Really? And you know this from first hand or just what you have been told? I joined as a Mason more than 30 years ago. And I NEVER saw anything that was anti Catholic. Because somebody in the Church decided it was “demonic” and said all Catholics would be committing a grevious sin against
God, I had to make the choice between what I was told was sinful, or no longer support Masonry. My God and my faith come first. When I asked my local priest why it was sinful, other than the Church saying it was, he answered “I don’t know.” I missed the fellowship I had with my brothers, but as I said, my God comes first. I keep my masonic oath.

I'm sorry, but if you kept your masonic oath, I don't think your "god" comes first..

Freemasonry is incompatible with the Catholic faith.

HUMANUM GENUS ENCYCLICAL OF POPE LEO XIII ON FREEMASONRY

We clearly saw and felt it to be Our duty to use Our authority to the very utmost against so vast an evil. We have several times already, as occasion served, attacked certain chief points of teaching which showed in a special manner the perverse influence of Masonic opinions.
