Religion and The Movement:
One of the objects of The Movement is to bring about a religious reformation and renaissance, to escape from the religions of control, tyranny, fear and power to those of self-expression, creativity, liberation, diversity and enlightenment. First and foremost we mean a religion of psychological well-being that can be shaped by each and every person in their own image i.e. in terms of what makes sense to them and what they enjoy. They can turn to religions of the past (as the often Illuminati do), or devise their own new religions. It doesn’t actually matter what “outer form” religion takes so long as it prepares the person to seek the truth. Anyone who demands that you follow rules, regulations and commandments, who demands that you wear certain clothes, eat certain foods, pray five times a day, perform certain religious tasks each week, do nothing on the Sabbath etc, is a false prophet working for the Demiurge. Let no one control you. Each person should approach the True God in their own way. There is no prescribed way of seeking God, no holy book cast in stone, no prophet whom everyone must obey. Reject them all. Religion is yours, not theirs. You are in control of it, not them. And once you have freed yourself of the control of others then your mind will be free to turn to God and to comprehend his true nature.
The religion of absolute truth is the religion that succeeds the religion of psychological well-being. You cannot find the former until you have achieved the latter. Can you make a contribution? If you were starting a new religion tomorrow, what message would you want the world to hear? The quotations from the Gospels that are often cited as inspirational are universal principles. They are not the property of Christianity. All religions, even those controlled by the Demiurge, have good things to say. The important task is to filter out and refine the good and reject the bad.
Wouldn’t the world be a much healthier place if each and every person had their own religion, based on the collective wisdom of all the world’s religions, ancient and modern?
The First Commandment is this: Let no one give you any Commandments. It is for you to create your own. If you are a good and decent person you will come up with good and decent rules by which to live your life.

The Thermodynamics of Hell.
The Movement needs to make effective use of viral campaigns to spread the word. Could you produce something as clever as the item shown below (which is allegedly the answer provided by a student at the University of Washington to an unusual thermodynamics question in a Chemistry mid-term exam)?
Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)?
Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle’s Law (gas cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some variant. One student, however, wrote the following:
“First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave.
“Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for how many souls are entering Hell, let’s look at the different religions that exist in the world today. Most of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell.
“With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle’s Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added.
“This gives two possibilities: 1) If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose. 2) If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.
“So which is it?
“If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year that, “…it will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you,” and take into account the fact that I still have not succeeded in having an affair with her, then #2 above cannot be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and will not freeze over.”
This student received the only “A”.
We applaud him.

M Rising:
The Zeitgeist, Zeitgeist Addendum and Zeitgeist Moving Forward info-films have been viewed by tens of millions of people online all across the globe, yet have you ever heard of these films being discussed by mainstream newspapers, TV programmes or politicians? Judging by the reaction of the media and cultural commentators, it’s as though these films never existed. A massive audience is being completely ignored. Why? Because the Zeitgeist films advocate a new society. They advocate taking power from those who currently have it and giving it to the people. They advocate a New World Order where the people will be in charge. And who amongst the Power Elite would ever want to give any encouragement to that message? The upper echelons of society try to operate a closed shop. They don’t want to give time and space to dangerous ideas that threaten their hegemony.
They’re all in together. It’s so internalised in their behaviour they don’t need to sit together and conspire. All of those who have positions of influence in society know exactly what is expected of them, and one of those things is never to give publicity to revolutionary movements, unless it’s to condemn them and call for action to be taken against them.
But luckily something new and radical has emerged triumphantly on the world scene. The internet offers a unique chance to change the world. The traditional outlets for news and information can be bypassed and the “gatekeepers” ignored. Tunnels can be dug beneath them, bridges built over them, new gates constructed to public awareness. An enormous change is coming and the Power Elite just don’t get it. Their power is ebbing away. It will take a number of years, of course, but nevertheless the process is now underway. And the speed is increasing.
The OWO have been the masters of something called “cultural capital”: the means for controlling the debate, for deciding what the values of society should be. Every time you watch the news or listen to a politician or go to the movies or buy a mainstream book or see advertisements, you are being exposed to the agenda of the masters, the message they want to get across, the shape of society that they wish you to acknowledge (always in their favour and always hostile to your interests). They impose their cultural values on you. They start when you go school (they choose the curriculum you will follow, designed to endorse them), and they reinforce it in all of the institutions of society. They tell you how wonderful “freedom”, “democracy”, “free markets” and capitalism are. They tell you to worship celebrities, admire bankers, applaud the super-rich, support the politicians they foist on you. You don’t get to debate their values, to challenge them. They shut down all dissent by simply never giving it any oxygen of publicity.
In the past, this was brutally effective. But now the internet allows a direct challenge to the cultural capital of the Power Elite. The 9/11 Truth Movement, Conspiracy Theorists in general, activists such as those associated with Zeitgeist, have all steadily eroded confidence in the establishment. It doesn’t matter that these people might be wrong and spreading crazy ideas in some instances. The important point is that they are no longer accepting the “sacred” word of the Power Elite. This erosion of the respect normally afforded to those in power, this increase in cynicism and skepticism, this ever widening gulf between Wall Street and Main Street, will grow and accelerate. The old order is collapsing.
We can start preparing the funeral rites of the Old World Order. No one will miss them. They reached the zenith of their power just before the Credit Crunch brought their house of cards tumbling down. They called themselves “masters of the universe”. They said they were experts deserving of mind-boggling financial rewards. They said they had eliminated risk. The said the world was safe in their hands.
They will never be trusted again. Their credibility has been permanently destroyed. Like the Emperor in his new “clothes”, theyare exposed naked before the world. They are fools, charlatans, conmen, pretenders to knowledge, money-obsessed maniacs, pigs with their snouts permanently in the money trough. They are the veritable scum of the earth. No one could have been more dangerous to the stability and health of the world than these maniacs. They are like the Riders of the Apocalypse. War, famine, pestilence, poverty, chaos, death and hell follow in their wake. They are the Demiurge’s Chosen Ones. Their world crawls with greed and corruption, with profiteers, carpetbaggers and robber barons. These vampires suck the planet’s blood dry. To further their own interests they’d damn the whole world.
Why wasn’t the type of message shown in the Zeitgeist movies preached as far back as the Wall Street Crash in 1929? Only because it was deliberately suppressed by the authorities. But now the internet has freed the truth. Liberation is coming and it will be delivered through cyberspace. Dissenting voices are arising everywhere. “Heresy” is rife. It’s only a matter of time before an online movement generates enough support to pose a full-scale challenge to the Power Elite.
The content of this website would never have been possible under the pre-internet ruling regime. It’s a threat to them, so they would never have allowed the message to be heard. But it is being heard now. All over the world, new voices are coming to the fore. The authorities can’t stop them. At the moment, they’re trying to ignore them, but they won’t go away. Each voice might be tiny and almost inaudible, but put them all together and they become a mighty roar that can blow down empires. The Zeitgeist movies have struck a great blow for freedom. A breach has been made in the fortress of the Power Elite. Now the people have a chance to direct additional fire at the breach, to widen it, consolidate the gap and pour through in their millions.
Perhaps it will be The Movement that leads the assault on the Power Elite’s stronghold. The Movement might be the heroic vanguard that smashes through the last desperate defences. Make no mistake, the Power Elite are tottering. Join the resistance, join the Movement. Make your voice count. Bring the world out of bondage and servitude into the bright light of a new gold dawn, a New World Order.
It’s time to smash the towers of Babylon, to seize their banners and cast them down, to wreck every glittering citadel built by money stolen from the people.

The Defenders of The Indefensible:
Who will defend the Power Elite? We know the answer to that – the soldiers and police, the Old World Order’s armed wing, their enforcers, their paid thugs. It’s extraordinary that people think that soldiers are “nice” people. Soldiers are trained, professional, legalised killers. Most of them are poorly educated with sadistic tendencies. You think Abu Ghraib was an aberration? That’s par for the course. Their job is to obey the will of their masters. They don’t care who they attack. Once they have their orders, they’ll obey them to the letter.
So why are “homecoming” parades held for them? Why do towns and cities come to a halt to celebrate the return of those who have been engaged in wars in foreign countries where no one wants them and where they’ve killed many unarmed, innocent citizens? The soldiers aren’t protecting us; they’re endangering us. Revenge attacks are inevitable. 9/11 was nothing to do with the American government mounting a false flag attack. Why do so many Americans seem incapable of understanding that America is the most hated nation on earth because of its foreign policy, particularly its unswerving support for Zionist Israel? America made itself a target and Muslims seized their opportunity by mounting a low-tech attack involving hi-jacked airplanes. The only new, and stunning, ingredient compared with the regular airplane hijackings of the 1970 and 80s was the suicide angle. Why is it so hard to understand that some Muslims wanted to strike back at a superpower that had treated them with so much contempt for so long?
“God damn America!” said Reverend Wright, and many people all over the world nodded their heads. It must be emphasized that there’s no hatred of the ordinary American people who are innocent victims like everyone else; just for the rulers of America.
We’re told that soldiers are fighting for “us” (no they’re not – they’re fighting for their generals and political and economic masters) that they’re sacrificing their lives on our behalf (as though they were martyrs rather than people fully prepared to kill as many of the enemy as possible), that they’re “heroes” (really?). Even the ones who are riding along a road in an armoured vehicle and suddenly get blown up by an improvised explosive device are heroes – but what did they do that was heroic? The amount of propaganda that is expended on glorifying soldiers and war is nauseating, but of course it’s very much in the interest of those who send them to war in the first place.
Soldiers should be respected only when they are resisting aggressive, imperialist armies seeking to conquer for military glory and economic riches. In Iraq, the “coalition” army was the aggressor, acting without United Nations approval. It was a war fought by rogue leaders (Bush and Blair), who ought to be prosecuted for launching a war of aggression to help Zionist interests in the region and to take control of oil. In Afghanistan, the Taliban are more “heroic” than the NATO coalition. Afghanistan is their country. Let them get on with it. The “Truth Movement” is diverting attention away from the real conspiracy – between Zionism and Freemasonry that is the beating heart of American foreign policy. Zionists and Masons control Wall Street, the sacred cow of the American economy. The Old World Order comprises mostly Zionists and Freemasons.
9/11 happened because Osama bin Laden wanted to strike a blow against the American-Zionist axis of evil, as he sees it. The American and Zionist leaderships and intelligence services knew that such an attack was coming and made no serious attempt to stop it for strategic reasons, but they certainly weren’t the perpetrators of the attack. To be sure, it suited their foreign policy aims perfectly by giving them a pretext to intervene in the Middle East, but there was no “false flag” covert operation. Such an operation would have been entirely unnecessary, unbelievably high risk, and would have brought down the entire Old World Order if any genuine evidence of such a plot were uncovered. Someone, somewhere would definitely have talked. Such an operation would have been too big to contain. Far better to provoke the Muslims, wait for them to attack and then use that as the pretext for war. And that’s exactly what happened.
There is nothing mysterious about 9/11. America, tragically for the innocent victims, paid the price for its leaders’ needless and counterproductive pro-Zionist foreign policy. And now Muslims have paid the price for belonging to the same religion as Osama bin Laden since they’ve been forced to endure lethal retaliation from the West, with hundreds of thousands of dead in Iraq and Afghanistan. And things just keep getting worse for the West and Islam alike.
The “terror threat” rises in direct correlation to the extent to which the War on Terror is waged. Islam must avenge every atrocity committed by the West. The West must avenge every Islamic attack. And so both sides are locked into an eternal dance of hate and death. The Demiurge smiles. The only other people smiling are the military industrial complex, all of those who win vastly lucrative contracts connected with war. Peace is the last thing they want or care about. It’s bad for business.
Armies need wars. Manufacturers of guns, tanks, bombers, fighters, battleships, submarines, aircraft carriers, helicopter gunships, drones, missiles, military hardware and software of every conceivable type need wars. It’s a multi-billionaire dollar business rife with bribery and corruption. (BAE, a British weapons manufacturer, supplied an expensive but outdated and useless military air traffic control system to poverty-stricken Tanzania even though Tanzania has no military airforce. Huge bribes were paid to the officials sanctioning the deal.) Tens of thousands of jobs depend on the arms industry. Intelligence agencies need people to spy on. Governments need enemies so that they can rally the people. (There’s nothing like war to bring out patriotism and loyalty to the flag.)
American democracy is a joke. It’s astonishing that so many Americans take it seriously. Obama was the last hope of the democratic illusion and now it’s plain to see that he will never be the agent of change that he promised to be. Even if he wanted to be, those really in charge would never permit it. Every thinking American should boycott elections. If the candidates who run for President got zero votes and the democratic system were consequently completely discredited then the world would change overnight.
When were the American people asked if they wanted to be tied to Zionism? When were they asked if they wanted to go to war? When were they asked if they wanted Wall Street to do whatever it wanted without restraint or regulation? In every matter that counts, the people are never consulted. That’s the whole point of “democracy”: to pretend that the people can have influence but to prevent them actually having a say in anything important. In an American election, the people delegate their voice to the President and Congress, but neither the President nor Congress gives a damn about the people. Look at how much hope swept the world when Obama became President. At last, it seemed, the mould was broken. A complete outsider had come to power. A black man who apparently owed nothing to the vested interests of rich white folk had made it to the top. A year on, what has changed? All the hope has gone. But how could anyone have seriously believed that Obama would change anything anyway?
As Zeitgeist Addendum pointed out, change is not the purpose of politics. It’s there to perpetuate existing institutions, to maintain the power of the powerful. The President is the puppet of rich lobbyists. Every politician is bought and paid for by the big corporations and pressure groups. You can’t run for President unless you have immense funding – hundreds of millions of dollars – and who provides the money? The corporations, the pressure groups, the super rich. And they want value for money. They want pay back. They want a receipt. And now you’re in their pocket and you’re never getting out.
You want authentic change, a new society? Then you have to turn to people who are not in hawk to the establishment.
How can American voters believe that any President will save them? Many American blacks thought a new world was about to open for them at long last. Did it? You must be joking. The establishment hasn’t changed one iota. And it’s precisely because they are so resistant to conceding any ground to the people that they will eventually be destroyed. The destruction will originate in the one global network they can’t control – the internet.
The internet cannot be underestimated. It is an embryonic global brain, a collective consciousness, a Mass Mind. It can express the General Will of the people. It is a whole new evolutionary step up for humanity. It will render the Power Elite ineffectual because it can completely bypass them and make them marginal.
The people’s salvation lies in their being able to communicate without interference from the establishment. The people can decide for themselves how the world should be run. They don’t need intermediaries. They don’t need people who say one thing and do another, people who promise “change” then change nothing, Messiahs who don’t save anyone. People all over the world can get together on the internet. All the ruling regimes can be circumvented.
When their empire starts crumbling, the Power Elite will do what they always do: use force to save their skin. Don’t be under any illusions. Soldiers will turn their guns on you if they’re ordered to. In Northern Ireland in 1972, fourteen unarmed Civil Rights protestors were shot dead by British paratroopers during a civil rights march. The paratroopers went berserk and began firing indiscriminately into the crowd. At an enquiry afterwards, they lied through their teeth and claimed they were being fired on, but there wasn’t a single shred of evidence that they had been. They cynically and criminally tried to plant incriminating evidence on some of the corpses.
The first enquiry into the massacre, led by an English Lord, fully exonerated them. The leaders of the operation were awarded honours and medals by the Queen, and promoted. In the aftermath, the number of young men joining the Irish Republican Army in order to fight back against the British soared and Northern Ireland was condemned to decades of savage violence.
Many years later, the guilty conscience of some of the paratroopers began to emerge and a few courageous ones started to say what had really happened. They confessed that many of their colleagues had gone on a “rampage” and were “completely out of control”. Look at the Americans in Vietnam. Same story. In 1968, at My Lai, US soldiers massacred over 500 unarmed Vietnamese villagers, mostly women and children. Several massacres have also taken place in Iraq and Afghanistan.
So, again we ask, why do people welcome home soldiers? They aren’t your friends. They’re not defending you. They are the armed wing of the establishment, the bully boys and killers who enforce the will of the super-rich. Police are no better. They are there, first and foremost, to protect the lives and property of the super-rich and to lock up or shoot anyone who threatens the laws of the rich.
Never forget – the army and the police are not on your side. They are your enemies. They are power of the Old World Order expressed in guns and official uniforms.

