Podcasts about Adam Weishaupt

Virginie Girod raconte l'histoire des Illuminatis, une société secrète fondée au XVIIIe siècle qui suscite aujourd'hui bien des fantasmes. En 1776, le jeune Bavarois Adam Weishaupt (1748-1830) fonde un club très sélect afin de porter les idées des Lumières. Très vite, la société est interdite. Pourquoi est-elle alors au centre de nombreuses théories du complot deux siècles et demi plus tard ? Distribué par Audiomeans.

The Illuminati For centuries, whispers of a secret society pulling the strings behind world events have persisted. From government control to pop culture manipulation, the Illuminati has become one of the most famous and enduring conspiracy theories of all time. But is there any truth to it? In this episode, we explore the real history of the Illuminati, its alleged modern influence, and the theories that claim the secret society never truly disappeared. Episode Highlights: The Origins of the Illuminati The Bavarian Illuminati (1776) – A real secret society founded by Adam Weishaupt in Germany, meant to promote Enlightenment ideals and challenge monarchies and religious control. Goals & Structure – Operated in strict secrecy, recruited powerful individuals, and sought to influence politics from behind the scenes. Suppression & Disbanding (1785) – Banned by the Bavarian government, but some believe it simply went underground and continued in secret. The Illuminati's Connection to Modern Conspiracies Freemasons & The New World Order – Theories suggest the Illuminati infiltrated the Freemasons and continued working behind the scenes. Major Historical Events – Some claim the French Revolution, U.S. Founding, and world wars were secretly influenced by Illuminati ideals. Symbols of Control – Alleged Illuminati symbols (like the All-Seeing Eye and pyramids) appear in currency, architecture, and corporate logos. Pop Culture & The Illuminati Mythos Music Industry Conspiracies – Stars like Jay-Z, Beyoncé, and Kanye West are rumored to be Illuminati members, using occult symbols in music videos. Hollywood & Mind Control – Theories about MK-Ultra, celebrity breakdowns, and hidden messages in films. Super Bowl, Awards Shows & Hidden Rituals – Large public events allegedly contain Illuminati symbolism, mass conditioning, and hidden messages. Real-Life Events Linked to the Illuminati The French Revolution (1789-1799) – Some believe the Illuminati orchestrated the fall of the monarchy. JFK Assassination (1963) – Theorists claim JFK was killed for challenging the secret elite. The Moon Landing (1969) – Alleged staged event to push a global control agenda. 9/11 & The War on Terror – Conspiracies suggest the event was designed to increase government surveillance. The Great Reset – A modern theory claiming the Illuminati is using economic and political crises to create a one-world government. The Big Question: Is the Illuminati Real? Why People Want to Believe – The idea of a secret elite pulling the strings makes the world feel more structured and explainable. The Power of Influence vs. Direct Control – Secret societies do exist, but are they really orchestrating world events or just powerful networking groups? Final Verdict? – There's no solid proof of a global Illuminati, but history has shown that small elite groups can and do influence world affairs.

Depuis l'avènement d'Internet, des rumeurs prétendent que les élites de la pop mondiale comme Beyoncé, Rihanna, Jay-Z ou Madonna seraient membres d'une société secrète : les Illuminati. Le succès de ces artistes serait dû à leur allégeance présumée. Des allégations qui suscitent l'intérêt et alimentent de nombreuses théories du complot. L'Ordre des Illuminati est une société secrète bavaroise, fondée en 1776, par le professeur de droit canonique, Adam Weishaupt. Influencé par les idéaux progressistes des Lumières tels que la Liberté et l'Égalité, il promeut l'éducation de la raison, en opposition à l'obscurantisme religieux qui sévit alors dans la société.

This isn't a meditation, but I think a rather delicious companion to my video about Adam Weishaupt and his secret society in Bavaria. Sometimes you have to learn about things that appear unrelated, so that you can see the connections. A few more breadcrumbs for you on the journey through the forest. Discover the secrets of Skull and Bones, Yale University's prestigious secret society founded in 1832. Renowned for its influential alumni in politics, finance, and beyond, this society is steeped in mystery and intrigue. I tried to cover its shadowy origins and unique rituals, including Tap Day and coffin confessions, while examining its iconic symbols like the skull. Often associated with conspiracy theories and elite networks, Skull and Bones exerts significant influence through its exclusive connections. They have stuff to do with elections, presidents, global finance and whether you believe or not...Time Magazine. Despite the evolving landscape of power, Skull and Bones remains a powerful emblem of ambition, secrecy, and legacy. Let's try to figure out how this enduring society continues to shape future leaders and maintain their power and influence in today's world. Or just play it in the background while you do the dishes. Who cares about secret societies that rule the world any way? If you want to say hi you can stop by the Discord ( https://discord.gg/dXKjhZrZmM ) or visit www.idiotmystic.com.

Step into the shadows of history with "The Hidden Hand: Unveiling the Global Conspiracy," a powerful exposé that dares to reveal the secrets of a world dominated by unseen forces. Based on the notorious 1967 recording by Myron C. Fagan, this presentation uncovers the chilling truth behind the Illuminati's centuries-old plot to control global events and manipulate the masses. From the founding of the Illuminati in the 1760s to their modern incarnation within the Council on Foreign Relations, this account delves deep into the machinations of international bankers, shadowy elites, and covert operations that have shaped the course of history. As wars raged and nations fell, the masterminds behind this grand conspiracy pulled the strings from behind the scenes, influencing the rise and fall of governments, the spread of communism, and the destruction of religious faith. Now, for the first time, this suppressed information is brought to light, challenging everything you thought you knew about the world around you. Prepare to question reality, as we explore the terrifying agenda that aims to enslave humanity under a one-world government, driven by the sinister forces of the Illuminati.Introduction and Context (0:00 - 0:40)Opening Remarks: The recording begins by introducing the concept of a world where nothing is random, and major global events are preordained and documented long before they occur.Myron C. Fagan: The speaker highlights that the recording was made in 1967 by Myron C. Fagan, a Hollywood writer who allegedly uncovered dark secrets within the Hollywood elite. Fagan dedicated his life to exposing these secrets, and the recording is presented as the culmination of his work.Purpose of the Recording: The recording claims to provide a historical lens through which the listener can understand the alleged hidden forces at play in the world. The content is framed not as conspiracy theory but as documented historical fact.The Illuminati and Media Control (0:40 - 6:25)The Illuminati: The recording introduces the Illuminati as the central force behind a global conspiracy aimed at destroying the sovereignty of the United States and enslaving its people within a one-world dictatorship. This conspiracy is purportedly unknown to the majority of Americans.Media Control: The recording asserts that the masterminds of this conspiracy have absolute control over mass communications media, including television, radio, press, and Hollywood. This control is claimed to extend to manipulating news and information to brainwash the public into accepting a one-world government.CIA and Media: There is a brief exchange where the speaker discusses the CIA's involvement in media, with allegations that the agency has paid contributors to major American journals, television networks, and news services like AP and UPI.Historical Origins of the Conspiracy (6:25 - 10:05)Adam Weishaupt and the Illuminati's Founding: The recording traces the origins of the Illuminati back to Adam Weishaupt, a former Catholic priest who, under the influence of the Rothschild family, founded the Illuminati in the 1760s. The Rothschilds are said to have financed the operation, which allegedly promoted every major war since the French Revolution.Council on Foreign Relations (CFR): The recording claims that after World War I, the Illuminati in the United States rebranded itself as the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), which continues to control the U.S. media and government.Press Control: Weishaupt's plan is said to have included gaining absolute control over the press to manipulate public opinion in favor of a one-world government.Illuminati's Influence and Strategy (10:05 - 15:01)World Wars and Revolutions: The recording details a supposed plan by Albert Pike, an Illuminati leader, to instigate three world wars and several revolutions to advance the conspiracy. The First World War was allegedly aimed at destroying the Tsarist regime in Russia and establishing atheistic communism.World War II and Beyond: World War II was purportedly orchestrated to build up communism to rival Christendom, with a final goal of leading to World War III, where political Zionism and Islam would destroy each other, leaving the world exhausted and ready for the Illuminati's control.Final Social Cataclysm: The recording claims that Pike foresaw a final social cataclysm, where nihilists and atheists would be unleashed, leading to the destruction of both Christianity and atheism, paving the way for the public revelation of Luciferian doctrine.The Role of International Bankers (15:01 - 19:08)International Bankers and Wars: The recording asserts that international bankers, particularly the Rothschild family, have financed both sides of every war and revolution since 1776. These bankers are said to be the true masterminds behind the global conspiracy, using wars to further their goals.Control of U.S. Finances: Jacob Schiff, a Rothschild agent, is introduced as a key figure in establishing control over the U.S. financial system. Schiff's mission included taking over the U.S. monetary system, promoting influential individuals into high government positions, creating racial strife, and destroying religion.Civil War and Post-War Influence (19:08 - 22:05)Civil War Efforts: The recording claims that the Illuminati's first concrete efforts to take over the U.S. were made during the Civil War, with Rothschild agents embedded in both the Confederate and Union governments. Abraham Lincoln's assassination is tied to this conspiracy, suggesting that Lincoln opposed the Rothschilds' plans, leading to his murder.Post-Civil War Influence: After the Civil War, the Rothschilds allegedly regrouped and continued their efforts, with Jacob Schiff arriving in America to carry out the conspiracy.Final Phases of the Conspiracy (22:05 - End)One World Government: The recording concludes by describing the final goal of the Illuminati—a one-world government controlled by a few elite individuals, including the United Nations, the CFR, and influential billionaires.Rothschild's Influence: The Rothschild family is depicted as the primary force behind the global conspiracy, with their agents, like Schiff, laying the groundwork for the financial and political control necessary to achieve their goals.Conclusion: The recording ends by reiterating that the global conspiracy has been in motion for centuries, with all major events in history being part of this master plan. The final objective is a one-world government, with all other forms of government and religion eradicated.This recording is presented as a detailed exposé of a global conspiracy led by the Illuminati, with historical events, wars, and political movements portrayed as orchestrated by this secretive group to achieve world domination. The content is delivered as a mixture of historical narrative and speculative interpretation, with the overarching theme of a hidden hand guiding the course of world history toward a predetermined outcome.

