...Were the Knights Templars really Christians? Knights Templars, founded in 1118 ad, were the strongest and bravest of all the fighters at this time. They were put into effect because many christians were being killed while traveling to the holy land, by muslims. Their dress was simple because of the vow of poverty they had to follow. Most believe they had a huge red cross on their chest when in fact it was covering their heart. The cross was not added to the knights until Pope Eugenius III allowed them to wear them in 1147ad. The Knights Templars were accused of One-hundred twenty seven faults against christianity including; homosexuality, and devil worship. How can you call your self a Christian and preform such evil things. In Tafi Olsen’s article The Templars; Before Christianity was legalized in Rome Arians were already trying to give Christianity a fault, by saying that Christ himself is greater than God the father. Christians believe in the trinity God the father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. With there being a claim against Christianity before it has even been legalized, makes it easier for people to find fault or disprove Christianity (Olsen). The Travis 2 devil is always going to be trying to put Christianity down and work his way to the top faster and better then any evil thing on earth or in a realm we don't understand....

...Who Really are the Freemasons? Throughout modern history, an organization known as the Freemasons has created controversy and raised many questions about the true purpose or purposes behind their activities. It is said to be the world’s oldest and largest fraternity. It proclaims itself to be a group “comprised of adult men (18+) of good character from every country, religion, race, age, income, education, and opinion, who believe in a supreme being.”(What is Freemasonry?). Furthermore, the Freemasons claim to promote the idea that “each man has responsibility to improve himself while being devoted to his family, faith, country, and fraternity.”(What is Freemasonry?). This sounds innocent enough, but does it provide a full picture of Freemasonry? While always a secretive organization, several events in modern times have led to an increased interest in the Freemasonry and suspicions about the actual reasons for their existence. How did the Freemasonry begin? One theory is that the Freemasons were originally a group of tradesmen who worked as masons. (www.grandlodge-tn.org) A mason is, by dictionary definition, “a person whose trade is building with units of various natural or artificial mineral products, as stones, bricks, cinder blocks, or tiles, usually with the use of mortar or cement as a bonding agent”. (www.dictionary.com). And according to historical records, the Freemasons began as illegal trade unions of stonemasons in England during the...

...It is also important to note that the definition says the parties to a conspiracy are doing the same things, or advancing common objectives, but not at all necessarily are they all doing so for the same personal reasons or motivations. So the essential focus of conspiratorial research should be on the actions of individuals, not merely their backgrounds or organizational affiliations. Down through the ages there have been many secret societies and conspiratorial movements desired absolute rule of the world, the overthrow of all existing governments, and the final destruction of all religion. It is possible to trace the origins and developments of these many movements, such as the early anti-Christian mysticism of the Gnostics; the conspiracy against orthodox Islam and for world power that was founded by Hasan Saba in Persia in 1090 A.D. as the Order of the Assassins; the Catholic Order of the Knights Templar, whose heretical leaders imitated the Assassins' system for the destruction of Christianity. During the thirteenth through seventeenth centuries such groups as the Luciferians, Rosicrucians, Levellers, and many others continued the war against Christianity that had begun in Europe with the Templars. It is even possible to establish that some of these...

...Illuminati's Exposed by Michelle When a few people wish to control and direct a mass of humanity, there are certain key structures that have to be in place. These are the same whether you are seeking to manipulate an individual, family, tribe, town, country, continent, or planet. First, you have to set the "norms", what is considered right and wrong, possible or impossible, sane or insane, good & bad. Most of the people follow those norms without question because of the baa-baa mentality, which has prevailed within the collective human mind for at least thousands of years. Second, you have to make life very unpleasant for those few who challenge your imposed "norms". Those who beat to a different drum like me or voice a different view, or version of the "truth" & lifestyle, stand out like a black sheep in the human herd. Your ancestorial governments/dictators have already conditioned the human herd to accept your norms as reality and so, in their arrogance & ignorance, they then ridicule or condemn those with a different and often times more accurate spin on life. Most of the time, you pressurize those who have a different spin on life to conform and stop free thinking. Parents do this to their children. The self-policing of the human herd goes far deeper than people in uniform or administrators of government. It starts with conditioned parents who impose their conditioning on their children and press ure them to follow their religious, political, economic, and...

