Analysis of the Monetary Reform Act — Part I

Analysis of the Monetary Reform Act — Part I
Thomas Allen

This is the first part of a paper analyzing the “Monetary Reform Act” as it appeared on November 3, 2010. This Act and a description of it can be found at http://www.themoneymasters.com/monetary-reform-act/

Footnote 1 identifies Patrick Carmack as the principal author of the proposed Act. For my analysis, the authorship is irrelevant. I am analyzing the Act and not its author. For convenience, I refer to the proposed Act as Mr. Carmack’s proposal and use his name.

I have italicized the words of the Act and its footnotes and my paraphrases and summaries of their words. My commentary is in Roman letters.

The Act presents a two-step plan for national reform and recovery:

Step 1: Directs the Treasury Department to issue U.S. Notes (like Lincoln’s Greenbacks; can also be in electronic deposit format) to pay off the National debt.

Step 2: Increases the reserve ratio private banks are required to maintain from 10% to 100%, thereby terminating their ability to create money, while simultaneously absorbing the funds created to retire the national debt.

Mr. Carmack states that “These two relatively simple steps, which Congress has the power to enact, would extinguish the national debt, without inflation or deflation, and end the unjust practice of private banks creating money as loans (i.e., fractional reserve banking). Paying off the national debt would wipe out the $400+ billion annual interest payments and thereby balance the budget.”

His proposed Act “would stabilize the economy and end the boom-bust economic cycles caused by fractional reserve banking.” As shown below, the proposed Act fails to achieve most of these objectives, and in some instances makes matters worse.

The preamble of the Act reads:

To restore confidence in and governmental control over money and credit, to stabilize the money supply and price level, to establish full reserve banking, to prohibit fractional reserve banking, to retire the national debt, to repeal conflicting Acts, to withdraw from international banks, to restore political accountability for monetary policy, and to remove the causes of economic depressions, without additional taxation, inflation or deflation, and for other purposes.

As shown below, the Act does not stabilize the price level, retire the national debt, or remove the causes of economic depression. It is merely another fiat monetary attempt to get something for nothing.

Section 3, Definitions, defines U.S. notes. “United States Notes as used herein shall mean Treasury issue United States currency notes (as defined in 31 U.S.C. Sec. 5115) not bearing any interest, being lawful money and legal tender for all debts, public and private, and which term as used herein shall include Treasury Department Deposits (a.k.a. Treasury Deposits or Treasury book entries) convertible to United States Notes, which may be substituted therefor at the discretion of the Secretary of the Treasury.”

Mr. Carmack intends to flood the country with noninterest-bearing debt. Moreover, this debt is nonpayable. According to Webster’s New Collegiate Dictionary (1977), a “note” is “3c (1): a written promise to pay a debt (2): a piece of paper money.” Thus, Mr. Carmack’s money, U.S. notes, is a debt circulating as money. As a note is a debt, it implies that something is due to the holder. However, Mr. Carmack’s notes are redeemable in nothing. The holder cannot redeem them in anything. All he can do is pass this debt to another person in exchange for some good or service. Consequently, his notes are noninterest-bearing and nonpayable debt.

The Act’s definition of U.S. notes declares them to be legal tender for all debts. By declaring them legal tender, Mr. Carmack is convinced, and rightly so, that people will not accept his U.S. notes as payment unless the government forces them to. Unlike gold and silver, which can stand on their own merits, the military might of the government is necessary to force these U.S. notes on the people.

Based on the footnotes to the Act, Mr. Carmack, unlike most fiat monetary reformers, seems to have some confidence in a market economy — except for money. He does not trust the markets, i.e., the people themselves, to provide high-quality money in an adequate quantity. He is convinced, and correctly so, that his irredeemable fiat paper money cannot compete against real money like gold and silver. If he really believes that government fiat paper money is the superior form of money, he would not need to declare it legal tender. If he believes in monetary freedom, he would let the markets choose what they want for money. He knows that if given a choice, the free market would most likely choose gold and probably silver. It would not choose government fiat paper money. Thus, legal tender laws are needed. Gold must never be allowed to become money.

Moreover, the U.S. Constitution does not authorize the U.S. government to issue any kind of paper money or to declare any kind of money legal tender. (See my book Reconstruction of America’s Monetary and Banking System, pages 72-82, for a discussion on this prohibition.) By implication, legal tender laws reside with the States. It prohibits the States from “making anything but gold and silver coin a tender in payment of debts” (Article I, Section 10). Thus, an honest court would declare Section 3 of this Act, along with most of the rest of it, unconstitutional.

Section 4, One Hundred Percent (100%) Reserve Requirement, requires 100 percent reserves. It sets forth a procedure to achieve this requirement. This is one of the few redeeming features of this Act. Its language does not clearly distinguish between checkable deposits (checking accounts) and savings deposits (savings accounts). Banks receive savings deposits to lend. Unlike money in savings accounts, money in a checking account is immediately available to the account holder to use. If a bank lends money from checking accounts, it is borrowing short and lending long — a recipe for disaster. If it uses money in checking accounts for the basis of loans, it is giving multiple parties access to the same money simultaneously — a recipe for disaster. Because fractional reserve banking gives multiple parties access to the same money simultaneously, it is a form of fraud. It should be prohibited.

Section 5, Retiring the National Debt, sets forth procedures for retiring the national debt. The Secretary of the Treasury is to buy all outstanding federal debt held by the public using U.S. notes. In essence, Mr. Carmack proposes to replace interest-bearing debt that is eventually discharged with noninterest-bearing debt that is never discharged.

Under the current monetary system and Mr. Carmack’s proposed replacement, debt can never be extinguished. When a debt instrument is paid off with another debt instrument, that debt is discharged by transferring the debt to another. Until a debt is paid off with a commodity like gold or silver that is no one else’s obligation, it can never be extinguished short of bankruptcy.

In Footnote 3, Mr. Carmack does recognize that without ending fractional reserve banking using U.S. notes to buy federal debt would be hyperinflationary — thus, the need to end fractional reserve banking. He is correct in this assessment. However, contrary to his assertion, his Act would be highly inflationary for two reasons: (1) the large and increasing quantity of money that it creates and (2) the poor and declining quality of that money.

Also, in Footnote 3, he refers to extinguishing the national debt. As discussed above, his scheme does not and cannot extinguish the national debt. It only changes the form of that debt.

Section 6, Stable Money Supply, requires the Secretary of the Treasury to buy with U.S. notes or Treasury Deposits U.S. government debt securities held by the public at the rate of the reserve requirement ratio under Section 4. Section 6 asserts that by buying at this rate, the money supply will be kept constantly stable. It allows the Secretary to buy other U.S. government agency securities with U.S. notes if necessary to provide funds to increase bank reserves to 100 percent.

This Section is primarily a transitional section from the current system to 100- percent reserves. Mr. Carmack is assuming that most of the U.S. notes used to buy U.S. government securities from the public outside of banks will be deposited in banks instead of being spent. If most of this money is not deposited in banks or used to pay loans, some banks may be unable to meet the 100-percent reserve requirement. Even if all of it were deposited in banks, it would not necessarily be deposited proportionally. Thus, some banks still would not meet the reserve requirement and would have to call in loans. This transitional period could cause a recession.

Section 7, Future Monetary Growth, requires the Treasury Department to increase the quantity of U.S. notes (outstanding currency plus Treasury deposits) outstanding by 3 percent per year. It accomplishes this goal by paying U.S. notes into the economy “first to retire (or purchase) any future war bonds (issued pursuant to section 8. hereof), then any remaining marketable and non-marketable federal debt (e.g., Federal government agency securities, intra-governmental debt, and fully guaranteed obligations of the government), then, pursuant to appropriation by Congress, to pay for goods, services, or interest.” Any new money that Congress does not appropriate is rebated to individuals via the income tax system. This Section also prohibits the sale of U.S. government debt securities except during war.