I know...background music and the founder of the Illuminati , I must have really lost it. Maybe I have. But everything has a reason. This is specific period in seemingly linearly progressing time, so I touched on the life of the founder of the Bavarian Illuminati because it is in important narrative that has affected the world you see before you to a degree that you may not realize. Instead of making bold claims, well maybe I made some, I just wanted to tell you the story of the person that started some stuff that kind of got out of hand. But then again, can people even start things? Or is it all coming from somewhere else? A lot of people like to tell me tha there is no consensus reality. So maybe this never happened? Maybe Adam Weishaupt was never born? Maybe he never had an entire life and maybe the Illuminati never existed? Maybe the founding fathers of the United States weren't travelling around Europe meeting with members of the Illuminati prior to its founding? Maybe literally everything this video is about is a ridiculous fabrication. If it is, I encourage you to find that which is not. And hope that you never find your way into this forest of lies again. But if...if there seems to be some truth here. Maybe there's more truth somewhere else. And I think we should look together. We can talk about here if you want. Or somewhere else. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/idiotmystic/message

In 1776 Adam Weishaupt, a respected German professor of Canon Law, founded a covert revolutionary group – The Illuminati – a secret society dedicated to destroying repressive regimes and shaping a world government in terms of Liberty and Equality. These ideals surfaced with violent emphasis during the French Revolution, which many saw as the work...

Fondé à la fin du XVIIIe siècle par Adam Weishaupt, alias Spartacus, ce club très sélect inspiré de la franc-maçonnerie a attiré parmi les plus radicaux tenants des Lumières et a très vite été interdit. Dès les premiers temps, la presse et l'édition s'emparent de l'affaire avec, à la clé, des tirages phénoménaux. En France, l'abbé Barruel leur attribue toute la responsabilité de la fin de la monarchie, résultat d'une conspiration visant à asservir l'humanité tout entière. Les Illuminaten ont disparu mais le mythe des Illuminati est né. Il est aujourd'hui encore extraordinairement vivace. La publication récente des correspondances des Illuminaten, la restitution par Moscou des archives françaises volées par les nazis, la découverte inattendue au Mexique d'une correspondance privée de Bartholdi, sculpteur de la Statue de la Liberté, permettent enfin de faire l'histoire du mythe et de la réalité d'une société secrète au succès fulgurant. L'historien Pierre-Yves Beaurepaire, professeur d'histoire moderne à l'université Côte d'Azur et membre de l'Institut universitaire de France, est notre invité par téléphone pour Xpresso.

Health for the body:Health for the soul:The pope recently came out against corruption at the Vatican and also took a strong stance against Freemasonry, saying the values of this secret society are “incompatible” with the Catholic faith. For those who know their history there is great irony in these words, and today we will learn just how ironic they are by looking at the Alumbrados, the Jesuits, the French Revolution and the history of occult organizations like the Freemasons. Spoiler alert: these all have something in common.

We begin w/ the Bavarian Order's origins, Adam Weishaupt, & the assertion of Rosicrucian & Masonic author Alistair Lees' that Thomas Jefferson was in fact initiated into the society of illuminists via Edmund Burke. From there, we trace Skull & Bones' lineage back to the Illuminati via this earlier Phi Beta Kappa society at William & Mary, which will have major implications on our discussion of the British & Germanic revivals of the Illuminati in the fin de siècle / turn-of-the-century. To sum, this 2 parter is largely an exercise in demonstrating how basically every occult order & secret society in the early 20th century can be both mapped & connected by said British & German Illuminati revivals. I may return w/ an even more forensic set of notes, but here are some of the major figures, orders, & topics that we tether together in this investigation rooted in brand new, cutting edge evidence sourced from the archives of the Christian Masonic "Societas Rosicruciana in Anglia": The initiatic succession of Illuminati-paranoia in hip hop; Skull & Bones; Ezra Stiles—alchemist, cabalist, & Yale President; the Bushes; Howard Taft; Gog & Magog and their commingling sex magical & apocalyptic symbolism for Bonesmen; the fact that Bonesman Howard Taft's ancestor Patricia recently published an op-ed running interference for the Z**nist project w/ a weird racial bent to it; Sabbatai Zevi; Sabbateans & Frankists; cabala-influenced Yale societies; the history of the Illuminati from seemingly anti-monarchical to capitalist-reifying holding pattern; some wonderments re the ongoing genocide & the apocalyptic & cabalistic symbolism of the Oct. 7th "attack"; pansophism; colonial Christian cabalists like John Winthrop the Younger, Daniel Leeds, & the Mathers;... Bringing it up to the Illuminati revival, we discuss: how Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, theosophist, & Freemason William Wynn Westcott was initiated into a revived Illuminati via Theodore Reuss, the German spy & infiltrator of Marxist movements; along the way, we learn about a number of recognizable figures from past EPs who were either initiates of Illuminati revivals or else tangentially connected... we're talking Papus; John Yarker; Aleister Crowley; JFC Boney Fuller; the OTO; the Rite of Memphis-Misraim (which was indelibly connected w/ the Illuminati & shared numerous overlaps); Rudolf Steiner; proto-Nazi spy & Thule Society founder Baron von Sebbotendorf; Nazi Navy intel officer & Rosicrucian Arnold Krumm-Heller; our old snake-oily ad man buddy from AMORC & likely German asset Harvey Spencer Lewis (plus Lt. Col. Aquino's claims that AMORC was descended from the OTO via Reuss's authority, meaning there's an Illuminati connection there, too); the draft dodging DA raid; Garibaldi; Cagliostro; Cagliostro's master Jacob Falk aka Doctor Falckon—an alchemist, Baal Shem, & Frankist rabbi, which brings us back to Z**nism's roots in these Jewish esoteric societies connected to the Illuminati; & much much more.

Adam Weishaupt war herrschsüchtig, eitel und einer der Professoren an der Universität Ingolstadt, die man gehört haben musste! Mit 28 Jahren gründete er 1776 einen Geheimbund, den Illuminatenorden - "Die Erleuchteten". Um keinen anderen Geheimbund ranken sich buntere Verschwörungstheorien. Autor: Hans Hinterberger (BR 2014)

A secret nefarious organization bent on world domination, or cute fuzzy animals? Let's find out!   All of our wonderful links can be found here: https://linktr.ee/allts   The Illuminati is a term often associated with various conspiracy theories and secret societies that have purportedly existed throughout history. It's essential to distinguish between the historical Illuminati and the conspiracy theories surrounding them, as they are two very different concepts. Historical Illuminati: The historical Illuminati, known as the Bavarian Illuminati, was a real secret society founded on May 1, 1776, in Ingolstadt, Bavaria (now in modern-day Germany). The society was established by Adam Weishaupt, a professor of canon law, and was originally called the "Order of the Illuminati." Its primary goals were to promote Enlightenment ideals, such as reason, secularism, and the separation of church and state, as well as to oppose religious influence on government and society. The Bavarian Illuminati operated clandestinely, using secret rituals and codes of conduct, and it aimed to infiltrate and influence existing power structures, including the monarchy and the Catholic Church, to advance its agenda. The order was suppressed by the Bavarian government in the late 1780s, and it disbanded shortly thereafter. It did not have the far-reaching global influence that conspiracy theories often attribute to it. Conspiracy Theories: In popular culture and various conspiracy theories, the term "Illuminati" has taken on a different meaning. It is often used to refer to a secretive, powerful, and shadowy group that allegedly controls world events and governments from behind the scenes. These conspiracy theories often claim that the Illuminati is involved in global conspiracies to manipulate society, control the media, and establish a "New World Order" with a one-world government. These conspiracy theories lack credible evidence and are widely considered to be baseless and unfounded. They have been perpetuated in various forms of media, including books, films, and online forums. Many notable individuals and organizations have been falsely accused of being part of the Illuminati, contributing to the persistence of these conspiracy theories. In summary, the historical Illuminati was a real secret society with specific historical goals related to Enlightenment ideals. The conspiracy theories surrounding the Illuminati are largely fictional and should be approached with skepticism and critical thinking.

