May 1, 1776, was the most important date in Freemasonry's Luciferic New World Order Plans. On that date an obscure Jesuit-trained professor of canon law at the University of Ingolstadt in Bavaria, Adam Weishaupt, founded a secret society called the Ancient and Illuminated Seers of Bavaria (AISB for short). Illuminati was founded on a mixture of Masonic secrets (Luciferic Doctrine), Islamic Mysticism (Sufism), and Jesuit mental discipline (Hatha Yoga). A unique and dangerous element was it's scientific use of the drug, hashish, to produce an "illuminated" state of mind--derived directly through the Knights Templar's association with the Order of the Assassins (circa 1050 AD).
Illumination had long been a cherished component of Masonry and other occult groups. The Masonic candidate requests, and is promised "light in Masonry." As he goes up the ladder of initiation, he receives "more light". It is because of this society's emphasis on illumination that the AISB became known by its more common title, the Illuminati.
The term Illuminati, is the plural of the Latin, Illuminatus, meaning "one who is illuminated." Thus, it means a person who has received the full extent of the initiation that is available through Freemasonry.
Masks of the Illuminati
Technically, an Illuminatus is a Master Mason who has received all the "light" Masonry can bestow. He is beyond 32° and even beyond 33°! Such people are known as the Masters of Masters of the Temple, and collectively are known by several names other than the Illuminati.

“There has not been and there will not be a place for the unfit. The fit will lead, and if the unfit are not coming along there is no place for them....In the Age of Enlightenment there is no place for ignorant people. Nature will not allow ignorance to prevail.”
- Transcendental Meditation guru Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
Most of the elite were born elite. Their upbringing is steeped in tradition and is a kind of secret society in of itself. Their father was a Mason, his father was a Mason, his father's father was a Mason. Perhaps while growing up the child heard stories of his father's involvement in other secret groups.
“There exists in the world today, and has existed for thousands of years, a body of enlightened humans united in what might be termed, an Order of the Quest. It is composed of those whose intellectual and spiritual perceptions have revealed to them that civilization has secret destiny . . .
The outcome of this 'secret destiny' is a World Order ruled by a King with supernatural powers.
This King was descended of a divine race; that is, he belonged to the Order of the Illumined for those who come to a state of wisdom then belong to a family of heroes-perfected human beings.”
Manly P. Hall 33° Mason, The Secret Destiny of America
This man is certainly in the position to know. He is regarded as the number one Masonic authority on these matters. So here again we see the plan of a new 'World Order', only this time we're told the philosophy behind such a belief. He also informs us of the conspiracy's antiquity.
It goes back to their belief in Atlantis and the subsequent migration of priestly kings after the destruction of the continent. This body of 'enlightened humans' settled in the Nile delta, and passed their knowledge to the Ancient Egyptians. Who in turn, kept these secrets safe, only to be revealed to initiates of the mystery schools. This is why Masonry is so rife with Egyptian symbolism. Freemasonry itself, they teach, was originally practiced in Atlantis. Before the destruction of their civilization (either by their own hands, or punishment from God) these Atlantians were said to have a worldwide culture (ruled by one king), a perfect religion and science.
Michael Howard, an excellent researcher of this ' occult conspiracy,' summed up his own findings this way:
“A very important aspect of the work of the secret societies has always been the ultimate unification of the world religions. This aim was based on the restoration of the pre-Christian Mystery Tradition, which had been persecuted by the early Church and forced to go underground in medieval Europe, and the recognition that all religions had originated in a universal spirituality referred to as the Perennial Philosophy, the Primordial Tradition or the Ancient Wisdom. The mystical beliefs of the secret societies were, and indeed are, based on the Hermetic maxim 'As above-so below' which teaches that the natural world is a material reflection of the spiritual. It forms the esoteric basis for the Ancient Egyptian Mysteries, Gnosticism, Esoteric Christianity, the Cabbala, the Hermetic tradition, alchemy and societies such as the Templars, Freemasons and Rosicrucians. The occult doctrines of geomancy, alchemy, astrology and sexual magic taught by these secret societies were used as symbolic metaphors illustrating the progression of the individual from material darkness to the spiritual light of understanding.”
- The Occult Conspiracy: Secret Societies - Their Influence and Power in World History (pp. 170-171)
All of these paths eventually leads the initiate into a belief system that he is privileged and chosen to carry on the 'Great Work' or 'The Plan', that he is above the rest of humanity, he has become 'Illumined'. Therefore imposed rule is a 'right'. The ONLY allegiance is to the 'Light'. It is no coincidence that Illuminati, in its literal translation means-'bearers of light'-Lumen, derived from Lucifer, 'angel of light'. That, my friend, is the final secret of the illuminati. One World Government under one World Religion, ruled by one King. It is nothing but an evil imitation, a counterfeit of the Kingdom of God.
In Beyond the Light, William Schnoebelen describes his experiences in witchcraft and Masonry. As he climbed up the ladder in both disciplines, he found himself square in the face of the Illuminati:
“The branch of the Illuminati into which I was inducted was supposedly directly descended from European Chapters of the AIBS....Was I not part of a higher form of humanity? This is what I had been deluded into believing by Illuminism. I was told I was the next step up in the ladder of evolution, and that Illumined Ones were as far above human beings as people were above apes!
From somewhere...Weishaupt produced the 'Law of Fives.' His original inner council was structured around the pentagram (symbol of the Blazing Star, Sirius). According to our teaching, this inner council was made up of five men: Weishaupt's friend, Kollmer, Francis Dashwood (of the Satanic Hellfire Club), Alphonse Donatien De Sade (where we get our word 'sadism'), Meyer Amschel Rothschild (founder of the great banking house) and Weishaupt.”
Enforcing secrecy within the Illuminati was done in the same manner as in the Greek Mystery Schools and Super-Masonic Organizations. The candidates were required to confess compromising information about themselves i.e., sexual indiscretions, and previously hidden criminal behaviour as if he were confessing his sins to a Catholic priest. This reminds one of the rites conducted in another secret society of fame, namely, the Order of the Skull and Bones. There's plenty of evidence to suggest the orders are one and the same, or at least the modern version of Weishaupt's order. Moreover, if Weishaupt's Illuminati were to survive it's "supposed" abolishment, besides its obvious survival in higher Masonic degrees, the Order of the Skull and Bones would be a worthy and powerful candidate.
It must be realized, however, that Weishaupt's Ancient and Illuminated Seers of Bavaria (AISB) was only an outward manifestation of the Illuminati. The plans uncovered for the overthrow of all the governments and religions of the world were certainly giving to Weishaupt by that most "august body"; here and there only hinted about. They represent the "new man" of marxism; the race of perfected ones that Hitler – after a face to face meeting – had said were terrifying. The Secret Chiefs; whether human or some form of higher-intelligent beings. The Secret Brotherhood who desire to usher in the Golden Age of totalitarian rule.

