The Location of the Ark of the Covenant Revealed!!!

   People always ask me where I think the Ark of the Covenant is today and this question led me to carry out some deep research into the whereabouts of this ancient mystical relic. The Ark of the Covenant is one of the most fascinating of all Temple-related subjects. There are many theories about what happened to the Ark of the Covenant, and speculation abounds as to its actual location. Some people think it was taken to the Vatican, together with other Temple vessels, such as those depicted on the Roman monument, the Arch of Titus. There are many authentic, ancient historical chronicles, and even more popular legends, that attest to many sacred vessels having been taken away to Rome. However, this does not apply to the most holy feature of the First Temple, the Ark. Nevertheless, my research led me to two possible locations where the coveted Ark of the Covenant may be to today. One is in a small town in Ethiopia called "Aksum" and the other is under the "Temple Mount" in Jerusalem-under the Al-Aqsa Mosque!

   They shall make an ark of acacia wood," God commanded Moses in the Book of Exodus, after delivering the Israelites from slavery in Egypt. And so the Israelites built an ark, or chest, gilding it inside and out. And into this chest Moses placed stone tablets inscribed with the Ten Commandments, as given to him on Mount Sinai. Thus the ark “was worshipped by the Israelites as the embodiment of God Himself,” writes Graham Hancock in The Sign and the Seal. "Biblical and other archaic sources speak of the Ark blazing with fire and light...stopping rivers, blasting whole armies." (Steven Spielberg's 1981 film Raiders of the Lost Ark provides a special-effects approximation.) According to the First Book of Kings, King Solomon built the First Temple in Jerusalem to house the ark. It was venerated there during Solomon's reign (c. 970-930 B.C.) and beyond.  Then it vanished. Much of Jewish tradition holds that it disappeared before or while the Babylonians sacked the temple in Jerusalem in 586 B.C.

    However, through the centuries, Ethiopian Christians have claimed that the ark rests in a chapel in the small town of Aksum, in their country's northern highlands. It arrived nearly 3,000 years ago, they say, and has been guarded by a succession of virgin monks who, once anointed, are forbidden to set foot outside the chapel grounds until they die.

   It is interesting to note that Emperor Haile Selassie who was the last emperor of Ethiopia claimed to be the 225th monarch, descended from Menelik, the ruler believed responsible for Ethiopia's possession of the ark of the covenant in the tenth century B.C. The story is told in the Kebra Negast (Glory of the Kings), Ethiopia's chronicle of its royal line: the Queen of Sheba, one of its first rulers, traveled to Jerusalem to partake of King Solomon's wisdom; on her way home, she bore Solomon's son, Menelik. Later Menelik went to visit his father, and on his return journey was accompanied by the firstborn sons of some Israelite nobles—who, unbeknown to Menelik, stole the ark and carried it with them to Ethiopia. When Menelik learned of the theft, he reasoned that since the ark's frightful powers hadn't destroyed his retinue, it must be God's will that it remain with him.

  Many historians—including Richard Pankhurst, a British-born scholar who has lived in Ethiopia for almost 50 years—date the Kebra Negast manuscript to the 14th century A.D. It was written, they say, to validate the claim by Menelik's descendants that their right to rule was God-given, based on an unbroken succession from Solomon and the Queen of Sheba. But the Ethiopian faithful say the chronicles were copied from a fourth-century Coptic manuscript that was, in turn, based on a far earlier account. This lineage remained so important to them that it was written into Selassie's two imperial constitutions, in 1931 and 1955.

  In the second instance that relates to the most likely location of the Ark of the Covenant, it is interesting to note that tradition records that even as King Solomon built the First Temple, he already knew, through Divine inspiration, that eventually it would be destroyed. Thus Solomon, the wisest of all men, oversaw the construction of a vast system of labyrinths, mazes, chambers and corridors underneath the Temple Mount complex. He commanded that a special place be built in the bowels of the earth, where the sacred vessels of the Temple could be hidden in case of approaching danger. Midrashic tradition teaches that King Josiah of Israel, who lived about forty years before the destruction of the First Temple, commanded the Levites to hide the Ark, together with the original menorah and several other items, in this secret hiding place which Solomon had prepared. This location is recorded in Jewish sources, and today, there are those who know exactly where this chamber is. Jewish rabbis claim that the ark is still there, undisturbed, and waiting for the day when it will be revealed. An attempt was made some few years ago (in the early 1990s) to excavate towards the direction of this chamber. This resulted in widespread Moslem unrest and rioting. Jews claim that Muslims stand a great deal to lose if the Ark is revealed - for it will prove to the whole world that there really was a Holy Temple, and thus, that the Jews really do have a claim to the Temple Mount. (The official position of the Islamic Wakf, the body that governs over the Temple Mount, is that there never was a Holy Temple, and that the Jews have no rights whatsoever to the place).

