I bet there's not a whole lot of people here that are aware of the fact that Illuminati was really just an organisation who's goal was to spread knowledge to the world. That's why they're called Illuminati, it basically means 'Enlighten'. The only reason people think they have something to do with the devil is because the church condemned them and claimed that they were devil worshippers (Y'know, because church hates science, especially 17th and 18th century church). And ofcourse conspiracy theorists gobbled it all up, and exagarated it until it became what it 'is' today.

I'm not sure about that, they have Baphomet symbolism. Either way, they are/were crazy.


I'd never heard of Baphomet before this, but a quick google got me this (from wikipedia):

"Since 1856, the name Baphomet has been associated with a "Sabbatic Goat" image drawn by Eliphas Levi[3] which contains binary elements representing the "sum total of the universe" (e.g. male and female, good and evil, etc.).[4] However, Baphomet has been connected withSatanism as well, primarily due to the adoption of it as a symbol by the Church of Satan.[5]"

Seems to me that the Baphomet was a symbol that had nothing to do with Satan, until the Church of Satan (a bunch of Psycos) adopted it, which happened after 1966, since the church of Satan didn't exist before that. Just another example of a symbol that was twisted out of it's original meaning, similar to the Swastika, which, before Hitler used it in his nazi flag, was a symbol of peace.

Also, can you show me what ties Baphomet to Illuminati?

And what is that picture of that rock there? Who wrote that? The Illuminati?
