Are Christians and masons enemies?

Catholics I know have pointed to the fact that Masons are a secret society and shied away from them. Baptists and Protestants have joined the Masons, even preachers I have known. In the late seventies, Moody Monthly listed Masons and Eastern Star as cults. While Masons read the Bible, it seems to be more of a ritual or a "work." Some of the secret practices of freemasonery seem to be rather silly to Christians or even "dark" practices that do not honor God. There is evidence that Joseph Smith was a mason and that Mormon practices include those very similar to freemasonery. If nothing else, the Mormon Temple practices are secret, like those of the secret society called The Masons.
