Does A Satanic Cult
Rule The World?
By Henry Makow PhD

"Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the field of
commerce and manufacture, are afraid of something. They know that
there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so
interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they better not speak
above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it." Woodrow
Wilson, The New Freedom (1913)
The "Maryland Sniper" is on everyone's mind.
In March, Svali, an ex-Illuminati mind controller wrote:
"There is a lot more going on in the suburbs around Washington, DC
than most people realize," She described how the Illuminati cult
brainwashed and trained people to become assassins.
http://www.centrexnews.com/columnists/svali/2001/05/0507.html
Has the mainstream media suggested a possible link to this cult? Do I
need to ask?
In Svali's words, "who do you think owns AOL-Time Warner?"
To date, 12 people have been hit. Will the sniper stop at 13? Thirteen
is a significant number in Freemasonry, which is an Illuminati
vehicle. Thirteen represents Christ and his 12 disciples. The number
signifies their scorn and hatred for Christianity.
The "Maryland sniper," (like September 11 and the "War on Terror")
appear designed to traumatize and manipulate the public. I'm guessing
that the sniper's "purpose" is to build a case for gun control and
domestic involvement by the military.
Did you know that a "terrorist" started the First World War by killing
the heir to the Austrian throne? The terrorist was a Freemason. Most
wars are engineered by the Illuminati to weaken civilization and
create a global police state, the "New World Order."
We need to see current events in a new way. The conflict is NOT
between countries or religions or "civilizations."
The conflict is between the people and most of our "leaders" --
government, media, religion, education and business who owe their
position to this extremely powerful and evil cult. They are traitors.
Who is the Illuminati? We are still living off the twilight rays of
Western Civilization, which was based on Christianity. Civilization is
always based on a religion, an ideal. Christ taught that God is
Immanent and His Plan is to manifest Himself through His Creation. We
must do His will rather than pursue our own selfish desires. Kings
derived their authority from God and were answerable to Him.
The Jewish Pharisees rejected Christ. They practised a naturalistic
religion that turned Christ's message on its head. Man is God, rules
the universe, and defines reality. We can indulge our desires. Dating
back to Zoroastrianism, the Jewish Cabala reverses the roles of God
and Lucifer and embraces occult symbols, rituals and blood sacrifices.
This is the Cosmic Struggle between Spirit and Matter: God will be
Immanent; Matter will resist. This is the conflict between God (the
view that man is unfinished, and dependent on Divine revelation) and
Lucifer (man is already god.)
The Cabalists secretly dedicated themselves to destroying Christianity
and Western civilization. In 1773 Amschel Mayer Rothschild convened a
meeting of 12 prominent Jewish bankers and other prominent Jewish
personalities and submitted a programme to level the social order
using the contradictory promise of "liberty" and "equality." In 1776,
they had Adam Weishaupt organize the Order of the Illuminati, which
merged with Freemasonry in 1782. Freemasonry is Cabala and, in the
words of Andre Krylienko, (The Red Thread) it was "launched for the
purpose of enlisting non-Jews consciously or unconsciously in the
service of Jewry." (p.93)
The Illuminati was behind the revolutionary movements of the 18th --
20th Century as well as their respective reigns of terror. The bankers
used their power to spread their Satanic convictions. They had
finagled a monopoly on credit (usurping the government's right to
create money) and they needed to control the world in order to protect
this prize.
Their influence on world history can be seen in the story of the red
hexagram, commonly known as the "Star of David." According to
researcher (Fritz Springmeier,) the Star of David was not associated
with Jews until the Rothschilds adopted it as their symbol in 1822.
The Rothschilds were considered the leaders of the Jews but I don't
know if the Jews knew the Rothschilds were Satanists. The Star of
David is really "The Seal of Solomon," an occult symbol for the
Satanic. Solomon worshipped the star "Astoreth."
http://www.wealth4freedom.com/Rothschild2.html
The red hexagram became the symbol of two Rothschild-Illuminati
creations, Soviet Russia and Israel. It may explain why both dreams
have turned sour. Soviet Communism was created to destroy Tsarist
Russia and build the "New World Order." Israel is supposed to become
the capital and religious seat of the new Masonic world government.
