It's a fraternal organazation, made up of totally non catholic individuals. It began many many years ago and there are some reasons why the Catholics aren't allowed, something to do with something a pope did at one time. It's been so long I can barely remember that much. However, most of the founding fathers of America, were Free Masons.