Mr. Carmack exhibits a childlike trust in the politicians who control Congress. That Congress would fail to appropriate the full 3 percent is highly unlikely. That it would appropriate more than the 3-percent allotted growth is highly likely. With all this apparent free money without the resistance of raising taxes, how could they restrain themselves? By statute, Congress can change the 3 percent to a much higher percentage. It probably would not even have to raise the limit formally. If it appropriates more than the 3-percent limit, the Department of the Treasury has to create additional U.S. notes to pay for the excess. It cannot borrow. That a court would object to exceeding the 3-percent limit is highly unlikely. (Although some federal judges have undertaken the task of writing budgets and appropriating funds for local governments, I am unaware of any judge assuming this authority to write the budget for the entire U.S. government. It would have to do this if it wanted to hold appropriations to 3 percent. If it sent the budget back to Congress, Congress could retaliate by abolishing all federal courts below the Supreme Court — a good first step to reducing expenditures to the 3-percent level.)

He attempts to cover this loophole under Section 10. As discussed below, Section 10 is ineffective at achieving this goal and offers only a weak resistance.

According to Footnote 5, the 3 percent comes from Milton Friedman’s recommendation that money supply should grow at a steady rate year after year. Prof. Friedman recommended a growth rate between 3 and 5 percent. Mr. Carmack’s approach should be more capable of achieving a steady growth rate than Prof. Friedman’s approach. Mr. Carmack’s approach monopolizes money issuance and places it under the control of one, the U.S. government. Prof. Friedman proposed attaching his scheme to the current system with the Federal Reserve administering it with fractional reserve banking. Thus, under Prof. Friedman’s scheme, money creation is dispersed. Unlike Mr. Carmack’s scheme, Prof. Friedman’s scheme continues to allow fractional reserve banking.

Mr. Carmack supports Prof. Friedman’s proposed constitutional amendment to limit the growth of money. This amendment is in Footnote 14. Prof. Friedman’s amendment does two things. First, it authorizes Congress to issue “non-interest-bearing obligations of the government in the form of currency or book entries.” Second, “the total dollar amount outstanding increases by no more than 5 percent per year and no less than 3 percent.” At least the amendment gives constitutional support to Mr. Carmack’s proposal of the Department of the Treasury issuing U.S. notes. However, his requirement for banks to maintain 100-percent reserves is questionable. A strict constitutionalist would insist that the regulation of reserve requirements for banks lies with the States.

Footnote 14 gives Mr. Friedman’s introduction to his proposed amendment. He correctly notes that the Constitution does not authorize Congress to issue paper money. “[T]he power given to Congress ‘to coin money, regulate the value thereof, and of foreign coin’ referred to a commodity money: specifying that the dollar shall mean a definite weight in grams of silver or gold.”

In defense of his selection of 3 percent, Mr. Carmack writes in Footnote 5:

With population growth and productivity increases averaging approximately one percent (1%) each per year for the last thirty years, a three percent (3%) growth figure will insure stable prices within a vary narrow range and would allow for price-level or cost-of-living adjustments (COLAs) in contracts with a predictable effect to address any slight variation in economic activity from the three percent (3%) monetary growth rate. Further, as perfect fine-turning of monetary growth in a complex economy is not possible, to err on the side of a very slight inflation would at least relieve those burdened by debt of some of the effects of the prior inequity caused by private money creation, whereas to err on the side of deflation would exacerbate such inequity.

He believes that “a fixed rate of growth will provide the needed stability so long lacking [in] monetary policy.”

Mr. Carmack admits that his proposal is inflationary. He is correct. His proposal has no direct relationship with the demand for money or the economy’s need for money. Basing the growth of the money supply on 30-year average population growth and productivity increases is ridiculous. These numbers, especially population growth, relate only indirectly to the need for monetary growth. In some years more money is needed. In some years less money is needed. Then to avoid the possibility of deflation, he triples these growth rates to derive his monetary growth rate. He prefers money whose purchasing power (quality) is in a perpetual state of decline to money whose purchasing power is generally stable or increases. If he did not intend to destroy the currency, he would not need to discuss allowing price-level and cost-of-living adjustments.

He is right about the lack of stability with the current monetary policy. Unfortunately, his proposal will not bring the stability that he claims to desire.

Inflation is the primary cause of instability under the current system. It will cause instability under his proposal. Inflation distorts the economy. It leads to malinvestments. It causes excessive speculation. Savings, and, therefore, investments, decline because it penalizes savers. All these distortions cannot continue indefinitely. Eventually, they cause an economic contraction that leads to panic, recession, or depression.

Apparently, Mr. Carmack, following Prof. Friedman’s lead, is trying to achieve the stability achieved under the gold and silver standards without their discipline to keep governments and bankers in line.

Furthermore, Mr. Carmack’s proposed Act appears to contain a flaw in common with the 100-percent gold standard. It does not automatically adjust the money supply to match the high seasonal demand for money that occurs in December and in rural areas at harvest time. Thus, the system must carry an unused excess of money for most of the year to cover these peak demand periods.

Unlike many fiat money reformers, Mr. Carmack is not proposing, at least in this Act, to eliminate the income tax. Without the income tax system, he would need another mechanism to rebate deficiencies in appropriations to individuals. He is not proposing to replace the income tax with printing press money as some fiat money reformers do.

Section 8, War Exception, allows Congress to exceed the 3-percent limit if Congress formally declares war. It also allows the U.S. government to borrow when Congress formally declares war. The authorization to exceed the 3-percent limit and to borrow ends each year unless Congress extends them for another year. In any event, they end when the war ends.

Anyone who believes that this Section provides any restraint on Congress or the President should not be taken seriously. If this law had been in effect since 1950, only the childishly naive would believe that it would have provided any restraint on Presidents Truman, Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Regan, Bush the Elder, Clinton, Bush the Younger, or Obama in their undeclared wars.

If Congress authorized exceeding the 3-percent limit or borrowing to fund these undeclared wars, such law itself would be interpreted as nullifying Section 8. Section 8 is merely a hollow feel-good provision. It restrains Congress no more than Section 7 or 10.

Section 9, Full Reserve Banks, restricts the lending and investing activities of any institution calling itself a “bank.” A bank cannot lend any more than its owners’ capital. All money deposited in a bank is held in trust by the bank for the depositor. For every dollar deposited, the bank must have a dollar in U.S. notes in its vaults or invested in a Treasury Department Deposit account. All deposits in banks are in demand (checking) accounts. “Only bank deposits may be transferable by check, credit card, electronic transfer or any substitute therefor.” Banks may charge fees for their services and may pay interest on deposits.

As banks cannot lend deposits or otherwise use them to generate revenue except to deposit them in Treasury Department Deposit accounts, it is highly unlikely that they would pay interest on deposits. On the contrary, they will charge fees: fees to hold the money, and fees to transfer the money.

In Footnote 6, Mr. Carmack remarks, “Absent massive fraud or theft, full reserve banks cannot fail, rendering insurance such as F.D.I.C. and F.S.L.I.C. unnecessary.” At least his proposal gets rid of these two agencies.

He is correct in that 100-percent reserves for checking accounts go a long way toward eliminating bank failure. The other component is prohibiting the lending of money in savings accounts for periods longer than the depositor has surrendered control of his money. That is, if a saver deposits his money in an account from which he cannot withdraw the money for 30 days, the lending institution, as Mr. Carmack calls it, could lend that money for no more than 30 days. Thus, prohibiting borrowing short and lending long also goes a long way toward eliminating bank failure. The Act covers this prohibition under Section 12.

Bank failure can be virtually eliminated if banks meet these two criteria. First, banks cannot lend or use as the basis for loans money in checking accounts — 100-percent-reserve banking. Second, banks cannot lend savings deposits for periods longer than it has full control of the savings — ending borrowing short and lending long.

Gaining Control

Gaining Control
Thomas Allen

[Editor’s note: Footnotes in original are omitted.]

The replacement of Christian doctrines with Lucifer’s illuministic doctrine greatly intensified after World War II. Illuminists place great emphasis on infiltrating and gaining control of the Protestant denominations and the Catholic Church. Among those working within the Catholic Church to sabotage its traditional beliefs and replace them with Illuminism was Father Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, Father Baum (a Jew who “converted” to Catholicism), and many other Catholic priest who believed and preferred the teachings of Marx and Freud to those Jesus and the Bible. Taking the lead in promoting Liberation Theology and Marxism have been the Jesuits.

