The Rockefeller Bloodline One of the 13 Satanic bloodlines that rule the world is the Rockefeller bloodline. Today, there are around 190 members of this family with the Rockefeller name and of course some others by other last names. This article is to explore further for those who investigate the Illuminati, how the Rockefeller bloodline is involved in the promotion of the occult and Satanism, and how they are involved in the control of the Christian denominations. This article keys in on just one family, the Rockefellers. To understand the full extent of the Illuminati’s control of religion, including Christendom, would require perhaps several books. The Illuminati itself draws its lifeblood from around 500 very powerful families worldwide. This article will not attempt to explain their networks and the many organizations of the Illuminati. It will not even try to do this for the Rockefellers. In fact, no one knows how many trusts and foundations the Rockefellers have. They have hidden trusts within secret trusts within secret trusts. It is estimated that they have between 200 and several thousand trusts and foundations. The finances of the Rockefellers are so well covered that Nelson Rockefeller did not pay one cent in income taxes in 1970, yet he was perhaps the richest man in the U.S. The Rockefellers exert enormous influence over religion in this nation in the following ways: 1. They provide a large share of the money that Seminaries in the United States need to operate. 2. They provide a large share of the money that universities need to operate. Education influences the religious values of our people. 3. They provide large grants to various religious organizations. 4. Their influence and control helps determine who will get publicity in the major news magazines, and on television. 5. Their influence has contributed to various anti-Christian organizations being set up. 6. They directly help control certain religious groups such as Lucis Trust. The Rockefeller’s influence is both subtle and not so subtle. In the book The Unholy Alliance details are given on how the seminaries, church boards and Christian colleges have been captured. Much of the money for this came from the Rockefellers. One of the principle large Foundations that was instrumental in controlling religious institutions of various kinds was the Sealantic Fund. (They have now shifted to other channels.) This Foundation which was incorporated in 1938 and was headquartered in New York City (50 West 50th St.) gave enormous sums of money to manipulate Protestant concerns. In 1964, according to the Russell Sage Foundation’s book The Foundation Directoy the Sealantic Fund gave away $681, 886 in grants.* In 1969, the Fund gave $1,889,550 in grants.** By 1984, the Sealantic Fund was not being used. But a look at another Rockefeller non-profit untaxed Foundation the Rockefeller Brother’s Fund shows a revealing grant pattern. Many people would not be able make any sense out of what seems a random pattern of grants without the broad picture of what the Illuminati is doing today. My book Be Wise As Serpents should have clarified how those various groups who receive grants are related and helpful to the Rockefeller agenda. Although these other Rockefeller Foundations are not specifically geared toward religion such as the Sealantic Fund was, it is clear these other Foundations still impact religion. 4 SELECTED GRANTS IN 1984 OF THE ROCKEFELLER BRO. FUND*** • Council on Foundations- $41,000 • (This money was according to R.B. Fund info ‘Toward work of project which will carry out recommendations from study that points out lack of knowledge about global interdependence and about relationship between international and domestic issues. Emphasis will be placed on information and educational programs to help funders become more familiar with and learn how to analyze opportunities for international grant making.) • Harlem Interfaith Counseling Service-$100,000. • Private Agencies Collaborating Together - $25,000 • (“encourages collaboration among private development agencies working in Africa. Asia, and Latin America...”) • Trilateral Commission - $240,000 8 SELECTED GRANTS IN 1984 OF THE ROCKEFELLER FAMILY FUND & ROCKEFELLER FOUNDATION**** • ACLU -$15,000, • AMERICAN HISTORICAL ASSOC. -$42,000, • AMER. PHILOSOPHICAL ASSOC. -$57,500, • CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA -$25,000, • CATHOLIC UNIV. OF CHILE - $224,200, • COUNCIL ON FOREIGN RELATIONS -$165.000, • NAACP- $100,000, • POPULATION COUNCIL - $ 1,235,000, • UNIV. OF NOTRE DAME - $25,000 Catholic institutions have been large recipients of grants from foundations connected to the World Order. The Catholic Church, the Episcopalian Church, and the Unitarian-Universalist Church are all playing big roles in the New World Order for the Satanists. One ex-Satanist has talked about visits that were made with the Pope and Vatican leaders, where the Pope dealt with this person as a member of the Illuminati. In other words the Pope was not in the Illuminati hierarchy, but he carries out transactions with them, and coordinates his actions according to their instructions. We will now go into some depth on the six items above. 