V For Vendetta:
In this movie, Britain is under the rule of a brutal dictatorship. The resistance hero “V” wears a mask of Guy Fawkes, the man who attempted to blow up the English Parliament in the so-called Gunpowder Plot of 1605. At the end of the film, thousands of ordinary people march on Parliament wearing the same mask to show their solidarity and to signify that the people will no longer tolerate the dictatorship and are willing to fight to overthrow it. Evey, V’s companion, says at the end of the film that he was “all of us.” Great, inspirational figures enter mythology and it’s their mythic character that keeps the world entranced and beguiled. Jesus Christ’s myth is what sustains him, not the real life he led. St Paul virtually never mentioned Jesus as a real, living person; he was only interested in Jesus as a supposed deity. Myths can and do change the world. People need them. Superheroes trade on that same need. So, if you were to invent a fictional biography for a mythical founder of the Movement, what would you say? How could you inspire millions? Could you create a mythical figurehead for The Movement who embodies everything that is noble about humanity?
The Movement needs a face, a mythos that can live in history. A mask should be chosen to symbolize the face of the Movement. It might be a plain mask of the sort used by actors in Ancient Greek tragedies. It might be the face of a particular resistance hero from history. It might be abstract art. Let the Movement decide what is most suitable. The chosen mask could then be used in a campaign similar to this one: http://www.thisman.org/
Thomas Paine’s pamphlets played a critical role in rousing the people in the American Revolution. Can you write pamphlets? Can you drop “information bombs”?
The Movement should have a flag. The “M” logo would make a fine flag.
To use the jargon of the advertising industry, the Movement needs to become a “brand”, recognized everywhere. We have to beat the establishment at their own game, turn their own weapons against them. The idea is to give the Movement a clear, unmistakable identity that will increasingly enter into public consciousness.
What is needed is a spellbinding meme, an inspiring viral message that will criss-cross the world. Somewhere out there are people with the creativity to do it. Can you help?

Flash Mobs:
“Flashmobbing” involves random groups of people turning up at a pre-scheduled event, carrying out an action, such as all sitting down at the same time, or all shouting something, and then dispersing rapidly. Although fun, it serves no real function.
We advocate targeted, political flashmobbing. Imagine that several hundred people turned up at an event and all of them suddenly put on identical masks depicting the chosen face of the Movement, or all waved the flag of the Movement. Or all suddenly started playing Pho’s anthem for the Movement. One day in the future that will happen.

The Money Racket:
In The Last Bling King, activists of the “League for the Liberation of Nobodies” follow rich celebrities wherever they go and stand behind them in silence holding placards bearing simple messages such as the following:
1) For a fashion model: “I get paid a million dollars for wearing clothes.”
2) For a Hollywood actor: “I get paid ten million dollars for pretending to be someone else.”
3) For a soccer player: “I get paid ten million dollars for kicking a ball around a field.”
4) For a newsreader: “I get paid a million dollars for reading an autocue.”
5) For a preacher: “You don’t need me if you don’t feel sinful. So I will make you feel sinful.”
6) For a Wall Street trader: “I get a ten million dollar bonus for taking wild risks with other people’s money. If they lose it all, I lose nothing.”
7) For a banking CEO: “I get paid one hundred million dollars for creating debt. The more debt I create, the more my bank gets paid in interest. I want to put the whole world in debt.”
8) For a media agent: “I get paid five million dollars by placing myself between a client and an employer and answering the phone to both parties.”
9) For a “tabloid” newspaper boss: “I get five million dollars for satisfying people’s curiosity about what other people get up to in the bedroom.”
10) For a politician: “The more I do for rich lobbyists, the more money they pay me.”
Can you think of others?

The Money Assassins:
In Zeitgeist Addendum, “Economic Hitman” John Perkins said: “We economic hit men really have been the ones responsible for creating this first truly global empire and we work in many different ways. But perhaps the most common is that we will identify a country that has resources our corporations covet, like oil, and then arrange a huge loan to that country from the World Bank or one of its sister organizations. But the money never actually goes to the country. Instead it goes to our big corporations to build infrastructure projects in that country. Power plants, industrial parks, ports…things that benefit a few rich people in that country in addition to our corporations, but really don’t help a majority of the people at all. However, the whole country is left holding a huge debt. “It’s such a big debt they can’t repay it, and that’s part of the plan, that they can’t repay it. And so at some point we economic hit men go back to them and say ‘Listen, you owe us a lot of money. You can’t pay your debts, so sell your oil real cheap to our oil companies, allow us to build a military base in your country, or send troops in support of ours to someplace in the world like Iraq, or vote with us on the next U.N. vote.’ They have to have their electric utility company privatised and their water and sewage system privatised and sold to US corporations or other multinational corporations.
“So there was a whole mushrooming thing, and it’s so typical of the way the IMF and the World Bank work. They put a country in debt, and it’s such a big debt it can’t pay it, and then you offer to refinance the debt and get it to pay even more interest. And you demand this quid pro quo which you call ‘conditionality’ or ‘good governance’ which means basically that they’ve got to sell off their resources, including many of their social services, their utility companies, their school systems sometimes, their penal systems, their insurance systems, to foreign corporations. So it’s a double, triple, quadruple whammie!” But the economic hitmen aren’t just taking contracts out on nations, they have us in their sights too. Just as they give big loans to countries to saddle them with debts, they give big loans to ordinary men and women too. They give them massive mortgages to pay off, and cards loaded with credit (aka debt). Soon enough, you’re a slave of the system, with no prospect of escape. You have to keep on the treadmill, you have to scamper forwards with the other rats in the rat race, you have to keep your nose clean, or rather extremely dirty with all that brown-nosing you’re having to do. You can’t afford to aggravate your employer. You’re locked into the system. You’re terrified of losing your job because then you won’t be able to pay your debts. The economic hitman’s silencer is pointing at you right between the eyes.
The Old World Order use the use the same tactics on the big and the small scale. Whether it’s a nation or an individual, get them into debt and then you own them.
You’re not free, you’re not human. You’re a performing monkey, a rat with no option but to stay in the race. You’re a slave, completely under their control, which was their goal right from the start. But if you buy property at the right time, you can be a partial winner. House prices might shoot up, and you will have a valuable asset. But what of others who didn’t get on the property ladder at the right time? They might now be priced out of the market. Ownership of houses generates winners and losers. There’s no skill involved, just luck. Did you get your timing right or not? By chance, some do, and others don’t. That chance could shape your future. You might rise up the pecking order, or fall down. You might have an asset that your children will inherit and then they will have an advantage over less fortunate children who have nothing to inherit from their parents.
Why should home ownership dictate your wealth and status, your prospects in life, and even that of your children? It shouldn’t, but it does. It has nothing at all to do with merit. One of the classic mantras of the Power Elite to maintain their rule is contained in the principle: divide and rule. Look at how society is constructed. The basic unit is the family. Each family lives in its own small, square box (house), cut off from others. Each has one or more cars in which they can again cut themselves off from others. Each is determined to do the best for its own members, and to hell with everyone else.
A society based on the family is full of division, of narrow selfinterest, of fear and distrust of others. Everywhere, there are barriers between people. No one is cooperating. We are in the most horrific zero-sum game where if one family wins another loses. Families rising up are invariably pushing other families down. Rich families send their children to private schools to ensure that they get a better education than those who can’t afford private school. Once you have gone to a private school, and then an elite college or university, you are eligible for the fine things in life: the best jobs, the best houses, the most attractive partners. You are part of a rigged system, a cartel that is designed to favour you and penalize those who don’t share your privileged background. In Britain, this is known as “the old school tie”. If you walk into a job interview and you have the right tie and the right accent, you will get the job. An equally or more meritorious candidate from a poorer background has no chance. This is how society works. This is the gospel of the family.
Anyone who does not come from a good, stable, prosperous family is in real trouble. They are likely to slip into the dreaded underclass where they will lead a life of grinding misery with little or no chance of improving themselves. They will resort to drugs and crime to get them through. We have been divided into countless selfish, competing little units and the elite, dynastic families at the top of the pyramid are ruling us. We live in a disguised feudal system; the lords at the top and the serfs (us) effectively owned by them. We are all cutting each other’s throats, desperately trying to climb the pyramid and drag down those above us and stand on those below us. No one is ever condemned for saying, “I’d do anything for my family.” Indeed this is the principle by which most parents operate. Yet Christianity says, “Love thy neighbour as thyself”; “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” No well-off family loves the underclass, no well-off family wants to be done to as they do unto the underclass. None of these families are Christians, even though they say they believe in Christ. Capitalism is a cut-throat ideology, a robber’s creed. It’s all about how you can get one over your neighbours, how you can get more money, status and power than others. The “American Dream” is about a person or family rising from nowhere to the very top, above everyone else. It’s not about a whole nation rising.
Life is very simple in many respects. Would you rather have leaders who think that society is improved by raising up everyone, or by those who seek their own personal advantage at any cost, regardless of the impact on others? Do you think Wall Street operates in your interests or its own? And if it is not operating in the interests of all the people, why is it tolerated at all? “Greed is good,” said Gordon Gekko in Wall Street. Perhaps for the likes of him, but not for anyone else.
Why do we sign up for our own servitude? It doesn’t need to be like this.
A very simple moral test can be applied to every decision. Is it done to benefit you alone or to help you and everyone else? Wall Street’s morality is the former; Washington DC’s morality is the former; capitalism promotes the former; the family abides by the former.
The antidote to family is community. The antidote to capitalism is community. The antidote to narrow self-interest is community. The antidote to Wall Street and big business is community. “Christianity” is theoretically (but not in practice) about community. Illumination is about community.
And community is all about trying to create the environment for each and every person to achieve their maximum potential. An underclass would be unacceptable in a society based on community. Racism, sexism, discrimination, privilege would be unacceptable. At the moment, a tiny elite live as gods while the vast majority of humanity live in grim conditions with only a few dollars a day to survive. Imagine a world where everyone is flourishing, achieving, contributing. What could humanity not achieve? This is the path of light, the way to the True God. What we have at the moment is rule by the Demiurge, based on division, conflict, self-interest, hatred, selfishness and greed. The institutions of the world serve his and their interests, not those of the people. His ideology has triumphed. The Power Elite, the Old World Order, are his Chosen Ones who have implemented his destructive, hateful will to the letter.
Do you think there is a single godly person in Wall Street? They are the high priests of the Demiurge, and their skyscraper offices are his Satanic synagogues. Their chosen task in life is to enrich themselves at everyone else’s expense.
To this day there are people working for the defunct organisation Lehman Brothers. Their task is to unravel all of the deals that Lehman was involved with before it collapsed. These people, who took huge bonuses while their bank was crashing, caused by their disastrous decisions, are still being given huge bonuses because otherwise they would leave and it would be impossible to clean up their mess. In other words, they were paid a fortune while they were destroying their bank with their recklessness and stupidity, and now they are being paid a fortune to clean up the destruction. They win no matter the circumstances. That’s the way the OWO operates.
A bank robber goes into a bank and steals a million dollars – that’s a crime. A chief executive officer goes into a bank, nearly bankrupts it through his incompetence, then takes out a hundred million dollars in salary, share options, benefits in kind and finally an enormous payoff when he finally gets fired. That’s business. It’s entirely legitimate. But think about it – who’s the bigger criminal? Who has done the most damage to the bank? If you are “authorized”, you can do anything you like. You have a licence to help yourself to as much money as you like. No one will stop you.
Who are the authorities? Who appoints them? Who monitors and regulates them? Who is allowed to remove them from office? Do the people ever have any say?
At Davos, a luxury ski resort in Switzerland, world leaders gather annually to discuss the economic future of the world. Politicians, bankers, industrialists, media moguls…the entire ruling class, the Old World Order, come together to decide how to carve up the world pie. You have no say in any of it. No one consults you. Your opinions are ignored. This is the way the world works. Why do you tolerate it? Why does anyone put up with this?
It was these people, these fat cats who go to Davos and preach to the world about economic probity, who wrecked the world’s economy, who caused millions to lose their jobs and homes. What makes them think they are experts, that they are “good” for the world, that the world would fall apart without them? The reverse is true. If they vanished, it would be the best thing for the world. As the old joke says, what do you call a thousand lawyers at the bottom of the sea? A good start. The same is true for all bankers, accountants, politicians, stock market traders, advertisers, celebrities. Send them to the bottom of the ocean to “swim with the fishes.”
We won’t be free until it’s no longer possible to point at someone and say, “There goes one of the Power Elite.” There should be no Power Elite, no one with vastly more money than others, no one with vastly more influence, no one who is treated as a king.

The Moneyless Economy:
We often make reference to the world envisioned by Star Trek. The reason for that is simple. Everyone is familiar with it. No one thinks it’s a horrific picture of the future. Yet it’s a so-called New World Order. It’s a one-world government. There is no nationalism, racism, sexism, discrimination. There is no celebrity culture, no Power Elite, no dynastic families, no privilege. Religion is a private matter. There is no want, poverty or famine. Replication technology produces all the food needed for the world. Above all, there is no money in Star Trek. “The economics of the future is somewhat different. You see, money doesn’t exist in the 24th century. The acquisition of wealth is no longer the driving force in our lives. We work to better ourselves and the rest of humanity.” –Jean-Luc Picard http://en.wikipedia.org/
Why isn’t humanity geared up for “bettering ourselves”, for self-enhancement, for enlightenment? Star Trek relentlessly mocks capitalism. Capitalists are represented as the Ferengi – vile creatures who will do anything to turn a profit, who have no moral scruples whatever, who obey only one law: the Profit Principle. They are the Wall Street gang in outer space. Communism is given equally short shrift. The Borg are the communists of the future. Everyone has to be absorbed into the collective.
As for the Federation, it’s a Technocratic Meritocracy. The Star Trek vision of society is effectively identical to that of the Venus Project featured in Zeitgeist Addendum:
“So the ultimate question remains: Do we on earth have enough resources and technological understanding to create a society of such abundance, that everything we have now could be available without a price tag and without the need for submission through employment? Yes, we do! “We have the resources and technology to enable this at a minimum, along with the ability to raise the standard of living so high that people in the future will look back at our civilization now and gawk at how primitive and immature our society was.” –Peter Joseph, Zeitgeist Addendum
“What the Venus Project proposes is an entirely different system that’s updated to present day knowledge.” –Jacque Fresco, Zeitgeist Addendum
“We’ve never given scientists the problem of: How do you design a society that would eliminate boring and monotonous jobs?…That would eliminate accidents in transportation…that would enable people to have a high standard of living…that would eliminate poisons in our food…give us other sources of energy, that are clean and efficient. We can do that out there.”
“The major difference between a resource based economy and a monetary system is that a resource based economy is really concerned with people and their well-being, where the monetary system has become so distorted that the concerns of the people are really secondary, it they’re there at all. The products that are turned out are for: How much money you can get? If there is a problem in society and you can’t earn money from that solving that problem, than it won’t be done.”
“The resource based economy is really not close to anything that’s been tried. And with all our technology today we can create abundance. It could be used to improve everyone’s lifestyle. Abundance all over the world if we use our technology wisely and maintain the environment.” –Roxanne Meadows, Zeitgeist Addendum
“It’s a very different system and it’s very hard to talk about because the public is not that well enough informed as to the state of technology.” –Jacque Fresco, Zeitgeist Addendum

Conclusion:
All the pillars of Western society are in decline. Mainstream religion has failed to deliver a world of which anyone can be proud. The combination of free market capitalism and democracy has brought the world to the brink of financial ruin. Respect for politicians, bankers, lawyers, media moguls, businessmen is at an all-time low. The Old World Order have failed and the failure can no longer be concealed. Their army and police wait in the wings to impose the will of the Power Elite, but the people are losing their fear.
The internet permits global communication. New ideas can cross the planet in seconds. Viral campaigns can change human consciousness. At the moment, the internet is used for many frivolous, disconnected reasons, but that can all change.
One group of intelligent, energetic, determined people could seize the intellectual high ground via the internet and set the agenda for the future…light the touch paper that brings a bright new dawn to the world. They could create a new religion to inspire the world, a new political party to replace the corrupt and failed parties of the present, a new psychological understanding of humanity to ensure that each and every person is treated as an individual and that their talents are maximised. A new world. A new life. A new dawn. A new humanity.
Can the Movement change the world? That depends on the merit, intelligence, zeal and commitment of its members. Can you make a difference?
Join the Movement.
The future is ours…if we choose to seize it.

