Freemasonry has many Symbols used within its Rituals. By implication, would this classification make these Symbols Religious?

 

 -------------- COMPASSION --------------

"The principle of compassion is that which converts disillusionment into a participatory companionship. This is the basic love, the charity, that turns a critic into a human being who has something to give to – as well as to demand of – the world."
-- Joseph Campbell, Pathways to Bliss
