Ah, so I see now that I have visited this thread. Hehe...
I sorta agree... I did like what they appeared to be about from what I have read. A rather clever bunch, admirably so. Unfortunately, the secret
nature of such a group prevents us from knowing what changes have taken place over the centuries. I use Illuminati as a blanket term and I should stop
doing that.
If the Illuminati do still exist and are good, then I would guess they are powerless. Still may be a wonderful group to join. But its clear which
"hand" or "path" is in control today. Which makes sense since more and more wealth is being concentrated in fewer and fewer hands, and since
wealth is power, this gives staggering amounts of power in the hands of a few, and as we all know, power corrupts so we have staggering amounts of
corruption at the highest levels.
I believe man was only meant to have a certain amount of power over others. It's like a drug for some. It does something to people...
I don't know why there is not a public illuminati today. It would not be illegal, would it? Just a bunch of people interested in the furtherance of
human knowledge and whatnot... Many people think that such a grand idea could not have been defeated and so they look for it, they try to figure out
what "modern" incarnation it may have taken.
I may have been a little brash in my earlier replies. I've matured some, I would like to believe. Good day to you sir.