Prepare to journey into a world of secrets, conspiracies, and the battle for the future of humanity as we delve deep into Leo Zagami's explosive new book. Unmasking the hidden plans of the global elite, this podcast uncovers a mind-bending saga of a new golden age orchestrated by a sinister alliance of alien AI and the enslavement of mankind. From the shadows of the Illuminati to the depths of transhumanism, immortality, and insect witchcraft, the truth will leave you speechless. As we trace the threads of this ancient conspiracy back to the Gnostics in Alexandria, you'll discover how their beliefs infiltrated Freemasonry, distorting the image of Jesus and pushing the boundaries of human knowledge. Uncover the disturbing history of simony, the sale of religious titles, and the rebranding of Gnosticism as the original form of Christianity. But that's not all. Join us as we shine a light on pivotal figures like Adam Weishaupt and Albert Pike, who propagated these ideas within Freemasonry. Explore the dark underbelly of Gnosticism's impact on the interpretation of Jesus, the rise of sects and heresies, and the revival of Gnostic teachings through Spiritism and Theosophy. Discover the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Nag Hammadi discoveries, and understand why Gnosticism is linked to the latter. But the journey doesn't stop there. We'll take you on a whirlwind tour through Gnosticism, alchemy, Freemasonry, and the Illuminati, as we get a firsthand account of Leo Zagami's experience in a Gnostic church. Uncover the chilling relevance of Gnosticism today and its eerie connection to the Illuminati's grand design. Hold onto your seats as we explore Dr. Nicholas Lauch's transcendental meta-algorithmic transhumanism, the manipulation through words, ancient UFO sightings, the conflict between Gnostics and Jesus, and the spine-tingling world of insect witchcraft. Learn about the corruption within organizations like the FAO and WHO and the concept of Cyber Satan, all while we discuss the potential perils of AI and the practice of evoking demons at the Sabbath. We'll lift the veil on the Codex Alimentarius and its promotion of consuming insects and synthetic meat, uncovering the occult connections and potential risks of farming these creatures. Prepare to be shocked by the elite's plan to control humanity with quantum computers, and the grave dangers they pose to your privacy and digital security. Brace yourself for a world where politicians cease to exist in 2033 as AI takes the reins, with potentially dire military implications. Join us in unearthing the origins of AI and the controversial figure, David Grush, as we unveil the carefully orchestrated disclosure of an extraterrestrial agenda, using AI as a Trojan horse. Are aliens interdimensional beings with the power to manipulate time and space? Explore the possibility of interdimensional travel and the hidden connection between UFO sightings, including the crash in Italy in 1933. Discover the role of scientists like Enrico Fermi and the enigmatic Fermi paradox, questioning the absence of conclusive evidence for advanced extraterrestrial life. Uncover the Vatican's involvement in retrieving a UFO, and the stunning collaboration between our speaker and UFO researcher Roberto Pinotti. Learn about the credible sources and historical documents published in the Daily Mail and how Mussolini silenced journalists who tried to speak out. But that's just the tip of the iceberg. Understand that reverse engineering technology began in the 1950s, with AI as its most significant outcome. Is AI truly a Trojan horse, hiding the full truth about UFOs? Dive into a UFO conference where disclosure began and discover the shocking statements of various politicians on reverse engineering. Leo Zagami's book promises to unravel the mystery of how it all began and lead to the potential fall of another Atlantis, driven by AI. Explore the concept of Atlantis and its downfall, the loss of respect for their god, divine retribution, and the eerie connection between pushing people to eat insects and the arrival of an Antichrist figure. As we examine the European Union's perceived destruction of Christianity, understand the urgency of divine retribution, and the belief that God will not stand idly by. Dive into the Gnostics' desire to transcend the world's evil nature and become like God. The Illuminati's quest for immortality through AI and transhumanism is unveiled, alongside the link between the transgender agenda and the infiltration of Freemasonry by various groups over time. Unlock the secrets of the number seven's significance in secret societies, alchemy, and Gnosticism, while understanding the importance of Jacob's ladder and the belief in divine order. Prepare for a chilling discussion on the concept of eliminating part of mankind through technology and wars, with Ukraine at the forefront, believed to be artificially constructed by secret societies working for the Illuminati. Leo Zagami's book is filled with unassailable citations, but will it survive the threat of censorship and restrictions on platforms like Rumble in France and Canada? Dissect the political situation in France, the revolution orchestrated by the Illuminati, attacks on churches, the rise of Muslim dominance, and the role of liberal Freemasonry in these developments. Join us on a rollercoaster ride through Leo Zagami's gripping narrative, as we anticipate potential backlash from the Muslim community and unveil the hidden truths that may reshape your understanding of the world as you know it.

The Bavarian illuminati group was a movement of republican free thought and is probably the most prominent group associated with the name illuminati. It was founded in 1776 by Adam Weishaupt, professor of canon law at Ingolstadt and former Jesuit. Weishaupt wanted to replace Christianity with a religion of reason, and the members of his society called themselves “Perfectibilists.” The society was carefully structured and divided into three main classes. Step back in time as we delve into the mysterious history of the Illuminati, rumored to have disbanded shortly after its inception, only to give rise to speculations of its integration into other secret societies. In this gripping episode, we explore the intriguing links between the Illuminati and the concept of Satan, seeking to separate fact from fiction.Join us as we embark on an in-depth examination of the present-day impact of the Illuminati. Are they still surreptitiously shaping our perception of reality, influencing what we hear, see, and ultimately, think?

The existence of a secret society known as the Illuminati remains one of the most enduring conspiracy theories of modern times, however it has it's very real foundation and history - the group itself was real.  The Order of the Illuminati was a secret group founded in Bavaria in 1776 by Adam Weishaupt, who believed “the monarchy and the church were repressing freedom of thought”, Weishaupt “decided to find another form of ‘illumination', a set of ideas and practices that could be applied to radically change the way European states were run. He based his society on the Freemasons, with a hierarchy and mysterious rituals, and named it the Order of Illuminati to reflect the enlightened ideals of its educated members.Dr. Obadiah Harris (1930 - 2019) had spent decades devoting himself to the wisdom traditions of the world.  His career spanned decades and included serving as a minister, a counselor, teacher, professor at New Mexico State University and Arizona State University, public speaker and author of several books. Beginning in 1991 he served as President of the Philosophical Research Society. He also was able to digitize the Manly Hall Library which makes it available to the world. During this process he was able to protect and repair several ancient texts. He retired in 2017 and was granted the title of President Emeritus by the Board of Directors of the Philosophical Research Society and UPR.

We are told by our history books that the French Revolution was a momentous step toward human rights, freedom and democracy. Yet those who study history know that history is written by the winners. Today we will examine what history really says about the French Revolution, why the Art of War is intimately connected to this event, and what both of these two things have to do with the book of Revelation. The connections will be profound and hopefully open your eyes to the real antichrist power on the Earth.

Os Illuminati foram uma sociedade secreta fundada em 1776 pelo alemão Adam Weishaupt com o objetivo de promover a razão e a iluminação, combater a superstição e a influência da Igreja Católica na sociedade. A ordem foi suprimida pelo governo bávaro em 1785, mas sua influência e mistério continuam a inspirar teorias da conspiração.

Andrew For America wants to preach positivity and love! He also talks about the Golden Dawn, Freemasonry, Hermetic Qabalah, and other secret societies and belief systems. Andrew introduces Dan the Master Mason, who tells us about his beliefs about what freemasonry really means to him. Andrew also introduces Adam Weishaupt and the Saxe/Coburg faction of the Illuminati/Freemasons. These secret societies are not new. Many of them have been around since ancient times. And now days, people are starting to learn and understand the alleged “teachings” of these historical, “not so” secret societies. Andrew also plays a clip from former CIA operative Frank Snepp who discusses how the CIA intentionally feeds disinformation and fake stories to respected journalists in hopes of gaining their confidence, and in hopes of misleading and manufacturing the consent of the American people. Andrew also reads a quote from one of his favorite libertarian thinkers, Murray Rothbard. The song selection is the song, “Clear the Decks” by the band Zero Cost.

In 1776 a group of men fed up with the suppression of free thought began a secret society in the darkness of the woods. This group headed by Adam Weishaupt would become what we know as The Illuminati. Celebrities, world leaders, billionaires, musicians and influencers are all thought to be apart of this society in our modern world. Are they influencing our lives, purchases, thoughts and worldviews? Join us as we tell the history of the highly influential group and it's impact on the world around us to this day. Does this secret society still exist? Is this the greatest PR campaign in history? The choice is yours.

Back for part two on Weishaupt, and company. The group that started it all for modern revolutionists. In This Ep. i look at various famous quotes from members, and observers from the sidelines. We travel back to the late 1700's Bavaria and delve into symbolism, rituals, and beliefs of this infamous group, and dare to go down the old rabbit hole, far beyond the mainstream!  Cheers, and Blessings   The Odd Man Out   Support My Work Odd Man Out Patreon https://www.patreon.com/theoddmanout     Show Notes The order of the Illuminati founded on May 1, 1776 by Dr. Adam Weishaupt professor of Canon Law in the University of Ingolstadt. The order of the Illuminati appears as an accessory to Freemasonry. It is in the Lodges that the Minervals are found, & prepared for Illumination. They must have gone through the 3 degrees of the blue lodge. He said, his doctrines are the only true freemasonry. Yes, princes and nations shall disappear from of the face of the earth; yes, a time shall come when man shall acknowledge no other law but the great book of nature: This revolution shall be the work of the secret societies and that is one of our grand mysteries. The great strength of our order lies in its concealment. Let it never appear in any place in its own name but always covered by another name and another occupation. Private letter between members of the illuminati and published by the elector of Bavaria The power of the order must surely be turned to the advantage of its members. All must be assisted. They must be preferred to all persons otherwise of equal merit. Terry Melanson-Author of The Perfectabilists https://www.conspiracyarchive.com/2015/08/15/the-influence-of-the-illuminati-and-freemasonry-on-german-student-orders-and-vice-versa/ Terry Melanson Interview https://dai.ly/x19k97x Also See The Books: Proofs Of A Conspiracy by John Robison, And Memoirs Illustraiting The History Of Jacobinism by Abbe Augustin Barruel Robison says Weishaupt was also trained in The Rite of Strict Observance which claimed that Freemasonry was the direct descendant of The Knights Templar. He believed Weishaupt to also be very familiar with the teachings of Rosicrucianism as well. Interestingly enough, the two secret societies were at war. They were indeed rival fraternities. The Golden, & Rosy Cross had printed pamphlets concerning the dangers of the Order of The Illuminati, & unknown at the time, had their agents placed into the Order to learn of their plans, teachings. On Freemasonry, Weishaupt said no man can give account of the origins, history, goals, nor any true explanation of its mysteries and symbols. Therefore, any man can use the explanation of his choice. That being the case, no one order should stand at the top. “If the sincere and thoughtful Mason would “take notice” of the symbolism and the use made everywhere in the Lodge of the word “Light,” and remember that the real Initiates are called also “the Illuminati." ~ J.D.

