This is in some places a fun post, so try not to take some sections too seriously. You will know when you get to them
Its also an overly long post, much too long for most email servers.
Lets start off with AI
This Tweet caught my eye
https://twitter.com/justin_hart/status/1648124187268222976?s=20
Of course, the ELite see themselves as Gods on Earth. Their AI creations will be in their image. As Straussian’s they accept their right to present us with the Noble Lie and so will their AI. The AI does not have a conscience, its just a bundle of code . But it can be programmed with lies and told that that this is truth.
The biggest danger is for people to accept the lie that AI is Intelligent, and can be an arbiter of truth.
AI hype is beginning to resemble the web3 and metaverse hype trains before it. No matter where you look on Twitter, you see folks making bold claims about the recent advances in AI.
Three sad realities of growing a Twitter following converge in the case of trends like metaverse in 2021, web3 in 2022, and AI in 2023:
1. Writing about trending topics works.
2. Making readers feel “I can’t believe that!” drives things to go viral.
3. Companies building on the latest trend are eager to advertise with large accounts.
This means that content creators have every incentive - from growth to engagement and monetization - to be as excited and uncritical as possible. As a result, every progression in AI is heralded as the next big thing.
The latest dubious claim from this hype train is that AutoGPT signals a turn to Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). This is usually accompanied by ominous pictures of Mr. Smith from The Matrix.
But, the fact is: GPT-4 and AutoGPT aren’t close to artificial general intelligence (AGI).
GPT-4 is dumb. It’s like the person at work who always sounds good, but never actually guides the company toward good decisions. GPT-4 sounds really smart. But it’s just a large language model (LLM). Its faculty with language and code has pulled the veil over everyone’s eyes.
GPT-4 can write beautifully for you. It can reconstruct what you want to say in one-hundred different ways. It can search the web and piece together intelligence from different parts of the web much faster than any human.
But once you ask GPT-4 to make hard decisions for you, it loses any ability to actually analyze the situation. That’s because it’s just a language model. It lacks a logical-semantic underneath to understand what it’s writing.
Auto-GPT is even dumber. For the 99.9% of people who can’t get off the GPT-4 waitlist, it runs on GPT-3.5. So it’s already at a disadvantage. On top of that, it’s just a large language model that can run other large language models. Its ability to give itself tasks has fooled everyone into thinking it’s a breakthrough.
GPT-4 and Auto-GPT have many limitations as artificial intelligence systems. They do not have a deep or broad understanding of the meaning or context of what they generate. They do not have a robust or flexible ability to reason, learn, or adapt beyond their training data. They do not have a clear or reliable way to explain their outputs or correct their mistakes. They do not have a direct or effective way to interact with the real world or achieve any goals.
These are some of the essential features of artificial general intelligence (AGI). AGI is the ability of a machine to perform any intellectual task that a human can do. AGI is not just a bigger or better version of GPT-4 or Auto-GPT. AGI is a fundamentally different kind of intelligence that requires new approaches and paradigms.
So don’t fall for the hype that we have “baby AGI.” Most of that is actually just semantic confusion, because one of the AutoGPT projects is named BabyAGI (made by my inimitable Twitter friend Yohei Inakajima).
These projects are a great step towards AGI, but they are not AGI.

Dumb AI as currently used is a useful tool. There are those who would like you to believe it is something more, mostly for Nefarious purposes. It is deception to get you to believe in AI as a Divine Arbiter of Truth so they can control you.
Religion like the attempts to get you to believe in the power and righteousness of AI is also an instrument of control created by the Ruling Elite. Today we have many religions, Theism, Gnosticism, Politics, Nationalism, Militarism, Capitalism, Socialism, Scientism, Wokism, Transhumanism, Elitism, etc
The beauty of if is we can chose more than 1. Heck, we can even identify as a different Gender if we want. How is that for Freedom?
Beliefs and Faith come from Brain. Science is also a domain of faith. Beliefs are based on incomplete evidence. We believe in the absence of complete evidence, which is the case for many things. Most things in life are uncertain, especially those beyond our own senses. Heck, we still dont know what Gravity is exactly beyond its effect, and if you think Immunologists know everything about the immune system, think again. Evolution can explain how a chicken evolves but not how the first egg came to be.
How many of us really understand many of the things we believe in? We take much on faith, and mostly question that which we don’t wish to believe. If someone popular preaches our faith we follow them or subscribe, and we repeat what they say or wrote to support our belief.
Its easy to question that which we don’t wish to believe, its not as easy to question that which you like to believe is true. Many of those who rightly questioned the COVID Narrative have never questioned 9/11. Those who rightly question the validity of Vaccine Science Safety do not question Climate Fraud Science that is funded and supported by the same groups.
If someone new like that Carpenter fellow with his 12 followers 2000 years ago tries to preach something new we ignore him until he gets nailed to the cross or something and someone with a big following turns him into a religion.
It is well known that people often resist changing their beliefs when directly challenged, especially when these beliefs are central to their identity. In some cases, exposure to counterevidence may even increase a person’s confidence that his or her cherished beliefs are true
One model of belief maintenance holds that when confronted with counterevidence, people experience negative emotions borne of conflict between the perceived importance of their existing beliefs and the uncertainty created by the new information.
In an effort to reduce these negative emotions, people may begin to think in ways that minimize the impact of the challenging evidence: discounting its source, forming counterarguments, socially validating their original attitude, or selectively avoiding the new information. The degree to which such rationalization occurs depends upon several factors, but the personal significance of the challenged belief appears to be crucial. Specifically, beliefs that relate to one’s social identity are likely to be more difficult to change
Based on this model, predictions can be made about the neural systems that govern resistance to belief change. First, resistance to evidence may entail disengagement from external reality and increased inward focus. The brain’s default mode network including posterior and anterior midline structures and the lateral inferior parietal lobes, appears to support these psychological processes.
Second, if resistance to belief change is partly motivated by negative emotion, having one’s beliefs contradicted may produce activity in associated regions of the brain, such as the amygdala, the insular cortex, and other structures involved in emotion regulation.
Generally, political statements showed the smallest degree of belief change.

So clearly they need better ways to change your beliefs than reason. Don’t worry, they are looking for them.
The non-invasive practice is called trancranial magnetic stimulation, and has can be used to treat depression.
However, researchers have now found that by targeting the part of the brain that deals with threats, they can temporarily change people's beliefs and views.
Amongst those who received the strong magnetic dose, 32.8 per cent fewer had decreased beliefs in God, angels and heaven compared to the control group who received no dose.
And 25.8 per cent more of those who had received TMS had a more positive response to the immigrant who had written a negative letter about their country.
Dr Keise Izuma, of the authors of the study from the University of York, said: "As expected, we found that when we experimentally turned down the posterior medial frontal cortex, people were less inclined to reach for comforting religious ideas despite having been reminded of death."

None of this is new really. Here is some of what Aldous Huxley said over 60 years ago.
Aldous Huxley Speech-1962
https://publicintelligence.net/aldous-huxley-1962-u-c-berkeley-speech-on-the-ultimate-revolution/
Today we are faced, I think, with the approach of what may be called the ultimate revolution, the final revolution, where man can act directly on the mind-body of his fellows........
We are in process of developing a whole series of techniques which will enable the controlling oligarchy who have always existed and presumably will always exist to get people to love their servitude.......
Pavlov after all made some extremely profound observations both on animals and on human beings. And he found among other things that conditioning techniques applied to animals or humans in a state either of psychological or physical stress sank in so to say, very deeply into the mind-body of the creature, and were extremely difficult to get rid of. That they seemed to be embedded more deeply than other forms of conditioning.....
Dr. William Seargent’s “Battle for the Mind “ points out how intuitively some of the great religious teachers/leaders of the past hit on the Pavlovian method, he speaks specifically of Wesley’s method of producing conversions which were essentially based on the technique of heightening psychological stress to the limit by talking about hellfire and so making people extremely vulnerable to suggestion and then suddenly releasing this stress by offering hopes of heaven....
You’ll find for example that the experienced hypnotist will tell one that the number of people, the percentage of people who can be hypnotized with the utmost facility (snaps), just like that. is about 20%, and about a corresponding number at the other end of the scale are very, very difficult or almost impossible to hypnotize.
But in between lies a large mass of people who can with more or less difficulty be hypnotized, that they can gradually be if you work hard enough at it be got into the hypnotic state, and in the same way the same sort of figures crop up again, for example in relation to the administration of placebos.
If everybody were extremely unsuggestible organized society would be quite impossible, and if everybody were extremely suggestible then a dictatorship would be absolutely inevitable.
