So have game designers. If something has enough of a creepy reputation in the real world, then it's ideal source material for games that are going to keep the players engaged... The best part of worldbuilding in fiction or gaming is taking elements that are close enough to those that we're already familiar with, and giving us the freedom to play our way through doors we wouldn't open in real life... Escapism, fantasy, living vicariously through your character... whatever you want to call it...

Well friend its not just a matter of infiltration...some games are nothing short of tutorials as are many other games and programs.
I know this not because I am a fundementalist but because I studies the art work and religions of old civilizations for years.

dont forget about the 'masons fraternity ring" found in WoW. WoW is used also for databasing for governments. Collecting personal information on you etc. the power elite are just prepping the naive for future mental and physical domination. Many masons are not part of it, so many get on ATS and say its just a symbol, it is really, if you give power to it by giving up your rights as is happening en mass today via games and pop culture, then its innevitable that one day you will have new rights, rights to sodium flouride and lithium in drinking water, rights to food stamps and bread lines, endless wars of aggression in the name of your freedoms, police state tactics and mind control..
When its no longer about money, it becomes about power.