Another important illuministic leader in the religious realm has been Carl Jung, a Swiss psychiatrist and founder of analytical psychology. Liberal Protestant churches have adopted many of his teachings as they seek to replace the Christ-centered teachings of the Bible with humanistic ego-centered psychology and philosophy. His doctrines are also highly influential among New Age religions. The teachings of Jung, Teilhard de Chardin, and other occult scholars give the New Age religions an air of being scientific, and, thus, they draw the highly educated into the occult.

Two Americans who were important in destroying Christianity in the United States were Water Rauschenbusch and Harry F. Ward. They were socialists and Marxists. They sought to use religion to establish socialism. They preached a “social gospel” and promised a “kingdom of God on Earth” through socialism. Rauschenbusch provided the theology of the collective social gospel, and Ward organized the movement for the social gospel to replace true Christianity.

Freemasons are encouraged to be active in Christian churches so that they can gain control of them. Then they can turn the churches from the teachings of Jesus to the teachings of Lucifer as express through Freemasonry. Thus, they can corrupt them with “modernism” and “liberalism.” Consequently, most churches and denomination have abandon opposition to miscegenation, homosexualism, divorce, abortion, and euthanasia. Illuminists have infiltrated and gained control of most mainline churches and divinity schools and seminaries. As a result, most mainline churches have abandoned teaching the Bible. They have substituted a form of secular humanism, materialism, and other non-biblical theology. They replace the spiritual truths established by facts and revealed in the Bible with spiritual “truths” based on personal experiences and feelings. They have strip Christ of his divine nature and present him, his apostles, and the early church as Communists or socialists. They have replaced the spiritual with the material. Salvation does not come from the grace of God; it comes from Illuminism. They are leaving their members spiritually starved. Many of the spiritually starved end up seeking spiritual satisfaction in some New Age religious movement.

The Christian churches that are not under the control of Illuminists are the main threat to the Illuminists in achieving their New World Order. These Bible-believing Christians must be neutralized. Many of these Christians are being seduced into sacrificing some of their beliefs in the name of world peace and unity. As a result, false doctrines and occult practices have entered their churches. The seduction includes false prophets and false miracles.

Illuminism has advanced its war against Christianity by capturing the United States Supreme Court. During the presidency of Franklin Roosevelt, Freemasonry gained a majority of the Supreme Court justices. This majority, it maintained into the Nixon presidency. Thus, between 1941 and 1971, Freemasonry controlled the Supreme Court.

The Supreme Court adopted the Masonic view of the law: “Law is largely in the interpretation and not in the text. . . .”[1] It followed Franklin Roosevelt instruction for an “enlightened” interpretation of the Constitution. Consequently, “the Constitution means what the Supreme Court says it means,” as Chief Justice Evan Hughes remarked.

Freemasonry used its control of the Supreme Court to remove all vestiges of Christianity from public schools and to convert public schools into temples of Freemasonry religions — secular humanism, occultism, Theosophy, Cabalism, Gnosticism (Freemasonry’s favorite religion), and all other forms of Pantheism promoted by Freemasonry — any religion but Christianity, which Freemasonry hates with as much passion as Lucifer hates Jesus.

It also forced integration of schools and most public and private associations. The primary objective of integration is to destroy the Aryan race by facilitating miscegenation.

Lucifer is using the New Age religious movement to bring about his New World Order. Although most occult initiates are probably ignorant of Lucifer’s control of their religion and his worship by their leaders, many New Age leaders are knowingly collaborating with Lucifer to bring about his New World Order. Probably most of New Agers are unaware that they are involved in the occult. They unknowingly come involved with the occult through their obsession with world peace, holistic health, the environment, yoga, or occult forms of mediation.

In the twentieth century, liberalism was the political program that the Illuminists used to control and destroy the free market, free enterprise economies of the world. The Illuminists have always considered the free market, free enterprise economy as its enemy. They have worked to replace the free market, free enterprise economies with some form of socialism. Their New World Order can only be achieved through a controlled economy.

When Franklin Roosevelt, who was a high degree Illuminist and a 32nd degree Freemason, became President, he believed that the goals of the Illuminists would be achieved during his lifetime. So confident was he in the success of the grand conspiracy that he ordered the insignia of the Masonic Illuminati to be printed on the back of the new American dollar bill. This action informed Illuminists that the Illuminists had absolute control of American finance and politics— control that has been retained to this day.

The Jesuits, the illuminist arm in the Catholic Church, bragged that the world would receive a sign when the ecumenical movement had overcome its worldwide opposition. When Ronald Reagan was sworn in as President of the United States, he gave the sign. The sign was that the President of the United States would face the Washington Monument, a symbolic occult obelisk, while being sworn into office.[2] Reagan was the first President to be sown in while facing the Washington Monument.

Further proof that the Illuminists have nearly completed establishing Lucifer’s New World Order is found in a map adopted in 1952 by the World Association of Parliamentarians for World Government showing the armed forces of one country policing other countries when world government is achieved. This map shows U.S. troops in Yugoslavia, Greece, and Albania, which Clinton achieved in the 1990s; in Australia, where they are, and in Kazak Soviet Socialist Republic (now Kazakhstan), which Clinton achieved in 1997. It showed Russian troops from Oklahoma southward and eastward; in 1995 Russian soldiers were at Fort Riley, Kansas. In 1997, troops from former Soviet block countries were at Fort Polk, Louisiana. Furthermore, Russian police were active in the South during the 1990s—even assisting in arresting Americans. German troops were also stationed in the United States. After the terrorist attack on September 11, 2001, larger numbers of U.S. troops have been moved to the Middle East, and troops from Europe have been stationed in the United States.

Illuminists have achieved great success in the United States and have gained almost complete control of the United States government. Proof of such control is the great difficulty in naming a single act of foreign policy in the last 50 years that truly benefitted the American people as a whole.

Illuminists who control the United States government use the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (BATF), Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA), Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), and other agencies to terrorize the American people. These federal agencies are being used to terrorize Americans into capitulating to the New World Order. The FBI concentrates on fighting Americans who oppose the New World Order rather than fighting Communism, domestic terrorism, and real criminals. Like the IRS and other federal agencies, the FBI has become a terrorist agency. The primary purpose of the IRS is not to collect taxes. Its primary purpose is to terrorize and impoverish the American people by forcibly extorting money from them. Part of the CIA’s job was to make the Soviet Union appear much more powerful than it really was. If anyone claimed that the CIA’s estimates were high, the CIA would bully him into silence. The United States needed a powerful enemy to help the United States government’s control of the American people, which may explain the build up of China after the fall of the Soviet Union.

Illuminists have opened the borders of the United States to Third World immigrants. Some of these millions of immigrants pouring into the United States are trained terrorists, who operate under the orders of the Illuminists. Many are hardened criminals. These immigrants are intended to neutralize opposition to Illuminism. Criminals subdue the population as the people divert their resources to defend themselves from professional criminals. Thus, they are distracted from defending themselves from the biggest criminals of all—Lucifer’s Illuminists. Furthermore, the mass of immigrants who are neither terrorists nor criminals dilute the country with people who have no ties with America’s history or traditions of personal freedom and limited government.

As Illuminism has risen so has persecution of Christians and the degradation of Christianity. Blasphemy passes for art. Hollywood produces ever more movies that belittle and attack Christians and Christianity. Soldiers sent to the Middle East to defend the interest of the United States, i.e., the interest of the Illuminists, are denied Bibles. The police attack Christian protesters, especially pro-life advocates, much more brutally than other classes of protesters. Zoning laws are used to harass Christians and their churches. Christians are habitually denied their inalienable rights. Anti-Christian bigotry is pervasive in the illuministic mainstream media. The Illuminists have achieved their goal of converting the United States from a Christian country to a secular one.

Only about 500 high-degree Illuminists, some of whom direct the large tax-free foundations, are in the United States. Below them are about 10,000 lesser Illuminists, who are primarily politicians, businessmen, media leaders, academicians, and religious leaders.

One reason little fundamental change occurs when the administration in Washington changes from a liberal Democrat to a “conservative” Republican is that Illuminists control both parties. A Democratic president surrounds himself with the Democratic members of the Council on Foreign Relations. A Republican president surrounds himself with Republican members. Furthermore, the conservative think tanks, such as the Hoover Institution, Heritage Foundation, and American Enterprise Institute, are financed by the same people who finance the liberal think tanks. The Rockefeller, Ford, and Brookings foundations finance both the conservative and liberal think tanks.

