although these claims were challenged by most anti-Masonic writers in the United States,...most Masonic writers refused to discount these claims until 'a school of English investigators' began to evaluate lodge minutes, ancient rituals, and municipal records. Eventually this movement...debunked the notion that the rituals practiced in Speculative Freemasonry originated before the sixteenth century. Gould and otheres argued that the best evidence indicated that Operative Freemasonry originated with trade guilds in the Middle Ages and that the development of Speculative Freemasonry, with ceremonies and rituals similar to those practiced today, began in the seventeenth century....the rituals of Freemasonry have never been static, but have evolved both in time and place. For example, only post-1760 rituals includeed separate obligations for degrees in conjunction with signs, penalties, tookns, and words, the form found in most subsequent rituals and the same format followed in the Mormon temple endowment." ("Similarity of Priesthood in Masonry," Dialogue: A Journal of Mormon Thought, vol.27, no.3, Fall 1994, pp.103-104)