Academia Iluministă (83)
The message of the Illuminati is that people should aim to make contact with their divine spark, to release their inner divinity, to transform themselves beyond recognition and express their higher, hidden selves, to “become God”. Many people are perplexed by this concept. They can’t see how it could possibly happen.
The other books in this series provide extensive guidance. They describe Nietzsche’s philosophy of the Superman, Jung’s concept of Individuation (the process of self-development which leads to well-balanced, “whole” individuals who have overcome all of the weakness and flaws that have held them back), the Illuminati’s controversial concept of “Sin for Salvation” which frees people from the chains of the Old World Order’s slavery, and the practices of ancient Greek mystery religions, with which the Illuminati were closely connected before they became a formal organisation under Pythagoras, the first Grand Master. For those who want to read a quasi-scientific account of having God inside your head, Julian Jaynes’s book The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind is one of the most remarkable books ever written. It is one short step from Jaynes’s theory to a realisation of the truth of the human condition. Ask yourself this question: does God reside in the right hemisphere of your brain?
Central to the concept of “becoming God” is that you yourself must start to don the mantle of God. This is the core of Gnosticism. No Christian would ever say that you could become Christ, no Jew that you could become Jehovah, no Muslim that you could become Allah. For these sad people, “God” is always an alien, terrifying, far distant being, regarding whom the only appropriate response is to fall on your face, cower and beg for mercy.
For the Illuminati, God is inside us all, and everyone can find his transcendent inner light and undergo the ultimate metamorphosis. We are like larvae, awaiting the moment when we emerge as our true selves. Larva means “ghost” in Latin; we haunt the world as something incomplete and primitive before we find the means to liberate our divine spark and assume our true form, like the most radiant and colourful of butterflies. (The butterfly has always been a symbol of the soul.) Which message do you think is healthier, more optimistic and most magnificent in its grandeur and the possibilities it opens for humanity? God outside us or God inside? Which one is imbued with infinite hope, aspiration and the possibility of limitless personal transformation? People can choose to believe in the morbid and sickly slave religions of Christianity, Judaism and Islam, or embrace freedom and light and aspire to be the greatest they can be.
The choices you make are what define you. Are you healthy or ill? Are you a god in the making, or someone living on your knees, worshipping a tyrant? The “God” of Christianity, Judaism and Islam is Satan, Rex Mundi, the Demiurge, a being of infinite egotism that craves worship from all of humanity. Ask yourself the most basic question – if you were God, would you want the human race to be prostrate before you, scared to raise their eyes to look at you, terrified of your power, terrified of the punishments you will inflict on them if they disobey you? If you did want those things then you would be no God, you would be a monster. The God of the Christians, Jews and Muslims is precisely that monster. You must reject this monster in every way if you are to attain your higher self.
Christians claim you will go to hell if you don’t believe in Jesus Christ, Muslims that you will go to hell if you don’t accept Mohamed, the Koran and Allah, the Jews that you will be damned if you reject Jehovah, Moses, the Ten Commandments and the hundreds of rules and regulations of Judaism. The Illuminati make no such claims. The Illuminati assert that they can guide you in the best and surest way towards your higher self, towards your personal divinity. But you do not need the Illuminati for salvation. It is immensely difficult, but people can find their own route to their higher self, without the help of anyone else.
It is never acceptable for any religious group to claim that it is indispensable, that without it you are damned. This is always a lie. It is the statement of an organisation seeking to control and manipulate you. Christianity, Judaism and Islam are amongst the most appalling systems of control the world has ever endured. Horrific wars have been fought in their name and grotesque violence meted out. Savagery and tyranny have always walked hand in hand with the three religions of “the Book”.
Abraham’s three religions have warped humanity. Abraham must be regarded as one of the most evil men of all time. Remember that this was the man who was prepared to sacrifice his own son Isaac because Jehovah commanded it. What God would ever demand such a “test”, and what man would ever be prepared to go ahead with it? Many fathers would rather die themselves than slay their own son, but not Abraham. This event is the centrepiece of the three religions of the Book and is one of the most chilling and disturbing tales ever told. What God wants from Abraham is fear and pathological, homicidal obedience. This is not God. This is Satan. It is one of the most obvious facts in the history of religion and yet billions continue to worship this dark lord of tyranny and madness. The 9/11 killers were psychotic followers of the Abrahamic message. What they did was entirely consistent with the Abrahamic mindset – killing others as the supreme gesture of obedience.
“God” stayed Abraham’s hand at the last moment, but that is neither here nor there. Abraham would have done it. No God, even for a moment, would toy with human beings in such a perverse, cruel and psychologically devastating way. (Think of the infinite terror experienced by Isaac while his own father stood over him ready to kill him in the name of God.) It is the act of a monster. There is no defence for this defining moment in the religions of the “People of the Book”. If you are prepared to kill your own son in the name of God, you will have no hesitation in killing those who have no relationship with you. This has been the first and foremost characteristic of the Abrahamic religions: slaughter and psychopathy. The Abrahamic religions are repulsive. No good and decent person would ever follow any of these crazed religions. The sooner the earth is free of them, of their nauseating savagery, violence and deceit, the better. They have been the greatest blight on humanity, an eternal curse. They have turned earth into hell. These are the religions of the Old World Order. These are the religions of terror, slavery, and absolute control. It is time for humanity to escape.
To become God, you must start to think and act like God. God does not ask questions; he provides answers. God does not bow to others. He is creative. He is fair, just, and understanding. He is surpassingly intelligent and has attained full self-knowledge. He would rather reward than punish. He would never, under any circumstances, choose to send someone to a place of infinite and perpetual suffering. People choose hell for themselves. God is forgiving, merciful, always determined to see the best in people, not the worst. God is interested in all not in a few.
Consider this quotation by Lewis Hamilton, the Formula 1 world champion, after winning the Singapore Grand Prix in 2009. “This was probably the busiest weekend of my life, with more appearances than ever. My dad and my stepmother were here, and my girlfriend [Pussycat Doll Nicole Scherzinger], and it was really great to meet Beyonce. I had a really great weekend and I’m very happy and looking forward to celebrating tonight. But if I was asked who was really responsible for all this, for me the one person is God. He gave us all our chance to be here and to be healthy, and blessed me with a great family around me, and for me that would be the answer.”
Hamilton is a man who drives a car in circles for a couple of hours every few weeks, bringing no benefit at all to humanity, yet is allowed to earn many millions of dollars in the process because we live in a truly ridiculous world. Is “God” really someone who spends his time conferring success on a racing driver? When Hamilton loses does he make a speech thanking God then? We’ve yet to hear that one. What about all of the people who lose in life? What about all of the people with diseases, disabilities, disastrous luck, disastrous family backgrounds, people who have never had a chance in life? Should they thank God too? How absurd.
In what way is Hamilton’s “God” just, fair, and interested in the welfare of all? God is not partisan and he certainly doesn’t root for certain racing drivers in a pointless yet astonishingly lucrative sport. How can it enter Hamilton’s head even for a moment that God in any way cares about F1 racing? What sort of blindness, stupidity and insanity must Hamilton be suffering from? Is the Bible full of tales of high-speed sports events? The tragedy is that so many people see God in this light: as helping certain favoured individuals and nations, and actively harming others. This was the nature of the Jehovah of the Old Testament: a vile, violent, angry and jealous god, vengeful and hateful, nominating the Jews as his “Chosen People” and taking their side to deadly effect in the land of Canaan where genocide was carried out against the Canaanites in his name, and with his active help. Jehovah is Satan. Hamilton’s “God” is Satan. This is the Old World Order’s God who panders to the rich and famous, who seeks to elevate some – his chosen ones – far above everyone else in order to sow the divided, unequal society we inhabit.
Hamilton is a spectacular fool. Why isn’t he utterly condemned by the leaders of Christianity for turning God into someone who wants to personally intervene in F1 races to ensure that Hamilton earns millions of pounds a year for driving a fast car? Is that what God has become – an F1 groupie?
It is said that people who smile all of the time are much happier than those who don’t. The very act of smiling releases chemicals that make people feel better. People who say “yes” all the time become much more positive and adventurous than those who continually say “no” and thus remain mired in unhealthy skepticism, cynicism, negativity and caution. In the same way, those who start answering questions rather than asking them find themselves undergoing a subtle and then increasingly remarkable change. God is the being with all of the answers. The more you provide answers, the more you resemble God. It doesn’t matter that your answers might start out spectacularly wrong. The very fact that you have come up with an answer at all is often far more of an achievement than most people can manage. As you gain practice and develop your skills, you will start to see that you find yourself answering problems everywhere, and your answers will become better and better. Paradoxically, you’ll also start to ask far better questions, which in turn will help to refine your answers. A miraculous alchemy takes place. Bit by bit, your answers turn from lead into gold. Things that baffled you in the past become clear. You start forming a myriad of connections between all of your answers. You become smarter and smarter. And all because you changed from being a questioner to an answerer. Give it a try. When you read or hear something and you are puzzled, instead of asking questions, why don’t you try to furnish your own answer, and then look for confirmation or refutation of your answer? Attempt to emulate God.
The Movement should be all about people endeavouring to furnish answers rather than continually asking questions. The former reflects an active and dominant attitude, the latter a passive and submissive one. To continually ask questions is to be continually bewildered, hesitant, unsure.
Walk the walk of God, talk the talk of God; move from asking questions to giving answers. Be active and proactive not passive and reactive. Be creative. Live and breathe the divine experience. Walk in God’s shoes. Empathise with him. See the world through his eyes. Bring your imagination to bear. Try to transcend the barriers and restrictions of your ordinary human existence. If the Bible/Koran/Torah were about you, what would you want these holy books to say? What would you want to tell humanity? What lessons would you want men and women to learn? What would you do if the eternal souls of all of humanity were in your hands, and everyone’s fate was decided by your decisions?
You may feel alone in the world at the moment, but you aren’t. At the moment, many men and women of integrity are fighting isolated battles against the Old World Order. They don’t get the chance to come together with like-minded people. Their resistance is solitary. They need convincing that there are other people of equal integrity fighting the same battles elsewhere. The Movement is the organisation for all such people. The Movement is the Resistance to the Old World Order. The Movement is a link to the Illuminati’s historical struggle for freedom. The Movement is the chance to build a New World Order based on Illuminism and meritocracy.
The old religions are dead. Democracy is dead. Free market capitalism is dead. It’s time for a new future and a new world. And each and every one of you can help to build it.
Novus Ordo Seclorum – “New Order of the Ages.”
Novus Ordo Mundi – “New World Order.”
Annuit Cœptis – “He has favoured our undertakings.”
It’s time to change the world. Are you ready?
Go out and be gods!

Encountering God:
Most people have little chance of coming into contact with their higher self. People living conventional lives are stuck in the narrow and stultifying confines of social acceptability. They are defined by “status” i.e. how they shape up to those around them. They crave high status and dread misfortune plunging them into low status. But status is simply a social construct. No one has to place themselves within any pecking order.
What is for certain is that those who obey the rules of a restrictive society designed to ensure the ongoing triumph of the Power Elite have turned their backs on their higher selves.
To obey “false gods” is the worst mistake anyone can make.
One person who has led an unconventional life and thereby given himself an exceptional opportunity to tap into transformative experiences is DB from Florida. When DB first contacted us, he said of himself that he didn’t have much to offer in respect of wealth, education or prominence. What he did have to offer, he said, was “something 99.9% percent of the population have no understanding of.” His story, in his own words, is told below:
“Shaman.”
Most of my life I have searched for the truth as it relates to God. When I was 18, I travelled all over the U.S. without any money, living about as free a life as one could. While I was travelling, all the concepts of who I thought I was changed greatly. Travelling without money forced me to let go of preconceived ideas about the people around me and my own thoughts about the world. During that time I had an experience of my heart chakra opening. It opened me up to the understanding of unconditional love. At that time, I associated with the idea of being born again. As I tried to relay my experience to others, I quickly realized they could not understand anything past the material essence of things, and the God most people worshipped was as superficial as the lives they lead. Within a couple of years I was back into my search again. There had to be something more. In those couples of years I read just about every occult book I could get my hands on. I knew there was something in all the writing I had read but I could not grasp what it was I was looking at.
There came a moment where a chain of events happened that changed my entire perception of the world and religion forever. I was having a conversation with an individual who was very much into shamanism. After a long conversation, he stated, “You see time and space existing and God separate from yourself.” I was so baffled by his statement that I started reading books on time and space theory. Once again I knew his statement had truth in it but I was not able to grasp it. About a week after that I was with my girlfriend, and a friend of hers came to the apartment. She said the man had his own religion. I couldn’t help thinking to myself that he must be nuts. When I started talking with him about his religion, he said that he was God. It took me three hours of debating with him to try and figure out his angle. It made sense yet I couldn’t understand. While we were talking, my girlfriend called him into the other room. I felt I was on the verge of finally making sense of it all and was so frustrated when he walked into the other room. This overwhelming feeling came over me like I would never get it. A few minutes passed and he came back into the room. I asked him, “If you are God then what happens to me when I die?” He simply answered, “You go back to me.” As I tried to figure out his answer, he said, “Stop peaking from behind the bushes.” At that moment I had this visualization of peaking around the bushes. All of a sudden I felt an energy from the top of my head. Then there was one from my heart chakra. As fast as I noticed both sensations, the energy moved up from my heart chakra to connect with the crown chakra. In that moment I knew the universe is pure energy. All things are connected and that we are indeed God.
I know what I am and, for that matter, I know what we all are, and it is not matter at all. This all happened when I was in my early 20’s. I am now 36. For years I could not figure out why me, and to this day I do not know why. I have spent years trying to wake people up to the extent that they can understand. The other thing I don’t know is what to do with it outside of trying to show people there is more than what they perceive. I sometimes find it a great burden, but for me it is the greatest story of my life and I get to tell it so little.
There are only a few things I seek in this life:
1) Understanding my experience.
2) How to put it to good use
3) The last and final thing is who has lied to humanity for millennia?
******
We’re grateful to DB for sharing this epiphany with us. The shaman he encountered sounds like someone who has managed to make regular contact with his divine spark, and thus to have become truly enlightened, to the extent that, without embarrassment or self-consciousness, he can state that he is God. Only people who have been on astounding personal quests, or who have successfully passed through every degree of a mystery religion such as Illumination, can reach such a state.
“When the doors of perception are cleansed, man will see everything as it is, infinite.” –William Blake
DB also said, “What I would be interested in the most is learning how to utilize my experience to awaken others. Over the years, I have learned a great deal of information and found how all things in life connect. If one were truly to see that language, science, mathematics, art, and music in the deeper aspects reveal divinity in all things, the world would be changed overnight. Unfortunately, trying to relay anything outside of the latest episode of American Idol seems to be a difficult task in the world of zombies.”
DB is right. Nothing is more difficult than trying to awaken those who have been long asleep, yet hope still glimmers in the deep shadows. Even those shallow people who watch American Idol are aware of a spiritual vacuum in their lives. What they need, above all, are ideas and experiences to take them away from their current trivial mindset. But that’s where the “genius” of the Demiurge comes is. He created religions such as Christianity, Islam and Judaism that manage to turn the sacred and transcendent into a tedious chore to be performed every Sabbath.
In the past, these religions terrified believers into compliance with their visions of eternal torment in hell, but the modern mind finds it harder and harder to envisage that fiery hell that haunted medieval thinking. The word that best applies to religion in the contemporary world is “boring”. Some believers whip themselves into a frenzy of fanaticism in a desperate attempt to resurrect some vestige of religious passion, but the harder they struggle to find authenticity, the more they seem like the most fake people on earth. The Christian Fundamentalists of America yearning for the “Rapture”, the Orthodox Jews nodding like asses in front of the Wailing Wall, the suicide killers of Islam – these people are desperate beyond words. Their common factor is that they are full of hatred for those who don’t share their beliefs, and have an exterminatory mentality. The world would be paradise, they think, if they could kill everyone who disagrees with them. Despite their gaping theological differences, they have much more in common with each other than with the rest of humanity. Most of the savagery and hatred in the world stems from precisely those people who claim to be the strongest believers in a good, compassionate, loving and forgiving God.
The old revealed religions must be swept away and replaced by initiatory, mystery religions that are designed to awaken the human spirit rather than twist it and turn it toxic.
American Idol is a symbol of the modern version of religion – celebrity. Celebrities are our new gods. Ordinary people crave the celebrities’ fame, their looks, their personalities, their wealth, their power, their status. They represent everything ordinary people are not and everything ordinary people want to be. If only we could become celebrities, we say, all of our problems would end. We would have all we ever desired.
Our homes have become our churches where we each have our personal Ark of the Covenant – our TV set – that allows us to contact the divine. Our flat screen TVs reveal the holy paradise of celebrity to us. The judging panel of American Idol are all St Peters, holding the keys to the gates of heaven. If only we could get through those gates we would be gods.
Yet these celebrities are the most selfish, greedy, undeserving, uninspiring, shallow and fake gods ever devised. They are all about “me” and nothing to do with “we”. “Because I’m worth it,” they say. A celebrity is the glorification of the individual at everyone else’s expense. A true God is on everyone’s side, not his own. How could anyone worship a god who worships himself? Yet celebrities and the super rich are now those onto whom we project our notions of divinity. The transcendent sense of the divine has all but disappeared from the modern mind. Humanity cannot progress until it has found it again.
DB is one of the fortunate ones because he has glimpsed a higher reality, yet he rightly sees it as a sort of burden because an experience like that cuts him off from all those around him. What should he do? Give up and watch American Idol? Life would lose all meaning for him. DB, like all of those who seek the truth of the human condition, has no choice. He must keep searching.
Ordinary people are living under the seductive spell of the Demiurge. How can it be broken? The answer is to seduce them with something else, a greater magic, something that speaks to them much more powerfully. Yet no task could be more difficult. The Power Elite who run the world have poured everything into keeping the world in a zombified stupor of trivia and consumerism. The people behind American Idol are some of the richest people on earth. They know exactly how to manipulate the masses. But there are points of light in the darkness. Look at how successful the activist movie Zeitgeist was in getting people to watch hours of radical, subversive messages. But it wasn’t successful enough. It was a clear stream running into a vast ocean of pollution. The message soon vanished, replaced by new distractions devised by the Old World Order. The OWO ensured that no mainstream discussion of the Zeitgeist issues ever happened.
We need many more Zeitgeists, many more dynamic movements, a critical mass of new thinking that leads to a chain reaction that sweeps away the Old World Order with their sterile, materialistic view of humanity.
Everyone has to do their bit, to make their unique contribution. The masses will start to pay attention when they see a group arising amongst them that offers a radical new vision. No politician is going to bring about a new society, so forget elections. Forget Obama and any other would-be political “Messiah”.
The media, full of hacks and OWO lackeys aren’t going to chase anything other than ratings, so forget them too. Corporations aren’t interested in anything other than the avaricious pursuit of profits, so forget them. Conventional religions aren’t interested in anything other than trying to prop up belief systems that died in people’s hearts and souls long ago, so forget them. There’s no one left to turn to. We can rely only on ourselves.
We encourage everyone to take part in the Movement. Meet up with other like-minded people in your area. Start campaigning. Start promoting new ideas. Stop taking part in the American Idol society.
We have given a broad outline of what we think the Movement should be, but it’s not for us to dictate to anyone. It’s up to each of you to shape the Movement. It’s your creativity that counts. There are no right answers and no wrong ones when it comes to the Movement. Some ideas will work and flourish, others won’t and will perish. That’s evolution. But evolution requires everyone to try or the only game in town will be the OWO’s, and haven’t we had enough of that?
Join the active society rather than capitalist society of passive consumption. Change yourselves. Change the world. The very act of trying will inspire you. No one is saying it’s easy – it isn’t – but nothing will change without effort and struggle. Christianity is the dominant religion now, but it took hundreds of years to get there and the early Christians (who, thanks to the influence of Gnosticism on early Christianity, were almost the opposite of modern Christians) suffered terrible persecution. Nowadays, there is little danger of overt persecution, and the internet can allow new ideas to cross the world in moments and capture the imagination of the masses.
It’s up to us. No one is coming to help us. If we don’t make the effort, no one else will. And who are we going to blame then? The prize is the whole of humanity reaching out towards its collective divine spark, and finally achieving gnosis, individually and collectively. Compare that with the Demiurge’s world of shopping malls and American Idol. Idol is the right word. The world is currently worshipping the falsest of gods.
It’s time for the twilight of the idols. It’s time for a new dawn, a new humanity, a new world order. It’s time for the dawn of the Gods.

