I understand the Illuminati was established May 1, 1776 by Adam Weishaupt(some believe he was only "reviving" the organization that was already existing). It was said to have been made WITHIN the organization of the FreeMasons, so a secret society inside a secret society.
Then I've heard of links between the Occult and FreeMasons; their members attempting to use science and establish new government systems(oddly similar to the Illuminati's goals and such).
Is there a chance they are three different names for the same thing? Or perhaps all linked in a way closer than just being a little similar in their ways of going about membership and science over religion?
Please help me understand this all.
I'm very confused. This internet search isn't turning up anything I don't already know. I've been searching answers for about a week now.
Oh, one more question! The Occult is often referred to as "Satanic" but during my research it speaks of a society who is only trying to understand the inner-beings of life. There is no devil worship(like today's rip-off occult members who mock religion by playing with demonology and satanism, blah blah blah.). So, why are they called satanists if they are merely trying to find answers to living things?
It reminds me how people call wicken a satanic group; a group that is clearly all for nature, NOT satan.