To achieve and direct the wars and revolutions, Illuminists have to place their agents, stooges, sympathizers, fellow-travelers, and dupes in key positions in government, news media, business, religion, and academia.

When the Illuminists believe that their power base has become strong enough to begin the extermination in the United States of any possible resistance to their Nimrodic dream of world domination, Plan Naamah will be implemented.[3] America will then suffer a reign of terror that the French, Russian, and Spanish suffered during their revolutions. Tens of millions of Americans will die.

The twentieth century was the century of world wars, revolutions, and Communism and fascism. Today Illuminists work to establish globalism. (Anyone who proudly labels himself as a globalist is either an Illuminist or an agent, stooge, sympathizer, fellow-traveler, or dupe of the Illuminists.) Communist China and North Korea are the models of their New World Order.

With the collapse of Soviet Communism, the Cold War ended. As a result countries are being merged into regional groupings, such as the European Union and the North American free trade area, which is being expanded to cover the entire Western Hemisphere. Eventually these regions will be synthesized into a one world state ruled by the Illuminists.

To achieve their Luciferian goals, Illuminists have organized, financed, directed, and controlled Communism, National Socialism (Nazism), Zionism, and other similar movements. Through these movements, Illuminists have fomented wars, world wars, and revolutions while the Illuminists retreat to safety zones. Wars and financial, environmental, and other global catastrophes that Illuminists can cause or exasperate are to continue until mankind becomes physically, psychologically, and economically exhausted and beg, or at least accept, the New World Order with its Satanic one world government and its Luciferian New Age religion as their only hope. The Illuminists will then come forward and offer, or usurp, themselves as the enlightened despotic rulers.

By the end of the twentieth century, the Illuminists had largely achieved their goals of destroying Christianity, overturning governments hostile to their goals, and establishing a one world government with Illuminists as dictators. They had pounded the Aryan race so hard that Aryans were failing to reproduce themselves and were on their way to extinction.

Education

Education
Thomas Allen

[Editor’s note: Footnotes in the original are omitted.]

Illuminists have used their money to gain control of education. They have used their control to further their interest and to foster Illuminism. They are well aware of Lenin’s dictum: “Give us the child for eight years, and it will be a Bolshevik forever.”[1]

Through large endowments, J.P. Morgan and other wealthy Illuminists gained control of policies of the Ivy League universities. Morgan and his associates dominated policy making at Harvard, Columbia, and, to a lesser extend, Yale. The Whitneys were significantly influential at Yale. Edward D. Duffield of Prudential Insurance Co. dominated Princeton. These wealthy men often decided who would be president of these universities. The Illuminists, primarily with Rockefeller money, have also gained control of most of the schools that train teachers. With their money, they also control the major seminaries—thus, they control the training of most ministers.

Carnegie and Rockefeller money has been used to gain control of American schools, both at the university level and at the secondary and primary grade level. Carnegie and Rockefeller money has funded curricula and textbooks whose purpose has been to indoctrinate students in Illuminism and to train them to support Illuminism.

Textbooks have been revised and rewritten to present the subject matter from a Marxist or other illuministic perspective. They promote globalism; “good” has become equated with globalism. Such revisions frequently require the omission of valuable and important facts. They often misstate facts and even outright lie. Even dictionaries have been rewritten to define certain words in ways to incorporate illuministic bias.

The Rockefeller Foundation and Carnegie Corp. financed John Dewey’s socialist philosophy. Dewey was the father of “progressive education,” which became the dominant educational philosophy in the United States. As an atheist and coauthor of the Humanist Manifesto, he preached against immutable truths and permanent moral absolutes. Pragmatism and relativism were his guiding philosophy. He believed that man had no soul or freewill. Man was merely an animal molded by his environment. As man’s environment constantly changed, so man constantly changed. Therefore, to teach absolute morals and truths was a waste of time.

He sought to turn the school house into a temple of the religion of secular humanism. To Dewey, individual judgment was socialism’s greatest enemy, so he worked to replace proven educational programs with programs designed to make a more controllable society. The primary goal of education was to destroy a child’s individualistic traits. The ability of a pupil to become one with the group became the primary measure of a pupil’s educational progress. Students were to be trained to live and work collectively. Thus, pupils were discouraged from trying to advance faster than the lowest member of the group. As grading promoted competition, it was to be abandoned. Promotion was to be automatic.

The purpose of schools was not to develop the student’s talents. It was to prepare the student to integrate into an organic society, the global community. Thus, the student’s “cosmic soul” was to become one with the human race.

Dewey taught David and Nelson Rockefeller. He also organized the educational system of the Soviet Union.

With money from the Rockefeller Foundation and Carnegie Corp., Illuminists have financed and controlled the National Education Association (NEA). “By 1934 the NEA adopted John Dewey’s philosophy of humanism, socialism, and globalism, and incorporated it into the classroom.”[2]

To consolidate complete control over public education in the United States, Nelson Rockefeller created and ran the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare during the Eisenhower administration. (The educational functions of this department were later moved into a new department, the Department of Education during the Carter administration.) Thus, Eisenhower accomplished what Truman had failed to do. (Truman had tried several times to get Congress to create the Department of Health, Education, Welfare, but Republicans and conservative Democrats prevented its creations. Eisenhower got most of the Republicans to join the liberal Democrats in establishing this department.) Through federal grants, the United States government, which the Illuminists thoroughly control, has gained complete control of the public schools.

UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) is another important tool of the Illuminists in directing education (schooling) not only in the United States, but throughout the world for the benefit of the Illuminists. The objective of UNESCO is to train children to be citizens of the world. To achieve this goal, their love of their country, institution, and own people along with patriotism must be destroyed. Thus, children are to be conditioned to transfer their loyalty from their country to a one-world socialistic government under the United Nations, which the Illuminists will control. UNESCO has also promoted keeping children separated from parents as much as possible. The minds of children must be purged of any national or family loyalties (and if their parents are Christians or even nominal Christians, of any Christian thoughts) before they can be molded into non-thinking citizens of the world. (Christianity, nationalism, and family loyalty are antagonists of globalism and Illuminism.) Accordingly, governments establish preschool programs like kindergarten and Head Start. Governments promote working mothers and warehousing children in daycare centers. As part of its program to destroy nationalism, UNESCO also promotes teaching children enmity toward their domestic institution unless these institutions are already compatible with Illuminism. (Thus, to make the merger of the United States into this one-world government easier, their Constitution and relatively free market economy must be destroyed. The destruction of these institutions has been a major goal of government schools.) History is to be taught from a global perspective instead of a national perspective. Consequently, UNESCO also promotes keeping children ignorant of national history and domestic institutions of their own countries and other countries and of the horrors of Communism and failures of socialism— ignorant people are easier to control. The achievements and greatness of Christianity, Western Civilization, and the Aryan race are to be disparaged if not denounced. UNESCO promotes turning schools into doctrinarian centers for Illuminism (globalism, socialism, New Age religion, one-world government). To destroy further traditional morality, loyalties, and family, UNESCO promotes abortion, homosexuality, prostitution, and miscegenation. The essence of UNESCO’s program is Dewey’s progressive educational theory.

Public (government) schools have become temples of the New Age religions where children are proselytized. Children are taught secular humanism, worship of Gaia, witchcraft, Theosophy, and other New Age pantheistic religions. The purpose of public schools is to proselytize for New Age religions, the “religion of humanity that recognizes and respects the spark of what theologians call divinity in every human being.”[3] Belief in the God of the Christians is mental illness. Public schools are to replace “the rotting corpse of Christianity together with all its adjacent evils and misery”[4] with the new faith, which is really the old Luciferian religion of man as god. They are to take children away from their parents and heal them by purging their psyches of all taints of Christianity. (Consequently, public schooling is moving to an ever younger age with the objective of having every child two years of age and older under the control of government, which the Illuminists control.) School children are being prepared for the religion of the New World Order.

