How Hollywood Spreads Disinformation About Secret Societies

Translation by Autumnson Blog
During the last years, a new trend appeared in Hollywood: secret societies being at the center of movie intrigues. Some might find this surprising since secret societies are supposed to be…well…secret. Many people in the movie industry are part of those Brotherhoods so what is the reasoning behind this? We’ll look at the myth Hollywood is trying to create by examining “National Treasure” and “Angels and Demons”.
在過去幾年，一種新趨勢出現在荷里活：秘密社團在電影情節的中心。有些人可能認為這令人驚訝，因為秘密社團都應該是...好...秘密的。電影業中有許多人都是這些兄弟會的部分，所以這背後的理由是什麼呢？我們將會看看荷里活正在試圖創造的神話，透過檢驗“國家寶藏”和“天使與魔鬼”兩片。
十年前，有關共濟會或光明會的電影是罕有和相隔甚遠的（在這裡看電影中的共濟會引用列表）。然而在過去十年，已有一個大的轉變。全世界的公眾都已目睹主要的電影大片，在故事中心都以兄弟會作為特色。他們的通俗象徵大量地展示，和有些它們的歷史甚至被解說。為什麼那些社團會向普通電影觀眾暴露他們自己呢，他們大部分甚至不覺察它們的存在呢？保密不是一項那些秩序生存的重要條件嗎？
I believe an important change is taking place in the communication strategies of these elite societies. The advent of the digital age, where any individual can create and publish content has rendered the secrecy of such organizations impossible. Self-published websites, books, documentaries, DVDs and other medias have exposed many secrets of Masonry and other orders. Information which could only be found in rare and exclusive books is now a Google search away. I have encountered some Masons who were astonished by the level of knowledge possessed by the ”profane”. Those types of Masonic scholars, who aren’t actually initiated into the Brotherhood, were very rare not too long ago.
我相信一項正在發生的重要變化是在這些精英社團的通訊策略，數碼時代的來臨，任何個人都能創建和發布內容，已使這類組織無法保密。自助的出版網站、書籍、記錄片、DVD和其它媒體已暴露了許多共濟會和其它秩序的秘密。只能在稀有和獨家書籍發現的資料，現在只是一次 Google搜索般遠。我曾遇到一些共濟會員，他們被"外行"擁有的知識水平所嚇驚。那些類型的共濟會學者，他們實際上並沒有入會兄弟會，不太久之前是非常罕見的。
Since the digital switch is irreversible (and completed), occult orders have adapted their strategy to this new context (they’ve probably saw this coming years ago). The strategy is : “If they have to know about us, we’ll tell them what to know“. Through Hollywood and best-selling books, secret societies are being introduced to the average Joe but with one BIG condition: the public is given a distorted, caricatured and romantic portrayal of secret societies. We are introducing in pop culture a mythical lore around secret societies, associating them with fascinating symbols, treasures hunts and exotic adventures. The viewers believe they are actually learning facts about Freemasonry or the Illuminati and they leave the movies with a sense of wonder, fascination and admiration. Those feelings are however based on totally erroneous facts, dubious explanations and fairy tale story telling. After viewing those movies, the viewer has a positive predisposition concerning those orders and will be less inclined to believe and research conspiracies related to them.
自從數碼轉換變得不可逆轉（並完成了），神秘學秩序已對這種新形勢適應他們的策略（他們可能多年前已看到這來臨）。策略是：“如果他們要知道關於我們的，我們將告訴他們要知道什麼”。通過荷里活和暢銷書，秘密社團正在被介紹給一般傢伙，但限於一項大條件：公眾被給予一種歪曲、諷刺和浪漫的秘密社團描繪；我們在流行文化介紹一圍繞秘密社團的神話傳說，將它們關聯至迷人的符號、尋寶和異國情調的冒險。觀眾相信他們實際上是學習了關於共濟會或光明會的事實，及他們帶著驚歎、迷戀和欽佩感離場。然而，那些感受完全是建基在錯誤的事實、可疑的解釋和童話般的故事講述。在觀看那些電影後，觀眾將會有積極的傾向關注那些秩序，而將會少些傾向於相信和研究與他們有關的陰謀。
國家寶藏
National Treasure
這套重頭冒險電影是由和路迪士尼影片公司製作，一個保證親兒女的娛樂品牌；因此，家長可以帶著他們孩子和享受一個不錯、健康、共濟會的流料時段。影片圍繞一個尋寶故事，建基在“獨立宣言”上由突出共濟會員留下的線索。
The movie starts with the main character (played by Nicholas Cage) as a little boy, searching for information about his family history. The boy’s grandfather comes in and gives the boy (and the audience) a totally false and distorted story of the Knights Templars and the Freemasons.
影片開始於主角（尼古拉斯基治飾演）作為一個小男孩，搜尋有關他家族歷史的資料。男孩的祖父入來和給予男孩（和觀眾）一項完全是虛假和歪曲了的聖殿騎士團和共濟會員的故事。
Here are some of the claims:
這裡有一些宣稱：
The Knights Templars found under the Temple of Solomon a great treasure which was lost for a thousand years. They’ve brought the treasure back to Europe.
聖殿騎士團在所羅門聖殿下發現一個失去千年的大寶藏，他們已將寶藏帶回歐洲。
It has been said that the Templars possessed extremely rare religious artifacts. Were they found under the Temple of Solomon? The legend says yes. The movie however describes the treasure as gold coins, statues and such.
據說聖殿騎士擁有極為罕見的宗教文物，是被他們發現在所羅門聖殿下的？傳說說是。然而，影片描述寶藏為金幣、雕像等瑰寶。
The Templars decided to smuggle the treasure into the United States and changed their name to the Freemasons.
聖殿騎士決定走私寶物到美國，並更名為共濟會員。
This is where everything falls apart. The Templars did not change their name to the Freemasons at the dawn of the American civilization. The Templars have actually disappeared in 1312, which is more than 400 years before the creation of the USA.
就是這裡一切變得肢離破碎，聖殿騎士並沒有在美國文明的黎明時將名字改為共濟會員。聖殿騎士實際上已在1312年消失，當時是創造美國前的400年有多。
“Seemingly untouchable for nearly two centuries, the Templars fell from grace spectacularly after the loss of the Holy Land: in 1307, all Templars in France were arrested on charges of heresy, homosexuality, denial of the cross and devil worship. The order was suppressed by the Pope in 1312, and Jacques de Molay, the last Grand Master, was burnt at the stake as a heretic two years later. ”The Freemasons are not an all-American institution, as the movie insinuates. It is a European secret society dating from the Middle-Ages, who opened lodges in North America to expand its reach. The goal of Masonry is not to “protect a great Templar treasure”, it is an ancient order of builders who incorporated into its rites, over the years, teachings of the Templars, Rosicrucians and the Illuminati.
- Sean Martin, The Knights Templar
“看似碰不得近兩個世紀，聖殿騎士在失去聖地後引人注目地從魅力倒下：在1307年，在法國的所有聖殿騎士被逮捕，被指控的罪名是異端、同性戀、拒絕十架和拜魔鬼。在1312年該秩序被教皇壓制，和兩年後最後的大法師雅克 de Molay被視為邪教徒用火刑焚燒。 “
- 肖恩馬丁，聖殿騎士
共濟會並不是一個全美國的機構，正如電影所巧妙暗示的。它是一個可追溯到中世紀的歐洲秘密社團，在北美開設分部以擴大其覆蓋面。 共濟會的目標不是“保護一個偉大的聖殿寶藏”，它是一個古代建造者的秩序，多年來他們將聖殿騎士、薔薇十字會和光明會的教義納入到其儀式。
The Templars was an occult order who had fought during the Crusades at the side of the Church. It is during their stay in the Middle East that they’ve secured occult knowledge from eastern mystics and brought it back to Europe. They’ve became great bankers and Cathedral builders (in which they’ve included occult symbolism). They were known to practice the Kaballah, many forms of magic and the black arts. Their conflicting interests with the Catholic church ultimately lead to their persecution and demise.
The Freemasons can be considered spiritual descendants of the Knights Templar due to their study of esoteric sciences, their building of monuments and their philosophy based on gnostic principles. The link between the Templars and the Masons is being cultivated due to the mythical lore surrounding the Knights. In other words, it’s good publicity.
” In order to insure great popularity for the [Scottish] rite, he [Isaac Long] linked it directly with the Templars by a mysterious legend.”So the “educational” part of the movie gives in fact a mythical and romantic story of Freemasonry. Some viewers might view this distortion as fact, others will associate everything Masonic to a fairytale. The important thing is that the truth about Freemasonry is concealed behind a veil of mythology.