I mean it’s very fortunate that we have people who are moderately suggestible in the majority and who therefore preserve us from dictatorship but do permit organized society to be formed.
But, once given the fact that there are these 20% of highly suggestible people, it becomes quite clear that this is a matter of enormous political importance, for example, any demagogue who is able to get hold of a large number of these 20% of suggestible people and to organize them is really in a position to overthrow any government in any country.
If there are 20% of the people who really can be suggested into believing almost anything, then we have to take extremely careful steps into prevent the rise of demagogues who will drive them on into extreme positions then organize them into very, very dangerous armies, private armies which may overthrow the government.
There is for example, the pharmacological method, this is one of the things I talked about in Brave New World. I invented a hypothetical drug called SOMA, which of course could not exist as it stood there because it was simultaneously a stimulant, a narcotic, and a hallucinogen, which seems unlikely in one substance. But the point is, if you applied several different substances you could get almost all these results even now,
But then, very briefly, let me speak about one of the more recent developments in the sphere of neurology, about the implantation of electrodes in the brain. This of course has been done in the large scale in animals and in a few cases its been done in the cases of the hopelessly insane. And anybody who has watched the behavior of rats with electrodes placed in different centers must come away from this experience with the most extraordinary doubts about what on Earth is in store for us if this is got a hold of by a dictator.
The whole picture of the absolute control of the drives is terrifying, and in the few cases in which this has been done with very sick human beings, The effects are evidently very remarkable too, I was talking last summer in England to Grey Walter, who is the most eminent exponent of the EEG technique in England, and he was telling me that he’s seen hopeless inmates at asylums with these things in their heads, and these people were suffering from uncontrollable depression, and they had these electrodes inserted into the pleasure center in their brain, however when they felt too bad, they just pressed a button on the battery in their pocket and he said the results were fantastic, the mouth pointing down would suddenly turn up and they’d feel very cheerful and happy. So there again one sees the most extraordinary revolutionary techniques, which are now available to us.
I mean we need to think about the problems with automation and more profoundly the problems, which may arise with these new techniques, which may contribute to this ultimate revolution. Our business is to be aware of what is happening, and then to use our imagination to see what might happen, how this might be abused, and then if possible to see that the enormous powers which we now possess thanks to these scientific and technological advances to be used for the benefit of human beings and not for their degradation.
Of course, the easiest way to change cultural beliefs is get to the kids early. As Bertrand Russell once wrote, if you can get them young enough you can make them believe snow is black. This also requires breaking up the family structure, requiring Mothers to Work, Divorce, keeping the Parents ignorant of what they are teaching, etc. Indeed, much of this has been proceeding for the last 50 years, seemingly at an accelerated pace.
The idea that the schools could have promoted something like puberty blockers (chemical castration) without parental consent or even with it would have been met with laughter 50 years ago, or if they thought you were serious you would be told sternly that would set off a Revolution unless the government stopped it.
To speed up change of cultural beliefs they might resort to culling us older folks who are a great reservoir of cultural memory and at the same time begin erasing true history and facts from the internet and libraries. Indeed, are seeing this now. COVID and those mitigation measures, and treatments did a great job of culling the elderly holding Western Cultural Beliefs, and no doubt reducing the life expectancy of middle age adults who might start questioning the official narrative.
I was about 40 before I started questioning what I had been taught , and the process accelerated at Warp Speed with 9/11. Some start earlier, some later, many never, but it takes time and the facts still need to be preserved. Take away time and access and the ability to get answers to your questioning of the official narratives -once you awaken- is limited.
History Commons went down 18 months ago and the internet archive in the the process of being disappeared along with the wayback machine. Many books and online articles/papers are simply not available any longer and Google and Duck Duck Go make it almost impossible to find anything not sanctioned by the powers that be if you did not know it existed.
In any event, Christianity was one of their most successful creations. It was actually a good thing for all in my opinion, although I walked away from the church decades ago. Mostly laziness and a victim of cultural brainwashing buying into the Science vs Religion False Dichotomy. However, the more I learn of Science, especially the Life Sciences I don’t think much of life was possible without some Creator involved.
I still don’t believe in the dogma, although there was most likely a dissident Jewish man named Jesus , allegedly a Carpenter, who rebelled against Hillel’s tyrannical Rabbis and Money Changers that earned him a death sentence. I do believe his teachings from the New Testament helped people to be better humans. Of course, now there are sects that seem to focus more on the Old Testament, which has weakened the religions value in my opinion.
At the time Christianity was promoted labor was a desired commodity and population growth was slow due to high mortality rates so stable families (monogamy) were required to sustain the population, while giving people a moral code to follow in anticipation of an eternal afterlife in paradise should they follow it and hell if they did not, as such the Rulers did not require a large police force.
The drawback was the Church became so strong that even the Ruling Elite (Kings and Nobles) were expected to follow in kind or risky excommunication. After a 1000 years of that they decided to try and break the Church and Christianity by bringing on the Renaissance and then the Reformation and on to the Enlightenment. Ending the Dark Ages and War on Science. Yay.
Of course by now one has to suspect if our history is not just an inversion of reality. Were the Dark Ages really so Dark? Was the Church really anti-science?
Maybe I will take a stab at answering that last one later in the post
This leads me to a new film out there called Nefarious.
I cant see it from Taiwan but I read some reviews and read part of Deaces book. The book is straight out Gnostic with a healthy dose of American Mythology
As far as the movie goes from what I understand this Evil Archon named Nefarious has taken over Edwards body and made him do bad things leading to Edward facing the electric chair and then Pleading Insanity to get a pardon. James is the psychiatrist trying to assess if his insanity is legitimate and Nefarious explains how it is to James.
Nepharious is an Archon serving the Demi-Urge (Satan-the Master) after their Fall. They serve as gatekeepers to prevent spirits from ascending to the divine aeons. So the story goes.
Nefarious in the book claims the founding of America was their greatest threat and was the offspring of of the Renaissance and Reformation which were also threats to the EviL Demons that we call ELite today, because they were such wonderful things for humanity.
Of course, no mention that the Founding Fathers were the ELites of the Colonies who had wealth and many were slave owners. Many were Free Masons which at the time infiltrated by a new group called the Illuminati that was also formed in 1776.
John Robinson exposed the Conspiracy in his book in 1798 following the French Revolution unlike the American Revolution -which did not succeed
Of course, not all Free Masons were Illuminati, no doubt only a few of the higher degree Masons. I doubt this is true today as they no longer need to hide behind such organizations.
The Colonial Elite did a great job with the Constitution. Not because of any Altruism on their part I don’t think, but because they were not sure their experiment would work and they wanted to keep Government weak to protect their property and wealth. After some time the Elite found they could control government , so slowly at first and then more rapidly they expanded its power as it became less of a threat to them and became an instrument to expand their own wealth and power. Today the US Government is the Roman Church on Steroids. It can literally do anything and may soon attain God-like powers.
Lets get back to Archons depicted by Nefarious
In the classical Gnostic myth the archons play several interlocking roles. They reside in the seven visible stars of the Ptolemean cosmos. They assist in the creation of Adam’s psychic and physical bodies. They rape and impreg- nate Eve. They mold primordial matter into an earthly prison for Adam, Eve, and their progeny. They limit the days of humans and blind the human couple from their divine nature.
In certain texts, archons send cataclysms to Earth to eradicate the elect (the Gnostics, or Knowers). And they serve as gatekeepers to prevent spirits from ascending to the divine aeons, often casting them back into the realm of rebirth.
The most literal reception of the archons can be found in contemporary conspiracy literature. Archons are tailor made for conspiratorial hermeneutics, and especially well for what Michael Barkun calls superconspiracies. According to Barkun:
[Superconspiracies] are conspiratorial constructs in which multiple conspiracies are believed to be linked together hierarchically.... Event and systemic conspiracies are joined in complex ways, so that conspiracies come to be nested within one another. At the summit of the conspiratorial hierarchy is a distant but all-powerful evil force manipulating lesser conspiratorial actors. These master conspirators are almost always groups both invisible and operating in society (emphasis mine).
Archons, as rulers of the cosmos whose power extends to the very core of matter, religion, and politics, are a symbol tailormade for master conspirators. Contemporary theorists imagine the archons as “master conspirators” whose diabolical plans link together subordinate conspiracies such as genetic alteration of humans, manipulation of the world economy, and the Iraq War.
