Most celebrities like Rihanna, Katy Perry, Beyonce, Drake, Lil Wayne and on and on have pictures exploiting the Illuminati eye, baphomet and satanic salute symbols. What people don't understand is that the Illuminati is real and people are dying due to the Illuminati's agenda of a New World Order. Elberton Humanity Guidestones first commandment is to maintain humanity under 500,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature. All these all seeing eyes you are seeing are telling you a story and you must know how to read between the eyes. Big Brother is watching and wants your mind, soul, and body. These celebrities who are not writing checks but cashing them have no power or authority. They are puppets and followers. Entertainers, the colonized.

They own everything. Banks, oil, Wall Street, governments, the IRS, the world trade organization; the lot. For decades, many people have thought the world is made up of hundreds of independent nations, with no one in complete power. However, several theories have emerged, especially in the past century, that are leading people to believe this might not be the case. These theories state that there may be someone or a group of people, behind the scenes, controlling more than we could have ever thought. While many people think they are working towards a totalitarian world government, the Illuminati was an enlightenment secret society formed in the seventeen hundreds that has become a conspiracy theory in the modern era.

The conspiracy regarding the Illuminati has circulated for several years. This theory states that, “there is a ‘global elite’ society that is either in control or seeking to take control of the world” (Citation). Beliefs regarding the Illuminati conspiracy are prevalent in recent books and movies, reaching the cult fiction perception. A significant example is The Wizard of Oz, written by L. Frank Baum. The history behind The Wizard of Oz proves that this story line has had an essential role in the occult world all along. Associations of occultism, Illuminati rituals and Monarch Programming exists in sequence of books with satanic activity and intellect controlling it along the way. Viewers perceive The Wizard of Oz as an innocent fairytale, though the story has a deep symbolic meaning pertaining to the use of the Illuminati.

In the eighteenth century, Europe had the largest number of Secret Societies. There were three trends that Secret Societies got something good out of: "The Enlightenment" (a philosophical movement (Locke, Montesquieu and Voltaire) advocating human reasoning over obedience while strengthening the reasons for "Scientific" thinking), "Enlightened Despotism" (where society of every rank and status felt their values were threatened by the state. Freemasonry therefore seemed very appealing as it taught ways of conveying ancient wisdom and virtue), and “The growth against the reasoning of ‘Rationalism and Enlightenment’” as well as the fascination for nature's secrets which brings about a mystical, magical and even occult exaltation.

“This beady eye is all-seeing, all-knowing and all-powerful. It is allegedly the symbol of an influential secret society known as the Illuminati” (Waugh). The group known as the Illuminati is a cult that conspiracy theorist say control are everyday lives. The Illuminati have gotten into people's everyday lives and nobody knows the reason of how or why they did. Many people have not even heard of the Illuminati or what they are about. The ones that know what the Illuminati is see the group as a tall tale passed down through the ages. This is because the Illuminati is trying to stay hidden and in the shadows. The members of the Illuminati supposedly know more about what is going on than the outsiders do (Waugh). We know the Illuminati from the definition that is given by society and what makes the organization, along with members and

The French Revolution began in 1789 as an attempt, by the revolutionaries, to form a new government that would give the people more liberty, equality and value people’s rights. Between 1793 and 1794 the government used extreme ways to achieve their goals. This period of time, led by Robespierre, was called the reign of Terror because between 20,000-40,000 french people were killed by the government forces. The Reign of Terror was not justified for three reasons:The external and internal threat did not deserve it, they denied natural rights against people who opposed them and the methods of the Terror were too extreme.

Quite a few people believe that, contrary to what historians say, the Illuminati still exists today in a stronger form. According to the Illuminati, the Napoleonic Wars were caused by the Illuminati even though, by this time in history, they were supposedly non-existent (“History of the Illuminati” par. 3). Other areas that people say the Illuminati affects or controls today might include: music, world banking, economy, the United Nations, and even the United States itself. “The Illuminati tactic is to divide and conquer by supplying arms and money to both sides and instigating people to fight and kill each other in order to be able to achieve their objectives” (“The Illuminati Cult” par. 3). According to this source, the Illuminati gives reason to attack another country or group by causing some sort of catastrophic event and then giving each side what they need to just fight against themselves. “…the Illuminati worked out a blueprint for three world wars throughout the 20th century that would lead to a one world government by the end of the 20th century” (“History of the Illuminati” par. 5). This source then continues to say that the third world war will be against the Jews and Muslims and “will drain the international community to