Illuminists have gained control of public schools and have turned them into agents for social change—thus, fulfilling the longtime goal of Freemasonry of capturing public education and using it to promote the anti-Christ religion and socialistic politics of Freemasonry. (All that now remains to bring education completely under the control of the Illuminists is eliminating Christian and Catholic schools and outlawing home schooling.) They are using their control to prepare students for the illuministic New World Order. School children are being prepared for a world of moral relativism without Christianity. They are being taught to accept supranational regional governance and then a world government. They are being taught to hate the Aryan race and to glorify all other races. They are being taught that homosexual sex and miscegenation are not only normal, but are superior sexual relations. With easy access to abortion, they are being taught to devalue life. Euthanasia is also promoted. A school curriculum promoting pantheistic religion and world government has replaced traditional Western curricula, which promoted Christianity, nationalism, and ethics. A primary function of public schools is to turn children into good “global citizens.” Teachers are to concentrate on the social orientation of students instead of educating them. Children should be unable to read and especially unable to think or analyze. GOALS 2000 and the “no child left behind” program are part of the New World Order’s educational program.

The Illuminists have implemented the educational program that Woodrow Wilson outlined in 1909. Wilson described the illuministic educational program as follows:

. . . We want to do two things in modern society. We want one class of persons to have a liberal education, and we want another class of persons, a very much larger class, of necessity, in every society, to forego the privileges of a liberal education and fit themselves to perform specific difficult manual tasks. You cannot train them for both in the time the you have at your disposal. They must make a selection, and you must make a selection.[5]

True to its fascist principles, the illuministic state strips parents of authority over their children, yet it holds parents responsible for their children. Illuminist controlled government usurps parental authority, yet it holds parents accountable.

Secular humanism has replaced Christianity as the state religion. It is the religion upon which state institutions and laws are built. Man is worshiped instead of God.

New Age Religions

New Age Religions
Thomas Allen

[Editor’s note: Footnotes in the original are omitted.]

Another important movement underlying the advancement of Illuminism has been the New Age religious movement that became so apparent during the last part of the twentieth century.

New Age religions are pantheistic and occult. Most of the New Age religions are built upon Hinduism, Buddhism, especially Tibetan Buddhism, and Theosophy. They include witchcraft (manipulating the forces of nature) and Satanism (the direct worship of Lucifer). New Age religions range from humanistic worship of “God within” to the pagan worship of Gaia (mother Earth, the Greek goddess of Earth). They allow the individual to pick his own religious truths and his own set of morals and ethics—thus, they discard absolute moral standards and eternal principles and adopt relativism. Instead of worshiping the Creator, the God of the Christians, New Age practitioners worship the creation. The New Age religions base their spiritual truths on personal experience and not on the established facts and truths of the Bible. (These New Age truths are revealed by one’s inter being, or his “psyche.”) The goal of the New Age religious movement is to replace Christianity and limited government with occult socialism, Luciferianism.

Common practices of various New Age sects are trances (altered states of consciousness), astral projections or space travel (out-of-body travel), past life regression (visiting past lives through hypnosis), divination (seeing future events), and spirit guides (direct interaction with spirit beings). Connected with spirit guides, who are, contrary to the belief of most New Age practitioners, demons, is automatic writing. (Messages received through automatic writing are always opposed to orthodox Christianity.) Common features of most occult religions are evolution, reincarnation, astrology, and meditation. New Age religion often involves the use of mind-altering drugs to achieve an altered state. Thus, the drug culture and occultism are companions.

Some popular new age religions are Hare Krishna, Zen Buddhism, Sufism as expressed by the Meher Baba, Transcendental Meditation, and the Divine Light Mission. Hare Krishna and the Divine Light Mission came out to Hinduism. Hare Krishna comes closer to Christianity than any other Hindu sect. Zen Buddhism came out of Buddhism. (In the United States, drugs like LSD have become an important component of Zen Buddhism.)

The Satanic practices listed in Deuteronomy 18:10-11 are popular among various New Age sects. They are making children pass through fire (offering children as human sacrifices to a god, today appearing as abortion), divination (fortune telling, soothsaying), enchantment (interpreting omens), witchcraft (practicing astrology and the like), sorcery (using occult formulas and incantations), charming (casting spells), spiritualism (consulting with spirits), wizardry (acquiring superhuman knowledge from demons), and necromancy (calling up the dead).

Included among the New Age ideas are sex, pornography, the homosexual and feminist movements, environmentalism, abortion and euthanasia, psycho-therapies, worship of Mother Earth, and, especially, embracing any god but the God of the Christians. New Age religions teach that the rights of individuals must give way to the rights of humanity (naturally, the Illuminists will define what the rights of humanity are). Like National Socialists and Hindus, New Agers often place the lives of animals above the lives of people. New Age religions are replacing secular humanism in the temples of the public schools as people become aware of the demoralizing effects of secular humanism. (To destroy Christianity, the Illuminists promote secular humanism because it leads to vast numbers of spiritually starved people, many of whom in their hunger will turn to the occult and other New Age religions where they will worship Lucifer, the God of Illuminism.)

Corporations, hospitals, universities, public schools, and even federal agencies are promoting New Age practices, if not New Age religions themselves. Diversity training, value clarification, Zen, and Transcendental Meditation are among the most popularly promoted practices.

As New Age religions can absorb all religions except Christianity, Christianity must be destroyed. To destroy Christianity, the Illuminists have worked unceasingly to erode Christian values and to create apathy in the Church. They have labored to starve spiritually the masses by secularizing society. To feed the spiritual starved, the Illuminists offer Lucifer’s New Age religions.

Among Congressmen who were the leading promoters of the New Age revolution when they were in Congress were New Gingrich (Republican, member of CFR, 33rd degree Freemason), Mark Hatfield (Republican, Freemason, and supporter of global depopulation), Arlen Specter (Republican, Freemason, and ardent supporter of one world government), and Charlie Rose (Democrat).[1]

Included among the financial supports of the New Age movements are Blue Cross-Blue Shield, Lockheed Aircraft, and Rockefeller Foundation.[2]

Sun Moon and the Unification Church
The most dangerous New Age religions are those that give the appearance of being Christian but are really counterfeits. Sun Moon’s Unification Church typifies this type of church. Sun Moon’s Unification Church is perhaps the largest new age cult religious organization. Financing this church is the Korean CIA with money from the United States CIA. Moon is an ardent anti-Communist. Not only is Moon a leader in corrupting the Christian religion with false Christian doctrine, he is also a leader in destroying the Aryan people through miscegenation. Besides promoting miscegenation, Moon rejects the divine nature of Jesus—reducing him to being merely a man who perfectly understood God’s will—and Jesus’ return to Earth—Moon, who claims to be sinless, is the Lord of the Second Coming. Jesus failed in his mission because he did not marry and procreate holy offspring. Moon claims that Jesus accomplished only partial salvation; another (presumably, Moon) is needed to complete the work of Jesus and bring complete salvation. He makes himself, not Jesus, as the object of faith. He has been accused of teaching salvation through sexual intercourse with someone whom God has blessed. While traditional Christian ordinances of baptism and communion are avoided, seances, clairvoyance, and other occult practices are accepted. Moon also claims to receive revelations from God. To his brand of “Christianity,” he has incorporated Taoism, mysticism, and spiritualism. Like all Illuminists, Moon wants to establish a global government and a one world religion; both of which will be merged into one. Moon controls the Washington Times, which backs neo-conservatives.