The Musical Fightback:
There are many ways to fight back against the Power Elite. Music is high on the list. Good music can transform us. A hip hop artist and two bands have contacted us and we’ve had the chance to listen to some of their material. They are all talented, have completely different styles, and they have something different and meaningful to say. They are an antidote to Simon Cowell’s American Idol and X-Factor junk machine that takes music, feeds it through a “trivia filter”, and out at the other end pops bland, sterile, synthetic, artificial, desiccated, plastic, manufactured muzak for people who hate real music – the zombie masses who listen to anything so long as the singer looks pretty and is wearing the latest fashions. The music industry is now about the brand. The music itself is a secondary consideration. A singer with a great “brand” and average voice will always massively outsell a singer with a great voice and average brand. So much for musical talent.
Music from 1950-2000 was about rebellion, about rejecting the establishment. In the last decade, it has become just another arm of the consumption machine, a capitalist activity like any other, shorn of all its power and meaning. Bands are banal. They have nothing to say. The music industry exists just as a means to make Simon Cowell and his ilk absurdly rich, and to let advertisers expensively demonstrate their wares at “music” festivals (actually just merchandising and brand promotion opportunities). Pop has finally eaten itself. Music is too important to permit it to be corrupted and trivialised. The musicians we have showcased here are all fighting back. The music industry is one of the toughest on earth to crack, especially for those who aren’t interested in pandering to Simon Cowell, but these guys all have the talent to make it. Now they just need the right wind. It’s time to make music a weapon to change the world. Let the people hear the mystical and transcendent Music of the Spheres, the beat to which the whole cosmos dances.

M:
What will you do to defeat the oppressors who run our world? Read a few articles on the internet and nod your head, then go back to whatever you were doing before? The world changes because people make it change. Tragically, there are few genuine “changers” out there: people who make things happen, people who actually do things.
One of the most depressing aspects of the human race is that so many people are so passive. Sure, they complain until they’re blue in the face when they’re sitting in a bar ventilating to their friends, but what do they actually do to make a difference? Yet some people – the game changers – do not hesitate. They don’t wait for life. Instead, they make life do their bidding. They are dynamos, burning with excess energy. If they soared into the night sky, they would light up the world. A Movement that can bring on board all of the game changers cannot lose.
The Old World Order will collapse when they discover they are up against a group of people who are much more intelligent, talented, committed and determined than they are. That group is forming right now. You can be part of it too. Join the Movement. Become who you were always meant to be. Demonstrate the talent and energy that marks out leaders. In the Movement, leaders are not appointed. They emerge through their own efforts. They create themselves.
__________
Are you a leader?:
Can you clinically analyze the tyranny of the Old World Order and show how they maintain their control? Can you devise tactics for how they can be resisted? Can you write fiery polemics, or make incendiary videos? Can you demonstrate to others how the Movement can evolve, what strategies it can adopt, what policies it can advocate. Can you help? Can you do better? What are your proposals? What creativity can you supply? What new thinking? What new ideas? What energy? The Movement is based only on what you can bring. There is no one to tell you what to do. The responsibility is entirely yours.
The Movement is dialectical. It evolves, it advances, it continually refines itself and raises itself to higher levels. It is not dogmatic or written in stone like the dead “commandments” of the past.
The Movement will arise from the creativity of talented people. They will shape it, direct it, make it everything it is. They will solve the problems that confront it. They will make it great. It will become unstoppable. The Movement is the general will of the people, and nothing is more righteous nor more legitimate.
The Old World Order say, just as the “heroes” of Ayn Rand’s repellent book Atlas Shrugged did, that they will abandon us to our fate if we do not give them all they demand. They say they will withdraw to some hidden paradise, a valley in the mountains, where they will live as gods. They say we will be unable to cope without their unique “gifts”, without their “inspiring” leadership.
We say, “Be Gone!” Go to your fantasy valley. You are nothing without the people.
We will serve ourselves, not them. We will lead ourselves. We have no need of them. We will share the rewards of our endeavours. We will not line their pockets any longer.
The people are the rightful rulers of this world, not the Power Elite. The people have talent and quality in abundance. It’s time for the people to free themselves.
Join the resistance. Join the Movement.
M for the Movement!

Viral Campaigns:
We would also like to encourage schemes of this type:
http://thisman.org/
This is a viral campaign by a “guerrilla” advertising agency that uses non-conventional communication techniques. In this case, it is not clear what is being advertised. Activist videos tend to preach to the converted, but a successful movement also has to reach out to non-activists. The best way to interest them is through intriguing, tangential, viral videos that hint at the Movement in the subtlest of ways.
The “Who is this man?” campaign is cunning and clever. It captures the imagination. Could you do something similar for the Movement? It takes a lot of creative talent to pull off something like that.
Anyone who is searching for ideas is free to use any material from Mike Hockney’s books The Last Bling King, Prohibition A, The Armageddon Conspiracy and The Millionaires’ Death Club to make viral videos. It may be freely adapted as you see fit to get your particular point across.
The Movement is all about producing an alternative vision of society, free of the toxins of the past. It is based on the people themselves deciding what is best for them. Imagine starting the design of a new world from scratch, with a completely blank slate, yet with knowledge of the failures of the past. How would you begin?
The Old World Order has failed. Now is the time for the New World Order where the people are in charge, as they always should have been. It won’t be easy, particularly in the beginning. Progress will be slow, few people will join initially, and many will fall by the wayside.
But it is those who have the courage, the determination and the commitment who will, in time, achieve something magnificent, something of which they will be infinitely proud. Only the toughest and most talented should get involved because only they will see it through to the end. But it is precisely these people, the most meritocratic, the ones with the energy and vision, who will make all the difference, who will change this world of ours.
It doesn’t matter what race you belong to, what sex you are, what your family background is, what your “status” is, what your education is, what country you come from, what religion you were raised in. You and your talents are all that matter. Show the world what you are made of. Shape the world in your image rather than let the Power Elite shape it in theirs.
No one should have to tell you to do anything. You should just do it. If you have the energy and the ability, you can make the world pay attention. All it takes is for a few thousand people of irrepressible creativity and the Movement will become an irresistible force. The members of the Movement should be interested in everything: art, science, politics, psychology, economics, religion, you name it. What is your area of expertise? How can you make a contribution?
The hope is that smart men and women of all ages will come together and, using the unique power of “crowdsourcing”, arrive at optimal solutions for all aspects of our society. At last, we will truly have a government of the people, by the people and for the people.
Join the Movement. Give the world the benefit of your experience and talent. Show the Old World Order that their day is done, that their race is run, that their tyranny is broken and smashed forever. Make the world what it should be.

The Society Of The Active:
A Facebook campaign in the UK resulted in Killing in the Name by Rage Against the Machine getting to the top of the music charts at Christmas in preference to the cover version of The Climb performed by Joe McElderry, winner of Simon Cowell’s X-Factor show. Cowell’s creation is a cynical machine for manufacturing glorified karaoke singers. It’s for innocuous sock puppet performers with minimal talent, who can’t write songs, can’t play an instrument, and can’t think for themselves. How can such people represent the heart and soul of music? They are a joke. They are the pushers of anti- music, of muzak. They are the numbing voice of the shopping mall.
Congratulations to the Facebook campaigners. Brick by brick, the empire of junk can be demolished.
What element of the Old World Order’s arrogant edifices can you attack? Start a campaign, make a YouTube video, blog, create web sites, organise protests, write to newspapers, complain, petition, get in their faces.
We encourage as many people as possible to set up their own website or blog and express their own ideas. Website by website, blog by blog, it all amounts to a vast tide of change that will sweep away the Old World Order.
Henry Ford rightly said that you cannot build a reputation based on what you are going to do. You must actually do something. Why not do one thing a day, one personal daily contribution to human freedom? It can be a very small thing: it all adds up.
It’s time to move from the society of the passive to the society of the active.
Join the Resistance. Join the Movement.

The Day Of Rage:
The Knights Templar began in mysterious circumstances in 1119 CE with just nine men. For a decade, they recruited no new members and virtually nothing is known in official records about what they did during those years. After that, the Order grew with astonishing rapidity and became a major force in world affairs.
Now the Movement has begun with an equally select group of members, the new Templars so to speak. For a decade, they may labour in the wilderness just as the original Templars did, then explode on the world scene. Do you want to be part of history? Be in at the beginning. Be one of the original knights who will change the course of history. Don’t read about history, make it. Join the Movement now.
We propose a Day of Rage to protest against the obscene greed of these bankers, particularly those working for Goldman Sachs.
So, what can you do? Can you start a campaign on Facebook, Bebo, MySpace, Twitter, YouTube? Can you rally the people? Let the Movement decide when the Day of Rage should be. Let the Movement decide how to orchestrate a massive response from ordinary people. Let the Movement choose the details of the campaign. Perhaps someone could put together a montage of protest songs, laid over images of pig-like bankers wallowing in their golden money trough.
Rise up. Sweep away the bankers on a wave of sound. Make bankers anathema: accursed, blood-sucking vampires shunned by all decent people. Make them pariahs. The Day of Rage will mark the start of the people’s revolt, the beginning of the long march to liberation. Can the Movement use their energy, talent, creativity and ingenuity to make it happen?
******
Show the world what you are made of. Shape the world in your image rather than let the Power Elite shape it in theirs. Can the Movement beat the advertising business at its own game? Know your enemy. Use their own tactics against them.
Everyone who shares in the mutual political, economic, spiritual, and psychological goals we all know too well is encouraged to join and share this spark.
We ask that you at the very LEAST blast social media on this day with as many posts as possible with the Movement’s message. Tag your whole friends list, take pictures holding banners in the streets, plaster stickers all over town and video it, stop traffic with your message, post on religious and political forums, spam celebrity pages, download flyers from our website and pass them around town. Do everything and anything, and if you don’t get it right this month, immediately start strategizing for next month.
Dozens of example memes, pictures, and flyers can be found on the TMR website for download available to all who have embraced the sacred cause.

This will continue each and every month from here on out. The 13th of each month will be forever known as: M Day, the official “Day of Rage”. Everyone should use the following HASHTAGS for all posts on the 13th:

All revolutions start with a few, faltering steps that become more and more certain until the whole world resounds to the irresistible march of the future.
“It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom – for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.” –Extract from the Declaration of Arbroath, Scotland, 1320

“I Want You To Get Mad!”
Peter Finch, in the film Network, gives a truly extraordinary performance. His incendiary speech is a tour de force. It’s one of the finest “activist” speeches ever devised. No matter how many times it’s viewed, it retains its raw power, its righteous anger and supremely inspirational effect. After watching it, is there any decent person who would not want to go to the window, open it, stick their head out and yell, “I’m as mad as hell and I’m not going to take it anymore.” This speech is only a short piece of work, just over 4 minutes. Could you and your friends write a speech as inspiring as this and deliver it in an effective YouTube video to awaken the people from their long stupor?
The Last Bling King contains a number of polemical speeches. You could use one of these as your starting point and then mould it to suit your own purposes. You are free to amend any of the speeches in the book in any way you deem fit.

The Soundtrack Of The Revolution:
The bank bonus season comes around all too quickly each year, the annual season of the pig. In the midst of a financial crisis that they themselves created, that has and will cost millions of ordinary people their jobs that has crippled every nation with vast debts that will take decades to pay off, the banking pigs again gorge themselves in the gilt-lined money trough. No one ever stops them.
Bankers are the most hated people on earth. No decent person would ever want to become a banker. No decent person would ever attempt to defend them. They are a self-selecting group of pariahs. To a man, they are enemies of the people.
The essential idea is to compile a list of protest songs from every nation in the world. Then, on a chosen day, every radio station should be flooded with requests for these songs, accompanied by messages condemning the greed of the bankers. It will be the soundtrack of the revolution. If some radio stations comply then massive pressure will then be placed on every other station. Those that don’t play the requests will, in effect, be taking the side of the bankers and will lose all credibility with their audiences. Will they take that risk?
The “game” is to place commercial stations in a position where they must side with the bankers or the people. As capitalists, the owners of the stations will no doubt be on the side of their banking chums, but as capitalists they will also know that they will endanger their own commercial futures if they alienate their audiences. They will be in an impossible position. The more “impossible situations” we can create for the capitalist money men, the more we will erode their power.
The song Vengeance by New Model Army burns with rage. Songs can transform the world. Some songs are ablaze. They can set the citadels of the Old World Order on fire. Metaphorically, wouldn’t every good person want to see the empire of Goldman Sachs in flames? Instantly, the world would be a better place.
“I believe in justice. I believe in vengeance. I believe in getting the bastards.” –New Model Army
The Movement is the New Model Army for the 21st Century.