Before we feel smug, the Great Seal of the United States is also a
Masonic symbol. According to Eustace Mullins, the top of the pyramid
is missing to indicate that they have not yet put into operation the
final stages of their conspiracy. "The eye represents that Great
Architect of the Universe, a cabalist concept; it is enclosed in a
triangle which is the symbol of magic. The thirteen steps refer to
Satan, Belial and rebellion..." (The Curse of Canaan, 141) The
inscription "Novo Ordo Seclorum" means "New Secular Order."
Mullins says the leading international bankers were motivated by
freemasonry: "From the year 1776, Freemasonry has been an omnipresent
international government operating treasonably from within the United
States, and it has exercised those powers ever since." (140)
Without fanfare, Freemasonry is being introduced as the New World
Religion. We are being brainwashed with it every day. So you need to
know that:
+Freemasonry is a religion that believes Lucifer is the "God of light
and God of good, struggling for humanity against Adonay, God of
darkness and evil."
+It is a secret society that demands adherents swear blind obedience
on pain of death before they even know what it represents.
+It practises deception. It reserves its truths for the adept; the
initiate is "intentionally mislead by false interpretations."
+It preaches "tolerance" and the universality of all religions in
order to negate them all. Christianity is especially abjured.
"Universality does not mean Christianity." (Quotes from Masonic Texts
from Gary Kah, En Route to Global Occupation pp.120-140)
Freemasonry is taught to your child. For example, a survey of schools
in my city shows that 75% no longer use the word "Christmas" to
describe their holiday season festivities. Instead Christmas has been
replaced with such jargon as "winter concerts" and "international
celebration of holidays."
The Christmas tree at the Legislature was renamed "multicultural tree"
until a storm of protest forced the politicians to relent.
"We have to abandon our culture in order to respect everyone else's?
It's kind of silly." one parent complained.
But this is exactly the agenda: To destroy Christianity, just as they
have destroyed empires, nations, heterosexual identities and nuclear
families. The agenda is to strip people of power and identity leaving
us defenceless in the face of one-world tyranny.
The lesson of this story is that God is indispensable. He is Reality.
We cannot deny Him without denying the principle of our own
fulfillment. A secular world order is prey to the devil. This is
impasse we are in. We are ruled by a Satanic cult.
Some things we can do: 1) boycott the mass media; 2) "out"
politicians, teachers and media figures who are pushing the freemason
agenda; 3) refuse to hate other people or fight other countries; 4)
celebrate the things the Masons hate nationhood (internationalism
causes war) heterosexual identities, nuclear families, Christianity
and God.

Jeff,
Regarding Henry Makow's article and other similar commentaries, I
would agree that the world is in the grip of something very evil.
However, I find it hard to see how Christianity is the answer. If one
accepts that much of what we see is manipulated by an "illuminate" how
can it be said that the religion of Christianity has escaped from said
manipulation?
The Christian religion started with the Romans around 325AD. The
emperor Constantine pulled together various cults, some of whom
centered around Jesus and mixed them with the roman cult of Mithraism.
Mithra was a sacrificial sun god and the template for the mythology of
Jesus Christ. So the Religion of Christianity is actually a reworking
of Pagan mythology and nothing new. The aim of this was to have a
religion to unite all cults and one which could be imposed easily over
other religions as the Romans attempted to conquer the world. Doesn't
that sound a little like the dreaded one world religion that will be
imposed on us? Of course, it's not a problem if it happens to already
be your religion.
So the next step, as some would advocate, is to just accept the
message of Christ and forget the pagan stuff. And now I'm confused.
The bad thing about illuminist is it tells us we are gods and dupes us
into following Lucifer (whose symbol is the morning star); so what am
I to make of Christ telling us that we shall be as gods and describing
himself as the morning star?
Perhaps it's time to drop the Religion thing. The truth is the truth,
and we can only seek it when our minds are free from preconceived
ideas that cause the thinker to compromise and distort information in
an effort to get it to fit in to his already set world view.
Religion sets man against man, surely that's what the new world order
wants?
Regards,
Steve

The Christian religion started not in Rome, but in the Hebrew
Prophets, some dating back more than 4000 years before the birth of
the Savior. This 'Joseph Campbell' revisionism is a lot of hooey.
Sure, there have been many legendary gods and demigods which
sacrificed themselves. Blood sacrifice is one of the most ancient of
spiritual/religious paradigms. However, the construct for Messiah/The
Christ is unique in that it was prophecied to the letter thousands of
years in advance, and those prophecies came to pass, to the letter.
