What is the relationship between the Freemasons and Opus Dei?

Best Answers

Yes, Freemasons have been, can be, and are (more often than is thought) Catholics, which means that they might be also members of Opus Dei because Freemasons are not prevented from participation in other social organizations as long as they do not commit any criminal (or, unethical) acts. read more

Freemasons on the other side have always defended the freedom for every members to believe in any religion, including catholicism. read more

Opus Dei is a very orthodox Catholic organization which is committed to the proposition that the Catholic Church is the one true Church and that all people are called by God to join it. read more
