Sample text

A religious man is a depraved animal;. "12 By intrigue, Clootz was able to get himself made a Representative of the Nation, and became a major influence in getting the government to sanction the antireligious movement. Everywhere in France an orgy of blasphemy and desecration began. " This was a cherished maxim of the Illuminati and, of course, an official denial of the Resurrection. Not content with destroying the body, the regenerators of France set out to destroy the soul. 48 The French Revolution Commenting upon the attack against religion and morality during the French Revolution, John Robison stated: ...

26 The Illuminati Using the methods of earlier secret societies, Weishaupt, through his organizing ability, was able to make the Illuminati one of the most effective instruments of evil that has ever been uncovered. Using the philosophy that "the end justifies the means," his methods became a model for world revolution. Eventually, the Order became suspect by the government of Bavaria, resulting in an investigation by a Bavarian Court of Inquiry in 1783. An event that led to exposure of the subversive nature of the Order was the untimely death of one of its members, an evangelist preacher named Lanze, who, while on a mission to Silesia, was struck down by lightning.

Four of the prisoners were forgers, two were lunatics, and one was a man who had been incarcerated at the request of his own family. The King had already planned to tear down the ancient prison, but this was something his enemies could not afford him the honor of doing. An area also not overlooked by the revolutionaries was the corrupting of the military, whether by bribery, the use of prostitutes, or outright murder.