One might argue that 'Roman Catholic CHURCHIANITY' started around
325AD/Rome, but Christianity has been in existence since Adam and Seth
and Enoch and Noah, in types and shadows of the forecoming incarnation
-- as Jesus taught, "The Lord said unto my Lord," speaking of David,
who knew the Son of God preincarnate, as did all the patriarchs and
all the blessed women who miraculously bore children as a type of the
coming virgin birth. When Jesus quoted the Torah, "have I not said ye
are gods?" he was mocking the state of man which had fallen into such
depravity and sin, while simultaneously teaching the elect that,
through the remission of sins possible in Him, by faith, all things
would be possible to them.
It has been said that the Bible is like a rope. For some it is a
length just long enough to hang themselves. Their end is just. And for
others, a life-line to salvation and eternal life. In as much as for,
say, Judas, the existing scriptures stood as a record of his
condemnation even before he was born, so also they stand as
confirmation for the elect of God, whose hearts long for His kingdom
and righteousness over the "world system" (of which Satan is "god of
this world/system"), to the glory of God.
The present "world system", which is Satanic and seeks power for
itself under Humanism, devoid of true God, aligns itself with base
nature, presuming all glory to the creation rather than its glorious
Creator. This is paganism. "For they exchanged the truth of God for a
lie, and worshipped and served the creature rather than the Creator"
(Romans 1). And that included the worship of the heavens, and animals,
idols of creatures, symbols, and even men. But God is greater than the
things He has created. And Christ was that very creator (John 1:1-5).
All things came into existence by Him and through Him. Even for Him.
And presently...
"God, who at different times and in various manners spoke in ancient
times to the fathers by the prophets, Has in these last days spoken
unto us by his own Son, whom he has appointed heir of all things, by
whom also he made the worlds; Who being the brightness of his glory,
and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the
word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on
the right hand of the Majesty on high:" Hebrews 1:1
By the way, the Roman Church has NOT escaped the influence and power
of the Illuminati. It is, at the very least, a central part of it. But
this was never and will never be the church established by Jesus
Christ. We are presently in the hour of the temptation of the
protestant church, and it is not faring much better against the wiles
of Satan. But God will save and spare a remnant, and even a remnant
from among the nations who did not know Him. Even from among the Jews,
who reject Him. (Matthew 25:31-46)

The article states that "The "Maryland Sniper" is on everyone's mind,"
and then by innuendo, attempts to tie the illuminati (who have not
existed since the late 1700's) to the sniper, which is particularly
amusing since the sniper was caught a few days later and found to be a
pathetic loser, an ex soldier, a Muslim and is not a Mason.
The article then goes on to cite the "importance" of the number 13,
since it: " .[is a] number [that] signifies their (Masons) scorn and
hatred for Christianity." This is an interesting assertion, since
nowhere in Masonic Ritual is the number 13 used, nor is it used in
lodges, nor is it represented in lodges. The number 13 has no
significance to Masons. How can anything that begins with such
egregious misinformation and misstatement of fact be taken seriously?
Another interesting claim made in the article is that: " . a
"terrorist" started the First World War by killing the heir (Franz
Ferdinand) to the Austrian throne. The terrorist was a Freemason." The
reason that this claim is interesting is that history records the name
of the terrorist, he was a young man named Gavrilo Princip -- one of
seven young Bosnians that the Black Hand recruited. This is a historic
fact, what is also a historic fact, is that Gavrilo Princip was not a
Mason. This is the third claim made in the article that is patently
false and easily verifible. A trend is beginning to appear.
The next absurd claim is that: "Most wars are engineered by the
Illuminati to weaken civilization and create a global police state,
the "New World Order." So, lets see, World War I was started over the
growing German hegemony in Europe, France's fears, Russia's fears,
Austria's slow dissolution and Italy's desire for power.
World War II started because the Treaty of Versailles imposed such
draconian punishment on Germany that it paupered the country and did
not address the underlying nationalism. Hitler, using the Jews and
communists as an excuse, played on the pride of the Germans to
essentially rekindle World War I. The Koren War was fought to "prevent
the spread of communism", as was Vietnam.
None but the most die hard rods-are-real/the-CIA-Killed-Kennedy
conspiracy cultists could believe that the Illuminati were behind
these conflicts! There is no evidence for this assertion, and truth be
told, the world overall is a better place now and there is ample
evidence that the Illuminati no longer even exist. The United Nations,
while for the most part a waste of money, gives nations a place to
gather and work out their differences, and Germany is gone as a world
power. No Illuminati here.
