The all-seeing eye was a reference to an all powerful God long before Masons began to use it in adornments and rituals. Masonry incorporates into it’s practices to represent the same thing, (God), that other institutions including the church, have used it to represent for millennia. The fact that it is in the arch over the alter of a Catholic church is unlikely to have any Masonic meaning whatever.