Nigeria's biggest con artist, bishop Oyedepo floats an airline: "Dominion Air"

   
Yesterday it was pastor Chris and today I bring to you an expose of the fake and anti-christian lifestyle of one of Nigeria's biggest CON ARTISTS: bishop, David Oyedepo. This is a man that even the devil would frown upon and its apparent that Christ would be ashamed whenever this man is called a Christian.  This is a man that milks his feeble minded congregation dry with underhanded dictates and has become rich off the humble offerings and tithes of poor church members. What is more annoying with this fake prophet of the end times is that with the money acquired from the poor, he has obviously detached himself from he poor to which he is supposed to minister to. He has not affiliated himself with the high and the mighty and only recently, Nigeria’s richest pastor and self-styled bishop, David Oyedepo, has made a glistening addition to his business empire by floating an airline called Dominion Air. 
    Oyedepo, who a few years ago ignited debate on flamboyant Christianity by acquiring his fourth private jet, is the owner of Dominion Publishing House, Covenant University and an elite secondary school called Faith Academy. Listed by Forbes as Nigeria’s wealthiest pastor with a net worth of $150 million, David Oyedepo is a preacher and founder of Living Faith Church Worldwide, more popularly known as Winners’ Chapel. Besides his four private jets, Forbes also mentioned the preacher’s luxury homes in London and the United States.

Sources within the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC), the agency charged with business registration in Nigeria, confirmed the registration of Dominion Air with David Oyedepo as its chairman. Another source within a Lagos-based insurance firm known to handle most of Oyedepo’s businesses said the airline project had been in the works for six years and was only made a reality this year. The broker who balked at putting figures to the number of aircrafts so far purchased authoritatively said none of them is on lease. If Oyedepo’s entry into the airline business is creating exciting buzz in Nigeria’s stock exchange, the same cannot be said with the Christian community, especially the Pentecostal congregations, where the so-called men of God have been criticised for alienating their poor followers with their flamboyant lifestyle.

Money laundering

According to Lawrence Ofili, a member of the Save Nigeria Group (SNG), the social movement that staged days of protest over this year’s controversial fuel price hike, Nigerian pastors are increasingly acting like politicians who put themselves first before the people. “Pastor Oyedepo by his choice of businesses has severally demonstrated a disconnect between himself and hundreds of thousands of poor Christians who he claimed to have come to deliver. About 90 per cent of public schools in this country were built by early Christian missionaries; today Oyedepo has Covenant University but it is for children of millionaires,” says Mr Ofili.

“Even with the high school called Faith Academy, I am aware that most children in his congregation dream to be educated there but their parents who probably pay tithes and offerings cannot afford the school fees. His Faith Tabernacle accommodates 50,000 worshippers every Sunday; how many of them are going to fly Dominion Air? Honestly this project is not for the poor. He should have settled for mechanised farming to engage unemployed men and women.”
I just want to remind all of you that we are supposed to worship God, not men of God. "Touch not my anointed and do my prophet no harm" does not mean follow blindly. Anyone can carry the Bible and claim to be Pastor with all the wrong intentions. Be watchful because the bible says in the end times many false prophets will arise in the name of Jesus to deceive and to steal.

In Nigeria, we are known to be steeped in corruption and the canker worm has eaten into the very fabric of the Nigerian polity so much so that even the president is not innocent. But fate has a way of solving problems if man does not take action. The laws of nature hold that in a state of heightened chaos, order is restored via replacement reactions. This implies that the chaos would consume itself and order will return. This is what has started happening in Nigeria with corrupt officials now beginning to blow the trumpet on each other in order to escape the axe of natural justice. This is visible in the most recent comedy spectacle that was played out in the national assembly in Abuja about a day ago (15th March 2012). 
        The embattled SEC boss who has been shown to abuse her office threw mud at the lawmakers grilling her Under fire Director General of the Security and Exchange Commission, Arunma Oteh, fought back fiercely today after being accused by lawmakers for abusing her office and embarking on limitless spending.Today, Ms. Oteh said the lawmakers are furious at her because she turned down the request of the chairman, House capital market committee, Hernan Hembe, for a N44million tip. Ms Oteh said the lawmaker first asked for N39 million to defray the cost of the ongoing public hearing, and when she denied, the chairman asked for N5million.  That was in addition to the commission sponsoring a foreign trip for members of the committee, and paying them estacodes.  
    The hefty accusations have unsettled the mood at the hearing, which is being beamed live on television, and lawmakers are scrambling to play down the concerns. After the allegations were made, Mr. Hembe asked to identify representatives of the EFCC and the ICPC at the hearing, and said he was surrendering himself to their probe over the charges. Lawmakers discussed informally the possibilities of containing the news, with senior members questioning why the event was screened live in the first instance.  Premium could not ascertain the veracity of Ms. Oteh's allegation against the lawmaker but sources close to her said she arrived the hearing today fuming and threatening that she would unsettle the lawmakers and make them pay dearly for humiliating her Wednesday. Little by little dem de lick peppersoup finish...one day they will all expose themselves.