The rhetorical question is asked as to who the Illuminati are, and
never answers the question, instead swerving off into a diatribe
against those of the Jewish faith. Research reveals into the whys,
wherefores and whos of the Illuminati reveal a lot! For instance, at:
http://www.english.upenn.edu/~jlynch/Frank/Contexts/illumin.html the
following information, representative of that available in any well
stocked library, is found":
The Order of the Illuminati, a secret society whose name means
"Enlightened Ones," was founded in 1776 by Adam Weishaupt (1748-1830),
a former Jesuit and professor of canon law at the University of
Ingolstadt.
Specific knowledge about the society is scarce. The Order of the
Illuminati was established with some unspecified ties to the Masonic
lodges of Germany; as a secret society within a secret society, the
Illuminati have produced at least as many myths as verifiable facts.
The sympathies and beliefs of Weishaupt himself, for instance, have
been claimed by countless groups -- atheists, Cabalists, rationalists,
democrats, socialists, anarchists. Some trace the Illuminati back to
the Knights Templar, to Gnostic cults, to ancient Egypt, and even to
Atlantis. In the 1790s, some credited (or blamed) the society with
manipulating the American and French Revolutions. In the United
States, Federalists encouraged people to believe Thomas Jefferson and
the Democratic Republican Party were controlled by the Illuminati in
Europe.
It is not strictly necessary to disentangle fact from fiction, since
the influence of the Order was greater in legend than in fact. But
several things can be stated about the Illuminati with some degree of
certainty. The two central figures in the organization were Weishaupt
and Adolph Franz Friedrich Ludwid Baron Von Knigge. The members of the
Illuminati are known to have favored free-thinking and radical
politics, and were often alleged to have ties with Jacobins (Weishaupt
and the Illuminati are discussed in Abbé Barruel's History of
Jacobinism, which Mary Shelley is known to have read in October 1814).
The Order promoted a belief in deism and a doctrine of spiritual
perfection: the society was in fact first known as the Order of
Perfectibilists.
At their height, the Illuminati claimed over two thousand members, not
only in Germany but in France, Belgium, Holland, Denmark, Sweden,
Poland, Hungary, and Italy, including Goethe, Herder, and many other
prominent nobles and reformers. But the Bavarian government cracked
down on the Illuminati and other secret societies in 1784 for
allegedly plotting a massive overthrow of Europe's monarchies,
although it was unable to squelch them entirely. By the end of the
eighteenth century, however, the Illuminati had effectively disbanded,
although legends of their continued existence(and influence) persist
into the twentieth century (among, for instance, members of the John
Birch Society). Perhaps some of this confusion is owing to the fact
that over time, the word illuminati came to be used more expansively
for many enthusiasts of Enlightenment, including the followers of
Emmanuel Swedenborg.
The article goes on to discuss a character named Svali. This is a
completely fictional persona, and has been discredited too many times
to even bother doing more than point it out and just ANOTHER example
of incorrect facts. This makes five for five deliberately misstated
"facts". But it continues with a diatribe against Jews, in the form of
the Pharisees, where the claim is made that the Pharisees practiced:
". a naturalistic religion that turned Christ's message on its head."
This is an interesting claim, since the Pharisees predated Christ's
advent. The article then further states that the teachings of the
Pharisees was that: "Man is God, rules the universe, and defines
reality. We can indulge our desires." So far, the article is now six
for six in falsehoods and misstatements. Here is the truth about what
the Pharisee's believed:
The Pharisees ".tended to be middle class and open to religious
innovation. In the interpretation of the law the Pharisees differed
from the Sadducees in their use of oral legal tradition to supplement
the Torah, although their interpretations, once given, were
scrupulously adhered to. Pharisaic emphasis on divine providence led
to a marked fatalism, and they adopted a belief in resurrection and an
elaborate angelology. All this was rejected by the Sadducees.
In the New Testament the Pharisees appear as Jesus' most vocal
critics. Their insistence on ritual observance of the letter rather
than the spirit of the law evoked strong denunciation by Jesus; he
called them "whitewashed tombs" (Matt. 23:27) and self-righteous
lovers of display (Matt. 6:1-6, 16-18). The Pharisees are portrayed as
plotting to destroy Jesus (Matt. 12:14), although they do not figure
in the accounts of his arrest and trial. Despite Jesus' attacks on the
Pharisees--which were possibly on unrepresentative members of the
sect--he shared many beliefs with them, including the resurrection of
the dead.
