Excerpt from Article:
by William H. McIlhany
Type “Illuminati” into an Internet search engine and you will wind up with an impossible aggregation too numerous and contradictory to be useful. A search on Ask.com yields 1.4 million entries, while the same at Google produces 12 million entries, and at Yahoo gives 33 million entries! A small percentage of these deal with genuine historical documents and reliable research by reputable scholars, but the vast majority, unfortunately, deal in fanciful fiction (of the sci-fi or mystery-action- adventure variety) or misinformation and deliberate disinformation posing as fact and serious scholarship. One of the most frequent “experts” on the subject to appear in Internet searches is New Age guru David Icke, who posits that the Illuminati are shape-shifting reptilian humanoids from the star system Draco! However, it is possible to separate the absurd and the misleading from that which is true. And in this case it is particularly important to do so. For, as distinguished historian James H. Billington, a Rhodes Scholar who has been the Librarian of Congress since 1987, illustrates in his comprehensive and thoroughly documented 1980 study Fire in the Minds of Men: The Origins of the Revolutionary Faith, it is from “Bavarian Illuminism” that “the modern revolution- ary tradition” descends. In 1996, we asked the outstanding American expert on Bavarian Illuminism and revolutionary movements, William H. McIlhany, to provide a brief survey of the history and influence of the Order of the Illuminati based on the most reliable documentary sources. McIlhany, a noted author and historian, has appeared on The History Channel, The Discovery Channel, and many other television and radio pro- grams. His detailed scholarship on the Il- luminati, secret societies and subversive movements over the past 40 years — long before Dan Brown’s Da Vinci Code and Angels & Demons made them the subject of bizarre speculation and popular comic- book caricature — has involved research in the British Museum and Ingolstadt (now Eichstadt) University in Bavaria. His per- sonal library of rare and primary source documents and scholarly literature on these subjects is perhaps the most exten- sive private collection in the United States. In 1986 he founded the Individualist Re- search Foundation. He is the author of five books, including Klandestine (1975), which helped to bring a murderer to jus- tice as dramatically portrayed in the 1996 movie Ghosts of Mississippi. The following essay first appeared in the September 16, 1996 issue of THE NEW 31www.TheNewAmerican.com — PAST AND PERSPECTIVE HISTORY The genuine historical evidence on the secret society is every bit as fascinating as the fabrications and fantasies now circulating in our pop culture.

AMERICAN under the title “Two Centuries of Intrigue,” accompanied by a three-page annotated bibliography. Centuries of Intrigue Down through the ages there have been many secret societies and conspiratorial movements that had as their goals absolute rule of the world, overthrow of all existing governments, and the final destruction of all religion.
It is possible with much study to trace the origins and developments of many such movements: The early anti- Christian mysticism of the Gnostics; the conspiracy against orthodox Islam found- ed by Hasan Saba in Persia in 1090 AD as the Order of the Assas- sins; the apostate Order of the Knights Templar, whose heretical leaders imitated the Assassins’ system for the de- struction of Christianity. From the 13th through the 17th centuries such groups as the Luciferians, Rosi- crucians, and the Levellers continued the war against Christianity that had begun in Europe with the Templars. Because a few organizational links can be found, it is even possible to establish that some of these groups were not merely imitating each other or some older system of belief. Many of these earlier movements, howev- er, have left very fragmentary evidence, so it is not possible to trace from 1100-1700 any continuing organizational structure which was engaged in a coordinated and centrally controlled plot for world rule. Early Associations By the middle of the 18th century, remnants and parallels of various destructive move- ments began to associate under a central group which was to create a continuing or- ganizational structure that would someday, its founders hoped, rule the world after all existing religions and governments had been destroyed. As Abbé Augustin Barruel documented in his invaluable study Memoirs Illustrating the History of Jacobinism, the intellectual base for this movement was laid in the mid-18th century by Voltaire, Rousseau, Diderot, and other members of the Paris Academy. This fraternity, which sought the destruction of Christian-style civilization, referred to itself grandly as the “Philosophes.” Voltaire’s influence over King Frederick of Prussia and the publication of Diderot’s Encyclopédie, beginning in 1751, testified of the Philosophes’ early success.