WORLD WAR III IS THE INEVITABLE WAR BETWEEN CHRISTIANITY AND ISLAM

The world we live in today is full of hatred and animosity between the Christians and the Muslims. This feud is as old as the emergence of Islam as a religion and it is this same feud that has developed into the various acts of terrorism visible all over the world today. We are all sitting on a virtual time bomb that will explode with the final war between Islam and Christianity. The Islamic fundamentalist nations such as Iran are developing or looking for a nuclear arsenal with which to wage this war and its only a matter of time before they have it.

  Nevertheless, a look at history shows that this was has been with us for a long time and is only about to move into a global world war. When he issued his ill-fated call to save Eastern Christendom from the Muslims around A.D. 1090, Pope Urban II unleashed what scholars across religious and ideological divides agree was one of history's biggest exercises in futility. Over the next 200 years, wave after wave of crusading knights wrecked havoc, death and destruction at the end of which, very little was gained. The holy city of Jerusalem was eventually recaptured by the Muslims, and experts say the only long-term outcome of the Christian Franks periodically storming the lands east of the Mediterranean Sea was an exacerbation of the suspicions and strife between Christianity and Islam.

Those were the mistakes of the Dark Ages, of course, an era when ignorance and barbarity shrouded the Western world before the intellectual illumination of the Renaissance and the Enlightenment saw reason and humanism triumph over superstition and feudalism. But tune in to the discourse sputtering from a number of radio and TV stations across the world in recent months, and "reasonable" is not a term that will instantly spring to the average listener's mind. By all accounts, the radical fringes within Christianity and Islam seem to have launched a modern-day crusade, a slander-to-vanquish battle where the mass media appears to have taken over from the sword as a weapon of choice.

In an interview with CBS' 60 Minutes last year, the Rev. Jerry Falwell called the prophet Mohammed a "terrorist" and "a man of war." Falwell's comments capped a TV season that saw televangelist Pat Robertson call the prophet a "robber and a brigand" and the Rev. Franklin Graham (son of the Rev. Billy Graham) denounce Islam as a "very evil and wicked religion."

On the other side, underground cassette tapes of vitriolic Friday sermons delivered by mullahs across the Muslim world are available from Cairo to Quetta. And from post-9/11 hideouts, al Qaeda continues to release taped messages promising a fight against the "infidels."

"They have taken their rabbis and their monks for gods beside Allah, and also the Messiah son of Mary," said bin Laden in a audiotape released last November. He was expanding on an earlier warning issued before the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks that the West had "divided the world into two regions — one of faith and another of infidelity, from which we hope God will protect us."

As two Semitic, monotheistic religions (the belief there is only one God) with shared roots, Islam and Christianity have interacted for centuries, and the relationship has had its ups and downs.If history has witnessed the Crusades, the fall of Constantinople, the ousting of the "Moors" from Spain and the Christian European colonialism that surged in the Age of Exploration, there have also been periods of confluence, when arrangements were made for Christian pilgrims to make their way to the Holy Land and scholars across religious divides were invited to debate at royal durbars, or courts.

But after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the United States, whatever spotty appeal the issue of Muslim-Christian ideological harmony had in academic and public discourse quickly faded as a more pugnacious debate pitting the Muslim and Christian worlds in a "civilizational" clash suddenly made it to the top of the charts. With readers and listeners seemingly eager to get to the bottom of the new problem of the times, Western experts posed variants of questions such as "What went wrong with the Muslim world?" and "Why do they hate us?"  By most accounts, answers to the question "Why do they hate us?" tended to yield polarized answers, with several Western scholars referring to some sort of clash of civilizations. On the other hand, many Muslim scholars tended to address the issue as a political one with the answers lying in a complex stew of the impact of U.S. foreign policy, imperialism, and the aftereffects of the Crusades.

In his seminal 1985 work, The Crusades Through Arab Eyes, Amin Maalouf argued that while the era of the Crusades led to a cultural and economic revolution in Western Europe, the terrors of the holy wars led the Muslim world to close in on itself, leading to "long centuries of decadence and obscurantism."Huntington, on the other hand, viewed the clash as a necessary conflict that occurs at what he calls a "civilizational fault line" or the "boundary where two or more civilizations meet." However, a careful look at this war that is currently being fought between Islam and Christianity will show that there is no hope to an end until this war leads to a full blown World War III between the Islamic nations and the non-Islamic nations. This War will be the war that leads to the end of civilization as we know it because nuclear weapons will fly over the skies and civilization as we know it will be pushed back to the stone age. This will be the apocalypse—the final holocaust.

THE GREAT PYRAMIDS WERE NOT BUILT BY THE EGYPTIANS!!

