You know, Pat, I used to think that the Illuminati were as fictional as discworld. I suppose a world in which children are brought up to believe things that aren't true (and when they notice they are told that it is a virtue to believe against all the evidence - or without evidence)- I suppose such a world is a fine compost in which any other mad idea can grow and be believed.
Faith is not a virtue and if people were taught not to believe for belief's sake then this madness would be rarer. But it really isn't worth bothering with, is it?
Love,
Anthony

I personally think that it is a good idea to know exactly where the lunatic fringe resides and that they exist at all. Most people can go through their lives without knowing exactly what kind of ideas some people will believe that are so far outside the realm of basic reason. Some of the lunatics fringe groups beliefs are amusing most are just sad.
"Some persons who are aware of the Illuminati’s existence believe that all of them are reptilians. Indeed some are, especially within the royal families, which have kept their bloodlines pure to a large extent, but humans also are in the Illuminati’s top ranks." "There are more human-reptilian hybrids than pure reptilians on the planet, and most are not consciously aware of their racial ancestry."
If human beings as a species could rationalize the irrational I doubt we would have the same willingness to change our ideals throughout time. Logic is not always consistent it changes as our understanding of the world around us changes. People change their opinions and beliefs within religions constantly it only takes longer than any average social environment. Radical groups typically die out over time. I do not expect people to embrace enlightenment reasoning willingly, however I do hope the enlightenment wins out in the end.
You must have noticed something that made you want to comment, so if it was truly as irrelevant as you imply you could have ignored it the way other people decided to do. Besides it is not as though I post a random theory about the "secret underworld of crackpot conspiracy's theories" every day or even week its a random occurrence. It usually occurs when I'm looking for something else entirely. I was actually looking up Revisiting Plutonomy when I found the web site.

... "celebrity" fruit-loops resides in British Columbia, a Province on Canada's west coast that a majority of home-grown Canadians have long considered to be "Lotus Land" for generations.
Like California, and to a lesser extent Washington State and Oregon, the western seaboard of North American, and British Columbia in particular, appears to have collected, and harboured, more than their fair share of odd-ball cults, collectives, religions, sects and whatnot. This seems to go with the territory, and frankly is nothing new, nor frankly newsworthy.
I've mentioned British Columbia before in other threads (it being where my birth was nominally registered, and where I resided for the first 10-years of my life, and where, to this day, I maintain one of two family homes in The Queen Charlotte Islands) specifically with regard to Canadian tolerance for the off-beat, and often politically uncentered, and much less mainstream thought. Mr. Beckow would certainly qualify for inclusion in those ranks (as would Matthew Ward in my opinion), right up there along side the Doukhobors, and that particularly pernicious group of castaway Mormons who continue to practice their home-grown brand of polygamy nearly a century after its' abandonment by Salt Lake City (albeit however that may have been under extreme duress), both groups having been featured recently and in the case of the latter, repeatedly of late, in Canada's National News Media.
On the subject of "The Illuminati", I refer those interested to two links, the first being their Wikipedia entry, and the one which would closely mirror my own understanding of what and whom they are (or were), whereas the second is their own sponsored News and Information Service web-site, which may be taken as you find it:
[Wikipedia] Illuminati
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illuminati
[Illuminati News] The Secret Order of the Illuminati
http://www.illuminati-news.com/moriah.htm
Saying that individuals like Steve Beckow and Matthew Ward are harmless, and as such can be safely ignored, which off-the-shelf, would be most person's typical reaction to their ilk, does not mitigate the damage their kind can perpetrate on society at large. Whilst I cannot disavow their right to speak their mind, regardless of the topic, they do bear watching, and very closely at that, I might add.
I did learn two new pieces of information from the links provided though:
Firstly that Barak Obama apparently is considered to be a member of The Illuminati, and secondly that The Illuminati are supposedly reptilian in origin, which probably explains away why the current Canadian produced Television Drama "V" (including both the original six-part Mini-series which aired in the 1980's, and the short-lived Television programme it later spawned) all feature human-looking aliens of reptilian origin. The programmes, whilst largely filmed in New York, have their creative credits lying waste somewhere in British Columbia.

I can't say I'd ever heard the term before; but, in having read through the CitiCorp article therein linked, I've found probably the first truly representative definition of wealth-retention and the greed-creed I've ever come across. What is of larger interest to me though is that its' derivation stems from the Bank itself, and its' own reporting on the phenomenon, and their attempt to categorize it and it's impact on society.