The conspirators hoped that the Encyclopédie would become a standard reference source wherein every literate person would seek knowledge on all subjects and thus re- ceive propaganda against civil order and the Christian religion. Its publication caused the influence of this group to grow rapidly. Voltaire bore an implacable hatred of all religions, of all monarchs, and of all morality derived from religious belief. He was obsessed with a fiendish desire for the total destruction of all three. He ended all his letters with the battle cry, “Let us crush the wretch! Crush the wretch!” The “wretch” to whom he referred, of course, is Christ and His Church. Christians, said Voltaire, are “beings exceed- ingly injurious, fanatics, thieves, dupes, imposters … enemies of the human race.” In the war against Christianity, according to Voltaire, “It is necessary to lie like a devil, not timidly and for a time, but bold- ly and always.” Enter the Illuminati Inspired by the radical Philosophes and instructed by a mysterious oc- cultist named Kölmer from what is now Denmark, Adam Weishaupt, a professor of Canon Law at the Uni- versity of Ingolstadt (in Bavaria, Germany) established a continuing organizational structure to direct the worldwide attack on religion and monarchy — a structure which would, he hoped, eventually rule the world. The organization Weishaupt Down through the ages there have been many secret societies and conspiratorial movements that had as their goals absolute rule of the world, overthrow of all existing governments, and the final destruction of all religion. THE NEW AMERICAN • JuNE 22, 200932 — PAST AND PERSPECTIVE HISTORY The storming of the Bastille on July 14, 1789, one of the great myths of history (romantically portrayed here by French artist Jean-Baptiste Lallemand in 1790), was stage-managed by the Illuminati’s agents. founded on May 1, 1776 was called the Order of the Illuminati. Weishaupt planned for the Order to maintain publicly the image of a charita- ble and philanthropic organization. It was this image which attracted so many Ger- man educators and Protestant clergymen to the Order.
When they joined they were convinced that the goal of the Order was the purest form of Christianity, to make of all mankind “one happy and prosper- ous family.” Once enlisted as novices or “Minervals” in the Order, those who were prepared for deeper commitment were al- lowed to advance to the rank of Illumina- tus Minor, where they were told that the only obstruction to the Order’s goal of universal happiness was the power being held by the religious and governmental institutions of the world. Accordingly, the leaders of these institutions — monarchs (or future monarchs) and clergymen — had either to be brought under the con- trol of the Order or destroyed. If such a prospect frightened the new Illuminatus Minor, he was kept inactive at this level until his ethical concepts were altered. As Weishaupt stated, “These [ruling] powers are despots when they do not con- duct themselves by its [the Order’s] prin- ciples; and it is therefore our duty to sur- round them with its members, so that the profane may have no access to them. Thus we are able most powerfully to promote its [the Order’s] interests. If any person is more disposed to listen to Princes than to the Order, he is not fit for it, and must rise no higher. We must do our utmost to pro- cure the advancement of Illuminati into all important civil offices.” After the candidate had proven his abso- lute devotion to the secrets of the Order, he was allowed to enter the top-level circle of initiates as an Illuminatus Major, just below the position of Rex held by Weishaupt. By now, all conventional idealism had been purged from the candidate and he was told about the real objectives of the Order: rule of the world, to be accomplished after the destruction of all existing governments and religions. He was now required to take an oath which bound his every thought and action, and his fate, to the administration of his superiors in the Order. But Weishaupt did not simply rely on the sincerity of his disciples. He set up an elaborate spy network so that all mem- The Illuminati’s influence spread rapidly, and within a few years it had recruited many influential and wealthy individuals, including many who would become key players in the French Revolution. 33Call 1-800-727-TRUE to subscribe today! Adam Weishaupt Duke of Orléans Prince Karl of Hesse Baron von Knigge Georges Danton Count Mirabeaubers would constantly be checking on the loyalty of each other. The secret police of the Order killed anyone who tried to in- form the authorities about the conspiracy. This band was known as the “Insinuating Brethren” and had as its insignia an all- seeing eye. The structure of the Order was pyramidal, with Weishaupt at the top. Beneath him were two or three immediate subordinates, each of whom had three men under his or- ders; each of those three had several men who carried out his dictates; and so on. In their correspondence, Illuminists were re- quired to use code names for themselves. Weishaupt called himself Spartacus; oth- ers were Cato, Marius, Brutus, Pythagoras, Socrates, and Hannibal. Weishaupt, who had been raised and educated by the Jesuits before rebelling against them, ad- opted much of the organizational system of the Jesuits for his Order. As a reward for selling himself totally to the Order, the top-level Illuminatus (of which there were few) was granted all the material and sensual benefits that could possibly be obtained. Weishaupt intended that “the power of the Order must be turned to the advantage of its members. All must be assisted. They must be pre- ferred to all persons otherwise of equal merit. Money, services, honor, goods, and blood must be expended for the fully proved Brethren.”