I know you have always thought that the massive ton structures out in Egypt were built by the Egyptians of old as  tombs for dead Pharaohs....well by after a careful assessment of todays article which I write after some careful observation and research, you will see that you have always been wrong!! I don't know for sure who built the Great Pyramids of Egypt but I know the ancient Egyptians did not have the technology or the competence to build such magnificent and awesome building because even modern science and technology still cannot build them! they may have been built by more a sophisticated and technologically advanced race of men (who are now extinct from the last ice age) or by Aliens from other planets...I'm just speculating but one thing is for sure---they were not built by the Egyptians. They Egyptians only met the Pyramids there. Ok....consider the following evidence:

Take a close look at the map above:
The pyramid is highlighted in red, and its two diagonals are extended beyond the end of the pyramid to the north-east and north-west.  The mass of squiggly lines above the pyramid is the Delta of the Nile River, and, as you can see the two diagonals encase the Nile neatly and entirely.  IS THAT A SUPPOSED TO BE A COINCIDENCE? what are the odds of such a coincidence?
Yes, the most plausible explanation is that the way the Egyptians could do this was to have someone walk hundreds of miles to the end of the delta and hold a really, really long piece of string while someone walked all the way back to the site of the pyramid.  Then,  those two people stood there while two more people repeated the process on the other side of the Pyramid.  Just so that they could build a big building in such a way that its diagonals lie on those two lines. NOW THAT IS POSSIBLE???

Here is what really happened: A couple of people, flew high enough over the earth to be able to see where the Nile Delta's origin is, easily saw what orientation the pyramid would need to be in order to have its diagonals  lie on those two lines.

Second piece of evidence:

The big dark shape on the upper left of this diagram is the great pyramid.  If you look at the compass rose in the bottom right, you can see that the pyramid is lined up exactly with the magnetic North Pole,  a difference of only 16 minutes, or some absurdly small number like that (there are 60 minutes in one degree).  COINCIDENCE?   How could the Egyptians possibly have built their pyramid facing the exact magnetic North Pole without even having a compass?  You should note that, a compass was not invented for a few thousand years after the ancient Egyptian civilization was long gone?  IS THAT LIKELY????
This is how it really worked:  Those ancient sophisticated people, abundant in their knowledge and drowning in technology, used compasses and found the actual magnetic north and south poles.  THEN THEY BUILT THE PYRAMIDS!

Now consider this as well:

The photograph above is of the Great Pyramid of Giza, and its neighbor, as seen from the Sphinx, on the evening of the summer solstice.  As you can see,  the sun is setting in the exact center of the two pyramids. COINCIDENCE??? For the Egyptians to be able to do this, they must have known the day of the summer solstice, and they therefore,  must have known the exact length of the year, or 365.25;  once again, you should consider that this is a fact not discovered until long after the Egyptian civilization was gone.   HOW POSSIBLE IS THAT???

The real story could have been thus:   Those meddling ancients, in all of their sophisticated and advanced wisdom, observed the earth from space via aircraft, and by calculating the size of its revolutions around the sun,  the velocity it was at which it travelled and the angle of its axis of rotation,  they were able to easily calculate the longest day of the year or the length of the year. THEN THEY BUILT THE PYRAMIDS!

Check the photo above:

This is a photograph taken on the day of the winter solstice from the entrance of the Great Pyramid.  The Big shape silhouetted in the middle of the photograph is the Sphinx.  Since this is only a photograph,  and not a movie,  you can't get the full effect.   But even in the photo, you can see that the sun is tracing around the Sphinx's head.  In actuality,  the sun rises exactly at the left side of the base of the Sphinx's head.   Then it traces it all the way around until it sets on the right side of the Sphinx's head.  COINCIDENCE???
Had the Egyptians done this,   since this occurs only on the day of the winter solstice,  they would have had to have known the exact length of a year.
IS THAT LIKELY??? It's those wise ancient people (or maybe aliens),  who after finding the length of the year,  found the shortest day of the year, and then built their Sphinx and Pyramid accordingly.

This above image is a diagram of the stars of the Belt of Orion.  Now look at the diagram of the pyramids below.

Though this fact is not as remarkable, the positioning of the three Pyramids of Giza are exactly aligned with the position of the three stars in the belt of Orion, both in position and in size.  While it is possible,  it would create many difficulties for the Egyptians in terms of measuring huge distances.  Not only this,  but in fact,  at the time that the pyramids were supposedly built (about 3000 BC), the stars that make up the Belt of Orion were not exactly at the correct angle to match up with the pyramids.   If the location of the stars is traced back over thousands of years,  the time at which the belt is exactly aligned with the pyramids is in fact 10,500 BC.  A time when there were supposedly no
civilized   humans living on the earth.  Another fact to support this is,  if you consider the Sphinx,  a lion with a human head and then look at the size of the body,  you can see that the body is perfectly proportioned for the head of a lion,  not the human head.   This human head  looks tiny and silly sitting on top of the body.  This is because the Sphinx was actually built in 10,500 BC,  around the same time as the pyramids,  with a real head of a lion.  Evidence to support this is that there are signs of water erosion all over the Sphinx.  The last time that there was any water nearby, aside from the Nile is around 10,000 BC.  Also,  the constellation of Leo the Lion (thus closely related to the Sphinx), was in fact rising directly behind the sun in 10,500 BC.

