Question:
Why does the Catholic Church look at Freemasonry as a religion when it most definitely is not?
Answer:
Actually, in contrast to an Elks Club, a Moose Lodge, or a Rotary Club, Freemasonry is indeed a religion, and that’s a key reason why the Church forbids Catholics from becoming Masons. For more on this issue, see one of our previous answers.