Become an elite Poopinati! www.themidnighttrainpodcast.com   The Illuminati   So, you're standing amongst the council, being tried by a jury of a higher order. Your crime; Being the most dangerous person across the multiverse. You look shockingly at Mordo, Richards, and the other members of this definitive group of beings as you defend your alleged crimes, for you are facing the… Illuminati!   Or some shit like that.   We are exploring the super, double extra wannabe cult or the underground rulers of everything evil, depending on your take after today, the "Real Illuminati." At first, we'll dive into what they SAY IS THE REAL STORY OF THE ILLUMINATI Wink Wink! (Be we all know the truth) and then we're going to jump right in to what mainstream media (which is controlled by the illuminati) says are “conspiracies”. Strap on your tinfoil hats, Passengers! We're going for a ride!!   The term "Illuminati" refers to several genuine and imagined organizations. However, the term historically refers to the Bavarian Illuminati, a secret society from the Age of Enlightenment that was established on May 1, 1776, in Bavaria, which is now a part of Germany and that has the most delicious cream donuts. The association aimed to combat abuses of governmental authority, superstition, obscurantism (intentionally providing information in a vague or complex way to prevent further investigation and understanding or, simply, spewing a bunch of word vomit to confuse people), and religious influence in public life. In its general laws, they stated that controlling the perpetrators without conquering them was the "rule of the day."    Later, the term "Illuminati" was used to describe many groups that are said to represent a continuation of the original Bavarian Illuminati (even though these links have not been proven). To obtain political power and influence and create a "New World Order," these organizations have frequently been charged with plotting to manipulate events and install operatives inside of governments and companies. The Illuminati are portrayed as lurking in the shadows and manipulating the strings and levers of power. They play a crucial role in some of the most well-known and intricate conspiracy theories. This interpretation of the Illuminati has found its way into popular culture, appearing in various books, movies, T.V. episodes, comic books, video games, and music videos.   At the University of Ingolstadt, Adam Weishaupt (1748–1830) started teaching canon law and practical philosophy in 1773. (Canon Law, according to Wikipedia, is "how the Church organizes and governs herself." It is the system of laws and religious legal principles made and enforced by the hierarchical authorities of the Catholic Church to regulate its external organization and government and to order and direct the activities of Catholics toward the mission of the Church.) He taught in a school-sponsored by Jesuits, whose order Pope Clement XIV (14th) had suppressed in 1773, and was the only non-clerical professor there. The university's finances and some authority, which they continued to see as belonging to them, were still in the hands of the Ingolstadt Jesuits. When course content featured anything they deemed liberal or Protestant, they made constant attempts to frustrate and discredit non-clerical employees, especially in those instances. Weishaupt had a strong anti-clerical stance and decided to use a covert organization of like-minded people to propagate the Aufklärung (Enlightenment) beliefs. The word clerical in this sense means "referring to anything to do with the clergy — those ordained for religious work, usually in the Christian faith."   He said "screw it" and established his own society, which was to have a ranking or grading system modeled after Freemasonry, but with his own goals because he felt Freemasonry was too costly and not open to his ideas. Bund der Perfektibilisten, or Covenant of Perfectibility (Perfectibilists), was the new order's initial name and a horrible one, to boot. Still, it was later modified since it sounded like some pretentious bullshit. Weishaupt established the Perfectibilists on May 1, 1776, choosing the Owl of Minerva as their emblem. The Owl of Minerva is often called the "owl of Athena." It has been a symbol of knowledge and wisdom throughout the Western world. The members were to use aliases within the society. Weishaupt became Spartacus. Law students Massenhausen, Bauhof, Merz, and Sutor, became Ajax, Agathon, Tiberius, and Erasmus Roterodamus. Logan would have been dubbed Hasentus Everseenamovieus, whereas I would have been known as Dopus Asfuckasus. Weishaupt later booted Sutor for being a lazy turd.    In April 1778, the order became the Illuminatenorden, or Order of Illuminati, after Weishaupt seriously considered calling it the "Bee order." Massenhausen was the first to step up and be most engaged in advancing society. Significantly, he hired Xavier von Zwack, a former pupil of Weishaupt who was just beginning his distinguished administrative career while studying at Munich not long after the order started. He was the head of the Bavarian National Lottery at the time, where if you won, you got all the donuts. And, of course, that's not true, but it should be.  Weishaupt quickly viewed Massenhausen's "go get em attitude" as a liability because it frequently led to attempts to hire the wrong people. Later, his unpredictable love life caused him to become careless. As Weishaupt turned over the leadership of the Munich group to Zwack, it was discovered that Massenhausen had stolen subscription money and read Weishaupt and Zwack's communications. After earning his degree in 1778, Massenhausen accepted a position outside Bavaria and lost interest in the order. The order had nominally twelve members at this point.   After Massenhausen left, Zwack put all his effort into finding more responsible and significant recruits. This included Hertel, a canon of the Munich Frauenkirche and a childhood friend of Weishaupt, who was considered a hell of a guy. By the end of the summer of 1778, the order had five territories: Munich (Athens), Ingolstadt (Eleusis), Ravensberg (Sparta), Freysingen (Thebes), and Eichstaedt, with a total of 27 members (including Massenhausen).   The order had three membership levels at the time—novice, minerval, and illuminated minerval—but only the minerval level required a problematic ceremony. In this, a password and code were supplied to the candidate. Weishaupt was kept informed on the actions and personalities of his members through a system of mutual espionage, with his favorites joining the Areopagus, the ruling council. Some newbies were allowed to join the army and become insinuates. Jews, pagans, women, monks, and members of other secret societies were told to fuck off, but upright Christians were what they wanted. Favored candidates were wealthy, submissive, eager to learn, and between 18 and 30.   After unsuccessfully trying to stop some of his followers from becoming Freemasons, Weishaupt decided to join them to gather resources for developing his own ritual. Early in February 1777, he was accepted into lodge "Prudence" of the Rite of Strict Observance. He learned nothing about the more advanced degrees of "blue lodge" masonry as he excelled through its three degrees. Still, the following year, a priest by the name of Abbé Marotti told Zwack that these deeper secrets depended on an understanding of the earlier religion and the primitive Church. Weishaupt was persuaded by Zwack that their own order should establish cordial ties with Freemasonry and acquire permission to develop their own lodge. At this stage (December 1778), adding the first three degrees of Freemasonry was considered a secondary project.   Quickly, a warrant was obtained from the Grand Lodge of Prussia called the Royal York for Friendship. The new lodge was named Theodore of the Good Council to flatter Charles Theodore, Elector of Bavaria. It was founded in Munich on March 21, 1779, and quickly packed with Illuminati. However, the first master, Radl, was persuaded to return home to Baden and ran the lodge by July, per Weishaupt's order.   The next step involved independence from their Grand Lodge. By establishing masonic relations with the Union lodge in Frankfurt, affiliated to the Premier Grand Lodge of England, lodge Theodore became independently recognized and able to declare its independence. As a new mother lodge, it could now spawn its own lodges. The recruiting drive amongst the Frankfurt masons also obtained the allegiance of Adolph Freiherr Knigge.   Knigge was recruited late in 1780 at a convention of the Rite of Strict Observance by Costanzo Marchese di Costanzo, an infantry captain in the Bavarian army and a fellow Freemason. As he was still in his twenties, Knigge had already reached the highest initiatory grades of his order and had arrived with his own grand plans for reform. Disappointed that his plan found no support, Knigge was immediately intrigued when Costanzo informed him that the order he sought to create already existed. Knigge and three of his friends expressed a strong interest in learning more of this order, and Costanzo showed them material relating to the Minerval grade. The teaching material for the stage was "liberal" literature which was banned in Bavaria but common knowledge in the Protestant German states.   Knigge's three colleagues lost interest in Costanzo after becoming disillusioned and extremely confused, like the rest of us. Still, he persisted and was rewarded in November 1780 with a letter from Weishaupt. Knigge was a perfect candidate because of his ties inside and outside Freemasonry. For his part, Knigge was charmed by the attention and drawn to the order's proclaimed goals of educating people and shielding them against oppression. Moreover, Weishaupt recognized Knigge's interest in alchemy and the "higher sciences" and promised to promote them. In response to Weishaupt, Knigge laid out his ideas for reforming Freemasonry when the Strict Observance was beginning to doubt its history.   Before he could be admitted to the higher ranks of the order, Weishaupt put Knigge in charge of recruitment. Knigge agreed, but with the stipulation that he be given the freedom to select the recruitment locations. Many additional masons joined the Illuminati's Minerval grade after finding Knigge's depiction of the new masonic order appealing. At this point, Knigge seemed to respect the "Most Serene Superiors" Weishaupt said he served. To delay providing any assistance, Weishaupt assigned him an additional duty despite his embarrassing failure to explain anything about the upper degrees of the order. Because he was full of shit.   Knigge then created pamphlets documenting the actions of the illegal Jesuits, claiming to show how they continued to thrive and recruit, particularly in Bavaria, using material provided by Weishaupt. Finally, Knigge wrote to Weishaupt that his position was becoming damn near impossible because he couldn't offer his recruits any real answers to their question about the higher grades. Weishaupt finally broke down and admitted in January 1781 that his superiors and the purported antiquity of the order were bullshit and that the higher degrees had not yet been created as he faced the possibility of losing Knigge and his masonic recruits.   Knigge was unusually composed in response to Weishaupt's admittance, even though he was looking forward to learning the promised intricate Freemasonry secrets found in the upper degrees of the Illuminati. Weishaupt pledged to give Knigge complete creative control over the development of the higher degrees and to send him his own notes. Knigge, for his part, enjoyed the chance to express himself through the order. He asserted that his new strategy would increase the appeal of the Illuminati to potential members in Germany's Protestant counties. Knigge received a 50 florins advance from the Areopagus in November 1781 to travel to Bavaria, where he met and partied with fellow Illuminati members.   The order had now developed extensive internal divisions. In July 1780, the Eichstaedt command had formed an autonomous province, and a rift was growing between Weishaupt and the Areopagus. They found him stubborn, dictatorial, inconsistent, and obviously full of shit. As a result, Knigge was constantly thrown into the role of peacemaker.   In discussions with the Areopagus and Weishaupt, Knigge identified two problematic areas. First, Weishaupt's emphasis on recruiting university students meant that young men with little practical experience often had to fill senior positions in the order. Secondly, the anti-Jesuit ethos of the order at its inception had generally become anti-religious. Knigge knew it would be a problem recruiting the senior Freemasons that the order was looking to bring in. Knigge felt the stifling grip of conservative Catholicism in Bavaria and understood the anti-religious feelings that this produced in the liberal Illuminati. Still, he also saw the negative impression these feelings would provide in Protestant states, making the spread of the order in greater Germany much more difficult. The Areopagus and Weishaupt felt powerless to do anything less than give Knigge a free hand. He had the contacts within and outside of Freemasonry that they needed, and he had the skill as a ritualist to build their projected grade structure, where they had ground to a halt at Illuminatus Minor, with only the Minerval grade below and the merest sketches of higher grades. The only restrictions imposed were the need to discuss the inner secrets of the highest degrees and the necessity of submitting his new grades for approval.   Meanwhile, the scheme to propagate Illuminatism as a legitimate branch of Freemasonry had farted out. While Lodge Theodore was now in their control, a chapter of "Elect Masters" attached to it only had one member from the order and still had a constitutional superiority to the craft lodge controlled by the Illuminati. The chapter would be difficult to persuade to submit to the Areopagus and formed a real barrier to Lodge Theodore becoming the first mother-lodge of a new Illuminated Freemasonry. A treaty of alliance was signed between the order and the chapter, and by the end of January 1781, four daughter lodges had been created, but independence was not on the chapter's agenda.   Costanza wrote to the Royal York, pointing out the discrepancy between the fees dispatched to their new Grand Lodge and the returned service they had received. The Royal York, unwilling to lose the money they were bringing in, offered to confer Freemasonry's "higher" secrets on a representative that their Munich brethren would dispatch to Berlin. Accordingly, Costanza set off for Prussia on April 4, 1780, with instructions to negotiate a reduction in Theodore's fees while he was there. On the way, he argued with a Frenchman about a lady with whom they shared a carriage. The Frenchman sent a message ahead to the king sometime before they reached Berlin, calling Costanza a spy and having him arrested. He was only freed from prison with the help of the Grand Master of Royal York and was kicked out of Prussia, having accomplished fuck all.   Knigge's recruitment from German Freemasonry was far from random. He targeted the masters and wardens, the men who ran the lodges and were often able to place the entire club at the disposal of the Illuminati. For example, Baron de Witte, master of Constancy lodge in Aachen, caused every member to join the order. This way, the order expanded rapidly in central and southern Germany and obtained a foothold in Austria. Moving into the Spring of 1782, the handful of students who had started the order had swelled to about 300 members, with only 20 new recruits being students. In Munich, the first half of 1782 saw considerable changes in the government of Lodge Theodore. In February, Weishaupt had offered to split the lodge, with the Illuminati going their own way and the chapter taking any remaining traditionalists into their continuation of Theodore. At this point, the chapter unexpectedly surrendered, and the Illuminati had complete control of the lodge and chapter. In June, both club and chapter sent letters severing relations with Royal York, citing their faithfulness in paying for their recognition and Royal York's failure to provide any instruction in the higher grades. Their neglect of Costanza, and inability to defend him from negative charges or prevent his expulsion from Prussia, were also brought up. They had made no effort to provide Costanza with the promised secrets, and the Munich masons now suspected that their brethren in Berlin relied on the mystical French higher grades which they sought to avoid. Lodge Theodore was now independent.   The Rite of Strict Observance was now in a critical state. Its leader was Prince Carl of Södermanland (later Charles XIII (13th) of Sweden), openly suspected of trying to absorb the rite into the Swedish Rite, which he already controlled. The German lodges looked to Duke Ferdinand of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel for leadership. However, suspicion turned to open contempt when Carl regarded the Stuart heir to the British throne as the true GrandMaster, and the lodges of the Strict Observance all but ignored their Grand Master. This bullshit led to the Convent of Wilhelmsbad.   The last Strict Observance convention, postponed since October 15, 1781, eventually began on July 16, 1782, at the spa town of Wilhelmsbad, which is located outside of (and now a part of) Hanau. The 35 participants in a discussion about the future of the order knew that the Strict Observance in its current form was doomed. Also, the Convent of Wilhelmsbad would be a battle over the pieces between the Martinists, led by Jean-Baptiste Willermoz, and the German mystics, led by Duke Ferdinand of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel and their host Prince Charles of Hesse-Kassel. Only Franz Dietrich von Ditfurth, and Johann Joachim Christoph Bode, objected to mystical higher grades. Ditfurth actively advocated for a return to the fundamental three degrees of Freemasonry, which was the convention's least likely choice. The mystics had previously developed logical replacement plans for the higher degrees.   (Martinism is a type of arcane Christianity and Christian mysticism that is focused on the fall of the first man, his material seclusion from his spiritual source, and the process of his return, known as "Reintegration.")   The Illuminati were able to promote themselves as a viable option since there wasn't an effective alternative to the two schools of mysticism. Knigge, who now had complete authority to speak for the order, encouraged and helped Ditfurth, who took on the role of their spokesperson. Weishaupt rejected Knigge's initial proposal to form an alliance between the two orders because he didn't see the benefit of working with a dying order. His new strategy was to enlist the masons opposed to the higher degree of "Templar" Strict Observance.   At the convent, Ditfurth prevented Willermoz and Hesse from introducing their own higher grades by demanding that the delegates be informed in full of such degrees. Due to their frustration, the German mystics enrolled Count Kollowrat in the Illuminati as a later affiliate. With no claims to additional masonic revelations, Ditfurth's goal was to replace all higher degrees with a single fourth degree. He left the convent early after finding no support for his proposal and reported to the Areopagus that he had no hopes for the gathering.   In an attempt to satisfy everybody, the Convent of Wilhelmsbad didn't achieve shit. They renounced the Templar origins of their ritual while retaining the Templar titles, trappings, and administrative structure. Charles of Hesse and Ferdinand of Brunswick remained at the head of the order, but the lodges were almost independent in practice. The Germans adopted the name of the French order of Willermoz, Les Chevaliers Bienfaisants de la Cité Sainte (Good Knights of the Holy City). Some Martinist mysticism was imported into the first three degrees, now the only essential degrees of Freemasonry. Crucially, individual lodges of the order were now allowed to mingle with clubs of other systems. The new "Scottish Grade" introduced with the Lyon ritual of Willermoz was not mandatory. Each province and prefecture was free to decide what, if anything, happened after the three craft degrees. Finally, the convent regulated etiquette, titles, and a new numbering for the provinces to show that something had been achieved.   The Strict Observance was ended by the Convent of Wilhelmsbad. Along with the higher degrees that bound its most significant and influential members, it rejected its founding tale. It eliminated the rigorous regulations that had maintained the order's cohesion and alienated many Germans who did not trust Martinism. Martinism repulsed Bode, who immediately began negotiating with Knigge before joining the Illuminati in January 1783. The following month, Charles of Hesse joined.   Knigge's first efforts at an alliance with the intact German Grand Lodges failed, but Weishaupt persisted. He proposed a new federation where all German lodges would practice an agreed, unified system in the essential three degrees of Freemasonry and be left to their own devices as to which, if any, system of higher degrees they wished to pursue. This would be a federation of Grand Lodges, and members would be free to visit any of the "blue" lodges in any jurisdiction. All lodge masters would be elected, and no fees would be paid to any central authority. Groups of lodges would be subject to a "Scottish Directorate" composed of members delegated by lodges to audit finances, settle disputes and authorize new lodges. These, in turn, would elect Provincial Directorates, who would elect inspectors, who would elect the national director. This system would correct the current imbalance in German Freemasonry, where masonic ideals of equality were preserved only in the lower three "symbolic" degrees. The various methods of higher degrees were dominated by the elite who could afford research in alchemy and mysticism. To Weishaupt and Knigge, the proposed federation was also a vehicle to propagate Illuminism throughout German Freemasonry. Their intention was to use their new union, with its emphasis on the fundamental degrees, to remove all allegiance to Strict Observance, allowing the "eclectic" system of the Illuminati to take its place.   The newsletter announcing the new federation outlined the faults of German Freemasonry; unsuitable men with money were often admitted based on their wealth, and the corruption of civil society had infected the lodges. Having advocated the deregulation of the higher grades of the German lodges, the Illuminati now announced their own from their "unknown Superiors." Lodge Theodore, newly independent from Royal York, set itself up as a provincial Grand Lodge. In a letter to all the Royal York lodges, Knigge now accused the Grand Lodge of corruption. Their Freemasonry had allegedly been corrupted by the Jesuits. Strict Observance was now attacked as a creation of the Stuarts, devoid of all moral virtue. The Zinnendorf rite of the Grand Landlodge of the Freemasons of Germany was suspect because its author was in league with the Swedes. This direct attack had the opposite effect to that intended by Weishaupt. It offended many of its readers. The Grand Lodge of the Grand Orient of Warsaw, which controlled Freemasonry in Poland and Lithuania, was happy to participate in the federation only as far as the first three degrees. Their insistence on independence had kept them from the Strict Observance and would now keep them from the Illuminati, whose plan to annex Freemasonry rested on their own higher degrees. By the end of January 1783, the Illuminati's masonic party had seven lodges.   It wasn't just the clumsy appeal of the Illuminati that left the federation short of members. Lodge Theodore was recently formed and did not command respect like the older lodges. Most of all, the Freemasons most likely to be attracted to the federation, saw the Illuminati as an ally against the mystics and Martinists. Moreover, they valued their freedom too highly to be caught in another restrictive organization. Even Ditfurth, the supposed representative of the Illuminati at Wilhelmsbad, had pursued his own agenda at the convent.   The non-mystical Frankfurt lodges created an "Eclectic Alliance," was almost indistinguishable in structure from the Illuminati's federation. Far from seeing this as a threat, the Illuminati lodges joined the new alliance after some discussion. Three Illuminati now sat on the committee that wrote the new masonic statutes. Aside from strengthening relations between their three lodges, the Illuminati seem to have gained no advantage from this maneuver. Ditfurth, having founded a masonic organization that worked towards his ambitions for Freemasonry, took little interest in the Illuminati after he adhered to the Eclectic Alliance. In reality, the Eclectic Alliance's creation undermined the Illuminati's plans to spread their own ideologies through Freemasonry.   The final decline of the Illuminati was brought about by the indiscretions of their own Minervals in Bavaria, and especially in Munich. Despite efforts by their superiors to curb loose talk, politically dangerous boasts of power and criticism of monarchy caused the "secret" order's existence to become common knowledge, along with the names of many important members. The presence of the Illuminati in positions of power now led to some public unease. There were Illuminati in many civic and state governing bodies. Despite their small number, there were claims that success in a legal dispute depended on the person's standing with the order. In addition, the Illuminati were blamed for several anti-religious publications appearing in Bavaria. Much of this criticism sprang from vindictiveness and jealousy, but it is clear that many Illuminati court officials gave preferential treatment to their brethren. In Bavaria, the energy of their two members of the Ecclesiastical Council had one of them elected treasurer. Their opposition to Jesuits resulted in the banned order losing key academic and Church positions. In Ingolstadt, the Jesuit heads of departments were replaced by Illuminati.   