Documents that will change the World?:
Can you model a Declaration of Universal Liberation on the American Declaration of Independence? It should be an inspirational document that sets out how the people all across the globe will be freed from all the systems of control that are used to keep them in chains and shackles.
Can you create a Universal Constitution modelled on the American Constitution? What would the Constitution of the future meritocratic world envisaged in Star Trek be like?
Can you create a 21st century equivalent of the Fama Fraternitatis, the document that amazed Europe and upon which the Rosicrucian phenomenon was based? Inspire the world all over again:

The Meme War:
An advertising agency wanted to find the coolest kid in a small town so that they could give him free samples of a clothing brand they were promoting. The idea was that if this kid wore this gear, all the other kids would want to imitate the coolest kid and they’d all rush out and buy the product. Was this idea sheer cynicism, or genius?
So, how did they find the kid they were seeking? They went to the target town, walked up to the first kid they found and asked him who was the coolest person he knew. He gave them a name. They then found that person and asked him too. Each time, they got a new answer, but eventually they found a kid who, when they put the usual question to him about who was the coolest person he knew, just grinned. They had got their guy!
Can this technique be applied to other situations? Could the “coolest” person on Facebook be determined by this method? Could the smartest people be located, the most adventurous, creative, imaginative, energetic etc? Can you create a viral video, a viral song, a viral email, a viral speech, a viral Facebook campaign? This is a meme war. The M meme must spread far and wide, beyond the capability of the Old World Order to resist.
M for the Movement, tag it and keep moving!

Tags: Academia Iluministă
Academia Iluministă (82)
THIS IS ONE OF A SERIES OF BOOKS outlining the religion, politics and philosophy of the ancient and controversial secret society known as the Illuminati, of which the Greek polymath Pythagoras was the first official Grand Master. The society exists to this day and the author is a member, working under the pseudonym of “Adam Weishaupt” – the name of the Illuminati’s most notorious Grand Master.
The Illuminati’s religion is the most highly developed expression of Gnosticism and is called Illumination (alternatively, Illuminism). Dedicated to the pursuit of enlightenment, it has many parallels with the Eastern religions of Hinduism, Buddhism and Taoism. It rejects the Abrahamic religions of faith: Judaism, Christianity and Islam, considering these the work of the “Demiurge”; an inferior, cruel and wicked deity who deludes himself that he is the True God, and who has inflicted endless horrors on humanity.
If you wish to judge for yourself how deranged the Demiurge is, you need only read the Old Testament, the story of the Demiurge’s involvement with his “Chosen People”, the Hebrews. You may wonder why the “God of All” entered into an exclusive and partisan Covenant with a tribe in the Middle East several thousand years ago, why he promised them a land (Canaan) that belonged to others, and why he then actively participated with them in a genocidal war against the Canaanites. Even more bizarrely, according to Christian theology, he then dispatched all of those Hebrews, whom he had supported so fanatically, to Limbo – the edge of Hell – when they died. They couldn’t go to Heaven because they were indelibly marked by the “Original Sin” of Adam and Eve. Only the atonement provided by the agonising death of God’s “son”, Jesus Christ, could wipe the slate clean and allow the Hebrews to be released from Limbo. But there was a catch. Only those who accepted Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour were eligible for Paradise.
Of course, the Chosen People of “God” have almost entirely rejected Jesus Christ. Therefore, from the Christian perspective, nearly all of the Chosen People are now in hell proper. Don’t you find God’s behaviour distinctly odd? Indeed, unbelievable? Don’t alarm bells start ringing? Doesn’t the behaviour of this God sound rather more like what would be expected of Satan?
Remember that this same “God” ordered Abraham to perform human sacrifice on his own son, Isaac. Abraham, rather than rejecting this monstrous command, rather than denouncing the creature that gave it as evil incarnate, agreed to butcher his own flesh and blood to demonstrate how slavishly and mindlessly obedient he was – the prototype of all psychopathic, fanatical “believers”.
Does God’s command to Abraham sound like something that would ever pass the lips of the True God? We pity you if you think it does because you are surely a creature of the Demiurge and one of the legions of the damned. If, however, you doubt the credentials of the Abrahamic God, you may be receptive to the message of the Illuminati and our future-oriented, rational, scientific, mathematical and dialectical religion of light – Illumination.

Quotations:
“The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary.” –H.L. Mencken
“Politics is the art of preventing people from busying themselves with what is their own business.” –Paul Valéry
“Political language… is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind.” –George Orwell
__________
The Movement:
A number of people have expressed an interest in joining the Illuminati, but, by and large, they have been turned down even though they are bright, capable people. The Illuminati’s recruitment policy is, and has been for over a thousand years, connected with the core religious secrets of the society. For obvious reasons, these cannot be divulged.
Illumination, the religion of the Illuminati, is a “mystery” religion akin to those of ancient Greece, and the inner secrets are revealed only to those who have attained the highest mystery degrees. Those who are recruited by the Illuminati are those who have been identified as having the requisite readiness for the final revelations. “Readiness” is not connected to someone’s intelligence, dedication, moral worth, status, wealth, background, or anything of that kind, but only whether that person is already exhibiting a strong, intuitive grasp of “gnosis”.
__________
The Illuminati Order:
There are only 6,000 members of the Illuminati: fewer than one in a million in a world population of some seven billion people. In a city like London, there are only eight members. Many people, when they imagine a secret society, picture something along the lines of Freemasonry, with Masonic lodges in every major town and regular meetings involving a large number of people. The Illuminati offer nothing of that kind. Meetings are infrequent. Special locations are selected for small gatherings and these change every year (they are always connected with locations across the world that have played critical and fateful parts in the history of the Illuminati). Many members have to expend a great effort in terms of travel, expense and their time to get to the chosen meeting place. The occasions are highly dramatic and spine tingling, as they must be when great religious mysteries are revealed.
The Illuminati Order is not something you “join” for the sake of joining, not something that exists to give you status or a secret identity to make you feel good about yourself, or to allow you to solve the “puzzle of life” in the manner of an amateur mathematician or a detective. Joining the Illuminati is a transformative experience. Neither money, status, celebrity, fame, prestige, nor any other of the “golden” attributes of our shallow, materialistic and consumerist society can secure a person admission to the Illuminati. Equally, many good and honourable people who have many of the right qualities we look for are also unable to join since they are simply not ready in terms of the criteria we apply.
This means that the Illuminati miss out on many talented people. The Illuminati have always got round this problem in the past by creating new secret societies and orders that are based on many, but not all, of the principles of the Illuminati. These other organisations have less restrictive admission criteria, recruit many more members and evolve in their own way. Although they have an association with the Illuminati, they are not appendages of the Illuminati or puppet organisations.
Freemasonry was the creation of the Illuminati, but it must be emphasised that the Illuminati did not run Freemasonry. A few of the original Grand Masters were members of the Illuminati but because the number of Freemasons rapidly outstripped the total membership of the Illuminati, Freemasonry soon changed in character. “Undesirables” infiltrated it and the Illuminati lost control, with the disastrous consequences that are now all too apparent.
Contemporary Freemasonry is an obscenity, a grotesque insult to the ideals on which it was founded. Whereas the original Freemasons were anti-establishment, determined to work against false religions, arrogant nobles and tyrannical kings, modern Masons are the central pillars of the oppressive regimes they once opposed. Freemasonry has been turned on its head.
The Illuminati have thought long and hard about why Freemasonry failed so spectacularly and became the primary weapon of the Old World Order to maintain its power, wealth and privileges indefinitely. Can something along the lines of the original vision of Freemasonry be reborn, without falling victim to the same dismal fate?
The Illuminati have decided that the time has come for a new attempt, an addition to the historical “Illuminati Network”, one that has learned from all the problems and flaws of the past, one that, most importantly of all, relies on you. This is your chance to be part of the great chain of history, part of the age-old resistance to the Old World Order, part of the great endeavour to build the utopia humanity has always craved. The Old World Order is not vast. Like the Illuminati, it has only about 6,000 members – that’s all that stands between the world and freedom.
The new secret society will be given the simplest and broadest possible name: The Movement. This will be a secret society like no other because you will be responsible for its creation and even its secrets. It will be an internet-based, grassroots movement designed to demonstrate the incredible creativity and brilliance of ordinary people.
It will be based on the concept of “crowdsourcing”: using an army of volunteers, interacting and cooperating with one another, to provide the answer to a problem, or some great enterprise. Wikipedia is a classic example. Crowdsourcing can unleash the power of the people. Men and women from all walks of life and all disciplines can collaborate to solve seemingly intractable problems. More often than not, they pour their hearts, souls and time into solving the problems that fire their imaginations. They show remarkable creativity and innovation. Wondrous, unexpected results can emerge the most powerful alchemy imaginable.
Many people on YouTube spend days and weeks perfecting humorous little projects to entertain their friends. Instead of “having a laugh”, why don’t they put the same energy and passion into changing the world and overthrowing the Power Elite?
Above all else, the Illuminati wish to release the limitless potential of the people in a huge outpouring of breathtaking creativity. And from that process, humanity’s collective divine spark will be liberated and ignited into the most brilliant fire of the human spirit.
The Movement consists of four interrelated elements covering religion, politics, activism and psychology.
1) A New Religion
Imagine a clean slate for religion. No bearded prophets, no holy texts, no brainwashing going back hundreds and thousands of years, no commandments, no saints, no angels, no rituals, no sacraments, no places of worship, no priests and preachers, no traditional practices and observances, no holy days, no popes, no rules regarding diet, clothes or appearance, no prohibitions, no sermons.
How would you go about creating a religion from scratch? It should be a religion that does the following:
a) Wakes up humanity and brings about a spiritual renaissance.
b) Frees humanity from the materialistic, zombie consumer culture of shopping malls.
c) Appeals to theists, deists, gnostics, agnostics and even atheists.
d) Promotes mystery, secrecy and wonder, and provides a transformative experience for its initiates.
It’s up to you to build it. Create the perfect religion with no historical baggage and then bring it alive. Start on the drawing board then invoke crowdsourcing to perfect it. Can you do it? Can you become a new-style prophet of the internet age, without any of the fanaticism and dogmatism of the old breed?
This new religion will be called Illuminism (rather than Illumination). The aim is for it to be so inspiring that it will consign all other religions to oblivion, and will allow agnostics and atheists to participate. For all of its triumphs, science, the bedrock of atheism, is full of holes and contradictions (it’s amazing how many critical flaws in science are glossed over as if they didn’t exist), and, above all, science can’t answer the most basic question of all: what is the meaning of life? This isn’t a scientific question, it’s a philosophical one, and atheists are as interested in it as much as everyone else.
So, can you collaborate with others to produce a religion that will inspire the world and save us all from the horrors of the current dominant religions?
It should be a religion that costs nothing, requires no priests, rabbis, or imams, no churches, mosques, synagogues or temples, no baptisms, no “holy” days; a religion that has no need of “saints” interceding on our behalf, nor of “sacraments” that bestow “grace” upon us, nor ancient texts that we are supposed to take literally, nor fierce prophets ordering us what to do. No one and no organisation stands between you and God. God is within you.
The qualities attributed to Jesus Christ are those possessed by each person if they did but know it. As with Christ, God and man are united in each and every one of us; two natures existing within each person.
Christians are willing to believe this of Christ, but not of ordinary men and women. Gnostics accept it as true of everyone. This radically opposite view makes all the difference in the world.
Christianity or Gnosticism? – God incarnate in one person (Christ), or the divine spark incarnate in everyone? Which offers the most glorious and hopeful vision for humanity? There is no possible doubt. Had Christianity evolved slightly differently (and it had many opportunities to become unrecognisable from the way it turned out), it could have been the Gnostic version of Christianity, with Christ as in Everyman – a shining example to all Gnostics, a model for everyone to emulate, the perfect blend of humanness and the divine spark. (Some Gnostics regarded Christ as a divine messenger sent by the True God to enlighten us. He had a phantom body, they said, rather than a real one because no being from the realm of light would ever fully enter into the Satanic material world. Other Gnostics regarded him as indeed taking on a physical reality so that he could act as the perfect example to everyone of how to escape Satan’s material hell. His life, they said, was about an ordinary man – a carpenter – going on an incredible journey to release his divine spark and become God. He was so successful that billions now worship him as though he were a unique being rather than an exemplar that anyone can emulate.)
The Illuminati, knowing the true identity of Jesus Christ, revile him, but the “image” of Jesus Christ rather than the reality could certainly have been the foundation of great things if it had evolved along Gnostic lines. The archons – the ultimate puppetmasters and agents of the Demiurge – ensured that this did not happen.
Nothing is more important than the idea that God (or a “higher self” to placate atheists) resides within you, because this ensures that no one is alienated from God. He is no longer separate and distant from us, and it gives every person’s life infinite value. It ensures that everyone has the highest self-esteem and self-confidence. Kings of old claimed to be divinely appointed and thus to have the absolute right to dominate everyone else.
Illuminism should teach that we are all divinely appointed and no one has the right to dominate anyone.
Illuminism should promote humanity’s highest aspirations, the feeling of well-being and contentment, the feeling that everyone is precious and to be treated as such.
Illuminism should abolish churches and formal buildings of worship. Religion should return to nature, to the outdoors: to groves and forests, rivers and lakes, mountains and fields, caves and grottoes. It should contain mystery and magic to kindle the human imagination. There should be no power hierarchy.
Ecstasy means standing outside of oneself. Enthusiasm means being possessed or inspired by a god. Inspiration means breathing in the divine essence. These words are all related to the quest for the divine spark and attaining your higher self.
Illuminism should be full of ecstatic experiences, enthusiasm and inspiration.
A long-running joke in The Simpsons is the incredible tedium of the Reverend Lovejoy’s services. The Simpsons, like most Christians, regard religion as a chore that needs to be endured every Sunday. There’s nothing uplifting about it, nothing transcendent.
Religion is supposed to be the core of the mystery of life, and yet for most people it’s something that sends them to sleep. Modern religion is either a bore or leads to the psychopathic fanaticism of suicide bombers. The majority of people these days are numb, “comfortably” numb. Isn’t it time to come out of your numbness, to feel the exhilaration that true religion brings? The world is crying out for a new religion.
Can you create symbols and initiation degrees for Illuminism? Can you create a structure for an underground religion? Can you create secret and mystical ceremonies? Can you create a religion that allows people to feel like gods?

Objective: for Illuminism to replace all established religions.
2) A New Politics
The Meritocracy Party is the political wing of the Illuminati. Meritocracy is the system that will replace the Old World Order’s rancid democracy – government of the people by the Elite for the Elite.
Can you help to improve the meritocratic model? Can you devise a political constitution; a political vision that will astound the world?
The Old World Order’s democracy is accompanied by free market capitalism as its economic implementation – designed to ensure that a small number of people control the vast bulk of the world’s wealth and power. Meritocracy will be based on an entirely new economic system where no one can become disproportionately wealthy. It will rely on the new field of behavioural economics i.e. economics based on human psychology rather than on abstract equations divorced from human behaviour. Many ideas are suggested on the Meritocracy section of the Illuminati’s website. Can you provide new, fresh thinking?
The Venus Project described in Zeitgeist: Addendum is a utopian, transformational vision of society that seeks to leave behind profit-driven capitalist economics. Can you produce something to rival it?