The illuminati are a secret society that infiltrated government to rule the world. It all started in Bavaria on May 1st 1776 by group of European higher ups lead by Adam Weishaupt. Adams philosophy was that the Illuminati should one day rule the world with a one world government, or a new world order. Adam Weishaupt said, “The great strength of our order lies in its concealment, let it never appear in any place in its own name, but by another name, and another activity. None is fitter than freemasonry. the public is accustomed to it, expects little from it, and therefore will take little notice of it.”(Dr. Adam Weishaupt) with this being said

(Illuminati History) Originally Weishaupt had planned the order to be named the "Perfectibilists". The group has also been called the Bavarian Illuminati and its ideology has been called "Illuminism". Many influential intellectuals and progressive politicians counted themselves as members, including Ferdinand of Brunswick and the diplomat Xavier von Zwack, the second-in-command of the order. The order had branches in most European countries: it reportedly had around 2,000 members over the span of ten years. It attracted literary men such as Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and Johann Gottfried Herder and the reigning dukes of Gotha and Weimar. In 1777 Karl Theodor became ruler of Bavaria. He was a proponent of Enlightened Despotism and his government banned all secret societies including the Illuminati. Internal rupture and panic over succession preceded its downfall, which was affected by the Secular Edict made by the Bavarian government.] The March 2, 1785 edict "seems to have been deathblow to the Illuminati in Bavaria." Weishaupt had fled and documents and internal correspondences, seized in 1786 and 1787, were subsequently published by the government in 1787. Von Zwack's home was searched to disclose much of the group's literature.

Between 1789 and 1799, France went through one of the most dramatic events of modern European History: the French Revolution. The French population went through economic chaos, a dictatorship, and a civil war as well as other dramatic changes. During these years, the French decided to speak up for themselves and they became enemies of the French revolution. Internal enemies included the King, Louis XVI, Monarchists and Royalists and the Churches that were run by refractory priests. External threats were caused by aristocrats who had fled the Revolution; more specifically known as “émigrés”, Austria and Prussia. The latter were the more dangerous threats to the Revolution.

A particular question that is seldom pondered over and yet is capable of carrying so many doubts within it: who are we? Who are we as a society who can do the things we do? Who are we who can suffer from them? Award winning poet and essayist Susan Griffin confronts these distinct questions in her work titled, “Our Secret”. Griffin believes that a basic understanding of the things that play a part in the growth of an individual is essential to understanding who we are. The way a child is raised dictates how that child is going to become later on in life. One of the distinct highlights of Griffin’s essay was her use of describing the progress of the V1 rockets in World War II. Griffin studies the aspects of human nature by using these missile developments as a metaphor to symbolize the raising of children and the factors that can influence a growing individual. One of the prime figures that Griffin uses pertaining to these growing individuals was Heinrich Himmler, leader of the Nazi secret police. Griffin uses Himmler as an example to demonstrate how big of a role a parental figure can play in the development of a person.

In Susan Griffin’s work titled “Our Secret”, she discusses the relationship between the present-day and the earlier life of different people. She also compares the private and public lives of other people. Her piece is set during World War Two in the 1940s. Throughout the entire piece, Griffin compares the lives of people evolved in World War Two, people who were affected by the war, and her own life. She shows how even though they lived separate lives, they are still closely related.

Born out of the enlightenment era comes a secret society founded by Adam Weishaupt called the Bavarian Illuminati. Their main goal was to banish the oppression from the church and illuminate the corruption of the government. They are connected with the freemasons, another secret society that runs on a informational hierarchy. Some say the illuminati started the french revolution. Some famous members of the Bavarian Illuminati are George Washington and Mozart. Nowadays the illuminati is associated with a group of the most powerful influential families that control the mainstream media. The Modern day Illuminati have been depicted as lurking in the shadows and pulling the strings and levers of power in dozens of novels, films, television shows, comics, video games, and music videos.

In this essay I shall try to find whether the Terror was inherent from the French revolutions outset or was it the product of exceptional circumstances. The French revolution is the dividing line between the Ancien Regime and the modern world. After France the hierarchy that societies of the time had been founded on began to change and they began to sweep away the intricate political structures of absolute monarchy, but however to achieve this was the Terror absolutely necessary? And was it planned/ or was it just the extraordinary circumstances, which the French had lead themselves into once they had deposed of Louis the