Are they saying that the Egyptians built their pyramids to be in the exact shape of Orion's Belt,  but purposely aligned them differently from what was actually in the sky?  That after they built the Sphinx, they purposely made the head look small and funny?  Then, they broke their backs carrying water from the Nile just so that they could put water erosion lines all over the body?????

In fact,  no Egyptian did it at all.  The ANCIENTS, with their plethora of wisdom,   in the year 10,500 BC built the Pyramids and the Sphinx.  They built it with a head of a lion to match the Belt of Orion, as well as the constellation of Leo.  Thousands of years later, Ramses, the egomaniacal dictator-pharaoh of Egypt,  decided that he didn't like having the head of a lion on top of the statue in his land.  So,  he had a head in his own likeness constructed instead.  But the Egyptians, not being very skilled at huge masonry, built the head somewhat too small.
Why is it that the great Pyramids of Giza,  built in 3,000, are perfect, and still standing as tall as the day they were built?  (Aside from the capstone and the polished stones, which were stripped by humans in the building of Cairo)  The other Pyramids, which were supposedly built about 500 years later, all have shoddy masonry, and are crumbling down.  An example of this is the famous 'bent' pyramid,  which  started out with the sides being built at one angle,  then suddenly shifts in the middle to a shallower angle.  This is because the angle at which it was started  was much too steep for it to stand when finished.   It is  because the Egyptian pharaohs saw the great pyramids standing on their land and decided that they wanted pyramids of their own.  But they found that it was much harder to do than was expected and ended up building silly looking structures that don't even come close to comparing with the magnitude of elegance emanating from the great pyramids.



Other startling evidence:
If you take the perimeter of the pyramid and divide it by two times the height,  you get a number that is exactly equivalent to the number pi (3.14159...) up to the fifteenth digit.  The chances of this phenomenon happening by sheer chance is remarkably small.  Did the ancient Egyptians know what the number pi was?  Not likely,  seeing as it was a number not calculated accurately to the fourth digit until the 6th century,  and the pyramids calculate it to the fifteenth.

What about the fact that even though the sides of the base of the pyramid are some 757 feet long,  it still forms an almost perfect square?  Every angle in the base is exactly 90 degrees.   In fact,  the sides have a difference in length of something like two centimeters, which is an incredibly small amount.

What about the fact that although the Egyptians kept very careful records about everything they ever did;  every king they had,  every war they fought,  and every structure they built, there were no records of them ever having built the pyramids?

What about the fact that the Egyptians had not even invented the wheel yet,  but the blocks that they had to carry to build the pyramids weighed about 2 tons each? 4,000 lbs.?  What did they do... use cement?   In fact, they used so much stone, that if you took all of the stone they used and cut it into 1 foot square blocks, it would extend 2/3 of the way around the earth!!!

If you take the line of longitude that the pyramid lies on and the latitude that the pyramid lies on,  31 degrees north by 31 degrees west (the fact that they are the same number is a coincidence???)  they are the two lines that cover the most combined land area in the world. In essence, the pyramid is the center of all of the land mass of the whole earth!!!!

How about the fact that a  group of modern scientists  attempted to build a pyramid out next to the real one using modern technologies, and after something like 100 days, succeeded in building one about 1/40 of the size of the real one????

Did you know that the height of the pyramid (481 feet) is almost exactly 1/1,000,000,000 of the distance from the earth to the sun (480.6 billion feet)?

What about all of that fungi that was found in King Tutu's chamber?   Fungi which has never before been seen on earth?
AFTER ALL THESE CONCLUSIVE AND COMPELLING EVIDENCE DO YOU STILL THINK THE PHARAOHS OR THE EGYPTIANS BUILT THE PYRAMIDS?