...Bloodlines of Illuminati by: Fritz Springmeier, 1995 Introduction: I am pleased & honored to present this book to those in the world who love the truth. This is a book for lovers of the Truth. This is a book for those who are already familiar with my past writings. An Illuminati Grand Master once said that the world is a stage and we are all actors. Of course this was not an original thought, but it certainly is a way of describing the Illuminati view of how the world works. The people of the world are an audience to which the Illuminati entertain with propaganda. Just one of the thousands of recent examples of this type of acting done for the public was President Bill Clinton’s 1995 State of the Union address. The speech was designed to push all of the warm fuzzy buttons of his listening audience that he could. All the green lights for acceptance were systematically pushed by the President’s speech with the help of a controlled congressional audience. The truth on the other hand doesn’t always tickle the ear and warm the ego of its listeners. The light of truth in this book will be too bright for some people who will want to return to the safe comfort of their darkness. I am not a conspiracy theorist. I deal with real facts, not theory. Some of the people I write about, I have met. Some of the people I expose are alive and very dangerous. The darkness has never liked the light. Yet, many of the secrets of the Illuminati are locked up tightly simply because secrecy is a way...

...mystic that Meister Eckhart excelled. In his day Meister Eckhart enjoyed success as a popular preacher and churchman of high rank in his order, the Dominicans. However, Meister Eckhart was the only theologian of the medieval period to be formally charged with heresy. The shock of his trial for heresy and the condemnation of some of his work by Pope John XXII in Argo Dominco has cast a shadow over his reputation and a lingering suspicion over his orthodoxy that has lasted to this day. This research paper will focus on the intellectual and social history of Meister Eckhart. The development in thought of any theologian emerges from the life world of the theologian. [4] The life world is formed by the meeting of the cultural, social, and religious history of the day. Theologians are continually searching for new and meaningful ways to interpret religious experience. Meister Eckhart interpreted the religious experience of his day in a way that no others at the time did. I will explore in this paper some of the intellectual forces at work at the time and how he interpreted and connected with these. Secondly, it is important to understand the social history of the time. No theologians' thought is ever formed by simply offering commentary on previous thinkers. As a preacher Meister Eckhart would certainly have been aware of the needs and various expressions of the community. I will explore some of the religious social movements that emerged from the life world of the era, particularly...

I. 머리말 1. 문제 2008년 글로벌 금융위기 이후 새로운 국제금융질서를 모색하기 위한 범세계적인 노력이 전개되고 있다. 특히, 자본시장과 금융회사들에서 발생한 리스크가 적절히 통제되지 못하고 금융위기의 직접적인 원인이 되었으므로 이에 관한 문제의 포착과 해법의 발견에 많은 노력이 기울여지고 있다. 과도하게 복잡해지고 지나친 레버리 지를 사용한 금융상품의 거래 비중이 높아졌으나 그에 대한 각국 정부의 감독부족과 시장 투명성 확보 실패, 금융회사의 내부통제 기능 마비가 문제였음이 지적된다. 통상 서브프라임 모기지 시장의 붕괴와 파생금융상품의 과도한 판매와 유통이 금융 위기의 직접적인 원인이 되었다고 지적되나1) 글로벌 금융위기는 아직도 계속되고 있기 때문에 그 원인에 대한 본격적인 학술적인 연구는 아직 출현이 이르다. 금융 위기의 과정과 거대 금융기관들의 몰락, 구조조정을 다루는 책과 논문들이 이제 서서히 등장하고 있을 뿐이다. 아마도 이는 후세의 역사가들에게 1차 세계대전의 원인이 어디에 있었는지를 규명하는 작업처럼 어려운 과제가 될 것이다. 글로벌 금융위기의 발원지인 미국에서는 포괄적인 금융개혁이 진행되고 있으며 그 중 가장 중요한 것으로 상업은행업무와 투자은행업무를 다시 분리시키려는...

...DIVINATION SYSTEMS Written by Nicole Yalsovac Additional sections contributed by Sean Michael Smith and Christine Breese, D.D. Ph.D. Introduction Nichole Yalsovac Prophetic revelation, or Divination, dates back to the earliest known times of human existence. The oldest of all Chinese texts, the I Ching, is a divination system older than recorded history. James Legge says in his translation of I Ching: Book Of Changes (1996), “The desire to seek answers and to predict the future is as old as civilization itself.” Mankind has always had a desire to know what the future holds. Evidence shows that methods of divination, also known as fortune telling, were used by the ancient Egyptians, Chinese, Babylonians and the Sumerians (who resided in what is now Iraq) as early as six‐thousand years ago. Divination was originally a device of royalty and has often been an essential part of religion and medicine. Significant leaders and royalty often employed priests, doctors, soothsayers and astrologers as advisers and consultants on what the future held. Every civilization has held a belief in at least some type of divination. The point of divination in the ancient world was to ascertain the will of the gods. In fact, divination is so called because it is assumed to be a gift of the divine, a gift from the gods. This gift of obtaining knowledge of the unknown uses a wide range of tools and an enormous variety of ...
