What is a Mason?
This is probably the most popular question. Even though Masons (Freemasons) are members of the largest and oldest fraternity in the world, and even though almost everyone has a father or grandfather or uncle who was a Mason, many people aren’t quite certain just who Masons are. A Mason (or Freemason) is a member of a fraternity known as Masonry (or Freemasonry). A fraternity is a group of men who join together because: There are things they want to do in the world; There are things they want to do inside there hearts; They enjoy being around a group of men whom they respect and share the same ideals. This represents the most practical answer to this question.
