"Multikulti" hat eindeutig recht: Es handelt sich um einFreimauererymbol und
nicht einmal um ein verstecktes...

Was denn nun.....?Wie kommst denn dann zu deiner aussage -->Das Dreieck bedeutet garnichts.<---

Ausserdem:
Ich will hier nix"thesieren"... ich mag es nur nicht wenn man mal eben behauptet "dat sind freimaurer".Obwohl es offensichtlich ist das dem nicht so ist. Ich lasse mich aber gerne einesanderen belehren.

Was du hier (mit fehlerhafter Grammatik und holprigemSatzbau) versuchst, ist Pike als isolierten Ausnahmefall zu deklarieren und seinenEinfluss auf die Scottih Rite Freemasonry herunterzuspielen. Pike war Souvereign GrandCommander und einer der einflussreichsten Freimaurer die je existierten, sogar heute nochwird er offen von freimaurerischen Publikationen wie dem "Scottish Rite Magazine"gepriesen. PS: Pike war Klan-Gründer, nicht nur Mitglied.

<b>Mit ManlyPalmer Hall ist es das gleiche, er war auch in der Thule-Gesellschaft ein gern gesehenerGast. Auch hat er nur über eben diesen "Pikenloge" berichtet also ist nichts bewiesen dasauch andere so agieren.</b> Zeig mir doch bitte, wo ich behauptet habe, dass alleFreimaurer inklusive der unteren Ränge kriminell sind?
Manly Hall, einer derhöchstrangigen Freemasons seiner Zeit, trifft die gleiche Aussage wie Pike, Schnoebelenund Co. über die Freimauerische Elite. Denkst du, ich vertraue anhand Fakten wie diesenden Beschwichtigungen eines Freimauers der untersten 3 Grade? Laut dem ehemaligen 32nddegree Mason Schnoebelen werden die Mitglieder der blauen Grade als "porch-masons"bezeichnet. Pike und Hall schreiben, die Masse der Masons "verdient es, getäuscht zuwerden".
<b> Laut meiner Erfahrung ist solches Geschwätzt dazu da das manKritikern euerer Gedankengebäude als verblendet darstellen kann.</b> Dann lies malein Standardwerk über Argumentationstechniken, da wirst du auch jene auf freemasonrywatchgelisteten unfairen Desinfo-Taktiken finden.

Wiesoll das von dir angeführte Pike-Zitat meinem angeführten Pike-Zitat über einefreimaurerische Elite widersprechen? Wie soll das von dir angeführte Zitat Manly HallsAussage widersprechen? Oder Bill Schnoebelens Aussage?

@ Affensaft

Zunächst einmal, hatten wir nicht in einem Beschwerdethread,gestartet von Goldman festgehalten, dass es affig bzw. kindisch ist, die Leute wegenIhrer Grammatik bzw. Orthographie anzupöbeln? Deine Orthographie bzw. Grammatik ist wohlstreckenweise genauso für den A... . Dafür jetzt Denker0815 einen Kommentarreinzudrücken, ist doch AA. Werd mal locker.

Du schriebst:

"Nicht nurbezeichnet er bezeichnet das Freimaurertum ganz eindeutig als Religion, er schreibtdarüberhinaus noch, dass innerhalb des Freimaurertums
eine Elite existiert, welcheden Rest der Organisation über die Wahrheit täuscht.
Zwei weitere Zitate Pikes überdas Freimaurertum und Religion:

"Every lodge is a temple of religion, and itsteaching
instruction in religion." (13)"


Aus Deinem Post ging alsohervor, dass es innerhalb des Freimaurertums eine, die Mitbrüder täuschende Elite gäbe.

Aus dem von mir zitierten Ausschnitt - ebenfalls Morals and Dogma von AlbertPike entnommen - und aus meiner Erfahrung in der ortsansässigen Loge geht das Gegenteilhervor. Das ganze Ziel der Freimaurerei ist eine Entwicklung des Individuums.

Allein schon aus der Pike´schen Darstellung geht es doch hervor:

Ein Mensch,der sich über seine Fehler und Schwächen im Klaren ist. Der ein Bewusstsein dafür hat,dass er niemals der perfekte Mensch sein wird, und dennoch strebt er danach, er bemühtsich darum!