1. They provide a large share of the money that Seminaries in the United States need to operate. • The Union Theological Seminary has operated from Rockefeller funds.***** UTS hasn’t been the only Protestant Seminary receiving Rockefeller funds, but it may be the best example of a seminary controlled by the Rockefellers. • The Sealantic Fund stated under its purpose and activities, “Current interests are primarily Protestant theological education...... ****** The President of the Sealantic Fund when it operated was David Rockefeller, and Laurance (not Lawrence) S. Rockefeller was Vice-President. Steven C. Rockefeller was one of the trustees. 2. They provide a large share of the money that universities need to operate. Education influences the religious values of our people. In 1952, Congressman Eugene E. Cox headed up a committee that for the first time tried to uncover the Rockefeller’s (and other’s) foundations’ activities. For some reason, Cox encountered stiff opposition everywhere against his committee’s investigation, and the Congressman for some reason got sick and died. One member of the committee, Congressman Carroll Reese, and his Counsel Rene Wormser attempted to continue the investigation. Rockefeller’s henchmen and newspapers did their best to destroy Congressman Reese. The Reese investigation was given only the barest minimum of time and little resources for their investigation. However, they were still able to uncover that beginning in the 1930s vast sums of money were spent in Education by the Rockefeller and Carnegie foundations. This money went to promote John Dewey, Marxism, a One-World-Government agenda, and Socialism. The foundations (principally the Rockefeller and Carnegie) stimulated two-thirds of the total endowment funding of all institutions of higher learning in America during the first third of this 20th century.******* The NEA (National Education Association was largely financed by the Rockefeller/Carnegie foundations. A 1934 NEA report advised, “A dying laissez-faire must be completely destroyed and all of us, including the ‘owners’, must be subjected to a large degree of social control.” Reece Committee Counsel Rene Wormser wrote of the investigation, “...leads one to the conclusion that there was, indeed, something in the nature of an actual conspiracy among certain leading educators in the United States to bring about socialism through the use of our school systems...” They discovered that the Rockefeller foundation was the primary culprit behind the teaching of socialism in America’s schools and universities and also behind the NEA’s policies. Rene Wormser, Counsel for the Reece Committee reported, “A very powerful complex of foundations and allied organizations has developed over the years to exercise a high degree of control over education. Part of this complex, and ultimately responsible for it, are the Rockefeller and Carnegie groups of foundations.” This was the situation in the 1950s when the Reece Committee briefly investigated. The Rockefeller-Carnegie groups have continued basically unopposed for the next 40 years in controlling education. One of the educational book producers is Grolier, Inc. Avery Rockefeller, Jr. sits on Grolier, Inc. board meetings. Another interesting board member is Theodore WaIler who is the director of Grolier, Inc. He was a member of the International Book Committee of UNESCO. The Rockefellers maintain great influence in the United Nations. 3. They provide large grants to various religious organizations. On Jan. 31, 1945, John D. Rockefeller addressed the Protestant Council of the City of N.Y. and told them that the answer to the problems Christianity was that Christianity needed to become “the Church of the Living God.” Many listening that day, may not have realized that he and other top Illuminati consider themselves gods, and that the solution John D. was cryptically giving was for Christianity to serve him a living god. (Rockefeller, John D. The Christian Church- What of its Future? NY: Protestant Council, 1945, & 1917.) 4. Their influence and control helps determine who will get publicity in the major news magazines. The Rockefeller family has enormous controls over various magazines and newspapers. Let us examine how the power of the press can be used in religion. One of the magazines that the Rockefellers have some control over is Time magazine. Time’s board chairman, Andrew Heiskell was associated with David Rockefeller. Another Illuminatus of the 6th level1 Henry J. Fisher, ran McCall’s Magazine from 1917 to 1956. The establishment’s media boosted Anton LaVey’s Church of Satan into prominence. The Jan. 31, 1967 New York Daily News ran a story about Anton LaVey performing the first Satanic wedding ceremony in America. The March 1970 issue of McCall’s ran a nice story about the Church of Satan. Not only is LaVey’s Church of Satan a publicity stunt to make Satanism more popular and to deflect criticism of real covert Satanism, the McCall issue makes Anton LaVey’s church sound even better in the article than it is.

