“While no one knows exactly when or how Freemasonry was really formed, the most widely accepted theory is that it evolved out of the guilds of cathedral builders and stonemasons that arose during the Middle Ages. As cathedral buildings began to decline, some guilds and associations began to accept honorary members in order to boost their membership numbers. Modern Freemasonry lodges are considered to have developed out of these guilds. According to the Masonic Service Association of North America, the symbolism that is used in Freemasonry rituals is considered to have come from the medieval era.” p.2 pp.2 The History of the Freemasons Finally Explained by Marina Manoukian
“In an article in the book GRAND LODGE 1717-1967, which was published by the United Grand Lodge of England in 1967, Bro. Harry Carr wrote of the Transition Theory as though it was an established fact. This is unfortunate as, although the book was an official Grand Lodge publication and therefore bore the stamp of authority, the opinions expressed in the articles were those of the individual contributors, not necessarily approved by the United Grand Lodge of England. Nevertheless, many brethren have assumed that Bro. Carr's account was officially accepted. It must therefore be emphasized that his views have been challenged by several writers since then; and, as he had to admit to me, there is not a shadow of proof to support the theory he had put forward.”

This was back in 1992 when Brother C.N Batham wrote this and unless something new has come out to challenge these statements which I am not aware of as of yet, but I could be wrong, then why does the rest of the Masonic world still hold to this theory?
