The opposition: what the churches and the critics said
The Church had condemned Freemasonry by name since Clement XII's bull In Eminenti of 1738; Leo XIII's encyclical Humanum Genus of 1884 renewed the condemnation for the fraternal age; and the Church's 1917 Code of Canon Law, canon 2335, attached excommunication to Catholic membership in Masonic and similar societies.