Scientology
In 1950, Lafayette Ronald Hubbard, a science-fiction writer, unveiled his dianetics, the essence of Scientology. Scientology has become one of the most powerful and influential religious movements. Controlling the minds of others without their consent is the objective of many of the procedures of Scientology. It uses a combination of Catholic confession and psychotherapy. Its tenets include psychoanalysis and probing one’s prenatal influences, which are the cause of one’s present problems. Scientology teaches that man, who descended from gods, is basically good. However, he has a reactive mind of compulsions and inhibitions that can be, and need to be, contacted and erased. Good and evil are a matter of opinion: Morality is relative, not absolute. To Scientology, God is irrelevant; only Scientology is relevant. God is ignored. Man is deified and can perfect himself through perfect reasoning. With his perfect reasoning, man can solve all human problems. Reincarnation is also part of the Scientology doctrine. Teaching that enlightenment is attained through a series of stages, Scientology is, in essence, a form of Gnosticism. It contains eight grades of clearness; the eighth grade is reached when all a person’s engram from prenatal influences and previous existence have been cleared. Its eight dynamics are “(1) to survive as an individual; (2) to survive through sex and family; (3) to survive as a group (school, society, town, and nation); (4) to survive as mankind; (5) to preserve animal and plant life; (6) to preserve the physical universe, including matter, energy, space and time; (7) to preserve spiritual existence; and (8) to preserve immortal existence.”[3] Scientology is a mixture of “‘Hindu Veda and Dharma, Taoism, Old Testament wisdom, Buddhist principles of brotherly love and compassion, the early Greeks, Lucretius, Spinosa, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer, Spencer and Freud.’”[4] The works of Alfred Korzybski (author of General Semantics), Grinker (American psychiatrists), Speigel (American psychiatrists), William Sargant (English psychiatrists), Aleister Crowley (the twentieth century’s greatest practitioner of black magic) are also incorporated. Scientology is essentially a mixture of science fiction and magic. Although Hubbard disdained Christianity and called Christ a “hypnotic implant,” he, nevertheless, dressed Scientology in Christian garb and claimed it to be a nondenominational church. It offers no one a way to salvation.

Blavatsky and Theosophy
An important ancestor of the New Age religions is Theosophy. Theosophy is closely related to Freemasonry theologically.

Theosophy combines Eastern philosophical religious teachings with Western. Beginning with the essence of God, it arrives at the spiritual nature of the Universe. It claims knowledge of God’s person through direct knowledge, physical processes, and philosophical speculation. It uses speculative mysticism to explain how sin in this world can coexist with an omnipotent, holy God. Theosophists believe that God is impersonal and that man can perfect himself. “Man is god in the making.” Man faces no final judgment. “Hell” is a state of purgatory where souls of the dead stay until they are reincarnated. Thus, reincarnation is one of its tenets. Jesus becomes merely a pious religious leader who was martyred. Theosophy holds that God has revealed himself to the world long before Jesus arrived. The ancient myths and legends of the Egyptians, Greeks, Indians, and other people are variations of the same revelation. Likewise, the Christian Scriptures are merely a variation of this revelation. Theosophy is a form of Pantheism. Types of theosophists include Neoplatonists, Gnostics, and Cabalists.

Helena Petrovna Blavatsky is the mother of modern-day Theosophy and the modern-day New Age movement. Her Theosophy borrowed heavily from the Jewish Cabala, especially the anti-Christian aspects of the Cabala, for she fervently hated Christianity. She viewed Lucifer (Satan) “as the real creator and benefactor, the Father of Spiritual mankind.” Lucifer, not Jesus, is man’s savior. Satan, a heavenly spirit who deceives mankind, as orthodox Christianity conceives him, does not exist in Theosophy; instead Satan is glorified for his pride, independence, and rebelliousness. Secretly directing evolution of mankind is an elite group called “Great Masters,” “Adepts,” and “Great White Brotherhood.” Blavatsky typically referred to this group as “Ascended Masters of Wisdom.” They are highly evolved souls who, after many reincarnations, have left the earthly sphere for the spiritual realm. Building upon a base of Hinduism and Buddhism, Theosophy synthesized philosophy, religion, and science.

Blavatsky claimed that she had spent many years traveling through Tibet where she had been initiated into the Mysteries of the occult and through India. When some of her followers in India were arrested for homosexual acts, she left for the United States. Rene Guenon claims that she came to the United States from Paris and that she was probably never in Tibet. Her teachers were Paulos Metamon (a magician and conjuror), Mazzini (who initiated her into the Carbonari in 1856), and Victor Michel (a Freemason, mesmerist, and spiritualist). Serapis Bey and Tuiti Bey, who were Cabalists and members of the Egyptian Brothers, were probably her masters in Paris. She and Albert Pike were socially close. Blavatsky knowingly and willingly rejected God of the Christians, the father of Christ Jesus, and accepted Lucifer as her god.

Regardless who sent her, she arrived in the United States in 1872 and founded her Theosophical Society in 1875 with the aid of William Q. Judge and Henry S. Olcott. Olcott became the first president. Other members included Dr. Seth Pancoast, Thomas Edison, and, briefly, Albert Pike. Pancoast and George Felt were vice-presidents. Felt was a professor of mathematics and Egyptology and a member of the Hermetic Brotherhood of Luxor, which later expelled him.

Annie Besant, who had become a disciple of Blavatsky in 1889, gained control of the Theosophical Society following Blavatsky’s death in 1891, and in 1907 she became president. Besant was a member of the National Secular Society and a preacher of free thought. She advocated socialism and was a founder of the Fabian Society. She founded the English branch of the Theosophical Society and later the Indian branch. She was also vice-president and great teacher of the Supreme Council of the International Order of Co-Masonry.

Blavatsky was primarily interested in the occult sciences. She cared little about politics and schemes of material welfare. She claimed that socialism and Communism were both “disguised conspiracies of brutal force and selfishness against honest labor.”[5] Besant, however, was more political minded and organized the Society on a political basis to advocate socialism and world government.

Blavatsky thought that the teachings of Gautama Buddha were a perfection of Hinduism and wanted to rehabilitate Buddhism. Besant thought that the doctrines of the Brahmans were the purer faith. Yet Besant did not introduce Brahmanism or Buddhism into her lodges in Europe; she introduced her own occult system.

The objectives of the Theosophical Society are “The World Religion, The World University, and the World Government (by the Restoration of the Mysteries, i.e., by the recognition of their place as the World Government as they were recognized in ancient days, the place they have ever continued to occupy. . .).”[6] Theologically, the Theosophical Society is Gnostic and anti-Christian. Out of the teachings and philosophy of the Theosophical Society came the New Age movement of the twentieth century.

Arcane School and World Union
Freemasonry is behind the New Age movement in general and the Theosophical Society, which is basically a front for Freemasonry’s religious doctrines, in particular. Related to the Theosophical Society are the Lucis Trust, the Arcane Schools, the Triangles, and World Goodwill (which merged with the World Union in 1961). The Lucis Trust promotes the belief in the Hierarchy, also known as Ascended Masters, Masters of Wisdom, and the Elder Brothers. These Hierarchs are extremely wise men, who through successive reincarnations have become gods. Lucis Trust also promotes the United Nations, one world government with a socialist world economy. (It runs the only religious chapel at the United Nations’ headquarters—thus, affirming the Satanic nature of the United Nations.) Lucis Trust and its allied organizations serve as an intermediary between Freemasonry and allied secret societies and the public. Its goal is to condition the masses to accept the spiritual principles of Illuminism and its New World Order.

The Arcane Schools train people for high-level work in the New Age movement. The Triangles are meditation groups of three people. World Goodwill distributed literature promoting theosophy. After its merger with World Union, it distributed literature promoting world government.

Alice Ann Bailey, a Theosophist, established the Lucis Trust, World Goodwill, Triangles, Arcane School, and New Group of World Servers. Bailey was anti-Jewish and anti-Christian. Her many books were written through her by her spirit guide. In building the infrastructure and articulating the strategy of the modern New Age movement, she is probably the most important person.

World Union is leading the way toward world government through the World Constitution Parliament Association (WCPA). Philip Isely was the principal organizer of the World Constitution Parliament Association, which was founded in 1959. The objective of this association is to create a framework for establishing a one-world government. To promote global governance, it uses environmentalism, i.e., creating fear and hysteria that mankind is irrecoverably destroying the environment and the only way to prevent this ravishing of the environment is to establish an all-powerful centralized world government. Claiming to represent the people of Earth (have you ever voted for any member of this association to represent you?), it has drafted a constitution for its world government and is lobbying countries to ratify it.

By urging the United Nations to establish itself quickly as a world government with absolute power over the countries and peoples of the world, the World Constitution Parliament Association serves to apply pressure from below in “the name of the people.” Thus, it gives the Illuminists an excuse for establishing a global dictatorship—the people are forcing them to do it.

Psychotherapy
For the less spiritually inclined, the Illuminists offer psychotherapy as a substitute for religion. Like many other New Age religions, it treats man as though he is an autonomous being, who is the center of the Universe and the measure of all things. Psychotherapy, which includes psychology and psychiatry, is closely related to Hinduism. It offers fulfillment without God and explains human behavior without moral absolutes. If a person feels guilt about homosexual practices, the psychotherapist strives to convince the patient that homosexuality is normal, and thus, he should experience no guilt. So, if a person feels a desire, that desire must be satisfied without regards to any moral principle—or else insanity will result.