This intricate conspiratorial structure among the economic, social, political, and cultural elite in Bavaria was tremendously successful: Within two years after the founding of the Order, all but two of the professorial chairs at the University of Ingolstadt were held by members of the Order. Furthermore, it is estimated that before 1789 there were at least 2,000 members of the Order in the German- speaking lands. Many of these were min- isters, lawyers, doctors, and even a few princes. None were mem- bers of the lower classes, the agricultural working masses, or the serfs. The influence of the Order on German education and the German clergy was devastating. By 1800 many German ministers no longer believed the most basic tenets of Chris- tian doctrine. They had been converted to the worship of “reason.” Widening Influence The original writings of the Order in- cluded detailed instructions for fomenting hatred and bloodshed between different racial, religious, and ethnic groups — and even between the sexes. The idea of pro- moting hatred between children and their parents was introduced. There were even instructions about the kinds of buildings to be burned in urban insurrections. In short, virtually every tactic employed by 20th- century subversives was planned and written down by Adam Weishaupt over 200 years ago.
It was not until the summer of 1782 that the Order really began to grow in power and influence outside Bavaria. Having already contemplated the possibility of infiltrating the freemasonic bodies of Western Europe and then taking control of them, Weishaupt and his brilliant disciple, Baron Adolf von Knigge (Philo), at last had their chance. During that summer, leaders and delegates of the continental European freemasonic bodies met in a congress held in Wilhelmsbad. Acting as Weishaupt’s agent, von Knigge joined them and offered enticing promises of the secrets that the Illuminati had to offer. Von Knigge persuaded many of the German and French delegates to join Weishaupt’s movement, and they ex- tended the influence of the Order into their individual lodges. The two leaders of German freemasonry, Duke Ferdinand of Brunswick and Prince Karl of Hesse, Adam Weishaupt established a continuing organizational structure to direct the worldwide attack on religion and monarchy — a structure which would, he hoped, eventually rule the world. The organization Weishaupt founded on May 1, 1776 was called the Order of the Illuminati.

Do you believe the earth is a sphere? Do you believe that a feather will fall at the same speed as a rock? Do you believe that the Sun is the center of our universe? There are people who were burned at the stake for believing these things at one time.
I believe we must examine ALL suggestions regardless of how lunatic and flimsy they seem until we have proved them incorrect. To call someone crazy for an idea we cannot perceive based on what we've been ALLOWED to know is what's crazy.
You will never learn the truth if you don't want to, especially if you are ok with living the rest of your life believing the lies that are told to you on a daily basis. They are shoved down your throat so constantly that you don't know the difference between the truth and lies.
You end up assuming it's all lies and the truth you believe you might not care about too much. It all becomes a game but the problem is you're the only one losing, and its because of your ignorance and stupidity my fellow humans are suffering from the actions of the many.
Why should we suffer because the majority are ignorant? [/quote
i dont understand the point in this comment? the sun isnt the centre of the universe so if they were burnt for believing it they would still be wrong? and i think its stupid taking every flimsy idea and having to disprove it when there isnt any evidence to suggest its worth disproving? taking a couple of guys words for it isnt proof of anything. look what happened to charlie mansons followers? and no lies are being shoved down my throat because i hardly watch tv and i dont bother with the news, there is no game, everyone wants to feel that theres more to the world than there is, most of the majority are ignorant because people like you post a thread which may be interesting, but then cover it in an absolute outrageous statement and then if anyone disagrees you say well you must be christian carry on little sheep and down talk them. thats why you aint getting respect on this thread and thats why you got people commenting like this. if you werent so rude and ignorant i wouldnt have even started commenting in the first place