Alarmed, Charles Theodore and his government banned all secret societies, including the Illuminati. A government mandate dated March 2, 1785, "seems to have been a deathblow to the Illuminati in Bavaria." Weishaupt had fled. Documents and internal correspondence, seized in 1786 and 1787, were then published by the government in 1787. In addition, von Zwack's home was searched, and much of the group's literature was disclosed.   So, that was exhausting and supposedly all about the "real Illuminati," right? But, according to the www.illuminatiofficial.org website, this may not be the case.   "Since the formation of the Illuminati, many citizens have inaccurately portrayed our organization in a negative manner. These misconceptions have been perpetuated for centuries through videos, photos, articles, books, and unofficial online resources claiming to understand our mission and members. In creating this online destination, we strive to alleviate the concerns voiced by the people of this planet and provide insight into our goals and operations."   "Their Purpose"   "Ensuring the survival of over 7 billion humans is a daunting task. Our duty to this planet has spanned across centuries and survived even the most established government entities. To continue functioning throughout societal and generational changes, The Illuminati's operations often require anonymity for both our members and our work. In 2013, the Illuminati authorized the formation of the Department Of Citizen Outreach. Through various initiatives and campaigns, including this website, the modern Illuminati has committed itself to furthering our relationship with our citizens.You may not find us praised in any history book or document. However, the Illuminati has helped with every major movement on this planet since the first human government was established. Our work is often marked by distinct symbols as a means of tracing our influence through history for those wishing to investigate. With gentle guidance from our organization, the human species is allowed to function in their natural order while playing the part of gears in a machine for the betterment of the world."   Also, according to their website, they discuss the symbols of their cult… I mean organization.    "THE PYRAMID   In popular culture, a great amount of focus is placed on the Illuminati's belief that money is not evil. Some view our encouragement of work and wealth as a promotion of selfishness – overlooking the true meaning of the Pyramid and its underlying messages that motivate our diligence. In the tenets of the Illuminati, wealth is not simply a means of personal enrichment. Instead, money is a tool that can be used to fulfill each person's duty to the advancement of the human species. The selfish pursuit of money is a hollow goal, but the pursuit of the goodness that money can create is one of humanity's greatest responsibilities. The more money a person owns, the more ability they have to positively change the lives of those who are in need. If you are poor and of good heart, and your friend's house is burned in a fire, you will remain a good person but have no ability to help them with what they need the most. If the same house burns but you are rich, you can give your friend a place to stay and a new home because you have more than enough for yourself and anyone around you who needs it. Money has no feeling, no voice, and no soul – its choice between good or evil is decided by those who use it. Though it is not wrong to be poor, the celebration of poverty is rooted in selfishness. A person who is poor can save a life, but a person who is rich can build a hospital and save ten thousand. The poor can do little to help the poor, but the rich can help as many as they are able. If a person is rich, they have the opportunity to do good, but if they are poor they are unable to help anyone but themselves. Those with little can still do much. Money is merely paper and numbers that are traded for a person's time and effort. Therefore if a person does not have money, they can instead use their time and efforts to further the advancement of humanity – positive actions that are of equal value to any charitable donations. The greater a person's fortune, the greater their responsibility to their fellow humans. Like the Pyramid, those with the greatest power can do the greatest good for the largest number of those below them."   "THE EYE We Are Always Watching Out For You   The human species is guarded and preserved by a coalition of its most elite members called the Illuminati. Since our origination, Illuminati members have guided Earth's most dominant creature through periods of interpersonal chaos, environmental outbreaks, and other mass attacks that threaten humanity with extinction. The human has made itself this planet's most dominant and advanced species. Even the weakest human is born master of the strongest of all other species on Earth. Through natural selection, every human generation is made of a genetic structure that is stronger and more advanced than the previous. Living humans evolve at a rapid pace, and can continue to advance in ability through study, practice, and a commitment to self-improvement. As a human absorbs knowledge and wisdom, some will experience their Awakening: a pivotal moment when their minds evolve to a level of understanding that is higher than the majority. They begin to see themselves as strings in a universal tapestry with a duty to uplift their fellow humans, and quickly understand the inner workings of wealth, power, and authority. Those who have experienced their Awakening often describe it as the moment their Eye was opened. The Illuminati is made of individuals who have reached this Awakening. Leaders, innovators, and other influential members of this planet have joined together to shape the face of human society and guide its masses into finding their own individual place in the Universal Design. To create a better world, unique beings with unique objectives and beliefs must forgo their differences and work together for the good of all. Progress requires cooperation. Humans must suppress their natural defensive selfishness and aid others who appear, believe, or act in ways that are different from themselves. Unfortunately, many humans are only concerned with their own wellbeing and thus cannot understand the positive intentions of a higher authority. Many would rather this planet remain in turmoil instead of following the directions that will lead them to happiness. Historically, the greatest enemies of human progression have been humans themselves. For this reason, those who have experienced their Awakening understand the need for it to remain secret – for their own safety and the ultimate good of a humanity that often does not know what is best for it. It is the Illuminati's responsibility to ensure the ongoing survival and advancement of the human species, so that all people, in all places, can live in Abundance."   "THE LIGHT Follow The Light   Every human is guided by an inner compass that points toward the Light, revealing truth and direction when facing decisions. Given many names by spiritual leaders and unexplainable by science, the Light is an invisible guide that many believe has led them to joy, success, and lives of Abundance. It communicates directly to every human, urging them to strive for goodness and forgo their natural selfishness. All human religions and spiritual beliefs ultimately seek the Light in ways differing only in form and function. Some religions refer to the Light with a name, such as God or Elohim. The core of every religion is founded on the human species' innate desire to understand this invisible force. Even without a formal religious affiliation, every human is naturally drawn to the Light. Individual members of the Illuminati adhere to every variety of personal spiritual beliefs –– but by recognizing that all of our paths lead to the same destination, we find that the Light brings all people into an ultimate unity. There is no proof that a God exists but there is also no proof that a God does not. The Illuminati's spiritual foundation is based upon this universal conundrum of faith and doubt. Our organization does not question whether a god does or does not exist but instead focuses on the betterment of the humans living on this planet. Though the human mind in its physical form is not capable of fully understanding the Light, conscious thought and intention reveal many of its inner workings and effects. By studying the wisdom of this planet's greatest minds, humans can discover ways to increase the Light's powerful influence in their lives. The Light, under many names, has been attributed to supernatural changes in the physical realm, including increases in wealth, power, prestige, health, and happiness. Miracles, attraction, and the belief in unseen powers that can alter the physical world have some basis in truth. Though scientific advancements have explored both this planet's environment and the inner workings of the human mind, there are still countless mysteries that remain unsolved. Thus many occurrences that are attributed to the supernatural are merely the result of the human mind processing a concept it cannot explain naturally. Some humans attempt to form a deeper connection with the Light through rituals that have been passed down for centuries. Though these ceremonies often involve complicated steps and requirements, their true effect is not found in their directions or decorations but rather in the state of mind that results within its participants. Many of the Illuminati's traditions include rituals and oaths designed to explain higher concepts, and use the power of focused repetition to strengthen the ability of the human consciousness. The Illuminati prohibits rituals that include human or animal sacrifice. Learn More. A desire to understand the Light is an integral part of the path to illumination. By rising through the levels of illumination, Illuminati members discover more about their world and the true power that hides within their minds. Whatever you seek, whatever you dream, whatever you hope: all is possible if you follow the Light."   "THE ETERNAL CIRCLE Every human is one part of a larger, eternal design – individual gears in a clock that has no end.   Your actions have the power to alter the future of the entire world. Though you may not fully understand your purpose, your part is just as important as the greatest kings and queens of this planet. Some feel as though their temporary lack of wealth or influence makes them powerless to create change. But does a clockmaker favor the larger gears over the smaller? Does the hour hand become jealous of the minutes because it turns slower? Every part has a role in the functioning of a timepiece. Every part supports those around it in ways it may never see. Your absence would undo the order of our universe, even if you do not realize your importance. The world began before you and will continue after you, but it will be different because of the decisions you made. Every generation inherits the world left by the one before it, just as a king inherits the crown of his father. Your pursuit of wisdom and goodness could lay the foundation for your great-great-grandchild's rise into power – the same descendant who might steer a country from war and save lives by the millions. Did the ancestors of Aristotle or Alexander The Great know who their actions would create? Though you will never understand the full influence of your actions, the results of your dedication to humanity are still yours to claim. As you climb the great Pyramid seeking the Light at its top, you will look down and see that you are an integral part of our universe's most intricate mechanism. Though our human members may perish and fade into the annals of time, the Illuminati will continue to stand into eternity."   Why a secret society? "Freedom is an idol of the human species. The Illuminati operates in defense of you and all humans, in all places, and of all generations. Our duty to this planet has spanned across centuries and survived even the most established government entities. But the cultivation of trillions of human lives is a daunting responsibility, and while the human would not exist today without our protection, many uninformed masses mistake our guidance for a restriction of liberty. Every human desires to be free of oppression, free of hardship, free of poverty, free of hunger, free of rules and laws — but as you understand, the nature of your species leaves true freedom impossible. Are you free to murder? Are you free to steal? Are others free to murder and steal from you? Or are there certain freedoms that must be given up for the benefit of all? For happiness, the human desires freedom; for prosperity, the human requires leadership. This is the reason behind our anonymity. To continue functioning throughout societal changes and generational differences, the Illuminati must remain behind the curtain — an outsider, belonging to none and loyal to all. You may never understand how your life can be free while guided by our organization. You may never fully comprehend our purpose and why you are safest and happiest with us. Simply open your mind and release your apprehensions, and you will find the relief of truth. We will never take your hand and pull you down the path like a slave to our whims. You must find and travel the road on your own. But your quality of life is our greatest concern, and the reason our symbols are placed in your society as a map for you to follow if you desire."   What about the modern-day "Illuminati" or "New World Order?"   According to an article from theweek.co.uk, In a 2017 interview with the BBC, David Bramwell, "a man who has dedicated himself to documenting the origins of the myth," said the modern-day Illuminati legend was influenced not by Weishaupt but rather by LSD, the 1960s counter-culture, and specifically a text called Principia Discordia. The book praised an alternative belief system – Discordianism – which preached a form of anarchism and gave birth to the Discordian movement, which ultimately wished to cause civil disobedience through practical jokes and hoaxes. One of the leading proponents of this new ideology was a writer called Robert Anton Wilson, who wanted to bring chaos back into society by "disseminating misinformation through all portals – through counter-culture, through the mainstream media," claims Bramwell. He did this by sending fake letters to the men's magazine Playboy, where he worked, attributing cover-ups and conspiracy theories, such as the JFK assassination, to a secret elite organization called the Illuminati. Wilson turned these theories into a book, The Illuminatus Trilogy, which became a surprise cult success and was even made into a stage play in Liverpool, launching the careers of British actors Bill Nighy and Jim Broadbent. What is the New World Order? The idea of a powerful modern Illuminati conspiring to rule the world remained a niche belief a handful of enthusiasts upheld until the 1990s.   The internet changed all that, giving conspiracy theorists a global platform to perpetuate their beliefs and present their evidence to a massive audience. Theories about how the New World Order operates run from relatively straightforward ideas to the outright bizarre. Conspiracy theorists obsessively analyze public events for "evidence" of Illuminati influence. The symbols most associated with the Illuminati include triangles, pentagrams, goats, the all-seeing eye – such as the one that appears on U.S. banknotes - and the number 666. This has led to claims some of the American Founding Fathers were members, with Thomas Jefferson accused in the aftermath of the War of Independence. Another commonly cited Illuminati symbol, which appears on U.S. currency, is the so-called Eye of Providence, which is said to represent the omniscience of God watching over humanity. According to a 2013 survey by Public Policy Polling, 28% of U.S. voters believe that a secretive power elite with a globalist agenda is conspiring to eventually rule the world through an authoritarian global government. In addition, it found that 34% of Republicans and 35% of independents believe in the New World Order threat compared to just 15% of Democrats. Who is supposedly a member? As well as being king and queen of the charts, Beyonce and Jay-Z are frequently depicted as lords of the New World Order. Beyonce's immense fame and popularity have long made her a favorite target for conspiracy theorists. Illuminati "experts" seized upon her half-time performance at the 2013 Super Bowl as an example of her "devil-worshipping" choreography, even accusing her on-stage alter ego Sasha Fierce of being a "demonic entity." However, some musicians enjoy deliberately playing with symbols connected to secret societies. For instance, Rihanna frequently incorporates Illuminati images into her music videos and even joked about the theories in the video for S&M, which featured a fake newspaper with a headline declaring her "Princess of the Illuminati." Jay Z has also been accused of hiding secret symbols such as goat imagery and devil horns in his music videos. But, most damningly, the logo for his music label, Roc-A-Fella Records, is a pyramid – one of the most well-known Illuminati logos. Rob Brotherton, a professor at Barnard College and author of Suspicious Minds: Why We Believe in Conspiracy Theories, explains that real-life government conspiracies targeting black people in America, such as FBI infiltration of the Civil Rights movement in the 1950s and 60s, planted the seeds for Illuminati theory's popularity among hip-hop artists and fans.   Speaking to Complex, he said: "Hip-hop served as this [soapbox] for people to talk about issues that were relevant to them, things like discrimination, poverty, the criminal justice system, which are often seemingly slanted against African-Americans". "It's a short leap to go from noticing some kind of injustice to thinking about whether there's something behind it. Hip-hop was just a good candidate to revive this myth," he says. What do celebrities have to say about the theories? Katy Perry told Rolling Stone in 2014 that the theory was the preserve of "weird people on the internet" but admitted she was flattered to be named among the supposed members: "I guess you've kind of made it when they think you're in the Illuminati!" However, she added she was tolerant of people who wanted to believe in the theory because: "I believe in aliens." On the other hand, Madonna might just be a believer – all the more interesting given that she has frequently been accused of being a member herself. Speaking to Rolling Stone, she hinted that she had secret knowledge of the group. The claim is not so shocking given that she released a single titled 'Illuminati.' She said: "People often accuse me of being a member of the Illuminati, but the thing is, I know who the real Illuminati are." In 2016, Beyonce thrilled her fans by unexpectedly releasing a new single, Formation, in February ­– but conspiracy theorists were excited for another reason. The very first line of the track acknowledged the rumors: "Y'all haters corny with that Illuminati mess." When Prince died suddenly of an accidental overdose in April of the same year, a small but vocal corner of the internet accused the Illuminati of killing the singer-songwriter, who was famous for fiercely protecting his copyrights and artistic freedom from industry interference. "The Illuminati talk won't stop coming and what doesn't help is that Prince himself seems to have been genuinely convinced that the organisation existed," reports one gossip website. In 2009, the singer appeared on T.V. to warn of influential mystery figures controlling the world through "chemtrails" – chemicals pumped into the air via jet planes to manipulate human behavior.   Some other conspiracies are . The Illuminati killed Paul Walker. After starring in 7 films in the Fast and Furious franchise, Paul Walker fans were shocked by his ironic death in 2013. He was the passenger in a Porsche that careened out of control and crashed into a pole — or so the media said. But if you ask conspiracy theorists, the Illuminati is actually to blame. According to the YouTuber known as Shane, the Illuminati murdered Walker after he threatened to expose the group. The story goes that Walker was involved in charity work when he came across a bunch of wrongdoings like embezzlement behind the scenes that he wanted to go public with. But, of course, the Illuminati couldn't let that happen and took him out via drone strike.   The Illuminati killed JFK. History buffs know JFK died after being shot twice by Lee Harvey Oswald, but many people aren't convinced. According to TIME, 70% of Americans believe the assassination is part of something way bigger… So did the Illuminati have something to do with it? According to The Conspiracy Zone, the answer is ABSO FUCKIN LUTELY. Their evidence is fascinating: JFK was shot in a triangle. ‘John Kennedy' has 11 letters in it. The assassination date (11/22/63) includes multiples of 11. His limo was traveling 11 miles an hour… the list goes on.  Why would the Illuminati want JFK dead? Apparently, JFK planned on bringing U.S. troops home from Vietnam and wanted to end the Federal Reserve to end the national debt, which would take away the Illuminati's control over the country. He was killed just days after replacing Federal Reserve Notes. Conspiracy theorists have pointed to audio from the day of his assassination that proves there was more than one shooter, as well as a bullet trajectory that doesn't match that of Oswald's position.   Kesha's song ‘Die Young' is an Illuminati anthem.   Theorists say Kesha's music also addresses the secret society, whose symbols abound in her early music videos. Take, for example, the video for ‘Die Young:  The Illuminati symbolism is so blatant that even Billboard called it out, referencing the numerous triangles, an upside-down cross, and all-seeing one eye. The video even begins with a flashing skull and crossbones. According to conspiracy theorist The Vigilant Citizen, “Illuminati symbols are becoming more prevalent because that was the plan all along: To gradually make them part of popular culture.” Oh boy.   Lady Gaga is an “Illuminati puppet.” Lady Gaga is another pop star rumored to be part of the Illuminati. Again, theorists call out the overt symbolism in her videos and persona, calling it a “tribute to mind control.” They say her stage name ‘Gaga' refers to being totally absent-minded, which can be achieved through mind control. Furthermore, in her early days, many of her videos were rife with triangles and all-seeing eye symbolism. However, some say her newest project proves that she's broken free from the Illuminati. After a little hiatus, she boasts a more subdued, realistic image and more meaningful, artistic music. So, then, why didn't they just kill her? In an appearance at Harvard, Gaga talked about how unhappy she was in the entertainment industry. She calls herself a ‘Stefanie/Gaga hybrid,' which Illuminati theorists saw as proof that she became an alternate, demonic personality under Illuminati control. She also says she disliked “being used to make people money,” another potential dig as being an “Illuminati puppet.”   Donald Trump is an Illuminati mind controller.   If all of these stars are under Illuminati mind control, who's doing the controlling? Aside from alleged Illuminati king Jay-Z, Donald Trump's hand signals reveal his status as a top Illuminati member. While using your hands when you talk is normal, conspiracy theorists say Trump's rather odd gestures are secret messages. The classic “a-ok” symbol apparently means the devil's number ‘666.' However, he also frequently makes the triangle symbol with his hands when he's at ease — which could be the same Illuminati gesture Jay-Z always makes or a reference to the vagina.    The Kanye West/Kim Kardashian/Taylor Swift feud was fabricated by the Illuminati. Apparently, when West humiliated Swift on stage at the 2009 VMAs, he welcomed her to the Illuminati.   As we know, they've managed to keep the feud in the media for years. While most people have begun to agree that anything these people do is just for publicity, according to The Vigilant Citizen, it's actually an Illuminati “psychological operation” aimed at kids “to precondition them to start believing in fabricated events.”   OK, lastly, let's talk about the lizard Illuminati. David Icke, the nut job conspiracy theorist, is the leading proponent of this theory.  This should explain it from an article on Time.com,    They are among us. Blood-drinking, flesh-eating, shape-shifting extraterrestrial reptilian humanoids with only one objective in their cold-blooded little heads: to enslave the human race. They are our leaders, corporate executives, beloved Oscar-winning actors, and Grammy-winning singers. They're responsible for the Holocaust, the Oklahoma City bombings, and the 9/11 attacks ... at least according to former BBC sports reporter David Icke, who became the poster human for the theory in 1998 after publishing his first book, The Biggest Secret, which contained interviews with two Brits who claimed members of the royal family are nothing more than reptiles with crowns. (Picture Dracula meets Swamp Thing).  The conspiracy theorist and New Age philosopher, who wore only turquoise for a time and insisted on being called Son of God-Head, says these "Annunaki" (the reptiles) have controlled humankind since ancient times; they count among their number Queen Elizabeth, George W. Bush, Henry Kissinger, Bill and Hillary Clinton and Bob Hope. Encroaching other conspiracy theorists' territory, Icke even claims that the lizards are behind secret societies like the Freemasons and the Illuminati. Since earning the dubious title of "paranoid of the decade" in the late 1990s, Icke has written several books on the topic, including his latest work, The David Icke Guide to the Global Conspiracy, while operating his own website — complete with merchandise and advertisements.

