The 'Illuminati', an organized in 1776 by Adam Weishaupt (1748-1830) in Ingolstadt Bavaria; the original was the Bavarian Illuminati with an initial membership of five. Although the membership rolls were kept secret, eventually around 2000 throughout Europe, some known members were:
Baron Adolph von Knigge
Ferdinand of Brunswick
Franz Xaver von Zwack
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Johann Gottfried Herder
Count Alessandrodi Cagliostro
When Karl Theodore became ruler of Bavaria in 1777 and secret societies were banned by an edict of 1785, including the Illuminati. Weishaupt fled and his documents and correspondence were seized. Van Zwak's premises was searched and all of the groups literature was found. The entire organization disbanded and any whose name had not been uncovered did not want their association to become public.
Any groups claiming to be or named as 'Illuminati' since that time are a product of fiction. A number of novels (fiction) have been written using the name of the organization or a similar sounding one. There are many rumors, theories, and sound bites constantly circling around, but that is all they are. There are people who have a need to believe in secret organizations and conspiracies who keep the stories circulating.
None of the Illuminati were particularly famous. The Illuminati was an organization (1776-1785) of enlightened intellectuals of Europe whose goal was the overthrow of the oppressive monarchy controlled by the church in Rome. They were very unsuccessful in their endeavor because that monarch successfully destroyed the organization and imprisoned their leadership.
Who are they illuminati members in Namibia
No, The Wanted are not members of the Illuminati.
No. Couldn't be. The Illuminati ended in 1785.
No. The Illuminati does not exist and no NBA athletes are members. Can't be, since the Illuminati does not exist.
Exactly none. No European footballers are members of the Illuminati. The Illuminati, the super secret world controlling power brokers, do not exist.
No.
Again, there are no members of the Illuminati that are in show business.
The Illuminati, the *real* Illuminati, broke up in 1785. I suspect they have completed decaying, so I would have to guess, "not a lot"!
The total membership world wide is 0, with the exception of the imaginary members. Those are difficult to count.
No. Neither Redfoo (Stefan Gordy) nor SkyBlu (Skyler Gordy) are members of the Illuminati.
Nope, not in Manila, not in Pasay, not in Quezon City, not in Ligao, not in even in Caloocan. Nowhere in the Philippines is there a single Illuminati member. Don't take it personally though; there are no Illuminati members anywhere. The organization does not exist.
The biggest difference is that the Freemasons exist and the Illuminati no longer does. As I understand it, for the short nine years the Illuminati did exist, not only did it resemble the Freemason organization, many Illuminati members in Ingolstadt, Bavaria were also Freemasons and members of other secret societies.
