Can a Morman be a mason?
Yes. Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) may belong to the Masons or other fraternal groups, so long as doing so does not interfere with their service to the Church. It was quite common for the early Mormons to be Masons, but there was also a time when Mormons were discouraged from being Masons. Now, Mormons may be Masons if they choose, but it is not very popular since many Mormons devote a lot of time to their church and family responsibilities.
