Secrets: Part One
Continuing my quest to investigate secret societies around the world, I wanted to give a quick overview of the “big boys” of these mysterious groups that are so widely reported to be “controlling” the world. So, who exactly are these men and how are they controlling the world anyway? As a primer, I’d like to introduce you to some of the biggies of the world of secret societies. I will investigate these groups individually in future blogs, but for now, let’s meet the major players.
Freemasonry: Okay, so I’ve already discussed the Freemasons, but here’s a quick overview for starters. The Freemasons are a fraternal organization that started in England in the 14th century. They have a long history of secret meetings, symbols, and an almost mythical reputation of being the secret hand that guides history and the direction of the world. In the U.S., the Freemasons have often been connected to the drafting of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution by laying the foundation of the United States based on Freemasonry beliefs. Their symbols exist throughout history, most remarkably on the back of the one dollar bill where the symbol of the “all seeing eye” and other Freemason connections have been found.
Bilderberg Group: This highly exclusive group of approximately 130 “businessmen” meets annually to discuss political, financial, and world issues at a highly secretive meeting. Named for after the Hotel de Bilderberg in the Netherlands, where the first meeting was held in 1954, the Bilderberg Group continues to meet annually for undisclosed reasons. Donald Rumsfeld, Henry Kissinger, Bill Clinton, Tony Blair, Margaret Thatcher, and Paul Wolfowitz (World Bank President) have all been members of the group. While many people believe the group is just a meeting of world leaders for the betterment of society, others feel that their purpose is much more sinister in nature. Many people believe that the group is responsible for many political assassinations, including that of John F. Kennedy.
Skull and Bones: Yale University is the home of this secret college fraternity. It was started in the early 1800s and is said to initiate only the upper echelons of society into its fold. Allowing only 15 new members per year, the inductees are thought to undergo a secretive and humiliating hazing process, followed by a vow of secrecy. Members of the Skull and Bones include both George W. Bush and John Kerry.
The Illuminati: This name specifically refers to a secret group of “enlightened” men in Bavaria in the 18th century, however it is more commonly used today to refer to other groups which may or may not form the alleged New World Order. This group is thought to control all the world’s governments and is single-handedly guiding us all towards a totalitarian world government.
So, now that you know some of the major players, I will follow up with more extensive information on these groups to further help us all understand what these men are all doing in their secret little clubs. Is it all just a bunch of rich and powerful men getting together over some beers to chat about sports, chicks, and politics, or is there really something to the conspiracy theories that seem to follow these mysterious groups wherever they go? After previously posting information about The Bohemian Club, I’m not too sure what the answer might be. The best kept secret is usually one that is right under your nose.

I look forward to reading your future posts on this subject Zoe. It is one area I usually find hard to divulge information from as the facts are construed all over the place.

Wow, Zoe, more great stuff. I find it interesting that the Bilderberg Group began in the Netherlands (right near the now non-existent nation of Bohemia) around the time of that country’s demise - hmmm - a prototype for the world?

Thanks guys! It’s been very interesting finding out more about these mysterious groups. I’m totally obsessed with it! It is difficult to distinguish between the wheat and the chaff, so I try to remain in the middle as much as possible. It is hard to not be influenced by the many interesting and secretive things these groups seem to be involved in.
An interesting point MamaSaid. I will have to look into that a bit further.
The search continues!

They are not that mysterious if you just adopt a curiouse nature.
I recently downloaded Firefox/Mozilla and was initially impressed by the idea untill it all started sounding too too good. So I asked the question we should all ask Who’s behind it all?.
In my seaching I found this:

Have a look all you internet hounds and beware. the internet is not as safe as we are led to believe.
Do your research and you will find that AOLWarner are major players-don’t believe me -read Nexus and find out for yourselves.