Meritocracy, like Illuminism, is about treating everyone as infinitely precious. Everything should be done to ensure that each and every person is treated with respect and afforded the best possible chance in life. Meritocracy seeks to identify what every individual is good at and passionate about, and actively steer them in the direction where their merits shine the brightest. At the moment, most of us are left to rot. We come out of school, college and university with little sense of what we are best at and what makes us tick. Why? Because the Power Elites couldn’t care less about us and what we do or don’t like and what talents we do or don’t have. All they care about is that we should comply with their system and pose no threat to them.
The basic family unit should be extended to a greater “community” family – where local communities are responsible for ensuring that every child, no matter if it’s from a privileged or dysfunctional family, is given full community support, is nurtured and afforded the fullest opportunity to maximise its potential.
Anyone who supports the current family model is effectively saying that the elite dynastic families, those that comprise the Power Elite, those taking maximum advantage of privilege, should be allowed to dictate the shape and leaders of the future. That can never be right.
Every generation should be as free as possible from the influence of previous generations. Every generation, as far as possible, should start afresh. It is always wrong for financial advantages to be passed on by the rich to their offspring, and simultaneously denied to the offspring of ordinary families.
Life should be a level playing field. Everyone should start from the same starting line. No one should be permitted to rig the game of life in their favour. The Old World Order’s entire game plan is to ensure that they manipulate the system to allow their descendants and them to rule in perpetuity.
Objective: for Meritocracy to replace Democracy.
3) A New Psychology
The great unspoken truth of the world is that it is entirely based on psychology. The current dominant psychological paradigm of the world is the one devised by the Old World Order to legitimise and facilitate their rule. It is a master-slave psychology where everyone is fitted into a power and status hierarchy, and those at the top dominate everyone below. It’s a pyramid structure. An entirely new psychology is needed, one founded on a Round Table where no one dominates anyone else.
The world should be managed according to a psychological paradigm where self-esteem, happiness, aspiration, and personal fulfilment are given primacy, rather than the current economic one where money, materialism and consumerism constitute the dominant ideology of our age. Capitalist economics is a master-slave ideology – those with most capital dominate the enormous number who have little or no capital.
While the masters are human subjects, the slaves are mere objects, dehumanised and depersonalised. Non persons. The Round Table paradigm is about treating everyone as an individual worthy of the highest respect, and where there are no masters and no slaves. The most meritorious rise to the top in society, but they are not driven by the need to dominate others and they do not seek excessive and disproportionate rewards.
Can you flesh out the Round Table psychological paradigm? Instead of favouring the Old World Order, is must be designed to ensure that each and every person is given the maximum opportunity to find personal fulfilment.
The new paradigm should be informed by the well-known psychological models for categorising different types of people such as Myers-Briggs personality types, Enneagrams (deriving from the Ancient Egyptians and Pythagoras), the Four Humours of Hippocrates, Sheldon’s Somatypes, and the Belbin team roles.
More information about Myers-Briggs can be found here: http://
Most members of the Illuminati fall into the Myers-Briggs categories of “INTJ” or “INTP”. Few people appreciate the power of this methodology. Everything can be interpreted according to Myers-Briggs personality types: history, nations, philosophy, advertising, political parties, art, religion.)
This wing of the Movement will be referred to as the “Psy” Faction and its purpose is to bring about the psychological transformation of the world.
The Psy Faction should be concerned with carrying out the programme of Illuminism and Meritocracy: treating us all as priceless individuals and finding exactly what motivates us and what we’re best at.
The Old World Order are the masters of the psychology of the lowest common denominator but we can attain that of a higher truth: the highest common factor. Let’s soar to the top rather than race for the bottom.
Objective: to replace the Old World Order’s master-slave pyramid psychology with Meritocracy’s Round Table psychology.
4) A New Radicalism
In the internet age, how to do you create new forms of radicalism to electrify the world, to motivate the people, to panic the Old World Order, to promote the Movement’s radical, transformative agenda, to outflank the slick election machines of political parties?
The Movement’s radical faction for activists will be known as the “R” Faction. You will be like those brave seekers in The Matrix who choose to take the red pill and challenge the power of the sinister controllers that seek to deceive and enslave us all. As Morpheus says to Neo, “Remember, all I’m offering is the truth. Nothing more.”
It’s time to join the Resistance.
It’s up to you. You can change the world. Are you radical enough?
Objective: for the Movement’s radicals to energise the world with the Movement’s message.
******
The Movement seeks to introduce a new global religion, a new global political system, a new global economic model, a new global psychology, a new global radicalisin short, a New World Order.
The future comes in the shape of a society that resembles that of Star Trek: a meritocracy where technology has brought an end to the traditional economics of the Old World Order. There is no money in Star Trek – no one needs it. There are no super-rich people. There is no mindless celebrity culture and no consumerist mentality.
Each person strives to be personally fulfilled, and society is set up to help everyone achieve their personal goals. There is no religious fanaticism, no people bowing, kneeling, praying and demanding that all the infidels who disagree with them should be consigned to hell.
Isn’t that a future worth striving for? Isn’t that the real human race?
You can help to make it happen. You have the power, the intelligence, the creativity, the energy. You have probably always wanted to do something great, to make a difference. This is your chance. The Movement is not a fixed entity set in stone. It is something that you yourself can shape. You can create it in your image if you have the will, the merit, the ability to charm and persuade others. Your time has come. There are no excuses left.
First step: Make contact with people in your vicinity. Create the seeds of a secret society in your local town.
We recommend that people place a message on Craigslist, Gumtree, Facebook etc.
It could be worded as:
Transforming ourselves and the world – a secret project for seekers. Are you fascinated by the Holy Grail, interested in conspiracy theories and secret societies, disillusioned with conventional religions and governments? Are you seeking a higher truth? I’m looking to meet people who are on quest to improve themselves and the world. If we all do nothing, nothing will change. If we all do something, everything will change. Get in touch if you’re interested.
Or come up with your own message.
In an ideal world, the Movement would spring up in towns and cities all over the world, each “cell” doing its own thing. Eventually different cells could link up and compare their different ways of doing things. Would cells in Texas be different from ones in New England, ones in America be different from ones in Britain, ones in the West be different from ones in the East? The Movement should evolve and grow ever more refined – like base metal being gradually being turned into gold.
This is a grassroots movement. No money is involved. You can be part of changing the world. One day the Old World Order will wake up and realise that they are too late to save themselves. They will discover that the Movement has arisen everywhere, and they are surrounded with no escape routes. Their tyranny and reign of terror will at last be over and humanity can become what it always had it in it to be: the True God’s dazzling reflection.
The Last Bling King by Mike Hockney describes a popular uprising to overthrow the super rich and celebrities. It’s a direct response to Ayn Rand’s notorious and poisonous novel Atlas Shrugged in which the super rich go on strike to force the ordinary people to worship them and give them everything they want without any interference or regulation (precisely the mentality that created the current financial disaster). In The Last Bling King, the ordinary people refuse to do anything on behalf of the super rich and celebrities to show these arrogant monsters once and for all that they have nothing and they are nothing without the cooperation of ordinary men and women. A secret group called The League for the Liberation of Nobodies leads the people’s resistance.
The Millionaires’ Death Club by Mike Hockney provides an insight into the workings of an elite, English, OWO secret society similar to the Skull and Bones in America.
Prohibition A by Mike Hockney describes a brainwashing programme run by the American intelligence services, designed to extend their power to every corner of the world. It involves a secret society that is recruited in a luxury Manhattan nightclub dedicated to exploring the sexual secrets of Dante’s Inferno.
Ideas can be taken from all of these regarding how to shape your own secret society – a benign and altruistic one – to change the world for the better.
The Movement can transform the world. The Movement is the voice of the people, expressed via crowdsourcing. The Power Elite will play no part in it. The Movement will replace the Old World Order with a New World Order based on values that the people have chosen.
The Movement will be a meritocracy. The most effective cells of the Movement will spread virally, while the least effective will wither and die. The Movement is evolution in action. Can the Movement reach an earthly Omega Point where humanity has reached perfect understanding of itself?
Humanity is being held back by the greed and selfishness of the Old World Order. The current “purpose” of the world is to serve their needs. The human race is crying out for something higher, nobler, and more meaningful.
The Movement can deliver the very best of which humanity is capable, and of which you are personally capable. Change yourself, change the world and change the future via the Movement.
And those who prove the most creative and meritorious members of the Movement are the ones who are likely to be invited to join the Illuminati, as was always done in the past with all of the other groups founded by the Illuminati. But it is a process that typically takes years. The Illuminati is in no rush to make mistakes.
This is your chance. Will you take it?

The Movement: The Revolution Will Be Televised by Adam Weishaupt:
The Anti-Elite Series – Book 1/7:
Blurb:
Throughout history, the Illuminati have resisted the Old World Order: the network of elite families that have directed the course of human history since the dawn of civilization. The aim of the Power Elite has always been the same – to maintain themselves in power and privilege in perpetuity, at the expense of everyone else. In the past, they used brute force to subjugate the servile masses. Now they use something far more subtle and effective: psychological manipulation. They know what buttons to push on the ordinary man and woman. They know what makes them tick, what they want and what they fear. Armed with that information, they have the opportunity to rule forever.
Can they be stopped? Yes they can. The Movement is a new organization committed to the overthrow of the Power Elite. The Movement seeks to bring true power to the people, to smash the networks of privilege, nepotism and cronyism that strangle the opportunities of ordinary people.
Discover the philosophy, aims, strategy and tactics of the Movement.
The Revolution WILL be televised. Will you feature in the historic pictures being beamed around the globe? Or will you watch from home in your comfy seat? Your choice.

A Book Review:
“This is one out of a series of excellent books by the Pythagorean Illuminati. If you are at all interested in the greatest mysteries of life and would like to begin changing this world for the betterment of all species you need to read these books. You should also check out the Illuminati’s websitewww.armageddonconspiracy.c
All of the Illuminati’s books explore a myriad of interesting and challenging subjects such as philosophy, mathematics, science, psychology, politics and many others. They bring all these subjects together into nothing less then a grand unified theory of everything. The three authors of these books and the website write in an easy to read style that makes these subjects easier to understand.
The book “The Movement: The Revolution Will Be Televised” explains many of the hows and whys of creating a grassroots social justice movement based on Illumination and Meritocracy. This is a much needed book that everyone needs to read but social justice activists especially need to read it. My wife and I have been teaching self defense to as many of the social justice activists and community members as we can for the last four years. Having been to different protests with these brave and caring people I have seen first hand the threat that activists face from angry right wing racists and other oppressive, fascist groups of people. That is why we started offering self defense training to any community members and activists who wanted to participate. Having been around many of the different groups that are associated with the left I have seen first hand the lack of cohesion between the different groups. These are people that ostensibly have the same goals yet can’t get along with each other long enough to see the goals through. We as social justice activists are constantly bickering with each other over the most minor of issues. We need to see that as long as we keep this nit picking up we will never pose a threat to the elite and that is exactly the way the elite want it. It is even to the point that social justice activists are turning their own supposed allies over to authorities when said ally might get too rowdy at a protest. The authorities don’t even have to do anything anymore. They just let us police ourselves. This is unacceptable and needs to change immediately.
We as people fighting to change this world for the betterment of all need a strategy and political ideology that we can all get behind. We need to not be afraid of upsetting the elite. I thought the point of protesting was to not only upset the elite but bring their whole selfish system down. That is where this book comes in. This book gives any person or group of people that wants to get involved in changing the world specific religious, political, and psychological goals to accomplish this great task. I believe that activists need to unite so we no longer have left wing anarchists arguing with socialists, and socialists bickering with environmentalists, and communists fighting with animal rights activists and so on and on. Meanwhile nothing gets done and impoverished people, the environment, and non-humans throughout the world suffer gravely.
We as social justice activists all have the same basic goals so why don’t we cooperate with each other? Because we don’t have a system that we can all agree on. We are letting our minor differences separate us. Once again this is what the elite want and I don’t doubt that they helped cause this separation. Illumination and Meritocracy give us an ideology to unite behind and a laser like focus to what we need to accomplish. I believe Meritocracy gives us the best opportunity to accomplish all of our goals for for a better, more equal and just society. These books need to be read as soon as possible because our chance for an improved world is rapidly slipping by.” –BG

“Playing World of Warcraft makes me feel godlike. I have ultimate control and can do what I want with few real repercussions. The real world makes me feel impotent … a computer malfunction, a sobbing child, a suddenly dead cellphone battery – the littlest hitch in daily living feels profoundly disempowering.” –Ryan van Cleave, US author and academic
In the gaming world, players receive constant rewards (making them feel high), constant realtime positive feedback and can see themselves making tangible progress (within the game). In real life, they rarely get rewards, pleasurable highs or see any signs of meaningful progress. Real life is drudgery for most people. So which world would you rather inhabit? But if you immerse yourself in hyperreality, you have ensured you will never succeed in reality. So, what’s it be?
Real heroism and real success – or success and heroism based on make-believe. YOUR CHOICE.
The tale of Ryan van Cleave provides a warning to all gamers. His addiction to World of Warcraft (WoW) was so extreme that he became uninterested in real life. He lost his enthusiasm for his wife, children, and his job as an English professor. He played WoW for some 60 hours a week, including before classes and at night while his family slept, leaving him exhausted. He often ate while at the computer – only things that needed one hand, leaving the other free for gaming. He argued constantly with his wife about the excessive time he spent on the computer. He sometimes zoned out of reality and thought he was inside the game.
His wife felt abandoned. “I couldn’t believe that someone could choose a virtual family over a real one,” she said.
Why do many people own dogs? It’s because they can have control over their dog. If you don’t feel in control of your life, you find something that gives you the control you crave. Gamers have total control in their virtual reality. The more out of control they are in real life, the more they retreat to games (just as other addicts retreat to drugs or alcohol or whatever).
Depressingly, the virtual world soon seems to become a lot like the real world. Van Cleave said, “You can never have enough in-game money, enough armour, enough support. You’ve got to keep up with the virtual Joneses.” Keeping up with the VIRTUAL Joneses?!! Is that not the supreme definition of futility?
Needless to say, Van Cleave’s life started to fall apart. His career disintegrated, his marriage was on the rocks and he contemplated suicide. At last, he drew himself back from the abyss, got rid of the game and put his life back on track.
What is “virtual reality”? It’s where people HIDE from real reality. What is the spectacular society? It’s where people watch other people having the spectacular life of which they dream. Why don’t they try to make it happen FOR REAL? There’s no high higher than REAL highs. There’s nothing better than being a real hero, not a fantasy hero. Ironically, all the spectacular people are a crashing disappointment in real life. They don’t have their scriptwriters with them to give then something clever and witty to say. They don’t have their make-up artists with them or the air brushers or digital image enhancers that make them look so good on screen.

The Latest Bulletin from David Icke’s Fantasy World:
“His most staggering revelation is that the Earth and the collective human mind is manipulated from the Moon, which, he says, is not a ‘heavenly body’, but an artificial construct – a gigantic ‘spacecraft’ (probably a hollowed-out ‘planetoid’) – which is home to the extra-terrestrial group that has been manipulating humanity for aeons. He describes what he calls the ‘Moon Matrix’, a fake reality broadcast from the Moon which is decoded by the human body/mind in much the same way as portrayed in the Matrix movie trilogy. The Moon Matrix has ‘hacked’ into the human ‘body-computer’ system, he says, and it is feeding us a manipulated sense of self and the world 24/7.”
******
Are you convinced yet? Has Icke finally nailed it? Will we soon be under attack from the men on the moon, joining the Illuminati lizard kings in their assault on humanity?