The Pharisees held the Jews together after the destruction of the
Temple in AD 70. The sect continued into the 2d century, working on
the redaction of the Talmud and looking for the restoration of Israel
through divine intervention. Pharisees, quoted from: Groliers
Multimedia Encyclopedia, 1998 ed.
This is reported in the Groliers Multimedia Encyclopedia and other
reference works. As can therefore be determined, the Pharisees were
not some "nature loving naturalist sect," which denigrates them and
their faith, but rather, a group that lived by a strict interpretation
of ritual observance within the Jewish faith. The true intent of this
sub section is anti-Semitic, and serves no purpose in the overall
article except to serve as a platform for the utterance of
anti-Semitic propaganda. The article then goes on to claim that:
"Dating back to Zoroastrianism, the Jewish Cabala reverses the roles
of God and Lucifer and embraces occult symbols, rituals and blood
sacrifices." The real inference here is that Judaism is Satanic, which
is an interesting claim, seeing as Jesus WAS Jewish, and a son of the
line of David, the kings of Israel.
If that were the end, an assumption could be made of ignorance, but it
even goes further by claiming that ".the Cabalists secretly dedicated
themselves to destroying Christianity and Western civilization. In
1773 Amschel Mayer Rothschild convened a meeting of 12 prominent
Jewish bankers and other prominent Jewish personalities and submitted
a program to level the social order using the contradictory promise of
"liberty" and "equality."
This is an interesting assertion, that Amchel Mayer Rothschild called
any kind of meeting in 1773, since according to the family history and
birth records, Amshel Mayer Rothschild was BORN in June of 1773. It is
unlikely that Amshel Mayer Rothschild was doing anything more sinister
than sucking at his mother's breast that year! Facts are important,
they can't just be made up on the fly and expected to stand
unchallenged.
So far, every "fact" claimed or asserted in the article is false or
made up, as a simple examination of the facts has shown. However, it
gets worse, for then the article goes on to quote from the Protocols
of the Elders of Zion, a document that has been thoroughly debunked as
being a document created by the Czar in the early 1900s.
The Protocols purport to show that:
.. The Illuminati was behind the revolutionary movements of the 18th --
20th Century . The [Jewish] bankers used their power to spread their
Satanic convictions. . They {the Jews] had finagled a monopoly on
credit (usurping the government's right to create money)
Yet history and research by honorable men, dedicated to uncovering the
truth show these documents to be fakes. How can anyone quote from a
document that is a fraud?
How then are we to react when the article goes on to make the patently
false claim that Freemasonry is [a] Cabala and, in the words of Andre
Krylienko, (The Red Thread) it was "launched for the purpose of
enlisting non-Jews consciously or unconsciously in the service of
Jewry." (p.93). Well, that will come as a surprise to Masons, since
Masonic tradition informs us that Freemasonry has existed since before
the time of Christ and the Egyptians.
The article even puts forth the claim that: "Israel is supposed to
become the capital and religious seat of the new Masonic world
government." So which is it? Masons are the puppets of a worldwide
Jewish conspiracy or Masons are the worldwide conspiracy? How about
neither? The president of the United States, William Jefferso Clinton
couldn't keep it secret that he was getting blow jobs in the Oval
Office of the Whitehouse, yet no proof has ever been found that shows
this global conspiracy exists. But don't let making the claim stop
anyone from making up facts to suit their prejudices.
The article then goes on to rant about Masonic symbols on the dollar
bill as "proof" of a global conspiracy. Lets look at the facts about
the dollar bill: In its current incarnation, the bill was designed in
the 1950's, and included many traditional symbols. The pyramid, an
Egyptian symbol, was a popular motif in the 1950s, and was chosen and
displayed unfinished, because the great work of building the country
is not yet done.
The triangle is the capstone of the pyramid, and is shown being
lowered by God (this used to be possible before the atheists used the
liberal courts to strike down God), and the All Seeing Eye is the Eye
of God, over all our works. Despite the claims by Dr. Makow, who has
apparently never taken Latin class as a part of his English Literature
degree, Novo Ordo Seclorum means: A new order of the ages, not New
Secular Order, though I can see where some might get confused,
GUESSING at the translation.
