Let’s Talk JW’s and Freemasonry

So there’s been some lowkey talk about the Governing Body’s connection to the Freemasons like when their rings have been seen on certain GB members’ fingers during talks, etc. I’ve also done my own research and found a possible connection to Charles T. Russel and the Freemasons, but no absolute 100% proof that they’re affiliated. I’ve even looked at decade old posts on this sub. Nothing is super conclusive, so let’s go ahead and bring that topic back up so we can see if anyone has found or knows new information on this. If it can be proven, this could be huge and possibly pivotal in the eventual downfall of this cult.
