Is it true that Sir Isaac Newton was a follower of the Illuminati?

Answer 1

Actually, no. It would not have been physically possible for him to be a member of the Illuminati.

Here's why:

Isaac newton was born 25 December 1642 in Woolsthorpe-by-Colsterworth, and died 20 March 1727 in Kensington. Both are in England.

Johann Adam Weishaupt was born 6 February 1748 in Bavaria, Germany and died 18 November 1830 in Gotha, Thuringia in exile.

This is important:

Weishaupt was the founder of the Bavarian Illuminati (also called the Order of Illuminati and Order of Perfectibilists) on 1 May 1776. After publishing a number of writings calling for the separation of church and state, and promoting the equality of all people (not conducive to a powerful monarchy), the organization was labelled seditious and ordered disbanded by the Duke of Bavaria in 1785.

See the problem yet?

Okay, hold on because this gets tricky.

Isaac Newton died 49 years, 1 month, 12 days before the formation of the Illuminati.

Answer 2

Sir Isaac Newton (1642 - 1727) had been dead for 49 years before the organization known as the Illuminati was created.

The Illuminati was an organization (1776-1785) of enlightened intellectuals 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.

Answer 3

Isaac Newton has often been associated with various secret societies and fraternal orders throughout history. Due to the nature of many of these organizations, lack of supportive publicized material, and dubious motives for claiming Newton's participation in these groups, it is difficult to establish his actual membership in any specific organization.

However Isaac Newton was definitely Rosicrucianism.
