Logic and reason were something the founders held in high regard, authoring many books to teach their subjects in this area. They wanted to enlighten America. The problem shouldnt be with Masons, because the teachings are nothing but helpful.
People want to attribute all of our modern evils to them just because some powerful men who are associated with Masonry seem to be part of those evils. But this is ignorant.
Until you can prove ill in the actual teachings themselves, there is no basis for associating Masonic wisdom with modern evil.