God is the universal constant (speed of light) in E=mc2

shoot!!!! EUREKA!!!!.....in deep thought about the metaphysics of the origin of time it has dawned on me that since according to the law of relativity (E=mc2) nothing can move faster than the speed of light and the speed of light is the universal constant for the interactions of space time, then GOD is obviously that constant...the constant that moves at that speed....God is the light as the bible always said...he is the electromagentism that holds the universe together...and according to the law of relativity, time is eternally existing with no beginning or ending....that means the constant that is God is eternal and is the source of matter as we know it...the eternal energy that condenses to form the matter of the universe (according to the law of relativity energy condenses to form matter and matter is broken down to release energy), to form all the energy we refer to as life, existent in all beings...God is the embodiment of the universe, he is the eternal constant that science seeks to reveal...so once again its obvious that religion and science are complimentary

What is the Illuminati? (An expose of the mysterious group)

"ILLUMINATI", the word itself is the cause of much discussion. Either a person is convinced of an Illuminati Plot to control the world, or they vehemently deny the existence altogether. Either side your opinion lies, discussion of The Illuminati can be fascinating.
Illuminati, the word itself is supposed to mean those who have become Spiritually Enlightened, or make claims to that affect. Even today there are those Intellectually Pretentious people who consider themselves to be part of an Elite Race of Wise Men.
There has always been people that believed that a Higher State of Awareness can be achieved through Meditation, linking oneself not only to God but to the very Universe itself. There are also warnings of the "left hand path" or trying to attain enlightenment simply for the power available on this path. Supposedly this path will provide paranormal abilities that can be used to obtain wealth and power. Those that study Kundalini Energy believe that the power rises from the base of the Spine Chakra and rises up to the Crown Chakra,enabling total enlightenment. It might be coincidence that the 33rd level of Freemasonry is the highest level that can be achieved in that Secret Society. There are also 33 vertebrae in the human body.

How Did They Begin?
History will show that the Illuminati is quite a real organization. It was founded by a Bavarian Professor of Law, a man named Adam Weishaupt. Even though Adam Weishaupt was born of Jewish Ancestors, his family converted to Catholicism. Mr Weishaupt was educated by the Jesuits. The Jesuits are an order with their own mystery. Adam Weishaupt joined the Freemasons, the Illuminati was a Secret Society within a Secret Society. Its members infiltrated Masonic Lodges and took over control of Lodges all over the world. They also infiltrated and controlled many Universities. The Order of the Illuminati was created on May 1st 1776, also known as Mayday which is a sacred holiday to the Pagan religion. It is also a major holiday to most modern communists. The year 1776 also has some note in history. it was the year that the American Declaration Of Independence was created. Is it a coincidence that many of the creators of the Declaration were themselves Masons?

Adam Weishaupt used the code name "Spartacus" (the gladiator who rose up against Rome). After WWI German communists called themselves "spartacists."
Weishaupt supported and fought for a revolution to overturn the current Social and Political systems currently in place. He was also a supporter of the end of all Religious orders.
He despised Judeo- Christian morals as well as the family unit and even wanted to dissolve the institution of marriage. He wanted to empower women by telling them they were being oppressed by men. His ultimate goal was the creation of a Global Government based on socialistic values. Most of his beliefs are now being enacted by modern day leftists.

What Did They Do?
There was a meeting of Masons and various other radicals in 1782, the conference was held in Wilhelmsbad in Germany. This was where Weishaupt enlisted German Royalty and French Masons, who were used to expand the order to France, inducting as many other Masons as possible. They proceeded in taking over the Grand Orient Lodge in Paris. They even infiltrated and took control of the Jacobin clubs.
They sought the inclusion of wealthy individuals and members of the aristocracy into the movement. Much like the billionaires and the intellectual leftists of today.
These were the same people who cultivated the French Revolution in 1789. Overthrowing a King who although being weak and ineffective was not what would be considered a tyrannical leader. The economy of France at this time was actually prosperous despite the recent wars that France had been involved.
The Duke of Orleans horded an enormous amount of food, to create a shortage. They used hired mercenaries (similar to the"rent a mobs of today") to induce the extremely bloody French Revolution. This Revolution did not coincide with other Revolutions. This Revolution did not start with the masses rising up, it consisted of a number of Elitists Factions which revolted from the top down.
The Revolutionaries agitated the Reign of Terror in which untold hundreds of thousands of people were killed. Many peasants, low income workers and members of the clergy were decimated. They were similar to the Leftists of today in that they were infatuated with Population Control. Even though France at that time was far from being overpopulated, there was only a fraction of people in France compared to the population of today. Robespierre encouraged the slaughter of roughly fifteen million people.
Similar to the Leftists of today The revolutionaries of France (like the Illuminati) despised Christianity. They did not support marriage or Christian morals. Torture, vampirism even the atrocity of cannibalism was commonplace with the Revolutionaries. They wanted to destroy any existing morality so that they could carry on with the reconstruction of society.

