yes, there were changes with vatican II, however it does not rule out the masons. the function oftheir secret oath is to get rid of organized religion (all religion) and live in a natural state without any form of law whether it be religious or governed. the only reason we know this is from people who left the order. they do have many beneficial practices within their order, however their basis is quite different from a sorority or fraternity. thanks for asking!!!

I must disagree. I have taken the Masonic oath, and since memorized it. The oath makes no reference or inference to"get rid of organized religion (all religion) and live in a natural state without any form of law whether it be religious or governed."
I have thuroughly enjoyed the organization and it's members. Also, I know of no policy that forbids the initiation of Catholics.