Dont forget Sept 11 1991 when Bush Sr made the first open calling for the New World Order. I wiash at that time we all had the foresight to see that it would take a major step forward 10 years later.

It's either that or Terry and his friends want us to trust in Jeebus. After all, The Enlightenment was the Satanic Stepchild of the Illuminati.
What do radical Fundamentalist Theonomic Dominionist Christians want most? That's simple; they want to revoke the enlightenment and bring back the good old days. You remember those, don't you? They were called the dark ages.

Uh huh. Dark Ages.
I kept wondering why Bush would have been chosen to be part of all this. You have explained it Seamus.

I have to take serious offense to these kinds of posts, since some truly great men in my family were high-degree Masons. My grandfather doesn't go to the Shrine to plot how to take over the world. He goes there to sing in a choir and for the yearly rib feed. And he's either 31st or 32nd degree.

Managing Editor, Scottish Rite Journal
Recently and regrettably, Freemasonry has been misunderstood and then, for whatever reason, demonized and vilified, sometimes by members of churches, to the extent that a response to the critics of Freemasonry is necessary.
...
First a bit of history. Freemasonry has, by tradition and, in some cases, by rule, not responded to its critics. This silence has been misinterpreted by many. They presume that silence gives consent or that Masons do not have the facts to refute attacks and, therefore, remain silent. Recent attacks on Freemasonry have became so virulent that a response is necessary. Please understand, Masons do not object to differences of opinion or reasoned criticisms. Freemasonry is not perfect. There are many things to correct or improve. We are working to resolve many of these problems and thus improve Freemasonry.
...
Let me say this clearly and emphatically: Freemasonry is NOT a religion. It is a fraternity based on moral principles and dedicated to the overall ethical and educational improvement of its members. If it has any relation to religion at all, it is as a complement to faith. We often say, "Masonry makes good men better." Many, many new Masons become more active in their church after becoming Masons. Why? Because Freemasonry stresses values central to most churches and to our nation. Also, Freemasonry was a crusader for "family values" before the term became politically correct. In addition, Freemasonry was been a defender of personal conscience, political freedom, and individual liberty long before George Washington and Benjamin Franklin took Masonic vows to support and extend the Masonic ideals of Brotherhood, Relief, and Truth.
Because Freemasonry stands squarely for the Constitution and all the fundamental freedoms bequeathed to us by the writers of that great document, 13 of the 39 signers being Masons, Freemasonry has always been attacked by those who would limit liberty. Freemasons were among the first to be persecuted by Hitler, Mussolini, Franco, Stalin, and the Ayatollah Khomeni. And so it has always been. Freedom is the lifeblood of Freemasonry. That is why Freemasons were central to the creation of the United States and why tyrants and dictators of every sort, upon coming to power, immediately stigmatize Freemasonry and persecute its members. Today, as in the past, Freemasons are defenders of First Amendment rights and the concept of liberty. We are not opposed to differences of opinion, but we are opposed to lies and deliberate manipulations of the truth.
We believe the attacks on Freemasonry have come to malicious slander and the unjustified and unconscionable tearing down of one's neighbor rather than the building, with him, of bridges of understanding and cooperation. Undoubtedly, some of the anti-Masons are sincere. Possible, they cannot see beyond the misconceptions foisted on them by those who promote themselves at the expense of others. Freemasons are saddened to see this exploitation.
We are outraged, however, when men of God promote what they must know to be falsehood. What excuse can one offer, for instance, for the Reverend Pat Robertson's book The New World Order? Despite the ready assistance of a research staff, Robertson trucks out, with no qualifications at all, what we Masons often call "the lie that will not die," the assertion that Albert Pike, a late 19th-century leader of the Scottish Rite of Freemasonry, advocated a "Luciferian doctrine" advising Masons to worship the Father of Lies, Lucifer.