Psychotherapy has become an important weapon in advancing Illuminism. It teaches moral relativism, and anyone who believes in moral absolutes is obviously mentally ill if not insane. Thus, psychotherapy justifies the socialist concept of redistribution of material wealth. Furthermore, the National Association for Mental Health claims that the “principles of mental heath cannot be successfully furthered in any society unless there is progressive acceptance of the concept of world citizenship.”[7] The typical psychotherapist believes that anyone who opposes Illuminism or any of its programs needs therapy and is well on his way to becoming mentally ill if he is not already mentally ill. (Dr. G. Brock Chisholm and his associates define mental illness as a “sense of loyalty to a particular nation, a sense of loyalty to a moral code, strict adherence to concepts of right and wrong, opposition to foreign aid or communism.”[8] Psychotherapy is used to silence people who oppose Illuminism by proclaiming them mentally ill—often without any examination. (Fortunately, not all psychologists and psychiatrists are followers of Chisholm’s doctrines.)

Ecumenism

Ecumenism

Thomas Allen

[Editor’s note: The footnotes in the original are omitted.]

The Illuminists have used ecumenical movement as one of its tools to take over the Church. (The true Church of Christ is the greatest spiritual and temporal enemy and threat of the Illuminists.) The ecumenical movement seeks to unify all Protestant churches and ultimately all Christians. To accomplish this goal, it encourages an undenominational church. It disregards all forms of Church polity and does not care about the Church being an August body of saints. It emphasizes common religious teachings and beliefs.

The ecumenical movement was formalized in England in 1846 in the Evangelical Alliance and in the United States in 1867. Later in 1908, the Federal Council of Church of Christ, which later became the National Council of Churches of Christ, was organized as the leading proponent of the ecumenical movement in the United States. The World Council of Churches, which consists of more than 200 Protestant, Eastern Orthodoxy, and Old Catholic bodies, has become the principal instrument of ecumenicity.

Thus, Christian religion was attacked overtly and covertly. The covert attack against religion primarily took the form of ecumenicalism. All religious differences were ignored. Everything, except orthodoxy, was tolerated. Defenders of orthodoxy were ridiculed. Defenders of Biblical Christianity were slandered. Biblical revelation was meaningless; religious truths were derived from nature, not from revelation. The Bible was reduced to meaninglessness by subverting it to mean whatever one wanted it to mean. Religious unity must be achieved at all cost.

The covert attack took the form of stressing scepticism, materialism, naturalism, Pantheism, and homosexualism. Pornography was also another important overt weapon against Christianity. Anything that would lead to a moral breakdown was used.

World Council of Churches and National Council of Churches
One important actor in supplanting the religion of Jesus with the religion of Lucifer is the World Council of Churches. The World Council of Churches was founded in 1948; its founding began the modern ecumenical era. Most mainline Protestant denominations in the United States are members of the World Council of Churches. Heavily influenced by Freemasonry, it is interconnected with the World Constitutional Parliament Association and is a co-conspirator in bring about Lucifer’s New World Order. Its funding comes in part from the Rockefeller Foundation. Its goal is to unite Christianity to make bringing it into the New World Order easier. Christians should embrace Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, and all other religions as equal in value to Christianity—interfaithism. With Vatican II, the Catholic Church joined the ecumenical movement and interfaithism. Ecumenism seeks to unify the Christian churches. Interfaithism seeks to unify all the religions of the world. As Communists and communist agents and sympathizers run the World Council of Churches, it is also a strong supporter of Communism. It has financed terrorists in Africa, who have slaughtered not only Blacks, but also Christian missionaries.

Closely allied with the World Council of Churches is the National Council of Churches. The purpose of the National Council of Churches is to promote Illuminism, especially Communism, among the churches in the United States. It also lobbies political leaders on behalf of communist causes. To advance Illuminism, one of its goals is to destroy the family. To achieve this goal, it has promoted feminism to destroy fatherhood and sex education to destroy the moral authority of the family. Members of the National Council of Churches have also promoted Black Nationalism and the Negro Revolution in the United States and have financially supported these movements. Like the World Council of Churches, the National Council of Churches strives to stripe the Bible of its authority—man should decide right and wrong based on the situation, i.e., moral absolutes do not exist.

In 1950, the Federal Council of Churches reorganized and merged with seven other interdenominational organizations to form the National Council of Churches. Of the 358 clergy who were voting delegates to the constituting convention of the National Council of Churches, 123 were associated with Communist projects and enterprises.[1]

Foundations

Foundations

[Editor’s note: Footnotes in the original are omitted.]

During the last half of the nineteenth century, the United States saw its wealthiest men becoming Illuminists and funding and otherwise supporting Illuminism. They included Andrew Carnegie, John D. (“competition is a sin”) Rockefeller, and J. P. Morgan. One of the greatest instruments in advancing Illuminism was the establishment of foundations, which funded illuministic causes in the twentieth century.

The major American foundations are the creation of Daniel Gilman, a German Illuminist and a member of Skull and Bones. In 1898, Gilman created the General Education Board by merging the Peabody Education Fund and the John F. Slater Fund. Gilman had been vice president of both funds. Later in 1902, the General Education Board became part of the Rockefeller’s Southern Education Board, which retained the name of General Education Board.

In 1907, he set up the Russell Sage Foundation. Assisting Gilmore in setting up the Russell Sage Foundation were Cleveland H. Dodge, a director of National City Bank, and Moses Pyne, grandson of the founder of National City Bank.

The first large scale foundation began with the wealth of George Peabody. Peabody left the slave trading business and moved to England. With the aid of Brown Brothers and Nathan Mayer Rothschild, Peabody established his banking house, George Peabody and Co., in England in 1835. Peabody made a fortune buying depressed notes during the Panic of 1837. He had become, by 1861, the largest trader of American securities in the world.

In 1865, Peabody founded the Peabody Education Fund, which worked closely with the occupying military forces in the South during Reconstruction. Ostensibly, the Peabody Education Fund was established to educate freed slaves following the War for Southern Independence. In reality it aided carpetbaggers to gain control of the South. They used their control of the governments of the Southern States to improvise them by saddling them with huge loans from Northern bankers. The Peabody Education Fund later became the General Education Board.

Junius S. Morgan, as the head of Beebe, Morgan and Co. of Boston, became Peabody’s agent in America. In 1854, Morgan became Peabody’s partner to form Peabody, Morgan and Co. Through this connection, Morgan and later his son, John Pierpont (J.P.) Morgan, Sr. collaborated closely with the Rothschild—so closely that Morgan was considered an agent of the Rothschild. With the retirement of Peabody in 1864, Junius Morgan and J.P. Morgan gained control of Peabody, Morgan and Co. and changed the name to Morgan and Co. Morgan and Co. became one of the most powerful banking houses in the world.

In 1864, Junius Morgan persuaded Charles H. Dabney to join with J.P. Morgan, Sr. to form Dabney, Morgan and Co., which was the agent of Morgan and Co. in the United States. In 1871, Anthony Drexel became a partner and the company changed its name to Drexel Morgan Co. When Drexel died in 1895, Morgan changed its name to J.P. Morgan and Co. This company soon became the principal source of funds for the United State government. With Rothschild’s gold, Morgan rescued the United States government following the Panic of 1893.

In the United States, J.P. Morgan, Sr. provided banking services for those who preferred not to do business with Jewish bankers. Kuhn, Loeb and Co., another banking firm allied closely with the Rothschilds, provided services for those who wanted to deal with a Jewish bank.

John D. Rockefeller followed Peabody’s example and established the Southern Educational Board. It was established to promote education without regard to race, creed, or sex—that is, it was established to promote racial amalgamation and the elimination of distinction between the sexes. It also promoted globalism and socialism in the public school system.

Andrew Carnegie, a spiritualist, built his fortune on looting the public treasury. To overcome objections to his fortune and how he got it, he, like many other wealthy Illuminists, built a reputation as a humanitarian philanthropist. Besides donating money to churches and public libraries, he established the Carnegie Institute (David Gilman set up the Carnegie Institute in 1902 and became its first president) and the Carnegie Hero Fund Commission. Having made a fortune from wars, Carnegie donated large sums to organizations that advocated consolidation of governmental powers into regional, supranational, and international bodies. As an opponent of nationalism, he supported establishing a League of Nations.

