First, I'm not Roman Catholic, but I am a Freemason. 

The reason I'm not Roman Catholic has nothing to do with Freemasonry.  If the Church we to announce tomorrow that the ban were lifted, I wouldn't show up at the Cathedral of SS. Peter and Paul tomorrow.  My reasons are theological and of some of polity.

That said, while I see nothing wrong in Freemasonry, I respect the Church's position, though I disagree with it.  If I woke up tomorrow as Pope, I'd remove the ban and leave it to the individual's Catholics conscience.  I would encourage all those that join to an exemplar of the faith, by their conduct, even in lodge.  I agree with the canon as interpreted by Franjo Cardinal Šeper.
