Are they in control of the world? Like a lot of conspiracy theorists say they do. Do they even exist? Is the evidence for their existence based upon mounds and mounds of fallacies and misinterpretations? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IlluminatiThe "illuminati card game" created in 1995.

No. Like a lot of conspiracy theorists say they do. Conspiracy theorists say lots of things. Do they even exist? Yes, there are groups that refer to themselves as Illuminati. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illuminati#Modern_Illuminati Is the evidence for their existence based upon mounds and mounds of fallacies and misinterpretations? In reference to the Illuminati of popular conspiracy theories, yes.

http://www.cracked.com/article_17469_5-pathetic-groups-that-people-think-rule-world.htmlMy money's going on cracked.com as more legit than the illuminati. http://bossip.com/722273/illuminati-myths-debunked3920/http://www.overentertainment.com/facts-myths-about-the-illuminati/Just for the "other side" of the subject. Ya know, while I'm here, you believer sorts need to step back and look at the bigger issue on the table. That you fear a fictional entity like this says a lot about your own paradigm - and how susceptible you are to group think, hive mind, crowd conformity, willing servitude, and self imposed victimization. The very people the Illuminati were originally supposed to be are the exact opposite of people who believe to this day the Illuminati exist. Actually, they do. They're known today as Atheists - or, post smoking college professors. They're the group who'd sit around over drinks, smoke, and philosophize about the bigger questions in life - questions people living on their knees never fucking bother asking because they're too busy shoving their chickenshit heads up some "god's" ass...slave minded, conditioned cowards and absolutely not "free thinkers" at all. Do people like the Illuminati exist today? You becha...but they're doing things like 3D printing and AI and space colonization and neuroscience and even bitcoin, none of which is designed to enslave anyone but to free them, to remove them from their idiotic gods and devils of desert mythologies, help them get up off their knees, pull their heads out of their assess and THINK for themselves and stop cowing to the other guy out of fear and servitude. The Illuminati and religion don't even remotely go hand in hand. And that's a good thing.

Clearly yall just scrolled right on by what I posted...
These groups do *not* control the world. They have money and get a lot of advantages but they don't *control* the world.
If you're feeling controlled, the problem lies with you, not them. You're the one giving them the authority over you, letting them. You're the one fully accountable for going along with it.
Freedom means self governance. When you've mastered that, you control you and serve no masters.
Religious sorts are slave minded, they've been brainwashed and conditioned since childhood to live on their knees and automatically cow to some voice of authority - that's all religion is and ever was: creating drones and slaves and cowards. If you are all wrapped up in your gods then you are a puppet, you're the one they manipulated into doing their bidding...they control you because they can. Because you let them.
If you were the intelligent sort with a good grasp of the definition of "illuminai" (to illuminate, shine, expose) you'd be all for making sure the Illuminati was a philosophy you breathed day and night. You'd understand Freedom.
Only those who need a master follow religion.
And if you need a master, you're the one on your knees.
1 + 1 = 2.

Maybe "The Illuminati" don't exist, but surely something very very similar yes. A group of powerfull people with a lot of cash can be scary But not, they don't control the world.

Do they exist? Depends what you mean by 'they'. I don't think they 'control' the world per se though they might want to, but there are certain groups of powerful and wealthy individuals who want to and will buy as much power and influence as they can to shape certain world invents. War is a business and the oil and arms industry and banks profit immensely from this and what better way than to get governments to give them their citizens taxes by buying arms to invade countries then charging them more to rebuild it and the banks lend them more money when they need it and it's the government that bails them out when they screw up. It's legalized money laundering on a global scale. The politicians of course get a kick back from this is various ways.

Some of those cards: Wow, I have the first edition of that Illuminati game from Steve Jackson. Ultimately it led to their company being raided by the Feds, because the Feds were sure that IT WAS NOT A GAME. The raid almost killed their company. It was a famous case at the time, involving Phrack Magazine and the E911 document. EFF got on the case and sued the US government with Steve Jackson. They won this case and it set some important precedents. Much of which have later been undone, but it is a good case to keep in your knowledgebase anyway. https://w2.eff.org/legal/cases/SJG/?f=background.sjg.htmlBTW, if you really want to join the Illuminati...

The rise of christianity threatened to wipe out all advances in mathematics, reason and philosophy. The final blow was the murder of Hypatia by a christian mob in Alexandria.
At this point, the Pythagoreans & Neoplatonists went underground. They pretended to be christians while secretly passing on mathematics.
At some point the Pythagoreans & Neoplatonists began referring to themselves as the Illuminati and began using secret symbols to communicate amongst themselves.
Later they hid within the ranks of the Freemasons.
After the renaissance, mathematics was able to return from hiding without as much persecution by christians. There was still some problems as witnessed by the trial of Galileo by christians, but soon an agreement was reached. Science and mathematics would be separated from religion. Science would be confined to the observable and testable realm. Math would only be a tool that just "happened" to coincide with physical phenomena. Religion would still rule the realm of the untestable.
After this, the Illuminati split up into several groups. Some groups kept the name, other groups changed their name. Most eventually died out as the need for secrecy was greatly reduced.
Due to their deep understanding of math and philosophy, some became bankers and accumulated great wealth and power.
Bitcoin will change that. In a way, we are the new Illuminati. We will illuminate the world.

The word "illuminati" has turned into nothing more than a blanket term for dark groups of subversives that seek to control through deception.
A better question would be, do there exist dark occultists that seek to use black magic for personal gain?
Are there groups of these people that have infiltrated the highest echelons of the elite ruling class in society?
The answer of course is yes.
We are all being controlled, manipulated. Very few people realize it. They use black magic, occult rituals, numerology and dark sex magic in the vein of aleister crowley.
All of the major world events that have occurred were influenced by these people... 9/11, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, the civil war in Ukraine, MH17 & MH370, their attempts to get rid of Assad in Syria. The good news is that they are not always successful. For all of their black magic power they are still arrogant, selfish people at heart, truly nothing more than parasites feeding off of humanity like a bunch of leeches.
JFK spoke of a dark conspiracy at the highest levels of society that he planned to get rid of. Then he was assassinated shortly after.

The preservation of math, technology and knowledge in a world that deemed it "black magic" was a noble quest and is a continuing work. The parallels to our endeavors are not insignificant with respect to freedom and privacy. Welcome to the illuminated. With this understanding, you are on the path of transcending. Your next step on the path is to contemplate the moebius manifold, for we transform from within, and yet there is no entrance. For the sign post on this journey, contact Clifford Stoll (yes that Clifford Stoll) and acquire one of his klein bottles. This shibboleth will guide your meditation to the next sign post. http://www.kleinbottle.com/index.htm

Well spoken! Just like an Illuminati aspirant to deny its very existence! This is the way to keep our secrets safe in the shadowy places. Watch and learn, Watch and learn.

True, but that doesn't mean there aren't people who are trying to control us of the world around us. We can just be players in a bigger game.