The claim is even made that Freemasons have been an ". omnipresent
international government operating treasonably from within the United
States." and then goes on claim that: "Freemasonry is being introduced
as the New World Religion."
The exact opposite is true, and for several reasons. The first is that
Masonry is not a religion, any more than Boy Scouts, The Promise
Keepers or The Lion's Club, the Odd Fellows or the Elks Club is a
religion. Masonry takes good men, who want to be better men, men who
profess a belief in God, and through allegorical lessons, inculcates
moral teachings, illustrated by symbols. Christ taught using
allegorical tales, illustrated by symbols. Masonry demands that her
sons practice those virtues that are instilled in all men: Faith.
Hope, Charity, Truth, Honor, Integrity.
Most Masons are Christian, as this country is mostly Christian, and
claims that Masons worship the devil by any name shows a lack of any
kind of real idea of what Masonry is about. Masonry does not ask its
sons to: ".swear blind obedience on pain of death before they even
know what it represents." Blind obedience is never asked of any man.
Neither is Masonry a secret society, for all lodges are listed in the
phone book around the country, and Masons proudly wear and display
their affiliation with the fraternity with the Square and Compass.
Masons serve the government and society in all capacities in all
levels, from the trashmen in the street, to lawyers and judges in the
courts, they are your funeral directors, your priests, your chaplains,
your policemen, and yes, some are even politicians. This is not proof
that Masonry is secretly running the world, but rather proof that
Masonry attracts GOOD MEN, and makes good men better men. Masonry
teaches that a man must give back to the community, and some do that
in service to the country.
The article then misquotes Albert Pike by claiming that "Masonry [sic]
practices deception. It reserves its truths for the adept; the
initiate is "intentionally mislead by false interpretations." What
Albert Pike wrote was not referring to Masonry at all, but to the
practices of a group within the Knights Templar, in the 1300's, not
Masons at all.
In the whole article, there is one true statement, but even that is
concealed with a deliberate falsehood. It claims that "Masonry [sic]
preaches "tolerance"." (which is true, harmony being essential to all
societies, but especially to ours) but then adds in the lie stating
that: Masonry teaches that all religions are equal in order to negate
all religions. This is false, and ridiculous on its face. Masonry
teaches the Christly acceptance of all men, regardless of their faith,
not that all are the same or equal. In fact, Masonry does not teach
religious dogma at all, and encourages her sons to attend their
churches, synagogues and Mosques, for Masonry is not a replacement for
our obligations to God.
Most Masons are practicing Christians, or one faith or another, so the
claim that: ".Christianity is especially abjured." is ridiculous. To
support these inane contentions, the article quotes Gary Kah, who has
been completely discredited, not by Masons but by true researchers and
educated men.
The claim is also made that Freemasonry is taught to your child. The
"support" offered for this claim is that 75% of the schools in a city
no longer use the word "Christmas" to describe their holiday season
festivities. Instead Christmas has been replaced with such jargon as
"winter concerts" and "international celebration of holidays."
While it is true that political correctness is eliminating Christmas,
Easter, Halloween, Chanukah, etc., from our schools, our public places
and our places of business, this is not due to the influence of
Masons. Rather, it is due to stupid atheists like Madeline Murray
O'Hare and that clown who filed suit against the pledge of allegiance
in California.
Atheists don't want religious holidays mentioned at all, Muslims and
Jehovah's Witnesses don't want Christmas mentioned, good Catholics and
Baptists don't want Halloween mentioned. Masons have nothing to do
with any of this. In fact, Masonry as a whole takes no stand on
political/religious events. Individual Masons are free to take any
stand and believe anything they want, as long as they do not try to
speak as a Mason on any subject.
Since we live in a secular world, the article goes on to claim that
society is at an impasse, and that thus we are ruled by Satan. As a
Mason, and not speaking for all Masons but only for myself, as no man
speaks for all of Masonry, I would argue that the secular government
we have is a good thing.
No one wants to be told what religion to practice, how to believe, or
when and how to worship. The freedom to choose is essential to the
freewill that God granted us as His children. He wants us to chose
Him, to honor Him of our own free will and accord. Free will is not
Satanic, quite the opposite, for when you chose God, you abjure Satan.
This article does not prove Satanism, it does prove that before
writing on a subject, proper research should be done, and that facts
cannot be made up on the fly to support personal prejudices. Quoting
discredited, fabricated and false information does no service to
anyone, not to the author, not to his cause, and certainly not to God.