Pike never wrote these words. They come from a notorious atheist and pornographer, Gabriel Jogand-Pages, who wrote under the pen name of Léo Taxil. Taxil wrote some bogus "Instructions" to Scottish Rite Masons, supposedly from Pike, as a device to expose the credulity of the Catholic Church, an institution he hated as much as the Masonic Lodge that had, with good sense, rejected his application for membership.
Taxil publicly exposed his own hoax on April 19, 1897, but the hoax lives on, savored by anti-Masons who never tire of trundling out this hoary story though even the slightest of research efforts would reveal it was unmasked by its inventor and disproved nearly a century ago!
Similarly, the Reverend Ron Carlson of Eden Prairie, Minnesota, in one of his radio broadcast sermons, quotes Albert Pike's Morals and Dogma. (Ironically, Pike is read by more of Masonry's foes than by Masons.) Rev. Carlson in what must be the 10,000th expose of so-called Masonic secrets, quotes Pike as saying on page 545 of Morals and Dogma:
"All the mysteries [meaning Masonic "mysteries"] should be kept concealed, guarded by faithful silence, lest it should be inconsiderately divulged to the ears of the Profane. He sins against God who divulges to the unworthy the Mysteries confided in him. The danger is not merely in violating the truth, but in telling the truth."
[Then Carlson continues saying,] "Albert Pike says it is a sin to divulge the truth. Now how different this is from what we read in God's word."
Ironically, the truth is that the Reverend Carlson is not quoting Albert Pike. Here is what Pike actually wrote in Morals and Dogma. Previous to the quotation noted above are the words, "St. Ambrose, Archbishop of Milan, who was born in 340, and died in 394, says in his work De Mysteriis." In fact, the words Carlson attributes to Pike are actually the words of St. Ambrose. Pike was quoting St. Ambrose on what that Christian Father taught regarding the Christian Mysteries, NOT any alleged Masonic mystery.
This is what Masons object to: not differences of opinion or open, fact-supported discussions, but the fabrication of slanted truth, half truth, and outright untruth. I do not know if the intent of such anti-Masonic authors as Robertson (whose father was a Mason) and Carlson may be to deceive the gullible or if they themselves are deceived by their biased view of Freemasonry.
Most certainly, Freemasonry is not about paganism or devil worship. Most certainly it is not un-Christian or anti-Christian. Most certainly it is not "secretive" or "closed." All men of good character who believe in God are welcomed to Freemasonry. Then, through a series of Masonic lessons, called "Degrees," moral principles are taught that support a man's personal faith, whatever his denomination; that enhance his dedication to his family and country; that encourage his participation in the life of his community in a variety of civic and philanthropic ways.
...
Nor do we claim this Masonic philanthropy outreach as any means of personal salvation, any way by which a Mason might believe he is paving his way to Heaven. Salvation, grace, and faith are within the province of the Church. Freemasonry, as a fraternity, has nothing to say about salvation. The Bible is guide enough for every individual when it says faith without works is dead.
Clearly, faith without understanding or toleration can only divide people. Religions, transformed into single-minded zealotry, become fiercely competitive. Many claim for themselves the exclusive mandate to speak and act for God. In contrast, Masonry believes religious differences between human beings are how we respond to God, the Father of all, Who is continually pouring His love and His blessings on us. The Masonic Fraternity has its deepest roots in Christianity and, therefore, espouses the central teaching of the "New Law" as taught by our Lord Jesus Christ, "to love one another." Freemasonry is dedicated to helping men of every faith to live by principles fundamental to Christianity. The attacks on Freemasonry, in my opinion, display little of the love, joy, and peace of Christ. Instead of love, they offer hate; instead of knowledge they offer bias; instead of the joy of spiritual self-fulfillment, they offer a thirst for battle; instead of peace and harmony, they offer violent verbal attacks... |
Is that the answer you're looking for, Nollej76?

Not all masons are bad, I know some that are good people however I dont think you could arguee that secret societies have no buisness in the operation of goverment reguarless if they are Masons or Skull & Bones.