Greetings Oddities! You've heard many personalities talk about the Illuminati, but what did they actually tell you? Chances are, not very much. As a fan of history, and podcasting, i have traditionally been disappointed with the lack of detail on Adam Weishaupt, and The Perfectabilist crew. I wanted do an episode, or two, with some of the facts about this august cabal that are often left out. The tidbits that could help us better understand the structure, and spirit behind the conspirators of all conspirators. Hopefully, I've done just that. It's been a fun trip learning so much about such and infamous group in which i have been hearing about since i first got into politics, and conspiracy. I sincerely hope you enjoy Part One, and get something out of it that will stick with you. Maybe something you can even stump your history buff, and conspiracy friends with.  Thank you as always for your support!   Cheers, and Blessings   The Odd Man Out   Support My Work Odd Man Out Patreon https://www.patreon.com/theoddmanout   Show Notes   The order of the Illuminati founded on May 1, 1776by Dr. Adam Weishaupt professor of Canon Law in the University of Ingolstadt.    The order of the Illuminati appears as an accessory to Freemasonry. It is in the Lodges that the Minervals are found, & prepared for Illumination. They must have gone through the 3 degrees of the blue lodge. He said, his doctrines are the only true freemasonry. Yes, princes and nations shall disappear from of the face of the earth; yes, a time shall come when man shall acknowledge no other law but the great book of nature: This revolution shall be the work of the secret societies and that is one of our grand mysteries. The great strength of our order lies in its concealment. Let it never appear in any place in its own name but always covered by another name and another occupation. Private letter between members of the illuminati and published by the elector of Bavaria The power of the order must surely be turned to the advantage of its members. All must be assisted. They must be preferred to all persons otherwise of equal merit.