The 400:
400 Americans have as much wealth as 150 million Americans. WTF! How is such a thing possible? The 150 million could crush the 400 in a trice. So why don’t they? Why do 150 million people permit themselves to be starved of the resources needed to provide a productive life while 400 selfish individuals are allowed to live like gods?
The 400, to keep their position, have had to wage an astonishingly effective propaganda war to justify their wealth, power, status and position. The reason the 150 million do nothing is that they have been manipulated into thinking that it’s right and proper that the 400 are so rich. They have had a false consciousness constructed for them by the elite. They think that their interests are directly connected to those of the rich when in fact the opposite is true.
The elite say that if there were no rich people in America it would be a communist state under a brutal dictator, with concentration camps for all troublemakers. People would have no freedom. America would be Godless and all of its people soulless and grey, with no hope for the future and at the mercy of the State. The conspiracy theories regarding the “New World Order” promote an identical message (in fact, conspiracy theorists unintentionally work in tandem with the right wing, rich elite since their analysis of the world is often identical – with socialist atheists being blamed for everything).
Of course, the nightmare presented by the elite to terrify the masses is the opposite of the truth. The elite themselves are the nightmare. If all of the assets of the rich were seized, the debts of the world could be paid off and the world could start again. So why don’t we do exactly that? Wasn’t it the elite that brought us to the precipice of financial meltdown? It certainly wasn’t any of the ordinary people who had no decision-making input at all. Therefore shouldn’t the elite be held accountable for the disaster they themselves created? Shouldn’t they pay? Why are the people paying? Why are the people SO STUPID?!
The elite have got it made. Even in the midst of financial catastrophe, they are still paying themselves enormous salaries, with massive pay rises and bonuses, while all the debts they ran up are dumped on the dumb taxpayers. Isn’t that GENIUS?! When you can rob someone blind and they even help you put your hands in their pockets to remove every last cent, you know you are indestructible, that your propaganda is so deeply ingrained that the people can no longer think. The people do not know how to pursue their own self-interest. If they did, they would destroy the super-rich. If the super-rich aren’t responsible for fucking the world then who is? If we don’t know where to attach blame and punishment, how can we ever move forward?
The super-rich have made our world the shit place it is. They control the world and its assets. How can anyone analyse the state of the world and do anything other than conclude that its woes are caused by the rich?
The rich pursue an extremely simple twin-track policy: 1) To selfishly and ruthlessly enrich themselves at every opportunity, and 2) To do everything to ensure that the masses take no action against them. So, their policy is one of aggressive acquisition and one of equally aggressive propaganda to inhibit the masses from pursuing their own self-interest. As long as the masses believe their interests are aligned with those of the elite, they will never challenge the elite. Revolutions occur whenever the people wake up and they realise that their interests are the opposite of those of the elite, hence the elite must be destroyed.
Make no mistake, the world is now in a Revolutionary phase because the elite have committed catastrophic blunders and the masses are beginning to comprehend that the elite are actually incompetent at everything other than feathering their own nests (at which they are geniuses). The rich are not your friends. They are your enemies. They must be overthrown. Meritocrats devoted to the welfare and improvement of the whole population must be in charge. All systems of privilege must be abolished.

Oiling Up:
The UK’s Eton College, the most elite private school in the world, promotes an activity called “oiling up”, designed to develop “a mixture of ambition, self-confidence and bloody-mindedness”. There’s certainly not much “oiling up” going on in the public education sector.
More like “greasing down” – a mixture of zero ambition, low self-esteem, cowardice and submissiveness. Etonians are trained to regard themselves as an elite, and that’s what they become. Most people are trained to be failures, and they do a splendid job of it.

St Pauli Football Club:
Fußball-Club St. Pauli is a German football team based in the St. Pauli quarter of Hamburg and has a close relationship with Celtic Football Club in Glasgow in Scotland. St. Pauli’s flag is the same as the Illuminati’s – the skull and crossbones. The Illuminati are fans of this team because St. Pauli is left wing, punk, anti-corporate and rebellious. The Wikipedia entry on St. Pauli says:
“It was in the mid-1980s that St. Pauli’s transition from a traditional club into a ‘Kult’ club began. The club was also able to turn the location of its ground in the dock area part of town, near Hamburg’s famous Reeperbahn – centre of the city’s nightlife and its red-light district – to its advantage. An alternative fan scene emerged, built around left-leaning politics and the ‘event’ and party atmosphere of the club’s matches. Supporters adopted the skull and crossbones as their own unofficial emblem. St. Pauli became the first team in Germany to officially ban right-wing nationalist activities and displays in its stadium in an era when fascist-inspired football hooliganism threatened the game across Europe. In 1981, the team was averaging crowds of only 1,600 spectators: by the late 1990s they were frequently selling out their entire 20,000-capacity ground.
“It was also during the 1980s when the club first became associated with the Skull and Crossbones symbol. The symbol had always been associated with St Pauli in one way or another. Hamburg fostered the most famous pirate of Germany Klaus Störtebeker and the symbol had been used by the house occupants at Hafenstrasse, but the one who should be credited with bringing the symbol to the club is probably Doc Mabuse, the singer of a Hamburg punk band, and as the legend tells, he first grabbed the flag from a stall while passing drunk through the Dom on his way to the Millerntor-Stadion.
“In the early 1990s, the media in Germany started to work on the Kult-image of the club, focusing on the punk part of the fan-base in TV broadcasts of the matches. By this time, the media also started to establish nicknames like ‘Freibeuter der Liga’ (buccaneers of the league) as well as das Freudenhaus der Liga (‘Brothel of the League’ but Freudenhaus also literally means ‘House of Fun’).”

The Futurists:
Futurism was an art movement founded in 1909 by Italian poet F.T. Marinetti. He called upon artists to embrace kinetic art – art obsessed with the motion inherent in modern technology, such as the car and the plane. Show “courage, audacity and revolt,” he declared, “celebrate a new beauty, the beauty of speed.” The Futurists tried to capture and reflect speed and movement in all of their works. They combined bright, bold colours, sharp angles, Cubist planes and intense lines of force. Rather than show a freeze-frame snapshot, they wanted to somehow fit an entire movie into a single frame; to portray cinematic flux.
The Futurists were great self-publicists. In one stunt (or “happening” as they liked to say), they climbed the bell tower of St Mark’s Basilica in Venice. As the congregation came out, they showered them with propaganda pamphlets advocating demolishing the city, burning the gondolas, and filling “the small, stinking canals with the rubble from the old, collapsing, and leprous palaces.” They described Venice as, “this putrescent city … this bath adorned with jewels for cosmopolitan whores”, with its “stinking little canals … its shady little businesses”. Using megaphones, they bellowed outrageous slogans: “Burn the museums! Drain the canals! Burn the gondolas, rocking chairs for cretins! Kill the moonlight!”
The more they were abused by the crowd, the more the crowd hurled rotten fruit and old spaghetti at them, the more the Futurists defined their happening as a great success. They were opposed to the past, to sentimentality and nostalgia, conservatism and tradition, the infatuation with the past. Shouldn’t humanity be forward looking?
The Futurists were fans of provocative manifestos that proclaimed their position. The movement began with Marinetti’s 1909 Manifesto.
******
The Futurist Manifesto.
We have been up all night, my friends and I, beneath mosque lamps whose brass cupolas are bright as our souls, because like them they were illuminated by the internal glow of electric hearts. And trampling underfoot our native sloth on opulent Persian carpets, we have been discussing right up to the limits of logic and scrawling the paper with demented writing.
Our hearts were filled with an immense pride at feeling ourselves standing quite alone, like lighthouses or like the sentinels in an outpost, facing the army of enemy stars encamped in their celestial bivouacs. Alone with the engineers in the infernal stokeholes of great ships, alone with the black spirits which rage in the belly of rogue locomotives, alone with the drunkards beating their wings against the walls.
Then we were suddenly distracted by the rumbling of huge double decker trams that went leaping by, streaked with light like the villages celebrating their festivals, which the Po in flood suddenly knocks down and uproots, and, in the rapids and eddies of a deluge, drags down to the sea.
Then the silence increased. As we listened to the last faint prayer of the old canal and the crumbling of the bones of the moribund palaces with their green growth of beard, suddenly the hungry automobiles roared beneath our windows.
“Come, my friends!” I said. “Let us go! At last Mythology and the mystic cult of the ideal have been left behind. We are going to be present at the birth of the centaur and we shall soon see the first angels fly! We must break down the gates of life to test the bolts and the padlocks! Let us go! Here is the very first sunrise on earth! Nothing equals the splendour of its red sword which strikes for the first time in our millennial darkness.”
We went up to the three snorting machines to caress their breasts. I lay along mine like a corpse on its bier, but I suddenly revived again beneath the steering wheel – a guillotine knife – which threatened my stomach. A great sweep of madness brought us sharply back to ourselves and drove us through the streets, steep and deep, like dried up torrents. Here and there, unhappy lamps in the windows taught us to despise our mathematical eyes. “Smell,” I exclaimed, “smell is good enough for wild beasts!”
And we hunted, like young lions, death with its black fur dappled with pale crosses, who ran before us in the vast violet sky, palpable and living.
And yet we had no ideal Mistress stretching her form up to the clouds, nor yet a cruel Queen to whom to offer our corpses twisted into the shape of Byzantine rings! No reason to die unless it is the desire to be rid of the too great weight of our courage!
We drove on, crushing beneath our burning wheels, like shirt-collars under the iron, the watchdogs on the steps of the houses.
Death, tamed, went in front of me at each corner offering me his hand nicely, and sometimes lay on the ground with a noise of creaking jaws giving me velvet glances from the bottom of puddles.
“Let us leave good sense behind like a hideous husk and let us hurl ourselves, like fruit spiced with pride, into the immense mouth and breast of the world! Let us feed the unknown, not from despair, but simply to enrich the unfathomable reservoirs of the Absurd!”
As soon as I had said these words, I turned sharply back on my tracks with the mad intoxication of puppies biting their tails, and suddenly there were two cyclists disapproving of me and tottering in front of me like two persuasive but contradictory reasons. Their stupid swaying got in my way. What a bore! Pouah! I stopped short, and in disgust hurled myself – vlan! – head over heels in a ditch.
Oh, maternal ditch, half full of muddy water! A factory gutter! I savoured a mouthful of strengthening muck which recalled the black teat of my Sudanese nurse!
As I raised my body, mud-spattered and smelly, I felt the red-hot poker of joy deliciously pierce my heart. A crowd of fishermen and gouty naturalists crowded terrified around this marvel. With patient and tentative care they raised high enormous grappling irons to fish up my car, like a vast shark that had run aground. It rose slowly leaving in the ditch, like scales, its heavy coachwork of good sense and its upholstery of comfort.
We thought it was dead, my good shark, but I woke it with a single caress of its powerful back, and it was revived running as fast as it could on its fins.
Then with my face covered in good factory mud, covered with metal scratches, useless sweat and celestial grime, amidst the complaint of staid fishermen and angry naturalists, we dictated our first will and testament to all the living men on earth.

MANIFESTO OF FUTURISM.
1. We want to sing the love of danger, the habit of energy and rashness.
2. The essential elements of our poetry will be courage, audacity and revolt.
3. Literature has up to now magnified pensive immobility, ecstasy and slumber. We want to exalt movements of aggression, feverish sleeplessness, the double march, the perilous leap, the slap and the blow with the fist.
4. We declare that the splendour of the world has been enriched by a new beauty: the beauty of speed. A racing automobile with its bonnet adorned with great tubes like serpents with explosive breath … a roaring motor car which seems to run on machine-gun fire, is more beautiful than the Victory of Samothrace.
5. We want to sing the man at the wheel, the ideal axis of which crosses the earth, itself hurled along its orbit.
6. The poet must spend himself with warmth, glamour and prodigality to increase the enthusiastic fervour of the primordial elements.
7. Beauty exists only in struggle. There is no masterpiece that has not an aggressive character. Poetry must be a violent assault on the forces of the unknown, to force them to bow before man.
8. We are on the extreme promontory of the centuries! What is the use of looking behind at the moment when we must open the mysterious shutters of the impossible? Time and Space died yesterday. We are already living in the absolute, since we have already created eternal, omnipresent speed.
9. We want to glorify war – the only cure for the world – militarism, patriotism, the destructive gesture of the anarchists, the beautiful ideas which kill, and contempt for woman.
10. We want to demolish museums and libraries, fight morality, feminism and all opportunist and utilitarian cowardice.
11. We will sing of the great crowds agitated by work, pleasure and revolt; the multi-collared and polyphonic surf of revolutions in modern capitals: the nocturnal vibration of the arsenals and the workshops beneath their violent electric moons: the gluttonous railway stations devouring smoking serpents; factories suspended from the clouds by the thread of their smoke; bridges with the leap of gymnasts flung across the diabolic cutlery of sunny rivers: adventurous steamers sniffing the horizon; great-breasted locomotives, puffing on the rails like enormous steel horses with long tubes for bridle, and the gliding flight of aeroplanes whose propeller sounds like the flapping of a flag and the applause of enthusiastic crowds.
It is in Italy that we are issuing this manifesto of ruinous and incendiary violence, by which we today are founding Futurism, because we want to deliver Italy from its gangrene of professors, archaeologists, tourist guides and antiquaries. Italy has been too long the great second-hand market. We want to get rid of the innumerable museums which cover it with innumerable cemeteries.
Museums, cemeteries! Truly identical in their sinister juxtaposition of bodies that do not know each other. Public dormitories where you sleep side by side for ever with beings you hate or do not know. Reciprocal ferocity of the painters and sculptors who murder each other in the same museum with blows of line and colour. To make a visit once a year, as one goes to see the graves of our dead once a year, that we could allow! We can even imagine placing flowers once a year at the feet of the Gioconda! But to take our sadness, our fragile courage and our anxiety to the museum every day, that we cannot admit! Do you want to poison yourselves?
__________
Do you want to rot?:
What can you find in an old picture except the painful contortions of the artist trying to break uncrossable barriers which obstruct the full expression of his dream?
To admire an old picture is to pour our sensibility into a funeral urn instead of casting it forward with violent spurts of creation and action. Do you want to waste the best part of your strength in a useless admiration of the past, from which you will emerge exhausted, diminished, trampled on?
Indeed daily visits to museums, libraries and academies (those cemeteries of wasted effort, Calvaries of crucified dreams, registers of false starts!) is for artists what prolonged supervision by the parents is for intelligent young men, drunk with their own talent and ambition.
For the dying, for invalids and for prisoners it may be all right. It is, perhaps, some sort of balm for their wounds, the admirable past, at a moment when the future is denied them. But we will have none of it, we, the young, strong and living Futurists!
Let the good incendiaries with charred fingers come! Here they are! Heap up the fire to the shelves of the libraries! Divert the canals to flood the cellars of the museums! Let the glorious canvases swim ashore! Take the picks and hammers! Undermine the foundation of venerable towns!
The oldest among us are not yet thirty years old: we have therefore at least ten years to accomplish our task. When we are forty let younger and stronger men than we throw us in the waste paper basket like useless manuscripts! They will come against us from afar, leaping on the light cadence of their first poems, clutching the air with their predatory fingers and sniffing at the gates of the academies the good scent of our decaying spirits, already promised to the catacombs of the libraries.
But we shall not be there. They will find us at last one winter’s night in the depths of the country in a sad hangar echoing with the notes of the monotonous rain, crouched near our trembling aeroplanes, warming our hands at the wretched fire which our books of today will make when they flame gaily beneath the glittering flight of their pictures. They will crowd around us, panting with anguish and disappointment, and exasperated by our proud indefatigable courage, will hurl themselves forward to kill us, with all the more hatred as their hearts will be drunk with love and admiration for us. And strong healthy Injustice will shine radiantly from their eyes. For art can only be violence, cruelty, injustice.
The oldest among us are not yet thirty, and yet we have already wasted treasures, treasures of strength, love, courage and keen will, hastily, deliriously, without thinking, with all our might, till we are out of breath. Look at us! We are not out of breath, our hearts are not in the least tired. For they are nourished by fire, hatred and speed! Does this surprise you? It is because you do not even remember being alive! Standing on the world’s summit, we launch once more our challenge to the stars!
Your objections? All right! I know them! Of course! We know just what our beautiful false intelligence affirms: “We are only the sum and the prolongation of our ancestors,” it says. Perhaps! All right! What does it matter? But we will not listen! Take care not to repeat those infamous words! Instead, lift up your head! Standing on the world’s summit we launch once again our insolent challenge to the stars!
******
We like the energy of the Futurists, if not many of their sentiments. We also like the tool of the manifesto and the call to action. Where’s your manifesto?