    Rockefeller Syndicate - Secret Govt The following is on the historical perspective of just the Rockefeller and Rothschild connections and in no way attempts to cover every aspect, but will suffice to give you a basis on which to understand how pervasive the Web of influence is and that it is a good deal MORE than "merely a conspiracy". Just WHO makes up the ILLEGAL SHADOW GOVERMNENT, YOUR HIDDEN MASTERS. Some have looked for shadows of the old illuminati; they look amiss, not seeing that which is all around them. If you know not the "who" and the "why", efforts will be mis-directed. This is NOT a "conspiracy", nay, it is a very cold and calculated NETWORK of individuals whose intent is nothing short of implementation of a "New World Order"; an oligarchic rein in which *you* serve as little more that slaves in their "technocracy". This network has every intention to implement a cashless society, for it is they who control every aspect of finance and banking over the entire globe. They have had about 100 years to perfect their plans and put them into practice. Please understand that the Bilderbergers, the Council on Foreign Relations, the Tri- lateral Commission, the Institute for Policy Studies, the Roundtables, the "Club of Rome", etc are ALL bound by common denominators of long-standing families ties, and interests and come together as a _single_ policy making body that is known today as "The Committee of 300" . This has also been known as "The Olympians", the "Policy Committee". Don't be mis-led by labels such as "Rockefeller" or "Rothschild"; for these are simply the families who have the mechanisms of control already set in place, but of themselves are not the entire network; that being the "Committee of 300".

Strengths of the Lee Library include American, British, and French photography and photographers. The publications on French 19th- century material (numbering well over 100), include many uncommon specialized catalogues from French regional museums and galleries, on the major photographers of the time, such as Eugène Atget, Daguerre, Gustave Le Gray, Charles Marville, Félix Nadar, Charles Nègre, and others. In addition, it is noteworthy that the library includes many small exhibition catalogues, which are often the only publication on specific photographers’ work, providing invaluable research material. The major developments and evolutions in the history of photography are covered, including numerous titles on the pioneers of photography and photographic processes such as daguerreotypes, calotypes, and the invention of negative-positive photography. The Lee Gallery Library has great depth in the Pictorialist Photography aesthetic movement, the Photo- Secession and the circle of Alfred Stieglitz, as evidenced by the numerous titles on American photography of the early 20th-century. This is supplemented by concentrations of books on the photography of the American Civil War and the exploration of the American West. Photojournalism is also well represented, from war documentary to Farm Security Administration and LIFE photography.

    "The Capstone" An attempt to identify the 'Head of the Snake' Secret Societies Order of Hospitallers (link) The Knights Hospitaller, also known as the Order of Hospitallers or simply Hospitallers, were a group of men attached to a hospital in Jerusalem that was founded by Blessed Gerard around 1023 out of which two major Orders of Chivalry evolved, the Order of the Knights of St. Lazarus and the Order of the Knights of St. John, later to be known as the Sovereign Military Order of Malta. The Hospitallers arose around the work of an Amalfitan hospital located at the Muristan site in Jerusalem, founded around 1023 to provide care for poor, sick or injured pilgrims to the Holy Land. After the Western Christian conquest of Jerusalem in 1099 during the First Crusade, the organisation became a religious and military order under its own charter, and was charged with the care and defence of the Holy Land. Following the conquest of the Holy Land by Islamic forces, the Order operated from Rhodes, over which it was sovereign, and later from Malta where it administered a vassal state under the Spanish viceroy of Sicily. The Order was weakened by Napoleon's capture of Malta in 1798 and became dispersed throughout Europe. It regained strength during the early 19th century as it repurposed itself towards humanitarian and religious causes. The modern continuation of the mediaeval Order is the Roman Catholic Sovereign Military Order of Malta, headquartered in Rome; allied Protestant orders are headquartered in the United Kingdom, Germany, the Netherlands and Sweden. The first master of the original Order of the Hospital of St John of Jerusalem was Brother Gerard (whose origins remain a mystery).