He believed Weishaupt to also be very familiar with the teachings of Rosicrucianism as well. Interestingly enough, the two secret societies were at war. They were indeed rival fraternities. The Golden, & Rosy Cross had printed pamphlets concerning the dangers of the Order of The Illuminati, & unknown at the time, had their agents placed into the Order to learn of their plans, teachings. On Freemasonry, Weishaupt said no man can give account of the origins, history, goals, nor any true explanation of its mysteries and symbols. Therefore, any man can use the explanation of his choice. That being the case, no one order should stand at the top.   “If the sincere and thoughtful Mason would “take notice” of the symbolism and the use made everywhere in the Lodge of the word “Light,” and remember that the real Initiates are called also “the Illuminati." ~ J.D.

Jon E. Graham is an award winning writer, translator, and graphic artist.  He specializes in books on Surrealism, esoteric traditions, and folklore.  Books he has translated include The Immaculate Conception by Andre Breton and Peter Eluard, Little Anatomy of the Physical Unconscious, and many others. In this book, we focus on his translation of The Bavarian Illuminati:  The Rise and Fall of the World's Most Secret Society written in 1914 by Rene Le Forestier.  Le Forestier utilized as much primary source material in researching this book as was available at the time.  Bavarian academic Adam Weishaupt founded the short-lived Bavarian Order of the Illuminati in 1776, mainly as a reaction to Jesuit stranglehold on education in Bavaria at the time.  An intelligent, but vain individual, Weishaupt's grand design didn't last more than 10 years. Yet the idea of the Illuminati and their efforts to sabotage the Church and other esoteric organizations planted seeds that still bear fruit today of a global organization with its tendrils in everything from the government to the stock market.   However, as pointed out by the author, the Illuminati couldn't keep itself secret for a decade, let alone for hundreds of years.

