Poll: Do you believe there is such a thing as an Illuminati?
And I don't mean the Bavarian Illuminati of the 18th century
I mean an informal network of very powerful people who co-operate to (try and) run the world according to their common interests - using their informal influence over others, to pull strings
"The all-seeing eye of divine providence"
Commonly associated with The Illuminati
By "illuminati" I mean an organised power elite, who have great social, cultural, and political influence - not necessary formal power or even obscene wealth
I use the word "illuminati" as an adjective, not a noun
And I doubt very much that they are "illuminated" as in being in possession of secret knowledge!
I do not believe for a minute that this ever happens:
I do not believe that they have big meetings or sing songs together!
And I wouldn't call it a conspiracy either - they don't need to conspire, they have plenty of power as it is
I would not class it as a "secret society" - I'd call it a network of informed elites who each know what is in their common interest and who act accordingly
Basically, I see it as the ruling class informally organising itself, behind the scenes
I think there is, it would explain a lot
But what do you think? Please answer the poll and explain your answer!
