“La fraternité maçonnique n’est que la substitution de la philanthropie basée sur des motifs naturels à la charité chrétienne, appuyée sur des considérations d’un ordre surnaturel. Nous acceptons également la fraternité maçonnique, tout en regrettant qu’elle soit si étroite, si mesquine, si peu dévouée. Si cette fraternité est entendue dans ce sens qu’elle met le frère maçon au-dessus de l’accomplissement d’un devoir civil, nous la répudions comme un attentat contre la société.”

La Guerre occulte, les sociétés secrètes contre les nations, 1925

Only one power has not allowed itself to be deceived, the Catholic Church. She is the inexorable enemy of all Masonry. It is certainly known to you that any Catholic is automatically excommunicated the moment he becomes a Mason. The Church knows very well why she is so inexorable. She herself works on Masonic principles; her religious Orders, in particular the Jesuits, are nothing more nor less than powerful lodges of the Catholic Church. She knows what she has herself achieved with this system and will suffer no opposition lodge, using every means to prevent her sheep from straying into it. One cannot be misled by the explanation that the Church is against the Masons because they pay hommage to liberal ideas. By now, these ideas have made such progress even inside the Catholic Church that warnings and prohibitions ont that account are out of place. The inexorable stand of the Catholic Church against Masonry is the best proof of how accurately we have summed it up. Only the foolish Evangelical parsons have still not realized what is at stake. They join the Masons without realizing that they are digging their own graves.

(...) of course i can't put the criminal's confession on the table before you with his own signature to it. To get a clear picture you must examine the activities of the Masons in the last two centuries under the microscope. Then you can confirm this: leading Masons had a part in the overthrow of every governement: They had a hand in every severe financial crisis which has brought the economy of a country to the edge of the abyss. Masons occupy the important positions in the economic and intellectual life on a country and draw other Masons after them. The decisive men who waged the First World War against us were Masons. The Second World War again finds World Masonry united against us. In some Anglo-Saxon countries it's quite impossible to achieve any position in industry or politics unless you're a Mason. Arent't these proofs enough (...)?