John Lamb Lash, David Icke, and Carol A. Reimer have translated the archons of the classical Gnostic myth into super- conspiracy. All three authors draw from familiar conspiracy tropes (ancient aliens, genetic manipulation, secret bloodlines, brainwashing, and stigmatized knowledge) to reimagine the actions of archons from prehistory into the present.
https://hcommons.org/deposits/objects/hc:34026/datastreams/CONTENT/content
That has it about right. Guys like David Icke and creators of “Nefarious “ are Controlled Opposition, putting out ideas that help protect the ELite from scrutiny and conditioning the peoples minds to associate Evil with Demons , and not wealthy powerful people without a stick of empathy and who lust for power and control
And they are great for discrediting Conspiracies of all kind, even legitimate ones, since the word conjures up images of Ickes Lizard Brains
In any event, as mentioned Gnostic archons in classical Gnostic myth are nefarious beings that rule the cosmos, mold primordial matter into a prison for Adam and Eve, and blind people as to their divine nature. These archons send cataclysms to earth and serve as celestial gatekeepers that keep the divine light trapped in their creation.
David Icke claims that archons live in Saturn (Hell). They are energetic entities—not organic-biological—which allows them to live within a gaseous planet. Just as humans require organic-biological food to survive, energetic entities like the archons need energetic food.
Humans are energy generators—the ideal food source. Human emotions and thought both, in Icke’s telling, produce energetic phenomena. To receive nourishment the archons must either provoke low-vibrational emotional responses (fear, terror, anxiety, worry) or ensure humans focus their minds on the archons. As Icke puts it, “where attention goes, energy flows.”
The archons hacked into human DNA to limit our range of perceptions.
Next, the archons genetically modified our brains so that the people of Earth would more closely resemble the archons. So humans today are more inclined towards fear, aggression, obsessive-compulsive behavior, and lust—all emotional states that generate energy-food for the archons—as a result of the pernicious influence of the reptilian brainstem.
Ok David.😂
In the book and movie the Nefarious Archon invades and takes over a human host which then does its bidding. Apparently the host has to be receptive to the takeover by virtue of some flaw or weakness in character. Thus all Evil on this world is a result of direct interventions by Archons
The real Archons are actually human, they are ELites, not living on Saturn or Evil Spirits but humans like you and I , only smarter, richer and without Empathy.
But the ELite would love it for more people to believe that the Evil being committed today is because of Evil Demonic Spirits and that they are are easily recognized and in any event you can combat this by praying to a Savior, or at least be willing to suffer through it in expectation of living an eternity in Heaven.
This does not threaten the ELite. What does threaten them is if people recognize the source of this EviL and do something about it.
Especially those Evil ones who whisper sweet nothings in your ear and do the opposite of what they promise because of the Evil Democrats or Evil Republicans
Buts lets talk about Saturn because the ELite do have a fascination with the Occult
Watching the late Jordan Maxwell in the Cult of Saturn is an interesting
Darn, thats gone.
This is a shorter version
Some Notes from the Video.
The black square, dark sun symbolizes Saturn.
Saturns color is black
Black robe represent Priesthood of Saturn.
The Saturnalian Brotherhood. God of Darkness, Chaos and Destruction
Canaanite religion worshipped Saturn whose symbol was the six pointed Star of David (Saturn)
Saturn was referred to as El
EL as in ELite
Rings of Saturn
We Wear Rings on finger, ears,
Ring on Head-Crown-corona
Son (Sun) is our risen savior. If it doesn’t come up we are dead
Saturn is the God of Banking
Judge is dressed in black (Saturn) sits on a bench in court. Bench is the Latin word for Bank. Tennis is played on a court and players use a “racket”. Judge rules for the Bank. Someone is going to pay
Criminal Justice System is a System to where the criminals bring justice.
Egyptians made contract (Ark of contract aka Covenant) with the Gods from Sirius (called the Dog Star). Dog spelled backward is God
Solomon
Sol =Sun Latin
om = Sun Hindu
On=city of sun in Egypt
That’s why you turn lights “on” by turning the switch up
Temple of Solomon with 2 pillars represented sex
Always two phallic pillars or monuments
Washington Monument (Phallic) connects to Oval Office (ovaries)
Temple = House of God (House of El)
Horus-12 steps
Hours = Horus
Sun takes 12 steps (hours) to rise and set
Seeing Eye= Horus
Satan is 666. Saturn is the 6th planet, its symbol is a 6-pointed star, it supposedly has hexagon weather formations, and Saturn-day, the 6th day
Saturn is the Lord of the Rings. In astrotheology, Saturn is Satan, the cult of EL. The word ELite is derive from the Cult of EL, as his ELectricity , TempLE , and EviL
End Notes
If any of that interests you watch the video😉
Beware of people named ELon I guess
Interestingly, on March 21, 2020 Saturn began its first leg of a three-year journey into Aquarius, which is an air sign. This indicates that some challenges may come through anything spread through the atmosphere, including respiratory infections and airborne diseases.
Agenda 2030 picked an interesting year. Seems a Comet will enter Saturns orbit by 2031. A deadline for our ELites to welcome the new arrival?
https://www.science.org/content/article/massive-comet-fly-saturn-2031
Enough of Archons and Saturn.
What do out ELite really want beyond becoming Gods on Earth (Transhumanism)? Less of Us for one
Author of Happy Birth Day, Planet Earth, The Revelation: A Message of Hope for the New Millennium, and The Book of Co-Creation, Barbara Marx Hubbard predicted “personal extinction”for people who will not get with the New Age program.
“A Quantum Transformation is the time of selection of what evolves from what devolves. The species known as self-centered humanity will become extinct. The species known as whole-centered humanity will evolve.”
At the time of the quantum transformation, “humans capable of cooperating to self-transcend will do so”; “elements” who maintain “the illusion of separation will become extinct … just as Cro-Magnon and Neanderthal humans became extinct.”
Barbara Marx Hubbard warns that if the selection comes, it will be violent: “Either the good will prevail, connect, link, and magnetize the majority of humanity to act with love for life everlasting, or the violent selection of the self-centered will begin.”
For her Satan “is part of the selection process … that will bring forth the self-elected from the self-rejected, so that … only those connected to the whole survive.”
Robert Muller says that persons “who hold contrary beliefs” to those favored in the “next phase of evolution” will disappear ; opponents of the UN and other “anti-evolutionary, blind, self-serving people” will have their souls “parked in a special corral of the universe for having been retarding forces, true aberrations in the evolution and ascent of humanity.”
David Spangler says that those not attuned to New Age energy “have no place in the new world”;they will be sent “where the patterns of the old still hold sway” for their “highest good.”
The leaders of the New Age movement argue that the earth is overpopulated, and that radical measures are needed to defuse the “population bomb.”
In the 1940s – when world population was less than half what it is today – Alice Bailey said, “certain physical restrictions should be imposed, because it is now evident that beyond a certain point the planet cannot support humanity.”
In 1997, Gorbachev said, “for a certain transitional period families should limit themselves to one child;” once the world’s population is stabilized, the former Communist premier would consider upping our ration to two children per family.
In a November 1991 interview with The UNESCO Courier, Jacques-Yves Cousteau said: “World population must be stabilized and to do that we must eliminate 350,000 people per day.
That works out to 127,750,000 people per year, and 1.27 billion people to “eliminate” per decade.
Media magnate Ted Turner is more patient; he will allow 80 to 100 years to reduce the population of the Earth from 6 billion to 2 billion by a global “voluntary” one-child policy.
In a later interview he added,
“I think the population should be closer to when we had indigenous populations, back before the advent of farming. Fifteen thousand years ago, there was somewhere between 40 and 100 million people. But Paul and Anne Ehrlich have convinced me that if we’re going to have a modern infrastructure, with commercial airlines and interstate highways around the world, we’re going to need about two billion people to support it.”
In 1998 the eco-feminist theologian Rosemary Radford Ruether told a national conference of Call To Action, a liberal Catholic organization, how many people must go onto the compost pile: “We must return to the population level of 1930″– about 2 billion people.
David Spangler points out some dangers of the New Age worldview: “a desire for power, the tyranny of the group over the individual ...and “unwillingness to say that anything is out of place or wrong.”
He also warns, “The new age movement in North America has much in common with its counterpart in Europe between the world wars.
Taken together, the works of Robert Muller, Barbara Marx Hubbard, Neale Donald Walsch, Alice Bailey, David Spangler, and Helena Blavatsky are a revival of the Gnostic heresy, a comprehensive anti-Gospel, and a point-by-point inversion of Christian morality and doctrine.
The adepts of the New Age have provided an arsenal full of smoking guns, all pointed in the same direction.
