Subject: Re: (exotica) shriners? (Long)
Oh my darlings,
First, Hi, I'm new and haven't posted yet-kinda lurking. Anyways, this is an interesting little thread right now, and I want no one to take offense to how I'm going to word this.
Everyone who has posted info on the Shriners are shockingly misinformed, and naive. They are not also know as the Masons, they are a subdivison of the Masons, or Freemasons. Now, the Freemasons are a subdivision of the Illuminati, which is the secret society of bankers, tradesmen, royalty, governmental members, and generally the rich and powerful in the world, that control the world. Don't believe me? There's so much info I won't be able to cram it into 1, or 5, or 5,000 emails, and I'm not going to subject anyone to that.
Anyways, for a long long time, as in, middle ages ago, the Catholics and the Freemasons or Illuminati were basically at war over who should control the world. Now, however, the world is populated all over and the Catholics are no longer the big huge religion they once were-remember, way back in the day contact with places such as Asia was rather difficult, what with no electricity and such. For a long time, centuries, Catholics couldn't become Masons, so the Knights of Columbus were invented so they could have their own secret society. However, sometime in the early 1970s I think, the Pope issued a doctrine stating Catholics could now become Masons. Why do you think this is? Because the Catholics and Freemasons have the same interest, ie, controlling the earth and everyone on it-the New World Order. Not just an idea of George Bush's. So they've joined forces. And every president the US has ever had has been a Freemason...the Harvard and Yale societies, The Order of the!
Skull and Bones or whatever, is a subdivision of the Freemasons. The US was started for the New World Order and so far, they've kinda failed. And Hitler's whole deal happened to start the New World Order, which is why the US took so long to get involved, they wanted it to happen. But then Hitler got real stupid and greedy and we stepped in.
So back to the Shriners-sure they do charity work. It's all a front. They want people to think they're nice and decent but really, they are the lowest degree of Masons. There's all kinds of webpages and books on it, the Rosicruicians, the Freemasons, the Knights of Columbus, the Illuminati. Check out R.A. Wilson's "Illuminatus Trilogy"-it's not exactly fiction.
It's scary shit, hard to believe, but the world is being controlled by people who are evil. It's a vast conspriacy, and I promise I'm not some freaky sociopath or anything either. Look it up.

You are attributing an awful lot of power to an organization that is, at
worst, an old-boys network. I've read Robert Anton Wilson as well and it is
an intentionally funny read in that he has worked every half-baked loopy
conspiracy theory into a unified whole.
So...you forgot to mention Black Helicopters, Hitler's Antarctic UFO bases
and the Knights Templar. All of whom live in the hollow Earth.

HellKitton@aol.com,
> shockingly misinformed, and naive:
> They are not also know as the Masons, they are a subdivison of the Masons, or Freemasons. Now, the Freemasons are a subdivision of the Illuminati
The Freemasons started as a guild of master builders in late medieval times, whereas the Illuminati were founded much later, in the 18th century. So the first cannot be a subdivision of the latter. Both organizations like many others got their mysterious reputation mostly from the fact that they actually kept secrets, the masons for instance the knowledge of house building techniques. The Illuminati were a club of Bavarian intellectuals and they were secret, simply because they were 'verboten' to meet and speak in public at that time.
The word Shriner sounds exactely like the German word Schreiner, which means carpenter, so I guess the origin of the Shriners is also a guild like organization, for carpenters.
The sad thing about these kind of wild and exaggerated conspiracy theories of Erica and others is, that, if someone seriously attempts to point on certain factual proceedings, that could be called conspiracies, such as the Gulf war or the Kosovo war, s/he is automatically in bad company of these ridiculous theories and nobody listens anymore. It's destructive to be so unprecise; if you look on certain conspiracy theories in terms of conspiracy theories, you could as well call them part of the conspiracy, a disinformation to obscure the truth. Why f.i. should the Shriners "want the people to think they're nice and decent", when they really want something evil? They could achieve the evil goals without a nice Shriner "front" and silly parades. Ever thought about it?

Subject: Re: (exotica) shriners? (Long)
OK, this is one of the most ridiculous, uninformed posts I've seen in a long
time. The Freemasons originated with mason guilds (professional
associations) in the middle ages. They became freemasons per se in the 18th
century in England. The French branch seceded in the mid-19th century
because it was insisting on being a lay organization supporting values such
as education for all and the Republic (values that you, Erica, perhaps,
don't share?) while the British were attached to a more spiritual strain.
Your harebrained drivel about the masons being in the same boat with the
Catholics is plain ridiculous. Freemasons were condemned by the Church in
1738, and they don't remain in the best of terms. As for your mind-blowingly
ignorant conspiracy theories, nobody in their right minds and with a minimum
of education believes that crap anymore. But then you also perhaps believe
in creationism, something that nobody in any Western, educated democracy
(save for the US) takes seriously.
Sadly you're not a "freaky sociopath," as you yourself joke, just an
ignoramus.

The conspiracy that worries me is the Conspiracy of Stupidity. It is
powerful, universal and infinitely adaptable... operating automatically,
with no need for leaders, planning or coordination... its countless agents
unaware of their function. We all serve as its tools now and then.

I think the Conspiracy of Stupidity isn't quite as worrisome as the
Conspiracy of Intolerance, which is certainly making it's presence known on
this mailing list.

Subject: (exotica) re:thrifts and lawn sales
all this talk of thrifts and lawn sales reminds me of the following little
story. my mom used to be a real estate agent and one of her customers sold
her some records. among them were one of the leonard nimoy lps, and a
soundtrack to "laugh-in". recently when i was shrinking my record collection
to make it easier for my parents to take care of since i wasn't sure when or
if i would be returning to the states from this stint in taiwan i gave
nearly all my thrift/exotica records to some friends.(yma sumac 10"s, martin
denny, les baxter, esquivel, etc...) anyways, among the records i kept were
the leonard one as well as my sealed space 1999 record which for some reason
i haven't felt was right to open yet. i must admit i do miss going to
thrifts and buying vinyl but for now its really not an option.
