Club of Rome and the Bohemian Grove...

I used to think that the Trilateralist stuff was insane ramblings, until I read THEIR WEBSITE.

 

Never heard of that one.

Interesting note:

When the capital of the U.S. was moved from Philidelphia to D.C. many of the architects of the monuments and buildings were Masons.

Some of whom were members of the Masionic Temple in Old Town Va which still stands to this day.

Many of the buildings bear the symbols of this group and many of the roadways in the capitol region form stars when viewed from above as noted by William H. Cooper in "Behold a Pale Horse".


Many of these symbols can be viewed also on U.S. currency and on many of the seals of government entities.

 

I'm LDS/mormon, and I've been told by some members who were freemasons that our "endowment" temple ceremony is similar in some ways to the freemason ceremony. i also see parallels to the catholic church's seven sacraments, which i haven't extensively researched either.

but i've never been involved in freemason ceremonies, and the "levels" and such i've heard of have no parallel. our church founder and several of its early leaders were freemasons. i've often heard that, about the same time in history, many of the founding fathers were also freemasons.

it seems as though there was some level of benefit to being in the society. i could see benefits at least in the same way as playing golf with a group of senators or judges could help a person with limited political/judicial power/authority. but if that is the extent of it, the society can't be "faulted" simply because of the success of its past members.

i've always thought the freemasons were originally the masons that built jewish temples, and they essentially performed the same ceremonies they saw performed in the temples of old. i've heard that the society is open to all faiths and is designed for the good of any who choose to be involved. they havent bombed any churces, so i'm ok with that assumption for now.

 

Definitely interesting! We do need to sometimes take a good look outside of our ordinary lives and see what is really happening.

 

Im a member of the flat earth society. we battle those old guys from x files for the control of society every day.

 

 

If only it was that sophisticated...

 

I've always thought this subject was quite interesting as well, and I was waiting for someone to bring up Dan Brown's book (which I concur with the greatness of it). Knights of Columbus are another society of this sort, but seriously, who wants to be a member of KOC?

 

I've always been interested in secret societies, but also find them incredibly umm.... "gay".

A bunch of dudes getting together however many times a week/month/year to have secret discussions/meetings that only they're privy too, sometimes involving costumes and strangely homo-erotic symbology and ceremonies.

Go do some research on the Skull and Bones and The Bohemian Grove...you'll see what i mean.

 

dont forget this classic......