I had started a post on Gnosticism from which the idea of Archons originated but got a bit bewildered by how many interpretations there are , so I dropped it as I got distracted by other things. It might be worth looking at it again though
Tackling Gnosticism
This probably wont be for everyone, I will get into some history that might not be familiar or accepted . Remember though, history is but a hypothesis. Much of history recorded was written by those paid by the ELite at the time. And each generations is taught the history the ELite through their control of government, education and funding of historical research . Its the history they wish us to believe, either the Official Version or one of the sanctioned Revisionist Histories. History changes as needed to fit the current narrative, and Revisionist Histories help with the Hegelian Evolution of History to serve the ELites Agenda
As Orwell said those who control the present, control the past and those who control the past control the future.
Gnosticism was a heresy of Christianity which derived from what Gershom Scholem called “Jewish Gnosticism,” an early form of Jewish mysticism that led to the development of the Kabbalah.
Although the cosmologies of the various Gnostics sects differed, their central doctrine was based on a reversed interpretation fo the Bible, where God was evil, and the devil, who led man to the Tree of Knowledge, was good.
That said, there are many variants of Gnosticism
Tess tackles it here although it wasn’t quite what I was looking for.
She interviewed a Gnostic (Cyd Ropp) after John Vedemore expressed some distaste with Gnostics.
Cyd Ropp apparently follows a benign form of Gnosticism, so you might be interested or not.
Below is my interpretation of her book on the Gnostic Gospels.
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/332871404_Gnostic_Gospel_Illuminated_PDF_version
There is an unknowable all powerful God the Father.
He created a Son (Sun) so that we may see him.
The Son (Sun) created divine aeons (angels) who collectively became the ALL on Saturn whose spark is illuminated in Saturns rings
Saturn is also known as EL, which means Lord in Semitic languages
One of the aeons (angels) called Logos thought he was superior to the others and decided to leave and join the Son (Sun). He was rejected and fell in exile on Jupiter.
Wishing to be closer to the Son he created Earth and gave himself a physical form. He then created life as we know it including an imitation of his physical form which locked the spark of the divine. These creatures known as men where known as the deficiency. Living among men Logos grew tired and decided to rejoin the All and ask forgiveness. He ascended in his spiritual form to Saturn
When the All learned what he had done they were horrified that such a deficiency was present so close to the Son, their Father.
They decided to rectify the problem by making Humans with their divine spark with special powers and sending them to Earth to infiltrate and then eradicate the deficiency. They populated the earth gradually with their special powers which are captured in todays Mythology. When their numbers were adequate they went to War with the deficiency, but there were many and over time these divine humans lost their sense of purpose and succumbed to the temptations offered by the deficient, and with their special powers, physical and intellectual, became the ELite of their communities while waging war against other ELite led communities
They mated with deficient humans but soon recognized that only the divine females could have offspring that carried the divine spark (in their DNA). They realized they were in danger of extinction via dilution if they did not take collective measures against this.
They created exclusive secret societies and religions by which way they could identify as members of the divine humans, also known as the Chosen People. In this way they avoided dilution, but to avoid unhealthy mutation by inbreeding, they also introduced fresh genetic material with some divine females mating with select deficient males
The Son of the Father, and Father of the divine All, watched from above with displeasure. The divine humans had lost their purpose and were not much better than the deficients they were meant to eradicate and replace, aside from being smarter and stronger.
So the Son gave himself a human form and a name, and came to Earth with a plan. He decided to let all humans, deficient or otherwise, believe they could ascend to paradise if they followed his instructions to be gentle as lambs while giving the ELite at the time a plan to herd the lambs into Religions worshipping him until they could develop the tools to improve the deficient humans to an acceptable level.
In return, the Son promised the ELite that their ELite descendants who finished the job to his liking would be returned to the ALL after he returned a Second Time to help Reset and Build Back Better a New World Order
The job of assembling the stories in which to create the first religion called Christianity was completed, and the rest followed as per history
Although it was unclear at the time what “improve the deficient humans to an acceptable level” actually meant, they knew the answer to this would only come with time and improved knowledge. They also knew controlling the population of the deficient was essential until they could be upgraded , as was keeping the purity of their divine and illuminated bloodlines and knowledge of the PLAN
Note-In this version of Gnosticism the archons are divine humans with the divine spark of God in their DNA like the ELite while the rest of us a deficient humans, lacking a divine spark and with inferior souls, no better than beasts
Flash forward to today. The key project for the ELite known as the Human Genome Project illuminated for the ELite a way to “improve the deficient humans to an acceptable level”. Each individuals DNA would need to be analyzed and compared to the ELites DNA. This would show the divine sequences which distinguished between the divine humans and deficient humans.
Then it would be a matter of genetically upgrading the deficients DNA as well as some of the more diluted divine Humans , if possible, or eradicating them if not possible (more likely). Another option was enhancing the deficient humans using machines and AI created by the divine ELite
It is not know how far along they are on determining what sequences need to be upgraded or eliminated , what needs to be enhanced, and what will be acceptable
Generic Gnosticism
Gnostics promoted concepts of radical dualism that govern the universe. This was polarized as the soul/spark against the flesh, light against darkness.
'Gnosticism' is a vague term which encompasses sects closely associated with Christianity and much larger movements contemporary with, but unrelated to, Christianity.
These different Gnostic groups all had widely divergent views. Much as there were many 'Christianities' in the first few centuries AD, there were many Gnosticisms, including such famous sects as Manicheism.
Different Gnostic groups were influenced by Jewish and Christian doctrine, as well as by Platonic philosophy, but they shared some essential beliefs.
Crudely put, the Gnostics conceived of the universe as divided into two realms: the present visible world, of matter, dark and evil, and a spiritual world of light and good.
The Gnostics believed themselves to be chosen ones, with particles of the divinity trapped in the matter of their bodies.
Gnosticism is derived from the Greek word gnosis, which means ‘knowledge’, and expresses the fact that adherents of Gnosticism believed that they had privileged access to hidden knowledge about the divine.
The Gnostics believed themselves to be chosen ones, with particles of the divinity trapped in the matter of their bodies. These divine sparks could, with special knowledge and practices, be freed to rejoin their celestial home.
In 1945, a collection of over 40 Coptic texts, ranging in likely date, was found at Nag Hammadi in Upper Egypt.
These texts included books purporting to preserve Jesus’s secret teachings, as well as gospels supposedly written by his disciples, by his twin brother Thomas and by his brother James. These texts, in addition to other related texts found elsewhere, are collectively called the 'Gnostic Gospels'.
The Gnostic Gospels were theologically problematic, mentioning multiple gods and the creation of an evil world.

Other interpretations of Gnosticism
Creationism
God, who does not create, originally emanated archons (powers), like the light from the sun, seen, but not physical.
One of the archons, Sophia ("wisdom"), in a moment of weakness, produced the Demi-Urge, who then created a physical universe, including humans. In philosophical thought, logos ("word") was the principle of rationality that connected the highest god to the material world.
Some systems claimed a mythic "pre-Adam-and-Eve" before their manifestation as humans in the Garden of Eden. In Gnostic understanding, the fall occurred as the result of physical creation. In keeping with the "oneness" of the eternal God, Gnostics promoted the idea of androgyny or the union of gender.
[this is the basis for the gender confusion being created today]
After the fall, the logos, the pre-existent Christ, came to earth in human appearance to teach humanity how to return to this original androgyny and reunite with God. According to them, God sent Christ to restore the original cosmos. As the divine spark within humans had fallen asleep, it did not remember its origins. Humans had to be awakened to the presence of this piece of god within them; a concept mirroring Zen Buddhism. When this is accomplished, the rule of archons would end.
[basically humans would need to become Gods, which is also referred to as the Omega Point or Singularity]

Yuval Noah Hariri, the WEF Philosopher states it explicitly. They plan on Upgrading humans into Gods. By humans he does not mean you. You are the Deficients, or as he calls us, the Useless Class

According to Albert Pike in Morals and Dogma the Book of Revelation is a Kabbalistic Book. The purpose of Free Masonry is to fulfill the Book of Revelation (and thus bring on the End Times). Book of Revelation was the last book accepted into the Christian Canon in 400. One of the suspected authors (Corinthus) was a Gnostic
Anyways, the Gnosticism that Johnny V is presumably wary of is the belief some of humanity has higher quality souls due to being made out of the divine spark of God, and the rest are the Imitators of the Deficiency
From Eric Voegelin
Gnosticism is the belief that the souls are divine sparks imprisoned in imperfect physical bodies, due to the machinations of a lesser and evil god who created the world. This evil god is identified with the creator of the Genesis and the Hebrew Bible. The material world and the body are prisons separated from the divine realm, from which humans must escape through the ascent of various levels.
This is possible through the acquisition of secret knowledge reserved for the elect. This special revelation or gnosis (knowledge) was supposedly disclosed by Jesus to his dearest disciples, and it can be found in the Gnostic books, deliberately written in cryptic language.