Esoteric Meaning of the Movie
共濟會的華盛頓紀念碑 - “如上、因此以下”
(warning: major spoilers ahead)
（警告：前面有大破壞者）
Like all true mythological stories, National Treasure has an exoteric meaning for the ignorant masses and an esoteric meaning for the initiates. If the exoteric story is meant to mislead the public, the esoteric meaning carries however great truths about occult brotherhoods. Here’s the hidden meaning.
The “ancient treasure” that was jealously guarded by ancient civilizations is in fact occult knowledge, the Mysteries, that could break the shackles of materialism and help their possessor access divinity (Kaballah, alchemy, gnosticism and occult sciences). This treasure disappeared for a thousand years from the Western world, which corresponds to the early Christian period. The movie says that it was eventually discovered by the Knights Templar in Jerusalem, under the Temple Solomon (the Freemasons’ sacred building) and brought it back to Europe. This knowledge then migrated to the USA through secret societies.
The hero of the movie is on a quest for illumination and the riddles he must solve represent the initiations one must pass before accessing higher knowledge. This all-important treasure is symbolically buried under Trinity Church in New York, in a hidden cave which is dark and cavernous. Ben Gates has to light up the torch of illumination to find his way to the hidden knowledge. The torch represents the Luciferian doctrine of American Freemasonry instituted by Albert Pike. In the highest degrees, Lucifer is taught to be the “light bearer”, the god of Good who shows to path to illumination.
尼古拉斯基治與路西弗的火炬
“Its [high degrees of Scottish Rite] religion is Manichean neo-gnosticism, teaching that the divinity is dual and that Lucifer is the equal of Adonay, with Lucifer, the God of Light and Goodness struggling for humanity against Adonay the God of Darkness and Evil.”
-Domenico Margiotta 33°, Adriano Lemmi
“它的[蘇格蘭禮儀的高度數]宗教是摩尼教新諾斯替主義，教導神性是雙重而路西弗是相等於我的主耶和華，與路西弗 - 光明和善良之神為人類對我的主 - 黑暗和邪惡之神鬥爭，“。
- 33°多梅尼科Margiotta ，阿德里亞諾利寶
“When the Mason learns that the key to the warrior on the block is the proper application of the dynamo of living power, he has learned the mystery of his craft. The seething energies of Lucifer are in his hands and before he may step onwards and upwards he must prove his ability to properly apply (this) energy.”Back to the story. Ben Gates, with his Luciferian torch finds the path to illumination and obtains access to an infinite source of knowledge. During the scene where the heroes look around the treasure room, they find very significant items: Scrolls from the Library of Alexandria, Egyptian statues and other artifacts from the Antiquity. All of those objects refer to the occult knowledge that has been communicated through the ages through secret societies.
- Manly P. Hall, Lost Keys of Freemasonry
“當共濟會員獲悉往滑車上的戰士的鑰匙，是正確應用精力充沛的人的活力量，他已學會他的工藝之謎。路西弗的沸騰能量會在他的手中，及在他可能繼續踏向上之前，他必須證明他有能力正確應用（這）能量。“
- 曼利P廳，共濟會失落之匙
At the end of the movie, Ben Gates speaks with the FBI inspector and begs him not to send him to jail. Flashing his Masonic ring, the representative of the law says “someone has to go to jail” for the stealing of the Declaration of Independance. The next scene shows the ”bad guys” (the non-Masons) getting arrested, even if they did not actually steal the Declaration. We see here a blatant example of the Masonic oath superceeding the law. The FBI agent willfully ignored the law to help his Masonic brother.

Then end of the movie shows the heroes rich and happy. There’s no esoteric meaning to this, it is just a sappy Disney ending.
然後電影的末段顯示英雄們的富有和快樂，這沒有深奧的意義，它衹是一個畫蛇添足的迪士尼結局。
天使與魔鬼
Angels and Demons
In the beginning of the movie, Robert Langdon (played by Tom Hanks) ventures himself into explaining the Illuminati. Here are some of his claims:
“The Illuminati was founded by Galileo Galilei in response to the Church’s refusal of his heliocentric theory”
The Illuminati was officially founded in Upper Bavaria, by Adam Weishaupt on May 1st 1776. This is more than 130 years after Galilei’s death and not even in the same country. The movie’s association of Galilei with the Illuminati seems like an attempt to associate this brilliant scientist’s name to the conspiratorial secret society.
“我所知道一切領導人們的手段中，最行之有效的是有一件隱藏了的奧秘。” - 亞當威索
“The Illuminati did not become violent before the 17th century.”
It never was violent, its actions were based on infiltration and subversion.
“在17世紀前光明會沒有變得暴力。”
它從來不是暴力，它的行動是建基於滲透和顛覆。
“It was an association of scientists, physicists and astronomers concerned with the Church’s inaccurate teachings and they were dedicated to scientific truth. The Vatican didn’t like that, so the Church started to “hunt them down and kill them”.
The Illuminati was not a group of scientists dedicated to the advancement of common knowledge. The movie falsely portrays the secret society as the necessary rational counterpart to Christianity’s requirement of blind faith and its hindering of scientific advancement. In this optic, the average viewer cannot disagree with Tom Hank’s description of the Illuminati and sees the order in a favorable way. The real aim of the Illuminati was the overthrow of traditional institutions in favor of a new world order.
The objects of this powerful organization of the Bavarian Illuminati, were :The Bavarian Illuminati has dissolved some years after its creation. Researchers however say that the Illuminati has successfully integrated itself within modern Freemasonry. Illuminati thinkers believed that worldwide reach of Masonic lodges represented the ideal platform for the propagation of their ideals.

2. The destruction of nations as such in favor of universal

2。毀滅各國正如這樣是普遍贊成的國際主義;
3. The discouragement of patriotic and loyal effort branded

3。不鼓勵愛國和忠誠努力，被加上狹隘偏見的污名，不能與給所有男人的善意教義和“全世界兄弟會“
的呼喊共存；
4. The abolition of family ties and of marriage by means
of systematic corruption ;
4。以系統性腐敗的手段廢除家庭關係和婚姻;
5. The suppression of the rights of inheritance and property.
5。鎮壓繼承和財產權。

-“皇后郡夫人，神秘學的神權政治
To sum up, the Illuminati was not an association of bright scientists dedicated to the advancement of scientific truths. It was secret society who, through infiltration and subversion, aimed to overthrow traditional institutions in order serve the best interests a secret elite. It is true that the Illuminati was thoroughly anti-Church but this war wasn’t the main reason of its existence. Nowadays, the Illuminati is considered to be a hidden order which recruits within Freemasonry potent candidates for the continuation of its agenda.
電影的隱密含義
Esoteric Meaning of the Movie
In the movie, the Illuminati threatens the Vatican to “destroy the Church by light”. ”Light” refers to the explosion of the anti-matter bomb but it also refers to information – propaganda and indoctrination. The only true way to make the masses turn their back on Christianity is not by destroying the Vatican, but by changing the way people see their religious elite. In that optic, the movie itself is the bomb against the Vatican. Even if the Church, with the help of Robert Langdon, apparently prevails at the end of the movie, the viewer of Angels of Demons has spent two hours seeing all the symbols, rituals and figures of Catholicism being desecrated. Some examples: Robert Langdon destroys the archives of the Vatican, candidates for papacy are kept in cages like animals, one candidate is crucified and burned inside a church, the tomb of the defunct Pope is opened to reveal his grossly deformed face, etc.
教皇的候選人在一所教堂內被釘十字架和燃燒
All those scenes have a strong symbolic meaning which deeply affect the conscientiousness of the viewers. The holy and divine aura surrounding the Vatican is replaced by gruesome deaths, destruction and corruption. The whole movie depicts the institution as an inadequate, stubborn and reactionary relic of the past. To top it off, the viewers learn that the whole “Illuminati” thing was a big setup, masterminded by the son of the Pope (yes apparently, the Pope had a son) to take his position. So the movie tells the viewer that the Illuminati doesn’t even exist and that the Church is so corrupted that its members are ready to commit the most horrendous sins to obtain power.
The viewers ultimately leave the movie with the exact ideas the elite wants them to keep: the Illuminati is a fairy tale and, when it actually existed, it was an association of great thinkers dedicated to the advancement of science; the Catholic Church is not holy, it is a deeply flawed and human institution, which is bound to disappear due to its aversion to science. Through this movie, the real Illuminati denies its own existence while still carrying out its plan to destroy organized religions by constant indoctrination. The age old struggle for power between the Catholic Church and occult orders is taking place on our movie screens and we can clearly see who is winning.
結論
To Conclude
The trend of seeing secret societies in books and movies is not about to end. Dan Brown’s next novel, “The Lost Symbol” will also focus around Freemasonry and its ties with Washington. These works are now appearing as a result of the democratisation of information, which allows regular people to access information which was previously inaccessible. These movies serve the same purpose as occult symbols: to reveal and to conceal. They reveal to the initiates while they mislead the profane. Hollywood movies have been used to promote numerous agendas such as the Vietnam war, the fear of Communism, the fear of Islamic terrorism, the promotion of American values, etc. The movies analyzed above simply promote a new agenda, which is disinformation about secret societies.
