Why are so many Freemasons Catholic?
The Catholic Church has always forbidden Catholics from joining the Masons and that rule has not changed today. Therefore, there are few, if any, Catholics in the Masons and those that are do so in violation of Catholic rulings.

Can Knights of Columbus be Freemasons?
Freemasons do not consider membership in the Knights of Columbus to be a bar or impediment to membership in Freemasonry. Many Knights might consider the traditional hostility of the Roman Catholic Church to Freemasonry as a reason not to put their names forward as candidates for Freemasonry. But there are certainly many Catholic Masons, and there are certainly Masons who are Knights of Columbus as well.

Why does the Catholic Church have its own Masonic Order?
The Catholic Church does not have its own Masonic Order. In fact, Catholics are not to join the Masons. However, the Catholic Church, at least in North America, has the Knights of Columbus which is a fraternal and service organization.
Is the US government supporting masons?
First, let me tell you my opinion about the Masons. Masons are a bunch of smart people who like to talk with the members of their club about things that are important to them. Everything else you hear, is most likely a conspiracy. I am NOT saying that it is impossible for the Masons to have bad things going on in their club, but I find that idea highly unlikely. Now, back to your question, I think that the Masons have some sort of support from the government in some way. There are MANY people in the government who are Masons. 15 of our presidents were Masons.
Are the masons a cult?
No, for the simple reason that Freemasonry does not have a central charismatic figure that Masons obey or exalt; nor does it require that Masons put Freemasonry before their job, family or God. In fact, they encourage the opposite. The Freemasons are no more a cult than the Baptist or Catholic church.