The acquisition of the secrets necessary for the salvation of the soul in many cases implied a radical asceticism and corporal sacrifice.
A unifying thread in all of these Gnostic texts was the assumption that there is not one God who rules heaven and earth, having created the world as good and according to His will. Instead, the message was that this world was not good, and not even close to being good. The physical world was instead brought about by an inferior deity who falsely and pridefully believed himself to be the one true God.
In Voegelin’s essay, “The Murder of God”: The aim of a 2nd Coming predicted in the Book of Revelations in gnosticism [as in Marx, Nietzsche, and Heidegger] is the destruction of the order of being, which is experienced as defective and unjust, and through man’s creative power to replace it with a perfect and just order.
[In other words, Build Back Better ]
In the 18th Century Jacob Frank who was born in Ukraine claimed to come to rid the world of the Talmud and Jewish law, a law he regarded as oppressive. Frank rejected the Talmud in favor of the Kabbalistic Zohar.
Frank had a Gnostic philosophy wherein there was a “true God” whose existence was hidden by a “false God”. This “true God” could allegedly only be revealed through a total destruction of the social and religious structures created by the “false God”
Frank claimed instead that the Redemption would be fulfilled through a reversal of the Torah, affirming that for the “Good Lord” to appear, it would be necessary to precipitate chaos. As summarized by Aba Eban, Frank “taught a strange idea that God would not send a Messiah until the world had become as evil as it could possibly be. So, said Frank, it was his duty as a follower of Sabbetai Zevi to bring about a time of pure evil.”
Frank taught a doctrine of the “holiness of sin,” claiming that with the arrival of the messiah, everything was permitted. Among the more radical Frankists, explains Gershom Scholem, there developed a “veritable mythology of nihilism,” in which the new messianic dispensation “entailed a complete reversal of values, symbolized by the change of the thirty-six prohibitions of the Torah… into positive commands.”
Like the ancient Gnostics, they therefore indulged in orgiastic and sexually promiscuous rites.]

Back to Voegelin
Modern thought allows, the conjuring of the pretended superman (Übermensch). Gnosis desires dominion over being; in order to seize control of being the gnostic constructs his system.
The closure against divine reality—variously effected through “ will to power”, appears as philosophy by means of systems construction, the prohibition of pertinent questions, and the murder of God is refelected in isms like Marxism, Freudianism, existentialism, progressivism, utopianism, revolutionary activism, fascism, communism, national socialism, etc.
Modern Gnosticism takes the form of speculating on the meaning of history construed as a closed process manipulated by the revolutionary elite—the few who understand the path, process, and goal of history as its moves from stage to stage toward some sort of final perfect realm (Hegel, Marx, Comte, National Socialism).
In order to create a new world the givenness of the order of being must be obliterated requires the decapitation of being—the murder of God.
Hegel plays the game of dialectic—the unfolding of consciousness to an end of history understood as the merging of the human logos and divine Logos
“The nature of a thing cannot be changed; whoever tries to ‘alter’ its nature destroys the thing. Man cannot transform himself into a superman; the attempt to create a superman is an attempt to murder man”
To Hegel,. . .the thinker suppresses an essential element of reality in order to be able to construct an image of man, or society, or history to suit his desires....
The death of God is the cardinal issue of gnosis, both ancient and modern. From Hegel to Nietzsche it is the great theme of gnostic speculation, and Protestant theology has been plagued by it ever since Hegel’s time.
When the gnostic movement reached its revolutionary phase its nature could no longer be recognized. The movements deriving from Marx and Bakunin, the early activities of Lenin, Sorel’s myth of violence, the intellectual movement of neo-positivism, the communist, fascist, and national-socialist revolutions—that put an end to the freedom of Western society by replacing it with Techno-Gnostic Fascistic Scientism which will lead to Transhumanism and the Death of Man
The world is no longer the well-ordered cosmos, in which Hellenic man felt at home; nor is it the Judaeo-Christian world that God created and found good. Gnostic man no longer wishes to perceive in admiration the intrinsic order of the cosmos. For him the world has become a prison from which he wants to escape
For a Deeper Dive Here is James Lindsay giving his take
Some notes here. I meant to do more and try to give this a go as a stand alone post but just haven’t got around to it
Hermeticism (optimistic)-gnosis is the divine aspect of man is trapped in material world and seek to transform man into divine and set us free
Gnosticism (pessismistic)-man is imprisoned in material world and only set free in death
Religion retooled itself and became parasite of other religions (Christianity, Judaism, etc)
Marxism, Critical Marxism, Woke have gnosis and plan to transform world to free themselves from those who don’t, even if they must destroy it first
Starting with convincing us Reality is an illusion
Yahweh is prison architect of Eden. Gnosis is to free man to become God

Science vs Religion (A False Dichotomy)
The fundamental dialectic that has shaped the formation of modern Western societies, according to the hidden dictates of the Illuminati, has been the false dichotomy between science and religion, serving to prepare the way for the acceptance of its supposed synthesis: a one-world religion based on the occult.
Thus Illuminati defined the Enlightenment with their emphasis on “reason,” juxtaposing it with “superstition,” which served as a euphemism for Christianity, despite the paradox that they themselves were secretly working rituals with the intent of producing phenomena typically associated with superstition.
As noted by David F. Noble in The Religion of Technology, contrary to assumptions that science and religion are incompatible, science today has achieved almost cultlike status, largely through its unacknowledged heritage in religious thinking.
As explained by Noble: What we experience today is neither new nor odd but, rather, a continuation of a thousand-year-old Western tradition in which the advance of the useful arts (now called science) was inspired by and grounded upon religious expectation.
The cult of science as founded in religion which was rooted not in orthodox religious tradition (monotheism) but in mysticism and the occult. The early sciences were rooted in alchemy, astrology and magic
While there are contradictions that have been revealed in the Bible account due to scientific discoveries, these conflicts don’t deny the existence of a divine creator, they just question the validity of the claim that the Bible is his word. The Catholic church always recognized that the original scriptures were written according to the understanding of the people at the time they were written and were not to be taken literally
Indeed science has long been compatible with the belief in the existence of God, and in fact flourished alongside religion, as in the example of Islamic civilization, which is the true source of the Western scientific tradition.
However, much of the tradition of science in Western culture has been pseudo-science, not because of its association with religion, but rather because of its sources in mysticism and the occult.
Although occult philosophies like Neoplatonism and Hermeticism, and their related studies of astrology and alchemy, could often disguise themselves as scientific pursuits, they were nevertheless traditions that were historically associated with the worship of the powers of darkness. Like the Gnosticism from which they derive, this cult that spread venerated Lucifer or some equivalent as the true god, and the basis of these theologies ultimately involved the practice of black magic.
Proponents of the False Dichotomy of Science vs Religion like to mention Galileo
The case of Galileo has been distorted by those seeking to discredit the church
Galileo supported Copernicus sun centered theory. Copernicus was a Catholic church official who had published his work in 1543 before Galileo without a negative response. When the Church adopted the solar based Gregorian calendar in 1586 it based its calculations on the Copernicus astronomical tables.
Galileo got caught up in the politics of the counterreformation which sought to limit individuals interpretations of the scriptures spiritual and moral meanings. The church had long accepted that the bible was not literally true regarding the natural world, written as it was at a time before it was natural world was understood so as to be understood by the people of the time, so reinterpretation of the scriptures was permitted in this limited sense
The church sided with Galileo officially in 1616 and overlooking the Inquisitions injunction against further discussion/writing simply advised him not to assert it was true. It was after all only a hypothesis unable to be tested and proven with scientific tools available at the time , and also so as not to confuse lay Catholics who were dealing with the turmoil of the reformation.
In fact, Galileo and Copernician theory were not proven until 1729 by James Bradley measuring the aberration of light. Galileos tidal evidence in his hypothesis was actually proven false in some respects, so fell short of proof necessary - scientifically speaking.
In any event when Galileo came to Pope Urban VIII about his plans for a new book the Pope asked him to treat his idea as a hypothesis and to acknowledge the Churchs authority in theological interpretation. Galileo agreed. Case closed
Unfortunately Galileo did not uphold his word and actually mocked the Popes position referring to him in a fictitious dialogue as Simplicio (simpleton). The pope was displeased and had him arrested in 1633 for going against his instructions.
He actually was able to continue working while under house arrest and publish a book on motion under the force of gravity before his death in 1642.
Hermeticism
Much of what follows is taken from this book
Hermeticism is a religious and philosophical tradition based primarily on pseudepigraphical writings attributed to a supposed ancient Egyptian sage name Hermes Trismegistus (“ Thrice Great”).
