I like how you are specific when naming conspirators.
Being an anglo many of these traditions(or conspiracies) like the Rosicrucians and Masons are closely linked with freeing our anglo societies from the dictatorship of the priesthood of the Vatican ending 700 years of inquisition and instituting freedom of speech (De facto in the CommonWealth and de jure in the USA) while I can see that they may have just wanted to replace them as a new kind of dictator the Philosopher Kings I have a hard time accepting their goal was enslavement of humanity when the places that they have had the most influence are the most free in the world.
Interested in your interpretation on this incongruency.
secret (masonic style) societies Are there any overlaps? I don't know, but its a thought.Hey @openparadigm thank you for taking the time to read and comment on my post. Yes I do agree, even to this day the vast majority of clandestine masonic activity (certainly within the lower degrees orders) is often unsung charity work. Like you say I believe the initial intent was good .. but equally any organisation that is able to garner the power and influence that the Masons have (much like the wider world) will always attract those with their own agenda. I believe there are certain (fallen) members amongst many Masonic orders and they use them to pick out certain (connected/powerful or intelligent/ruthless) individuals .. if they have trait that may be of interest to those fallen they can be filtered into another (official or unofficial) order, that's not to say that they're straight into an order with a malintent .. but again there will be fallen members monitoring them, this process can be continued and then if the person passes the initiation they are filtered nearer to the inner core where wider agenda begins to be revealed. But yes in answer to your question I don't believe it to be a masonic plot to claim dominion over the world. Interestingly, even the Catholics have their own
The Vatican has a proven history of openly seeking world domination no need to search for a hidden conspiracy there.