Any of this sound familiar?
In the mean time Charles Theodore, Prince-Elector, Count Palatine and Duke of Bavaria outlawed the Order of the Illuminati in 1785. This did not result in the destruction of the Order, but it did force it to continue its existence underground. The ultimate result of the French Revolution was the creation of a Fascist State, a sort of Dictatorship that was the first the world would see of this sort of Government. The ancient civilization of Sparta is similar to a Fascist Tyranny. Even Plato in his "Republic" described this sort of State, maybe inspired by Sparta. Every Communist Government has supported the end to Private Property and the redistribution of wealth, being beneficial to the State. In reality these Governments have been in reality a fascist entity. Having a small group of Elitists living in wealth and luxury by owning all the property of the Nation.
The people are left in poverty conditions and enslaved. Even Mass Murder and the destruction of the Population becomes a standard operating procedure for these kinds of Governments. Though history has labeled both Hitler and Mussolini as "Right Wing", the truth is both of these men created socialistic economies. Both were socialist by nature with the acronym for Nazi being National Socialist.
The Illuminati was in fact a historical reality. Even George Washington warned the People of America about them. This leaves us with a couple of Questions.

Does the Illuminati still exist in any form?
Did Weishaupt create a New Order or did he in fact just reguvinate an ancient evil that has existed for centuries.
What Happened To The Illuminati?
After the Order of the Illuminati was eliminated there sprung up in Germany and other places, Secret Societies that were pursuing the identical agenda as that of the Illuminati. One of Weishaupt's followers, the Baron von Knigge created the German Union book publishers in 1788.
In 1815 the "League of the Just" made an appearance. It was this League of the Just that recruited Karl Marx to author the Communist Manifesto. "The Order of Death" which appeared in Germany in the 1830's was a club for the Wealthy Elite. The symbol of this order was a "skull and Crossbones", which was a Masonic Symbol. The order quickly sought the recruitment of Wealthy Young American Students. These students brought the order to the United States, the United States Chapter 322 of the order is known as "Skull and Bones". There were many Elitists in America that belonged to this fraternity of brothers, many moved on to find careers in the intelligence agencies. Even some Presidents of the United States had their start belonging to this Secret Order. The Illuminati formed many "Democratic Societies" here in America. In Europe a radical Italian Order called the Carbonari existed among the Masons, Their leader was named Mazzini.

Freemasons
The Freemasons first appeared in Scotland and England late in the seventeenth century. They have always been a very secretive society using a pyramidal, hierarchical structure They engage in secret rituals, and seem to proficiently use magical and mysterious Symbols.
There were other Secret Societies that were founded in the United States and elsewhere. These groups could usually be found to be connected with the Masons. George Bickley's Knights of the Golden Circle, who promoted the idea of Southern secession which helped ignite the Civil War.
There are rumors that people involved in the Confederate Secret Service were members of the Knights of the Golden Circle. Rumour also has Jesse James and John Wilkes Booth as being members of these societies. The Knights of the Golden Circle became the Ku Klux Klan after the end of the Civil War.

Other Secret Societies
Throughout Europe during the late Nineteenth and into the early Twentieth century many occult societies made appearances. The Theosophical Society which was founded in 1875 in New York City by Helena Blavatsky. The purpose of this society was the investigation, the practice and the study of mediumistic phenomena. In both Germany and Austria, the Order of the New Templars was created. the connection of this society with the Freemasons will be discussed later in the article.
There was a German Order called the ONT, which had its name changed to the Thule Society. It was this Society which created the Nazi Party. This was the party responsible for elevating Adolf Hitler to be its leader.
Alice Bailey, who was from England and a member of the Theosophist Society openly discussed her hatred of Jews. She was also quite vocal in her support for Hitler, Mussolini, and Napoleon. She taught that God was a tyrant, and that she worshipped the fallen angel named Lucifer. Once she moved to the United States she formed the Lucis Trust (Lucifer=Lucis), which supported the idea of a one world government.
This Society and those like it boasted of members such as Henry Kissinger, It also had a part in designing and maintaining the freakish Meditation Room at the United Nations Headquarters. The room contains an enormous monolith of magnetic ore, very similar to other magnetized monoliths like the one resting atop the ancient pyramid at Tiahuanaco in Bolivia.
Then you have famous Americans such as Albert Pike, who was a very well known nineteenth century Mason and a worshipper of Lucifer. There is another very mysterious club located north of San Francisco. The Bohemian Grove in Sonoma County is a place where strange rituals are performed. These rituals are performed around a forty foot stone owl called Moloch. On the door of the Bohemian Club building in San Francisco is a symbol of an owl, a crescent moon and the saying "weaving spiders, come not here."
Many famous Americans from different secret societies take part in these rituals. There are also very powerful secret political organizations, like the Council of Foreign Relations which is a secret government controlling the United States along with the Trilateral Commission and the Bilderberg Group.

