**Illuminism and Freemason Uprising Part I: A Deep Dive into Revolutionary History with Nesta Webster and James Billington** **Billington’s central thesis**: “… **the modern revolutionary tradition as it came to be internationalized under Napoleon and the Restoration grew out of occult Freemasonry**; that early organizational ideas originated more **from Pythagorean mysticism** than from practical experience; and that the real innovators were not so much political activists as literary intellectuals, on whom judeo German romantic thought in general — and Bavarian Illuminism in particular — exerted great influence (p. 87). The essence of **Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778) and Adam Weishaupt** (1748-1830) proposed **a state of “peacefully entered” liberty and equality**. But to accomplish this, it was necessary to root out all ideas of a hereafter, all fears of retribution for evil deeds, **and to substitute the new religion of Reason**. **The loosening of social ties follows. Both family and national life must cease to exist so to make the whole human race “one good, happy family**.” Thus, family clans, localism and nationalism is replaced with internationalism. Sound familiar? >**The third slogan was fraternity, but the ideal of social revolution (equality) came to dominate**. This also enabled these anti-socials (what Weishaupt called “useful larceny”) to engage in more lethal activities against the people. • • • • • The desire for revolutionary simplicity revealed itself in a mad search for geometric harmonies within the Masonic movement on the grounds that the occult mastery of circles, triangles and mathematical laws would lead to the rational organization of society. **The use of the term “circle” to describe a gathering of people came into popular use at this time**; by drawing all men into the redemptive influence of the magic Circle, man would become god; **democracy would become “deocracy”** (p. 103). Still, the Order of Illuminists ideals were often expressed in Christian terms, such as “regeneration” and the “**rebuilding of Jerusalem**”; but in practice called for a recovery of ancient, pagan, “natural” religion. Man would be liberated from his slavery to God… >According to Webster, **the union between the secret societies of Illuminism and Freemasonry was sealed in 1782 at the Congress of Wilhelmbad.** • • • • • >**The other movement that was brought forth at the Congress was pro-Semitism, or the emancipation of the jews.** The Illuminism headquarters was relocated to Frankfurt at the same time. >**Curiously, this new movement corresponded with the rise of the Sabbattean-Frankist influenced and wealthy House of Rothschild, as well as the jewish Oppenheimer, Wertheimer, Schuster, Spreyer and Stern families in Frankfurt.** Billington adds, “**The art of illuminism lay in enlisting dupes as well as adepts and by encouraging dreams of honest visionaries or the schemes of fanatics**; By flattering the vanity of ambitious egotists; **By working on unbalanced brains** or by playing such passions as greed and power **to make men of totally divergent aims serve the secret purpose of the sect**. People with money were welcomed but kept oblivious of actual secrets. The purpose is to win power and riches. **To undermine secular or religious government and attain the masters of the world.”** • • • • • Revolutionaries are believers, no less than the major religions past or present. >They believe in something called a “**perfect secular order**” which will come from the ashes of the traditional order (Billington). Long before Pol Pot and the Bolsheviks, Webster states that revolutionaries, including the Weishaupt Illumanists, declared that in the least educated person of the community all wisdom and virtue reside. **Education would only be of the most primitive kind**. >**To level society they then closed down the schools and burned the libraries in 1793. By the end of 1794, public education in France didn’t exist**.” https://www.woolstangray.eu/illuminism-and-freemason-uprising-part-i-a-deep-dive-into-revolutionary-history-with-nesta-webster-and-james-billington/