Many Hermetic texts were lost to Western culture during the Middle Ages but rediscovered in Byzantine copies and then popularized in Italy during the Renaissance. In the mid-1400s the Hermetica manuscript and the 14 books called Corpus Hermeticum were brought in 1460 to the court of Cosimo de Medici, ruler of Florence.
Quick note in the Medicis. They were a great Italian banking family during the Renaissance and members of the ELite and portrayed favorably by the ELite controlled Netflix Series
Cosimo later requested the Latin translation by Marsilio Ficino, a member of the de Medici’s court. The Hermetic texts were initially believed to have been genuine ancient Egyptian texts. However the classical scholar Isaac Casaubon (1559–1614) successfully argued that some, mainly those dealing with philosophy, betrayed too recent a vocabulary.
The Hermetica provided a seminal impetus in the development of Renaissance thought and culture, having a profound impact on alchemy and modern magic as well as influencing philosophers such as Giordano Bruno and Ficino’s student Pico della Mirandola.
The tradition claims descent from a prisca theologia, a doctrine which affirms that a single, true theology exists which is present in all religions and was given by God to man in antiquity.
However, as historian Jean Seznec has shown, in Survival of the Pagan Gods: the Mythological Tradition and Its Place in Renaissance Humanism and Art, the foundational text of the Renaissance period was the Picatrix, a Hermetic work attributed to the Sabians. Influenced by the Picatrix, Ficino wrote extensively about the techniques through the use of amulets, talismans, unguents and elixirs, whereby planetary powers might be invoked by the principles of Hermetic analogy.
Botticelli’s three works, being some of the most recognized Renaissance paintings, the Minerva and the Centaur, The Birth of Venus, and the Primavera, commissioned for Lorenzo de Medici, all dealt with occult themes and represent the magical practice of drawing down planetary influences into images.
Cosimo’s grandson, Lorenzo de Medici, also known as “Lorenzo the Magnificent,” was responsible for an enormous amount of arts patronage, encouraging the commission of works from Florence’s leading artists.
Including Leonardo da Vinci, Botticelli, and Michelangelo, their works often featured pagan themes that challenged the tolerance of the Church. Likewise, Michelangelo too was influenced by the anthropomorphism of the Kabbalah, painting “God” creating Adam in the Sistine Chapel, which is actually a depiction of the “Ancient of Days.”
While the Medici struggled for decades against the growing opposition to their paganizing program, they finally exacted their revenge by installing one of their own in the Vatican, the son of Lorenzo de Medici, who became Pope Leo X in 1513 AD.
But Leo X, who had been educated by Ficino and Pico della Mirandola, exhibited a profligacy that was characteristically un-Christian. Leo X’s propensity for extravagant expenditure finally depleted the Vatican’s finances and he turned to selling indulgences to raise funds. It was mainly due to these excesses that Martin Luther was inspired to post his Ninety-Nine Theses in 1517, which set off the Protestant Reformation.
[So the Medici Banking Dynasty had a role in the Reformation which weakened the Church and allowed for many sects of Christianity to flourish, some of whom attached more importance to the Old Testament than the Church]
Ignatius of Loyola founded the Jesuits in 1534 who spearheaded the Counter-Reformation. Loyola had been a member of a heretical sect known as the Alumbrados, meaning “Illuminated,” who are thought to be a precursor to the Bavarian Illuminati of the eighteenth century.
With the Protestant Reformation, Catholic authorities became much more ready to suspect heresy in any new ideas, including those of Renaissance humanism.
Post-Reformation Rosicrucians
The Rosicrucians derived their name from the red cross of the Templars. Though the Templars were officially disbanded in 1314, their traditions took on a new guise under the Order of the Garter, inspired by King Arthur and the Round Table. The “red cross” of the Templars is also a “rose cross.” The rose is also the “Rose of Sharon,” from the Song of Solomon, being a Kabbalistic symbol, referred to in the Zohar as symbolizing the “Jewish congregation.”
[The Templars were most likely the Wests first international bankers as they needed to fund the Crusaders in the Middle East and no doubt the source of the Occult thinking that spread in the West beginning with the Renaissance
https://bigthink.com/the-past/knights-templar-crusades-finance/]
The alternate symbol is the lily, which came to represent the royal house of France, while rose became the heraldic symbol of the two competing houses involved in the War of the Roses.
The Rosicrucians announced themselves to the world with the publication of the notorious Rosicrucian Manifestos. The first of these, purportedly written by Johann Valentin Andreae (1586–1654), was the Fama Frateritatis, an allegorical history of the Rosicrucians, which appeared in 1614, and followed by a second tract a year later.
TheFama was part of a larger Protestant treatise titled, The Universal and General Reformation of the Whole Wide World; together with theFama Fraternatis of the Laudable Fraternity of the Rosy Cross, Written to All the Learned and the Rulers of Europe.
The primary conduit for the thought of Isaac Luria to Rosicrucianism was Jocob Boehme a German Christian mystic and theologian, whose writings caused a great scandal.
Considered the foremost rabbi and Jewish mystic in the community of Safed in Ottoman Palestine, Luria is regarded as the father of Lurianic Kabbalah, also referred to as the New Kabbalah. Ultimately, Luria developed a notion of historical progress which became the basis of Western conceptions of history when it was inherited by the philosophers of the Enlightenment.
Luria’s theory of evolution was based on viewing God as having initially been an unknown treasure and, wanting to be known, He created man as an “other” of Himself. At the outset, this “other,” or man, was unaware that he was God. Therefore, history is the progress of God, or man, coming to know himself. As he progressed intellectually, man would abandon various false beliefs in God as something outside of himself, until he would arrive at the discovery that he himself is God.
The Manifestos claimed to represent a combination of “Magia, Cabala, and Alchymia,” and purported to issue from a secret, “invisible” fraternity of “initiates” in Germany and France. The movement’s primary objective was the destruction of the Church of Rome and its Hapsburg supporters.
Following the Fama Fraternatis, several lodges of the Order were founded whose members claimed that the Rosicrucians had been active in the events that surrounded the Reformation, and the rise of theLutheran movement in Germany and Switzerland. It has been noted that Luther used as his personal seal the symbol of a rose and a cross.
During Luthers lifetime the movement spread through about half of Germany, and also spawned numerous sects, the most prominent of which was led by Calvin.
From The Rosicrucian Enlightenment
The Manifestos appeared around the same time that the German prince Frederick V, Elector of the Palatinate of the Rhine, began to be seen as the ideal incumbent to take the place of leader of the Protestant resistance against the Catholic Hapsburgs.
While Frederick had powerful connections with French Protestants, most importantly, in 1613, he had married Elizabeth Stuart, daughter of King James of England.
The foundational myth of modern occultism is derived from Rosicrucianism, where Hermeticism is believed to have been an ancient “Egyptian” tradition, preserved by the Ismailis, before it was adopted by the Templars.
The Templar heritage of Scotland was supposedly inherited by the Sinclairs, who were hereditary grandmasters of Scottish Freemasonry, and by the Stuart dynasty, that ruled Scotland and England, beginning with the reign of King James.
The marriage of Frederick and Elizabeth represented an important dynastic alliance, in order to bolster the Protestant movement. Frederick was personally invested with the Order of the Garter at Windsor by his future father-in-law King James.
In arranging the marriage of Frederick to Elizabeth Stuart it was hoped that her father, King James of England, who appeared to support the Protestant cause, would come to the assistance of his son-in-law in the case of an uprising against the Catholic Church and its Hapsburg supporters.
In 1618 the largely Protestant estates of Bohemia rebelled against their Catholic King Ferdinand, triggering the outbreak of the Thirty Years’ War.
Expecting that King James would come to their aid, in 1619 the Rosicrucians granted the throne of Bohemia to Frederick in direct opposition to the Catholic Habsburg rulers. Frederick accepted the offer and was crowned on 4 November of that year.
However, James opposed the takeover of Bohemia from the Habsburgs, and Frederick’s allies in the Protestant Union failed to support him militarily by signing the Treaty of Ulm in 1620. Frederick’s brief reign as King of Bohemia ended with his defeat at the Battle of White Mountain in the same year. For his short reign of a single winter, Frederick is often nicknamed the “Winter King.”
The last to be heard of the Rosicrucian brotherhood was in 1623 in France. . In his Instruction to France about the truth of the Rose Cross Brothers, published in 1623, Francois Naudé exposed the “Pretended Invisible Ones” and their “Horrible Pacts” with Satan.