Are All Secret Societies Part Of The Illuminati?
There are many Secret Societies in the world today. Are all these groups in the same belief as the Order Of the Illuminati espoused by Adam Weishaupt ? Are they branches of the original Order Of the Illuminati?
Nineteenth Century British Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli claimed that there was a Secret Group Of Men who had control over the Political Parties. Even the American President Woodrow Wilson made reference to just such a group of powerful orginizations even to the point of saying that it was dangerous to criticize them at all. Winston Churchill not only made the claim that the Illuminati existed in the 1920's, he also claimed that they were the force behind Marxism.
Could it be possible that the Illuminati existed in ancient times? Could they have existed in prehistoric Atlantean Times? Did they exist long before Weishaupt founded the Illuminati.
In ancient Greece and Rome there were Priesthoods of Mystery Religions that would be considered Secret Societies. These religions had hierarchical leadership and rites of initiation. In the 12th century there was a Secret Order among the Crusaders. They were called the Hospitallers. The Hospitallers still exist today, they are known as the Knights of Malta and they belong to the Catholic Church.
There were other Crusaders who formed the Templars, actually the Templars were formed by nine French Knights. The Templars used many of the same symbols as the Hospitallers. The Templars gained control over the Fiat Money System allowing them to accumulate enormous wealth and power. The French King Philippe the Fair outlawed the Templars and ordered their destruction. The Templars escaped on their fleet of ships with their treasure and completely escaped capture, never to be found.
Many of the Templars joined the Knights of Malta, the ones who escaped to Spain and Portugal changed the name of their Order to the "Knights of Christ."
Robert the Bruce of Scotland can give credit to his victory over the English to a secret group of knights who mysteriously appeared on the battlefield. It was later in Scotland that the Order Of The Masons appeared. Even today these Masons claim to be descended from the Templars.
Even though there is definitive proof of the existence of the Illuminati in history there is no proof that they are active today. When the history is studied though there is compelling evidence to prove that not only did they exist but that they are still quite active today.

Reflections on the Divergence of Science and Religion on the ‘God-being’

 It is another Sunday and people have gone to church...i didn’t go but as I usually do when in solitude, I meditated upon the essence of my subliminal existence in the mysterious expanse of the cosmos. What keeps striking me is the disparity between the accounts of science and those of my Christian religion concerning the origins of the universe. I’m a learned individual and also intrinsically religious albeit spiritual in my disposition and perspectives. This thus creates an enigmatic conflict in comprehending or seeking explanations to my existence as a man. However, today while engrossed in retrospection, I came upon an impromptu resolution of the divergence between science and religion. This has been my 'holy grail' in my quest to resolve this philosophical paradox akin to Einstein’s quest to find a solution for the Unified Field Theory. I was so excited when it dawned upon me that science and religion are one and the same and none of both are exclusive of one another. Eureka!!
       Now let me elucidate my resolution for the accounts of science and religion concerning the beginning of the universe.  In the biblical account of Genesis 1, it says "in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth". That statement implies that God was in existence before the creation of the earth....hmmmm. Now a look at the scientific perspective shows that the universe came to existence in the BIG BANG and that the universe was once extremely compact, dense, and hot. Some original event, a cosmic explosion called the big bang, occurred about 13.7 billion years ago, and the universe has since been expanding and cooling. Thus both accounts never tell about the true origin of God or the origin of the particles that sparked the Big Bang. This therefore creates a void for us.
        However, scientists also allude to the existence of a hypothetical fundamental particle known as the "higgs boson" which collided to form the matter of the Universe. This matter is referred to as the "God particle". This particle is thus what led to the beginning of the universe. When I thought about the God Particle, my mind lit up because I now came to the hypothetical conclusion that the God particle is what Christianity refers to in John chapter 1 as the "WORD". In John 1:1-5 it reads "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind". Thus if the God particle was the Word and the Word was God then we now have a resolution as to who or what led to the beginning of existence God. Thus we see that science and religion say the same thing via the use of different perspectives.
       Interestingly, science explains that the God particle interacts on the subliminal level of matter and dark matter. This is in parallel to the explanation of the bible that God is constantly interacting with the universe.  A look at this science-religion convergence is seen in the account of creation where Genesis 1 says the earth was created in 7 days while science maintains that the earth and its inherent life evolved over millions of years. Nevertheless, these two accounts are one and the same since the book of Isaiah 55:8 says “my thoughts are not your thoughts and my ways are not your ways” and Psalm 90:4 says “ in your sight a thousand years are like a day”. This implies that those millions of years could be like 7 days to God and interestingly, the book of genesis was written from the revelation of a superior being not from the account of a mortal man. So once more you see that science and religion say the same thing and acquire verification from each other.
        On a concluding note, I would like to state that the supreme question still lingers as to the origin of the God Particle or God which I shall now term the "God-being" as a resolution of both accounts. This shall now become the fundamental question for science and religion but it is my opinion that God delineated the obligations of religion and science for the rational comprehension of man. Religion is the conduit for the revelations of God while science is the apparatus for explaining or decoding this revelation for practical application based on the command of Genesis 1:28 that man should conquer and subdue the universe.  Science is constantly learning and I am sure a time shall come when the origins of the God-being shall be explained.
