I'm sick of all the nonsense, ignorance about the "Illuminati" and what it is and who is in it. Well I'm going to tell you the truth about the Illuminati. All the Rapper, entertainer Illuminati is ignorant bs. And its sad because the general public just gets sucked into it, thinking they're an authority on it, with no significant knowledge.It all started in the 11th century with the Knights Templar..TEMPLARS were Christian Knights that were soldiers supposedly led by faith. It is said the Knights Templar had a secret code and agenda. This was that they actually wanted "Peace" among all, but they wanted to do so by controlling humanity through Christianity. Now I'm not downing religion, as I am a Christian, God wants us to have faith in him and follow him, but not as a means of control or oppression. the Knights Templar usually used means of aggression and violence to enforce their will upon others. They also started doubts with religion and things such as Jesus having a relationship with Mary Magdalene etc. Illuminati has nothing to do with the devil. Jumping to the 15th century and during the Italian Renaissance and the spread of Catholicism, the church hired them to help with experiments and research but after awhile the Illuminati scientist started discovering things that would put down religion or rather disproved things that happened that were supposed to be from God. So the church put a ban on the Illuminati but since they didn't stop their research the church ordered everyone excommunicated and some killed. So they went into hiding. Â Illuminati means "The Enlightened Ones". They are the product of the Catholic Church. "The Enlightened Ones" symbol was the "All Seeing eye" which is the pyramid with the eye at the top, indicating that they were higher and enlightened more than anyone and had a greater understanding than all. This symbol is seen on our dollars with the Latin motto "Novus Ordo Seclorum", Which translates to "New Order of the Ages". All this leads up to freemasonry with the founding fathers etc, this is why many question how Christian were our founding father's and were they part of some sort of secret society, but things get foggy in that era. Illuminati is not the entertainers and the rappers etc. but the people who technically "own" or "run" the country behind the scenes and through our government, politically and economically. Families in these industries or groups are said to be in the "illuminati" such as the families who run the Oil companies, stocks etc. Such as the Bush family. This started mainly back in 15th century Italy. back to the15th century Italy and the Italian renaissance, Ever heard of the Borgia's. They were sort of a "royal" family per say, a very prominent wealthy family in italy who were said to have basically ran the government and Catholic Church behind the scenes. This was even more specualted when the father(Rodrigo Borgia) became Pope Alexander VI, many doubted their seriousness of faith, and it was thought that he bought himself into the papacy. Well here's where the Illuminati "control" aspect comes in even more. At the time the Christian's were fighting the Holy Crusades against the so called infidels. The enemy that the church was fighting was the northward movement of Islam as far up into Europe as Germany. These Middle Eastern Islamics took control of Constantinopole in Turkey and threatened the stronghold that the Roman Empire and in turn the church had on the world at the time. Pope Alexander used the age old tactic of discrediting an opponent to weaken his position. One major obstacle that faced Alexander and the church was the fact that Jesus, who their entire religion was based on was physically the same as the Islamics that they were fighting against. He was represented in all paintings, carvings and sculptures as the dark skinned man of Middle Eastern origin that he was. Nazareth certainly was in the Middle Eastern area that later came under the influence of Islam. How could they possibly convince their constituency of the wickedness of the enemy when their own messiah looked like them? Although the original Christians were certainly Middle Eastern people of color, by the time Alexander ascended to the papacy, Europeans had long taken control of the church. Pope Alexander VI's solution was to have every image of the real Jesus destroyed and literally had the Vatican gutted and redone. He commissioned Leonardo Di Vinci to recast Jesus in the image of his son Cesare Borgia with the express intent of passing off historical Jesus as European in appearance. To this day, there are armed guards stationed around the clock at the entrances of the catacombs to keep anyone from viewing the original wall carvings of Jesus in his legitimate ethnic representation. This is why the pictures that we see in mostly all our churches are not an actual interpretation of Jesus, but are actually of Cesare Borgia. This was a way of control, and why some say in 1492 the entire planet was hoodwinked. So maybe some devil-worshipping crap got mixed in along the way, but that is not where it originally came from and has nothing to actually do with the actual "Illuminati", mainly entertainers use this as a publicity stunt, bc honestly, if you hear something about somebody worshipping satan, you're going to go listen to their music to see if you can hear any subliminal messages in their music and watch their videos to see if you can find any symbolism. That's getting them more buzz. They do it to mess with our heads, bc the general public will believe almost anything we see or hear about people some of us shallowly idolize. Bet you never thought of it that way huh? Well I'm getting off my soapbox for now, but if you have any questions feel free to contact me at 864-787-5129
