Illuminati Handbook

Those in power craft culture and government and policies in order to make them susceptible to control by the will of others and against developing their own will. Like training a pack of dogs. This is evident in the world around us. There's no way kings weren't impressed with their dog trainers and take some tips from them. And there's no way these things aren't written down somewhere where the rich and powerful can access it but it's somewhat less accessible to the masses who might take the dog comparison to be unfavorable.

These texts were hand-written back in the old days, but the ruling class of the 21st century is somewhat less interested in reading these days than in satisfying their every desire. And so training videos were filmed instead.

What you're about to listen to is audio from those video tapes. Our men were able to smuggle a set of VHS tapes out. They were intended to be destroyed when the newer DVDs were sent out. So some of their plans may have changed since the mid 1980s, but I think what we found will be enough to chew on for some time. Let's begin with Volume 1 tape 1: Overview and Initiation.

(Do cool audio and music and VHS tape warble. Give it an early 80s Epcot Center vibe. Evil Epcot is the aesthetic.)

Religion. This is a really touchy subject. God/Satan, The Spirit Realm. The may or may not exist. We're sure you have your own opinion and proof one way or the other that we may present you with would persuade you one way or the other. What we can tell you is that ritual works. The mechanics of that you can fill in with whatever theory you prefer. Divine power, magic, psychology, some mumbo jumbo made out of misunderstanding quantum theory. Pick one. But know that ritual works. Rituals can empower the individual, or can open one up to be controlled by others. Your average Sunday Church contains rituals designed to encourage people to give up their will to others. God ostensibly. But we leave the crack open for any person in a position of power and authority to also take the reigns. Rituals designed to strengthen the individual will, on the otherhand are discouraged for the masses and made available to you much later in these video series.

In old times practiioners were murdered for being witches or heretics. these days, much like many of our current policies, it is merely necessary to maintain a majority with week wills and who follow our suggestions unquestioningly. Humans are a social species and if you get 50% of a population to follow unquestioningly, they will define acceptible behavior patterns that another 40 percent will follow out of convenience even if they question. a 10% minority living outside of our control is acceptable and unthreatening to our plans. And these populations are easily jailed. Just make key traits of theirs illegal and lock away any poor people who do those things.

That won't stop you of course. We have each others backs, we don't prosecute each other, and we can afford not only the best lawyers, we can also afford the best judges and juries if you catch our meaning.
