On The Sect Of The Freemasons. Encyclical Letter. Authorised Transl

This historical document, originally written by Pope Leo XIII in 1884, provides a scathing critique of the Freemasons and their influence on society. The Pope argues that the Masonic movement is fundamentally opposed to the teachings of the Catholic Church, and warns of the dangers of joining such a society. A thought-provoking read for anyone interested in the history of religious conflict.