    Outside Magazine February 2005 (http://outside.away.com/outside/toc/200502.html) The Selling of the Last Savage On a planet crowded with six billion people, isolated primitive cultures are getting pushed to the brink of extinction. Against this backdrop, a new form of adventure travel has raised an unsettling question: Would you pay to see tribes who have never laid eyes on an outsider? By Michael Behar SHOCKING SURPRISE: a native of West Papua, Indonesia, September 2004 (Stephen Dupont) I'M SOMEWHERE in a godforsaken rainforest on the north coast of West Papua, Indonesia, and I'm ready to get the hell out of here. I'm five days into a three-week jungle trek with 43-year-old Bali-based outfitter Kelly Woolford, and things have gotten both weird and dangerous. Now I'm scared and confused, and I've lost all faith in my guide. "We'll meet 'em, share a little tobacco, chill for a bit, and then move on—like passing nomads," Woolford had said. But five minutes ago we encountered bow-and-arrow-wielding bushmen who were so angry that they charged our camp, lobbing three arrows high above our heads. To avoid puncture wounds, I ran straight for a nearby river and almost swam across it, until I remembered that it contained crocodiles that might have torn me to shreds. Despite all the chaos, Woolford seems detached, remaining calm and puffing a cigarette as our porters grapple for their machetes and bows. I ask for reassurance that I'm not about to get skewered, but his answer isn't very soothing: "If they want to fill our asses full of arrows, there Stephen Dupont Photos isn't much we can do about it." True enough.

WG: I was born on April 17th, 1927, in Paris, France, of American parents. My father was there on business, so those circumstances explain why I happen to have been born there. SZ: It was quite a time to be there. WG: Yes, indeed. We came back when I was four, in '31, and my father worked for another branch of the company he had worked for, an American company, in France and other places. Then we moved to a town called Laudonville, New York, which is a suburb of Albany. There we lived until I went away to school, which would have been at the age of thirteen; I guess it would have been about 1940. I went away to a pre- prep school, Fessenden School, for a year and then to a prep school, Deerfield Academy. SZ: Had your father gone to Deerfield too? MoMA Archives Oral History: W.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First and foremost, I must thank my thesis chair, Dr. Robin Poynor, for maintaining a high level of encouragement through the many years of working on this project. He has provided a multitude of edits at my request and has always given valuable advice. I feel very fortunate to have worked with such an excellent academic who is both friendly and has a charming sense of humor. I must also acknowledge my cochair on this project, Dr. John Scott, who has been very patient as I prepared this document. He provided insightful comments that are very much appreciated. The late Dr. Roy Sieber, formerly of Indiana University, was a Harn Museum eminent scholar, who supervised my independent survey of Oceanic literature in preparation for thesis writing. I am grateful for his support and topic recommendation. Several scholars from museums have taken the time away from their busy schedule to assist me. From the Queensland Museum in Brisbane, Australia, Michael Quinnell allowed me to view several examples of adorned skulls not typically on display as did Dr. Roger Neich from the Auckland Museum in Auckland, New Zealand. Finally, Nicole Peduzzi, Assistant to the Oceania Department from the Museum der Kulturen in Basel, Switzerland, offered astute observations about my research project and responded to me in a timely manner.
