Here's a link, PainRack. The site also has a link to The Skeptics Dictionary with an article on the Illuminati. Hope it helps.

That's nice. Go drink yourself into a stupor with a bunch of guys who wear fezes and wake up with an Ancient Scottish Rite that you don't own.

I prefer the 23 hour circlejerks in the cavernous temple underneath the center of the Washington DC pentagram.

You know...... I still not getting any real info on how people can believe such a brotherhood can exert such a malovent influence on society. The Freemasons, yeah, I can grub that, but the Illuminati? I mean, other than a so called "infiltration" of the Freemasons, is there anything in their history that might even suggest such enduring power in conspiracy theories?

No. And that just shows how good they are. Or to quote Hitchcock: "Of course the perfect crime has been commited. Otherwise we would know about it."
The optimist thinks, that we live in the best of all possible worlds and the pessimist is afraid, that this is true.

I recall that there was a novel based on this idea of such a massive, secret conspiracy controlling the world. I think the author just wrote it as ye-oldie fiction, but the idea was taken seriously.

Because the original Bavarian Illuminati was spreading liberal ideas all around, trying to influence politics, and the paranoid, ossified monarchs and aristocrats actually thought these people must be supported by some outside force. That, or at least their propaganda said so. The Freemasons were secretive, anti-Catholic, liberal, and everywhere. Shazam! Obvious conspiracy against the world's governments! The illuminati are in cahoots with the Luciferian Masonics! And look! Their symbol is on the money of this new, liberal superpower! IT'S A TRAP!
