Hush, its a secret.
Any time something is kept secret, there are going to be people that find the situation suspect. They feel like the only reason to remain secret is to do evil. In fact, in the first & second century, Christians were often accused of conspiracies. They met in private, addressed each other as "Brother" and "Sister", met each other with a kiss, and were heard to speak of drinking the blood and eating the body of the "Son of God". Can you guess what rumors popped up? That they participated in incestuous orgies, and cannibalized young children. Seems unbelievable but conspiracies are not new.
How many Brothers know that there was a political party in 1828-1838 called the anti-masonic party. They ran against Andrew Jackson with the support of James Monroe and John Quincy Adams. The person they ran was actually a Mason himself, William Wirt. Later they won a considerable number of seats in the 23rd Congress(1833-1835).