Naudé claims that thirty-six “deputies” of the Rosy Cross had convened in the provincial city of Lyons on the very day posters appeared in Paris, at which time the participants celebrated a grand Sabbath on the eve of St. John’s Day [summer Solstice]. The members at this point prostrated themselves before an emissary of the devil, named Astarte. To the demon they swore they would renounce all the rites and sacraments of the Christian Church. In return, they were given special powers and promises of riches
Masonic writers believe that Dante, who was educated among the Franciscans, was an early Rosicrucian, his Infero being modeled on the Roman de la Rose. Likewise, Rene Descartes’ biographer Adrien Baillet, writing in the seventeenth century, related that Descartes heard of the Rosicrucians in Germany during the winter of 1619-20. The news reached him “at a time when he was in the greatest perplexity concerning the way that he should follow in the investigation of the truth,” and he immediately attempted to contact members of the fraternity.
Descartes apparently failed to meet any of the purported Rosicrucians but he was nevertheless rumored to have become one of their members when he returned to Paris in 1623, the year of the Rosicrucian craze.
The Rosicrucian manifesto may now take on a somewhat wider meaning. It called for a general reformation because other reformations have failed. The Protestant Reformation was losing strength and was divided. The Catholic Counter Reformation had taken a wrong turning. A new general reformation of the whole wide world was called for, and this third reformation was to find its strength in Evangelical Christianity with its emphasis on brotherly love, in the esoteric Hermetic-Cabalist tradition, and in an accompanying turning towards the works of God in nature in a scientific spirit of exploration, using science or magic, magical science or scientific magic, in the service of man.
In the years after 1620 the combination of Hapsburg power with Counter Reformation Catholicism came near to absolute victory. The Reformation seemed on the verge of extinction in Europe, and there seemed little place in the world for a failed Lion, for the ex-King of Bohemia who had lost all his lands, been deprived of his electorate, and lived in poverty-stricken dependence as a refugee at The Hague. The Eagle had indeed triumphed.
Frederick continued to take part in cam- paigns for the recovery of the Palatinate and continued to be a failure. Yet this man represented something. In his failure and despair he repre- sented the failure and despair of Protestant Europe. And in the eyes of many Englishmen he represented disgrace and shame, shame for the abandonment by her Stuart successors of Queen Elizabeth’s role of protector of Protestant Europe.
Rosicrucian was one fully in the stream of the Renaissance Hermetic-Cabalist tradition, but distinguished from the earlier phases of the movement by his addition of alchemy to his interests. This did not alter the basic adherence of the Rosicrucian to the scheme of ‘occult philosophy’ as laid down by Cornelius Agrippa.
John Dee was a typically Rosicrucian thinker, with his combined alchemical and cabalist interests, and traces of the Rosicrucian outlook could be detected in Francis Bacon and even in Isaac Newton.
To the genuine Rosicrucian, the religious side of the movement was always the most important. The Rosicrucian attempted to penetrate to deep levels of religious experience through which his personal religious experience, within his own confessional affiliation, was revived and strengthened. The movement as it developed in Germany did, however, take on an anti-Catholic bias, or rather, more particularly, an anti-Jesuit bias. Here it involved an intense piety of a broadly evangelical type through which appeal could be made to all German Protestants, of whatever denomination.
The manifestos stress Cabala and Alchymia as the dominant themes in the movement. The latter gave the movement a turn towards medi- cine.
The religious outlook is bound up with the idea that penetration has been made into higher angelic spheres in which all religions were seen as one; and it is the angels who are believed to illuminate man’s intellectual activities.
In the earlier Renaissance, the magi had been careful to use only the forms of magic operating in the elemental or celestial spheres, using talismans and various rituals to draw down favourable influences from the stars. Dee firmly believed that he had gained contact with good angels from whom he learned advancement in knowledge. This sense of close contact with angels or spiritual beings is the hallmark of the Rosicrucian.
It is this which infuses his technology, however practical and successful and entirely rational in its new understanding of mathematical techniques, with an unearthly air, and makes him suspect as possibly in contact, not with angels, but with devils.
The period during which the Rosicrucian manifestos appeared, and the period of the furore which they aroused, is the time when the Renaissance disappears into convulsions of witch-hunting and wars, to emerge in the years to come—when these horrors were overpast—as enlightenment.
The union of religious with scientific vision took the form in the Rosicrucian movement of that strangely intense alchemical movement, in which alchemical modes of expression seemed best suited to the religious experience.
In the Rosicrucian Enlightenment, Frances Yates argues that, in addition to the influence of John Dee, Bacon’s movement for the advancement of learning was also closely connected with the German Rosicrucian movement.
Back to Livingstones Transhumanism
Bacon wrote a utopian romance New Atlantis, which portrays a land ruled by Rosicrucians
In New Atlantis, published in 1627, after the foundation of the English colonies in the Americas, Bacon suggests that the continent of America was the former Atlantis where there existed an advanced race during the Golden Age of civilization. Bacon tells the story of a country ruled by philosopher-scientists in their great college called Solomon’s House. They possess a superior knowledge which was imparted to them by heavenly beings, and they have flying machines and ships with which they travel under the sea.
In a speech to Parliament, Bacon alluded to the establishment of Solomon’s House in the American colonies as the blueprint for the country, which has been acknowledged as such by Freemasons, who regard America as imparted with an important destiny in fulfilling Plato’s vision for a universal state.
Bacon expressed his views on this subject several times, claiming that the New Kingdom on Earth which was Virginia exemplified the Kingdom of Heaven.
Solomon’s House was modeled on the lines of the “Invisible College,” as advocated in Rosicrucian writings. The Invisible College originated when, during the Thirty Years War, Andrea had created a network of secret societies known as the Christian Unions. Once in England, these men, both English and European, formed the Invisible College.
The Invisible College later became the Royal Society, a learned society founded in 1660, and influenced by the scientific method of the “new science,” as promoted by Bacon.
Virtually all the founding members of the Royal Society were Freemasons. It is believed that Freemasonry derived from “operative” masonry, or craft guilds of masons, and then evolved into “speculative” masonry or a secret society based on the mystical interpretation of rebuilding the Temple of Solomon.
Thus the “Craft” refers cryptically to Solomon’s ability to command spirits, which is the magic used in the Freemason’s plan of symbolically rebuilding the Temple of Jerusalem, referred to as the “Great Work.”
The basis of the modern Western belief system is secularism, which is rooted in the eighteenth century. Known as the Age of Enlightenment, or the Age of Reason, it derives its name from the notorious Illuminati, a secret society to which belonged the leading philosophers of the period. Their premise was that man should rely on his “reason” alone, and not God and scripture, which they denounced as “superstition.”
In this way, the era incepted a strict empiricism that governs intellectual thought to this day, and upholds the primacy of science in determining all truth.
More correctly, however, the Illuminati’s insistence on science was not founded in a secular idea, but in the Rosicrucian tradition of magic and alchemy, which for them represented an occult agenda for the overthrow of Christianity, Judaism and Islam.
According to Rabbi Antelman in To Eliminate the Opiate, the true founders of the Bavarian Illuminati were the Rothschilds, who became the preeminent banking family of the modern age, who created a banking empire that established branches all over Europe.
The dynasty was founded by Amschel Mayer Bauer (1744-1812), who took on the name Rothschild, for “red shield” in German.
Business expanded rapidly following the French Revolution when Rothschild handled payments from Britain for the hire of Hessian mercenaries to Great Britain during the American Revolution.
By the early years of the nineteenth century, Mayer Amschel Rothschild had consolidated his position as principal international banker to Wilhelm IX
According to Rabbi Antelman, the Rothschilds were members of the Sabbatean sect known as the Frankists, who were founded in 1755 by Jacob Frank, originally Jacob Leibowicz.
Frank is believed to have been born in Eastern Poland, now Ukraine, in about 1726 into a Sabbatean family.
In 1755 he reappeared in Poland, gathered a group of local adherents and began to preach the “revelations” which were communicated to him by the Dönmeh in Salonika.
Frank taught a doctrine of the “holiness of sin,” claiming that with the arrival of the messiah, everything was permitted. Among the more radical Frankists, explains Gershom Scholem, there developed a “veritable mythology of nihilism,” in which the new messianic dispensation “entailed a complete reversal of values, symbolized by the change of the thirty-six prohibitions of the Torah... into positive commands.”
The Jewish authorities in Poland excommunicated Frank and his followers, and made it obligatory upon every pious Jew to seek them out and expose them. Due to the persecution of the Jewish Rabbis for his heresy, Frank gained the support of the Catholic Church, after which he publicly burned the Talmud, declaring that he recognized only the Zohar.
Frank assured his adherents that he had received revelations from Heaven, which called for his and his followers’ conversion to Christianity. As the previous Sabbateans had already passed through Judaism and Islam, the Frankists believed they ought now also to infiltrate Christianity, where they were responsible for the proliferation of sects with doctrines of occult inclination.
