The Knihts of Columbus are a club for Italians. That's what all these groups are, clubs for people who share something in common. Although you may be correct that they are similar to or orginating from some sort of Masonic tradition.

I'm not too clear on what Rotary, Lions, Elk and Shriners etc are but I suspect I will probably have to join one when I get older. I always thought it was just an excuse for middle aged men to get together and drink beer and act juvenile while doing charity.

Well, Carno, you got me curious so I looked it up. I was off (but not too far off) - here is the info:
