Is the Illuminati Real?

   Some people believe that there is a secretive, shadowy, group called the Illuminati that basically rules the world. They believe that the Illuminati is active in areas of government, banking, entertainment, business, and even religion, to name a few. Do I believe there is such a group? Yes, I do. However, my areas of interest are in music and religion. I do not choose to follow what some feel is the influence of the Illuminati in current events or in politics.
   There are conspiracy theorists, all over the internet, who would find a conspiracy, behind such events, as the Boston Marathon bombing or the recent explosion near Waco, Texas, on the 20th anniversary of the Waco disaster. I choose not to go there. As the saying goes, "it is better to light one small candle than to curse the darkness". To plant bombs full of shrapnel near human beings and families like that of Denise, Bill, Martin, and Jane Richard is evil. To me, we all have choices in life and it is much better to choose life, not death, and good, not evil. When does a person get so twisted that good becomes evil and evil becomes good?
   Then there is the world of music. There are so many  talented and creative people who seem to be sold out to the powers that be in the industry. Reality tv is my guilty pleasure and American Idol is my favorite, although my favorite Idol singers, Adam Lambert, Clay Aiken, and Crystal Bowersox all finished 2nd, even though they each outsold the "winner" for their respective season. All of the judges appear to have strong Illuminati ties. It's a high paying job. Follow the money.
   If there was a poster child for the Illuminati puppet action figure, it would surely be Madonna, Britney Spears, Lady Gaga, or more recently Nicki Minaj. After Nicki's exorcism appearance on the Grammys in 2012, I was researching her on my old computer and got the BSOD or blue screen of death. The computer totally crashed. It was DOA at the local computer repair store. This week she started talking in her British accent on Idol, something Rihanna and Britney have also done. At one point this season, she turned to Keith Urban and asked him, "do you have an alter ego when you perform?" He said, "no". Speaking in a British accent and having an alter ego when performing, a Beyonce does with Sasha Fierce, can point to programming by handlers in the music industry. For information on programming and MK Ultra see Vigilant Citizen
   And then there is the world of religion. As one Luciferian said, "Christianity is ours, Christ is not." About half of the preachers who appear on religious tv, may have ties to the Masons or to the Illuminati. Some of these may be Dr. David Jeremiah, Rick Warren, Greg Laurie, and T. D. Jakes. There are those who claim that Dr. Billy Graham has ties with the New World Order.
   I don't understand the allure of power, fame, or money. Truly the best things in life are free. I cannot comprehend institutionalized darkness. Ultimately loves wins out over hate. "Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning." Psalm 30:5  Each of us has a choice to make in this world. Will we serve light or darkness, goodness or evil? "This day I call the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses, therefore choose life, so that you and your descendants may live." Deuteronomy 30:19.