The Meritocracy Party:
THE MERITOCRACY PARTY campaigns to replace democracy with meritocracy. Democracy has become the single biggest obstacle to the rise of the most meritorious. In the USA, no matter your talents, you cannot become President unless you have access to vast wealth to fund your campaign. In Great Britain, social mobility – the opportunity to improve your social standing – has gone into reverse. If you are born into a poor family, you are statistically almost certain to remain poor, regardless of your merits. If your parents are rich, you can start looking forward to a prosperous future, again regardless of your merits.
The Meritocracy Party seeks to remove the link between parental wealth and children’s outcomes in life, and to eradicate nepotism and cronyism, the dual drivers of privilege. The Meritocracy Party is “viral”. You don’t need to join anything, seek anyone’s permission, go to any meetings or pay any money. If you’re broadly in tune with the meritocratic ethos, all you have to do is go out and spread the word.
The world can be changed: conversation by conversation amongst intelligent people.
******
The following material concentrates on the British political system, but the same arguments apply in every country. The idea is to have a Meritocracy Party in every country of the world, all of which are affiliated to create the first global political Party. With global capital relentlessly forcing down costs (people’s pay) while increasing their own profits, only a global political response will suffice. Whatever country you are in, start building the meritocratic future.
The Meritocratic Aims.
The Meritocracy Party aims to replace consumerism with high culture. We wish to place ideas above money, aesthetics above shopping, community over the “I’m all right, Jack” ideology. Private property leads to private lives, dislocated communities, suspicion and competition between neighbours. We are not allies, we are enemies. How do we heal the rifts between us? We have to reduce the importance of the main focus of division between us: lust for money.
The Five Meritocratic Principles.
1) NO NEPOTISM
It’s not who your parents are, it’s who YOU are.
2) NO CRONYISM
It’s not what others can do for you, it’s what YOU can do.
3) NO DISCRIMINATION
Sex, race, religion, age, background are irrelevant. Talent is everything.
4) EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES
You start from the same point as everyone else, and you go as far as your talents take you.
5) REWARDING MERIT
The highest rewards for the highest achievers.
Goals.
1) To implement the five Meritocratic Principles.
2) To abolish the monarchy since it contradicts the first Meritocratic Principle. In a monarchy, the only thing that matter is the identity of your parents. In a meritocracy, your parents are irrelevant. The advent of meritocracy is accompanied by the automatic abolition of the monarchy. No meritocrat would seek the ‘permission’ of a monarch to govern.
3) To abolish the House of Lords (the House of Cronyism), which contradicts the second Meritocratic Principle since it’s the product of patronage. In a properly constituted meritocratic system, there is no requirement for a second House.
4) To abolish Party Politics. Political parties are irrelevant in a meritocratic system. Parliament will be populated entirely by independent, meritocratic MPs with no set political affiliations (other than their commitment to meritocracy).
5) Each independent MP is selected on the basis of their merit relating to their field of expertise. So, the Chancellor of the Exchequer is selected from amongst practising economists (and will be elected only by other economists). The Secretary of State for Health will be someone who works in the health field (and is elected only by health workers); the Secretary for Defence will be from the armed forces; the Foreign Secretary a serving official in the Foreign Office; the Secretary of State for Education a serving teacher/headmaster/
6) The Prime Minister will be elected by the MPs from amongst their number. Every five years, there will be a general election in which every MP has to seek the endorsement of their voters, or be replaced.
7) To abolish Cabinet Collective Responsibility. The principle that people should promote views with which they privately disagree is absurd and ipso facto brings politicians into disrepute. Why haven’t they resigned if they disagree with a policy? How can they defend a position that they themselves don’t believe in? If they publicly support a policy they privately reject, they are hypocrites.
8) Critiques of government policy will be provided by select committees of MPs. Special committees comprising scientists and philosophers may also be used, chosen because of their critical-thinking abilities and their expertise in challenging assumptions. Committees of artists, entrepreneurs and designers may also be called upon. Pressure groups will be given a prominent voice too since meritocracy welcomes close scrutiny.
9) To abolish the ‘moralising’ approach to politics (what’s ‘right’ and what’s ‘wrong’ – the politics of principle) in favour of the scientific method (what works and what doesn’t – the politics of pragmatism).
10) To increase Inheritance Tax to 100%. No one should be able to posthumously transfer an advantage to another person of their choosing. The state should acquire all of the assets of the deceased and should reinvest them to advance the public good, particularly via education.
11) Education is the bedrock of merit, and should be accorded the highest importance in the meritocratic state. The current education system is a demonstrable failure and should be overhauled in every respect. Our education system is designed to produce shoppers (these being what capitalist democracies require to sustain their economic model). True education is the opposite of shopping. It liberates the mind, not the credit card.
12) To promote the ideas of the most radical, freethinking, independently minded philosophers e.g. Nietzsche, Baudrillard, Rousseau, Diogenes, Camus, the Situationist International.
13) To provide community-based alternatives to the family (based, for example, on the Kibbutz model) so that if a family fails, its members can be nurtured in a different, constructive and productive environment of psychological and educational well-being.

The Decline of Social Mobility:
The last few years have seen a marked decline in social mobility in the UK, accompanied by an equally steep rise in the number of the super-rich. The two trends are of course connected. Social mobility is directly proportional to the extent to which ‘markets’ (in the widest sense) are unrigged (read meritocratic markets). Social mobility declines when cronyism and nepotism are allowed to flourish. Cronyism and nepotism (drivers of rigged markets) allow the gilded few to pay themselves whatever they like (since there are no meritocratic mechanisms to increase competition and make inappropriate payments impossible). Hence we see the emergence of an increasingly powerful class of super rich – the extreme beneficiaries of cronyism and nepotism.
Meritocracy is the antidote.
__________
The Incompetence of Privileged Institutions:
“Probably the battle of Waterloo was won on the playing-fields of Eton, but the opening battles of all subsequent wars have been lost there.”–George Orwell
“Success has always been the greatest liar.”–Nietzsche
“One must push what is collapsing.”–Nietzsche
All empires fall. Success creates complacency. Empires become arrogant. They lose the ability to criticise themselves, to see their inevitable flaws. They believe their own propaganda. The same is true of institutions. They are inept at self-renewal, of re-energising themselves. They are never associated with radical change. How telling is Orwell’s remark? – the very success of Eton becomes the cause of subsequent calamity.
If we wish to avoid the disaster of privileged institutions that have grown fat and tired, we must promote ferocious competition that pushes over anything that carries too much weight. Meritocracy is the mechanism. It’s a permanent challenge to privilege; the sword of Damocles hanging over the bloated, the smug, those wallowing in their own imagined success. The greater the competition, the greater the merit of the winners.
In the UK, a few institutions have become untouchable, and the nation has stagnated as a consequence. The British never achieve anything great and inspirational. Privilege kills talent and vision. It seeks only to maintain itself in its decadent comfort.
There should be no sacred cows. Survival is not compulsory. Meritocracy will sweep away the incompetent institutions that are holding back the nation and its people.
__________
The Charity Con:
In a nation of appallingly selfish people who’d do anything to get ahead, there’s an absolute need for TV charity shows like Children in Need. People who spend 364.5 days a year contemplating property prices, how they can get their children into the best schools at the expense of other children, and who they can shaft at work to get a promotion, need their half a day a year when they can pretend to be interested in the welfare of others. Pretend to be human, perhaps.
Charity events are the obscene means by which the uncharitable masses worship their shameless pretence of altruism. Such events are playgrounds for nauseating extraverts to inflict themselves like the worst bullies on hordes of introverts, forcing them to have ‘fun’.
Vain, egomaniacal celebrities are permitted to feign that they have some interest in the lives of those less fortunate (as if!). And it’s so good for their media profile, of course. Their publicists and agents never tire of telling them to get their faces in front of the dumb public, and these are the opportunities par excellence. And did you see the sales rocket of all those bands that took part in Live Aid? You can’t manufacture ‘selling’ events as good as big charity shows (and isn’t that the real purpose of charity?) Even debutantes (or whatever it is they call themselves nowadays), get in on the act with their swanky charity balls – the places where you must be seen if you’re anyone. God only knows what any of these events has to do with charity.
Next year, keep your collection cans and fancy dress costumes. Go out to Africa and actually do something charitable, or face the fact that you’re totally selfish, and a hypocrite into the bargain. Anything that’s worthwhile should be funded by the State. If it’s not worthwhile, it shouldn’t be funded at all. So what’s the point of charity?
__________
Unacceptable:
It’s simply unacceptable in the 21st century for people to invoke ancient prophets and gurus. Although we proclaim Pythagoras to be a monumental genius, the fact remains that humanity has mathematical tools available now that he could only have dreamt of. The past geniuses have brought us where we are today, but where we are today is far more advanced than anything that has ever gone before. You are anti-evolutionary – retarded – if you turn to any ancient religious beliefs and regard them as better, wiser and more useful than mathematics, science and philosophy. That includes all people who look to Buddhism and Hinduism. Ontological mathematics has made all religions redundant. It has transformed religion from Mythos into Logos.
Reason is now the name of the game, not prayer, faith, meditation, revelation and mysticism. There is no longer any excuse at all for holding silly, irrational beliefs. Ontological mathematics has bridged the gap between atheistic scientific materialism on the one hand, and religion and spirituality on the other. Math explains the whole thing … rationally!!! This is the Age of Logos. Get off your knees. Uncross your legs. Stop praying and meditating and start thinking and reasoning. You are supremely unenlightened if you look to ancient beliefs that were in circulation thousands of years before Europe underwent the Enlightenment, when the grip of Christianity at last started to be released. Why abandon the nonsense of Abrahamism, only to embrace the equal nonsense of Karmism?
******
No Excuses:
If you believe in Hinduism or Buddhism, don’t kid yourself that you’re vastly superior to, and more rational than, Abrahamists. You’re as hostile to reason, logic and knowledge as they are, and every bit as mired in superstition, credulousness, faith, mysticism, revelation and Mythos.
Given the nihilism of atheistic scientific materialism, people had an excuse for looking to something to provide them with spiritual sustenance. But that excuse no longer exists. Illuminism and ontological mathematics allow scientific materialism and empiricism, which is incompatible with religion and spirituality, to be converted into scientific idealism and rationalism, which is fully compatible with religion and spirituality, and fully explains the eternal, dimensionless, immaterial, mental reality that underlies the observable world and gives it its meaning and purpose. With scientific idealism and rationalism, mind, not matter, becomes the basis of reality. All material things are transformed into mental things, and atheism becomes an absurd superstition wholly divorced from the facts of existence. It’s math, which lies at the core of science, that destroys materialism since mathematics is not material.
******
Either/Or:
You either keep on believing ancient old shit, or you wake up and try to understand the staggering amount of knowledge humanity has amassed in the last four hundred years. Anyone who spends any time at all on any Mythos religious system whatsoever has turned their back on human progress, and effectively declared useless all modern knowledge. Why are you going backwards rather than forwards, to unreason rather than reason? Why are you going back to ignorance and superstition? The answer is simple … you don’t understand modern knowledge whereas you’re perfectly happy with ancient mumbo jumbo and hocus pocus.You’re addicted to fantasy and illusion and despise reason and reality. Why would anyone seeking to be “enlightened”, study Buddhism or Hinduism rather than Gödel’s incompleteness theorems? Er, because Gödel’s incompleteness theorems are fucking hard, whereas any dumb ass can get some kind of hold on Buddhism or Hinduism. Talk about dumbing dowm and the race to the bottom! What’s the average IQ of the kind of person who studies Gödel’s incompleteness theorems compared with the average IQ of the type of person who gets involved with Abrahamism or Karmism? That tells you the whole story. Stupid people study stupid things, and smart people study smart things.
******
Scientific Materialism:
Even science has serious difficulties. Science can be regarded as mathematics allied to and modified by experiments. Mathematics reflects rationalism, while experiments reflect empiricism. Rationalism and empiricism are incommensurate. Science is thus the philosophy of empiricism (and materialism) imposed on rationalist mathematics, which has nothing at all to do with experiments. Science refuses to address this contradiction. It’s driven by pragmatism, not Truth. Science seeks to understand the world, and yet, bizarrely, can’t understand itself, and makes no attempt to do so. But science, for all of its lack of intellectual integrity, has applied mathematics to the world and been fantastically successful. Remove math from science and you would have nothing but augury. Why have so few failed to realise that it’s when you apply numbers (math) that you get to grips with reality, and when you use words, emotions, faith, mysticism, and so on, you get all the crazy religions and ideas that have defaced human history.
******
The Truth:
Words and numbers are incommensurate. Reality is based on either words or numbers. It can’t be a bit based on words, and a bit based on numbers, since numbers and words, like Cartesian mind and matter, have no basis for interaction. You have a very simple choice to make. Will you attempt to understand reality verbally, numerically, or via an incoherent combination of the two? There can only be one answer to existence, and if you choose the wrong means to address reality, you have failed automatically. So, we ask you a very simple question: Was Pythagoras right that all things are numbers, or will you contradict him and claim that all things are words? Your choice. Make the wrong choice and you have cut yourself off from Truth and are living in a fantasy world.
Conventional religion and spirituality are all about emotional and mystical words. Philosophy is about the careful examination of the meaning of words and what they imply about reality. Science is a mixture of philosophy and numbers, and math is all about numbers.
There can be no Cartesian dualism or pluralism. You can’t mix, match and combine incommensurates. There must be a monism, and the only coherent monism is the monism of numbers.
Scientific experiments are an artificial add-on to mathematics. They have the effect of force-fitting mathematics to the observable world and thus producing something that seems “real” (to the senses). However, they also have the disastrous effect of annihilating all mathematics that is not compatible with sensory observations. The whole point of ontological mathematics is to address both observable AND unobservable reality, and to unify them in a single system. “Dimensionless” mathematics concerns immaterial Fourier frequency (mental) functions outside space and time, while “dimensional” mathematics concerns Fourier spacetime (material) functions. The two interact via Fourier mathematics. And thus the whole of reality is explained. It’s all in the math. Do the math.
******
The Exam:
You’re in an exam – the exam of existence. Do you know how to pass it? To whom will you turn for advice? This is the strangest exam of all. You are presented with a blank sheet, and you yourself must provide both the questions and the answers. How well you do this will determine whether you pass or fail. Most people ask the wrong questions and give the wrong answers.
Know Thyself
Get Real
Keep it Real
This is the Dawn of the Coming Race, the Supermen, the Hyper-humans.
We are the Illuminati and this has been our gospel.

The Cult of the Professional (Charlatan/Bullshitter):
“We live in a world where there is more and more information, and less and less meaning.” –Baudrillard
In his book The Cult of the Amateur, Andrew Keen lamented the opportunity the internet has afforded any Tom, Dick or Harry to place their thoughts, movies, music tracks, stories etc in the public arena. As more people access this free material, fewer pay the traditional content producers (newspapers, magazines, book publishers, film studios, record companies, TV and radio companies). Where will it all end? The collapse of civilisation? That appears to be Keen’s hypothesis.
Keen is in no doubt that the amateur efforts that abound on the internet are rubbish. The commercial material, on the other hand, is held up as something of the highest calibre. Who is this guy kidding? He obviously hasn’t watched many Hollywood movies, or much TV, or actually read any newspapers or magazines, or listened to the junk on the radio. Almost all commercial content is garbage to a quite extraordinary degree. And don’t forget – people are actually being paid, often ridiculously well, to produce it.
The vast majority of people in the media got their jobs through nepotism and cronyism. They’re not professional paragons: rather they’re professional charlatans, bullshitters and ass lickers. They have no talent at all, apart from managing to get someone to pay them for producing junk. Keen is a snob, a slavish worshipper of the myth of the “legitimate”, “professional” expert when virtually no one, outside the world of academics (and scientists in particular), is worthy of that description.
The Independent used to be a good newspaper, until it became a viewspaper. Why should anyone pay to read the views of some commentator in The Independent when he could just as easily freely read the blog of some person on the internet who may be much funnier, more controversial, more radical, more interesting, more intelligent – and a better writer? Newspaper commentators are simply bloggers who get paid: grandiose, self-deluded bloggers in other words.
Keen argues that the conventional producers of paid content are the gatekeepers to some Promised Land of standards, taste, and high quality. They filter good from bad, true from false. Yeah, right! All they do is promote their own agendas. Their “good” is nothing more than a reflection of their personal tastes. Their opinion that something is “good” doesn’t render it so. Equally, their ideas of true and false are simply perspectives from the viewpoints that prove most advantageous to them.
Try reading Nietzsche if you want the “truth”. Try reading Baudrillard. The last person you should go to is one of the chattering classes, one of the media gatekeepers.
Another obvious point to which Keen is astoundingly oblivious is that the internet merely reflects the culture that the “gatekeepers” created. The gatekeepers were the Frankensteins who gave life to the monster. If the gatekeepers had engineered an entirely different culture, one that lauds all the values that Keen claims to admire, then the internet would be a paradise.
That it isn’t is thanks to no one but the gatekeepers who pursued a relentless agenda of producing dumbed down content to chase ratings and higher profits. It’s old-fashioned justice that their monster has turned on them, and they surely deserve to perish. They chose to worship the Lowest Common Denominator, and they have reaped their moronic harvest.
It’s time to kill the spectacle. It’s time for the Revolution.