Frank himself was baptized in 1759 with his godfather being King Augustus III of Poland, who retained Baron von Hund as Intimate Counsellor. By 1790, 26,000 Jews were recorded baptized in
Ultimately, Frank taught his followers that the overthrow and destruction of society was the only thing that could save mankind. Despite the fact that they were all outwardly religious, the Frankists sought, according to Scholem, “the annihilation of every religion and positive system of belief,” and they dreamed “of a general revolution that would sweep away the past in a single stroke so that the world might be rebuilt.”
Jacob Frank asserted that God, the creator was different from the god who had revealed himself to the Isrealites. He believed the Biblical God was evil, belief widely held in Gnostic circles. Where Frank separated himself was by rejecting every moral law and commandment, and declaring that the only way to a new society was through the total destruction of the present civilization. He insisted that child sacrifice, rape, incest and the drinking of blood were perfectly acceptable and necessary religious rituals.
Frankfurt was to be the headquarters of the Jesuit, Adam Weishaupt, founder of the Illuminati, as well as Rothschild Brothers’ financial empire. This is worth repeating: Frankfurt was the birthplace of both the Illuminati and the Rothschild empire. When Jacob Frank entered the city, the alliance between the two had already begun. Weishaupt provided the conspiratorial resources of the Jesuit Order, while the Rothschilds contributed the money. What was missing was a means to spread the agenda of the Illuminati and that the Frankists added with their network of agents throughout the Christian and Islamic worlds. Jacob Frank became instantly wealthy because he was given a nice handout by Mayer Amshel Rothschild of Frankfurt.
Weishaupt created the Illuminati in 1776, with the aim of fulfilling this Frankist plot of subverting the world’s religions.
Weishaupt was able to coerce his dupes to conform unwittingly to his project by following a system of indoctrination by degrees, and feigning to offer enlightened interpretations of Christianity or humanitarian political principles.
Thus the Illuminati’s goal was to pursue the fulfillment a new world order, founded on the tenets of anarchism and communism, under the pretext of establishing “Liberty” and “Freedom.” In his own words, Weishaupt boasted, “Oh! Men, of what cannot you be persuaded?”
Mayer Rothschild summoned 12 affluent men to Frankfort, and asked them to pool their financial resources. He then presented the 25-point plan that would enable them to gain control of the wealth, natural resources and manpower of the entire world.
This plan included instructions on how to preach “Liberalism” to usurp political power, initiate class warfare, dismantle and reconstruct all existing institutions, and remain invisible until the very moment when the Illuminati had gained such strength that no cunning or force can undermine it.
Other highlights of their plan included the use of mob psychology to control the masses. They would systematically advocate and use alcoholic liquors, drugs, moral corruption and all forms of vice to corrupt the youth. In addition, they planned to use the press for propaganda to control all outlets of public information, while remaining in the shadows, clear of blame. The plan called for the masses to be made to believe that they had been the prey of criminals, and then they would restore order and to appear as the saviors.
A key to their success was the infiltration of Freemasonry to take advantage of the Grand Orient Lodges, cloaking the true nature of their work in philanthropy. They plotted to use this influence to spread their atheistic-materialistic ideology through systematic deception, high-sounding phrases and popular slogans.
Ultimate world government was the goal, through corporate monopolies, so that even the largest fortunes will depend on them. There would be the all out use of economic warfare, with a combination of high taxes and unfair competition. They intended to control a sufficient police force and domestic soldiers to protect their interests. They would call this paradigm The New World Order, and will eventually appoint a dictator.
“All Illuminati are Freemasons but far from all Freemasons are Illuminati,” stated Professors Cosandey and Renner from Munich in their testimonies in April, 1785, implying that only a minority ever reached the highest mystery degrees. Adam Weishaupt himself wrote: “The [Masonic] Lodge shall be our nursery garden. All those who are not suited to the work shall remain in the Masonic Lodge and advance in that without knowing anything of the further system.
The Enlightenment was preceded by the Scientific Revolution and the work of Francis Bacon, John Locke, among others. European historians traditionally date its beginning with the death of Louis XIV of France in 1715 and its end with the 1789 outbreak of the French Revolution.
Nick Bostrom also claims the basis of transhumanism as having been founded during the Age of Enlightenment, which he regards as having been initiated by Francis Bacon, the godfather of Rosicrucianism.
End Transhumanism Excerpts
The Bavarian Illuminati of course was broken up after being banned by an edict of the Bavarian government in 1785. Some members were imprisoned, while others were driven from their homes. Weishaupt was stripped of his chair at Ingolstadt and banished from Bavaria. After 1785 the historical record contains no further activities of Weishaupt’s illuminati.
No doubt the ideology lived on among the ELite under other named and organizations.
The Enlightenment brought us Malthusianism, Social Darwinism, Marxism, Zionism, Fascism, Eugenics, 2 World Wars, many smaller Wars, a Global Depression a Cold War, Global War on Terror , Global Financial Crisis, COVID and whatever is to come.
The Dark Ages isn’t looking so bad.
How did they manage all this?
For awhile they met and conspired in their various secret societies. Mostly fighting one faction of ELites or another. Today it is an Open Conspiracy and they are mostly united , plotting against us and conducting 5th Generation Warfare, and they meet in groups such as the UN, Davos (WEF) , Basel (BIS), CFR, Trilateral Commission, Atlantic Council, Bilderberg Meetings, Club of Rome, Business Roundtable, etc.
With virtually every country’s government controlled they may now concentrate on reigning in the freedoms of the population, lowering their population and reducing their consumption (living standards). Those who can help them ascend and transform themselves into Gods will be tolerated until they are no longer required.
Most people don’t want to accept this hypothesis, and its pretty easy to reject since there are a lot of moving parts. No worries, its not like anything can be changed at this point unless we get invaded by Aliens and unite against a common enemy
Bring on Project Blue Beam
What is Project Blue Beam?
Serge Monast disclosed Project Blue Beam in his book in 1994 (nowhere to be found now).
He died of a supposed heart attack in 1996 and his book was never translated or republished
A transcript of an interview describing Project Blue Beam here. I cant validate it so take with grain of salt
While he did not mention CBDC by name he did say a new Electronic Currency will be part of Project Blue Beam. The Tech has certainly come a long way to pull something like that off. I think they probably go with trying a Fake Alien Invasion instead of what Serge talks about though

If made it this far Congratulations, have yourself a beer or glass of wine and forget about it. It is what it is, and they still have a long way to go if people can resist the falling for their Psyops,
I am not one of those who think the solution to this problem is escapism (building a parallel system or agorism), certainly violence is not a solution, and while not complying as an individual (where you can do so without many consequences) is recommended, its not a solution.
I don’t have a solution. Not smart enough. I used to think a universal awakening would be enough but I think people are too caught up with cherished beliefs that feed the beast and that are so much a part of their identity they are not easily changed. This is problematic since it prevents those who awaken from identifying the real Enemy. Its not your neighbor, immigrants, Chinese, liberalism or conservatism that is the enemy, its the financial, corporate and cognitive ELite who control government that has you in their crosshairs.
I do hope at some point the ELite just turn on themselves, but I imagine one or another Evil Faction or another will reign supreme and Build Back Better
Ending this beast of a post here and now.
Thank you for this, I appreciate the well-knitted narrative. Regarding the origin of transhumanism: Bostrom's suggestion of Bacon overlaps Arendt's identification of the modern science fiction imagination expressing a desire to escape the earth, a somewhat different form of escapism than that of the philosophers and ascetics before. Sir John Meyres, "Blackbeard of the Aegean," was an archaeologist spook for the British Empire, mentor of V.Gordon Childe, who came up with the schema of the different Industrial Revolutions and influenced Julian Huxley and many others. I found this article, "Nomadism," given in 1938 interesting as it phantasizes camps and genocide of many peoples, on the ground that they are "syntrophic" with animals, not really human, a perversity. "Transhumance" is partial migration with animals. "Lebensraum" appears a couple times as well as speculation that might be "either Aryan or proletarian." https://www.jstor.org/stable/pdf/2844399.pdf?refreqid=fastly-default%3A17e873bbb11db58fdaf527778e8f5a87&ab_segments=&origin=&initiator=
Good article. Really. But if you're going to do something like this again maybe break it up into smaller pieces?
I'm reasonably familiar with gnostic history, and it took me over two hours to get thru this one. Well, being a world class insomniac helped, too.
Very nice tie-in with our so-called elites and their rather uncanny resemblance to certain gnostic sects. I'd never thought of that before, but it makes a terrible amount of sense.
Thanks for this one.
