The word Illuminati is grossly overused and vastly misunderstood. It was a small organization that was founded in 1776 by Johann Adam Weishaupt. Being a secret fraternal order and that being in vogue in Europe then, the organization flourished along the well establish Freemasons, and many of Weishaupt's members were also Masons. However, the Order's political goals, specifically separation of church and state (a Jeffersonian concept as seen in the Establishment Clause) caught the attention of Karl Theodor, Duke of Bavaria, and perhaps his cousin Johann Theodore, Duke of Bavaria and Bishop of Munich and Friesling and Regensburg, both of whom staunchly opposed separation and whom were proponents of Enlightenment philosophy. Despot that Karl was, he disbanded all secret societies in 1784, but specifically targeted the Order of the Illuminati in 1785, and ordered his American Loyalist lap-dog Benjamin Thompson to hunt them down. Many were imprisoned and had all property and writings confiscated. Weishaupt and a friend ran for over a year. The friend died while running, but Weishaupt reached exile in Gotha and died there in 1830. The defunct organization never recovered or reemerged.