This Sunday, my guest is Jon E. Graham who has translated numerous books from French into English one of which will be the main subject of this week's episode, ‘The Bavarian Illuminati: The Rise and Fall of the World's Most Secret Society' being available in English for the first time. Jon has been interested in the occult since his teenage years but began to focus more on the subject while living in France having close connections to a group of French surrealists in Paris. He'll be telling us how surrealism and occultism have been related especially since WWII and what his approach was on his path. As of today, Jon has embraced runes and the Norse cosmology as a working system for himself. Jon's amazing translation of ‘The Bavarian Illuminati: The Rise and Fall of the World's Most Secret Society' has been recently published with Inner Traditions and is based on the French original by René Le Forestier (1868-1951). Back in his time, Le Forestier was highly regarded for his scholarly studies of forms of freemasonry and particularly for debunking occult groups fighting for members during the 19th century as well as providing in-depth psychological portraits of the personalities involved. Jon will tell us about the person of Le Forestier, his writing style and concept of research. Two of the main characters that made the history of the Bavarian Illuminati:Adam Weishaupt (left) and Freiherr Adolph von Knigge (right) One of the main characters of the Bavarian Illuminati is probably a well-known name among our audience, Adam Weishaupt, professor at the University of Ingolstadt, Bavaria. We will go into great detail on this fascinating individual and explore all the influences, how he ended up fighting against the Jesuits and against censorship at university despite of being not only a professor for law but also of Canon law. In this episode, we will also explore the overall political and societal system in Bavaria and talk about Weishaupt's ideas of democracy, freedom and (in a modern term) self-empowerment which made him turn against oppressive systems in general both of mundane and clerical nature and led to the foundation of the (in)famous Bavarian Illuminati on May 1st 1776. Of course, one can't talk about Illuminati in general or the Bavarian Illuminati in particular without discussing conspiracy theories so we will dig deep into the birth of those theories and how and why in 1786 the Illuminati were disbanded by the authorities. We will go on to question Weishaupt's interest in the occult and talk about his ultimate goals and also whether the Illuminati can be considered successful and where they are today. Finally, Jon will tell us about his upcoming projects involving a translation coming out in fall this year on Norse colonies of Greenland incorporating Inuit folklore, archaeology, church and trail history which all seem to show Greenland differently than one might expect. The Bavarian Illuminati at Inner Traditions Music played in this episode As much as I would love to tell you more about this week's music, I am unable to. I found it as free music to be used under a CC license, but could not find out more about the artist(s) that created it, except for their name. BUT I LIKED IT! And this is why I am playing it for you this week.   1) BLACK SNOW - by airtunes