Carnegie was a fascist socialist at heart. He was an advocate of a strong central government. Government must control private business. He supported implementation of the planks of the Communist Manifesto, such as a central banking system and heavily progressively graduated income taxes (after he had protected his own fortune in foundations and trusts). He bought 18 newspapers in Great Britain to spread his radical ideas on abolishing the monarchy and the House of Lords, dismantling the British Empire, and disestablishing the Church of England. He supported a union of Great Britain, Canada, and the United States. Carnegie was drunk with Illuminism.

Theodore Marburg was another wealthy man who wanted to establish a world government. His scheme was to use Carnegie’s wealth, international financiers, and Fabian Socialists to form a League of Nations to enforce peace with an international “peace army.” Controlling this world government would be the international financiers.

The tax exempt foundations, like the Rockefeller Foundation, provided the financing that the Illuminists needed to gain control of education, religion, and government.

Much of the funding for the advancement of Illuminism during the twentieth century has come from the tax-exempt foundations. The major foundations are the Carnegie Corp., Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, Rockefeller Foundation, and Ford Foundation. Many less well known foundations, such as, the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, Carnegie Institute of Washington, Commonwealth Fund of New York, Fund for the Republic, Markle Foundation (a major source of funding for the Aspen Institute ), Rockefeller Brothers Fund, Samuel Rubin Foundation (a major source of funding for the Institute for Policy Studies), Starr Foundation, and Twentieth Century Fund, have also supported Illuminism. These tax-exempt foundations have also been a major source of funds for Communists and Communist sympathizers and their organizations. Illuminists controlled all these foundations. The goal of these foundations is to alter the life of the American people so that they will accept Illuminism and its New World Order with its one world government and one world religion.

The major foundations have specialized in supporting different aspects of Illuminism. The Ford Foundation specializes in altering the United States so that they “can be comfortably merged with the Soviet Union.”[1] The Carnegie Endowment specializes in controlling the foreign policy of the United States and using war to alter the life style of the American people. The Rockefeller Foundation and Guggenheim Foundation specialize in controlling education. While the Carnegie Endowment deals with international issues, the Rockefeller Foundation deals with domestic issues.

The foundations gained control of higher education by making colleges and universities dependent on them for research funds. They control “practically all social science research and such research is used to promote collectivism and world government.”[2] Grants from the United States government do not lessen this control because Illuminists also control the United States government and the Department of Education.

Along with other foundations, the Carnegie Endowment uses its wealth and power to maneuver the American people into war. War is the most effective way to persuade people to enslave and impoverish themselves. People are not inclined to question the acts of government, i.e., the acts of people who really control the government, during war. The longer the war, the more inclined people are to accept the changes as permanent—thus, Bush’s never-ending War on Terrorism.

On the power of tax-exempt foundations, Congressman B. Carroll Reece remarked in 1954:

It has been said that the foundations are a power second only to that of the Federal Government itself. Perhaps this statement should be modified because it seems to have become an affront for a congressional committee to dare to subject the foundations to criticism. Perhaps the Congress should now admit that the foundations have become more powerful, in some areas, at least, than the legislative branch of Government.[3]

These foundations are more powerful now than when he made this remark.

OSS and CIA

Office of Strategic Services and Central Intelligence Agency
Thomas Allen

[Editor’s note: Footnotes in the original are omitted.]

To collect and analyze intelligence for Illuminists and to organize and execute covert operations for Illuminists, Roosevelt created in 1942 the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) and appointed William J. Donovan as its head.

In 1915, the Rockefeller Foundation had sent Donovan to Europe on a war relief mission. J. P. Morgan, Jr. sent him to Europe in 1920 to obtain intelligence related to the issuance of bonds that Morgan’s Foreign Commercial Corp. was planning to float. During Hitler’s rise to power, Donovan had established a network of informants in the German government. Roosevelt selected Donovan to head the OSS because for two decades he had been carrying “out secret missions for the Morgans, Rockefellers, and Rothschilds.”[1] Before setting up the OSS, Roosevelt sent Donovan to the Tavistock Institute in London where British intelligence indoctrinated him. (To this day the Central Intelligence Agency uses the techniques of mind control taught at the Tavistock Institute.)[2]

British intelligence organized the OSS. Thus, the OSS was merely a front for British intelligence. Four members of the British Chief of Staff set up the OSS. They were Lord Louis Mountbatten, who was related to the King of England and the banking families of Rothschild and Cassel; Charles Hambro, director of Special Operations Executive and director of Hambros bank; Colonel Stewart Menzies, head of the British Secret Intelligence Service; and William Stephenson, head of the Special Intelligence Section (SIS).

With aid from the Rockefellers, Stephenson and the SIS operated the British espionage network in the United States. Stephenson’s task was to provoke war between the United States and Germany. Donovan provided special passports for Stephenson’s agents and otherwise assisted him.[3]

Many people that Donovan employed in the OSS were Communists, many of whom were veterans of the Abraham Lincoln Brigade. He knew that they were Communists and employed them because they were Communists.

In 1943, Donovan went to Moscow to establish a permanent alliance between the OSS and the NKVD. Assisting Donovan in this endeavor was W. Averell Harriman. The alliance was to allow the NKVD to have offices in various American cities and to exchange officers with the OSS. Fearing bad publicity in his upcoming election, Roosevelt withdrew his support for the alliance.

Truman abolished the OSS in 1945. The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) was established in 1948 and assumed the intelligence work of the OSS. Allen Dulles of J. Schroder Banking Corp., William H. Jackson, a Wall Street lawyer, and Mathias F. Correa, a Wall Street lawyer supervised the organization of the CIA. Dulles became the first director of the CIA. The law establishing the CIA gave it immunity for all civil and criminal laws.

One of the first tasks of the CIA was to scare Americans and Europeans with propaganda about the might of the Soviet Union. (As it turned out, the Soviet Union’s threat was a chimera.) In Europe, the objective of this propaganda was to scare Europeans away from neutrality. In America, it was used to fund the military-industrial complex, most of which Illuminists owned, and to scare the American people to surrender liberty for security by allowing nearly unchecked growth in the U.S. government, which the Illuminists controlled. To carry out this program, the CIA funded media organizations and hired journalists, editors, and others connected with the news media. Many major news outlets became willing co-conspirators with the CIA—after all, the Illuminists controlled them—to dispense its propaganda and disinformation.

One of the most influential magazines on the right was National Review founded by (former?) CIA agent William Buckley. Also involved in the founding of National Review was James Burnham and Wilmoore Kendall, both of whom were CIA agents. William Casey, who was involved with the OSS and who later became director of the CIA, drew up the legal documents for the magazine.

The CIA continued Donovan’s policy of hiring Communists. Soviet KGB defectors have claimed that the CIA has Soviet spies within it. Members of Skull and Bones have essentially controlled the CIA from its founding. Since its establishment, the CIA has never undergone an outside investigation. One was attempted in the 1950s, but Vice-President Nixon squashed it.

The CIA collects and analyzes intelligence not only for the United States government, but also for Establishment Insiders. With bribes and coercion, it influences foreign elections for the advancement of the New World Order. As Truman remarked, it even makes its own wars.

Some of the people who have studied the assassination of President John Kennedy are convinced that the CIA was behind it. Kennedy may have been assassinated because he was planning to withdraw from the Vietnam War, which the Illuminists wanted escalated. He also wanted to reduce the U.S. government’s reliance on and the importance of the Federal Reserve System by having the U.S. government issuing notes directly instead of indirectly through the Federal Reserve System—an action apparently disapproved by the bankers. Another action taken by Kennedy that led to his assassination was that he fired Dulles and wanted to weaken the power of the CIA. Additionally. He opposed Israel’s development of nuclear weapons. Among the people believed to have been involved in the assassination were James Angleton (the CIA’s liaison with the Israeli Mossad), George H. Bush, Allen Dulles, J. Edgar Hoover, Vice-President Lyndon Johnson, and Nelson Rockefeller.[4]