Das kann nicht der Mitbruder verordnen, sondern muss ein jeder mitsich selbst ins Reine bringen. Aber der Mitbruder kann auf diese Schwächen aufmerksammachen, er soll es sogar.

Dies hat nichts mit "Elite" im negativen Sinne zu tun.Man versteht sich dort auch nicht als Elite, sondern als Mensch. Der "perfekte Mensch"(gebildet, höflich, nachsichtig, weise, gutherzig) als solches ist ein elitäres und - ausmeiner Sicht - positives Ziel; aber auch aus Sicht der FM unerreichbar. Man willnachdenken! Sinn finden! Sich selbst und die Mitbrüder zum Sehen statt Wegsehen und immerwieder zum Suchen und der Arbeit an sich selbst animieren.

Dieses Ziel ist dochauch ausserhalb der FM erstrebenswert. FM bedeutet aber, im geistigen Austausch mitMenschen anderer sozialer Herkunft, Bildung, Hautfarbe,monetärer Situation, Ziele,Wünsche, etc. etc. zu treten. Ein bunter Haufen Ungleicher also, die sich immer aufgleicher Augenhöhe begegnen.

Man hätte auch durchaus 100 oder 1000 Stufen indie Riten einarbeiten können. Macht keinen Unterschied. Der Hochgradmaurer trägt immerden Lehrlingsschurz. (Ähnliches wird übrigens auch in den japanischen Kampfsportartenpraktiziert. Großmeister tragen dort einen rot-weissen und schlußendlich oftmals einenweissen Gürtel als Ausdruck des immerwährenden Lernprozesses.)

Das sind aberalles keine Geheimnisse. Diese Dinge können überall nachgelesen - oder miterlebt -werden.

Die Kombination aus Zirkel und Schreinerwinkel ist auch an vielenIndustrie-und-Handels-Kammern und nicht nur ein Freimaurer-Symbol.
Vielleicht solldas ja einfach den Handwerkern gewidmet sein, die an der station mitgebaut haben.

Ein Gedanke, der richtig ist, kann auf die Dauer nicht niedergelogen werden.

@ sebtemberkind...

wenn du dich mal besser erkundigt hättest dan wördest duwissen das die freimauren im jahre 1615 in bayern entstanden sind und der gründer waradam weißhaupt war


noch mal was zu dem symbol das findet man auf jeder 1dolernote und aol hat auch eine pyramide als firmen logo.

Falsch, von was du sprichst ist der Illuminatenorden. Dieser wurde 1776 vom besagten AdamWeißhaupt gegründet. An deiner Stelle würde ich mich besser informieren bevor du so waseinen anderen vorwirfst.

@affensaft
Okay, der Satzbau war echt einemittlere Katastrophe und ich entschuldige mich dafür.

Aber nun zu Albert Pike:

1. "Pike war Klan-Gründer, nicht nur Mitglied."
Er war zwar ein frühesMitglied des Klans, jedoch nicht sein Gründer.
Sechs Offiziere der Südstaaten,nämlich Calvin Jones, John Kennedy,
Frank Mc Cord, John Lester, Richard Reed undJames Crowe gründeten den Klan an Weihnacht 1865


2."Pike war SouvereignGrand Commander und einer der einflussreichsten Freimaurer die je existierten"
EinAusnahmefall war er jetzt nicht, aber auch nicht wirkliches besonderes.
Das erVorsitzender der südlichen Jurisdiktion der Vereinigten Staaten des Schottischen Rituswar stimmt ja. Jedoch war dieser Bereich und der Vorstand eben nicht gerade groß odermachtvoll in Vergleich zu den nördlichen Bereichen.

Das überhaupt Pike sobekannt wurde ist den Franzosen Leo Taxil (wahrer Name Gabriel Antoine Jagand-Pages) zuverdanken.

Taxil hat zum ersten Mal auf sich aufmerksam gemacht als er denPapst eine Affäre unterstellte, dieser belegt ihn deshalb mit einen Busgeld.
Taxilwar das egal, er drosch weiter verbal auf die Kirche ein und schaffte es dass ihn eineFreimaurerloge aufnahm. Er verließ diese jedoch nachdem die Loge ihn einen Aufstieg verwehrte. Daraufhin suchte er wieder die Nähe zu Kirche, das Vertrauen erlangte erdadurch dass er 1885 ein Buch namens "Vollständige Enthüllung der Freimaurerei"verfasste.

Taxil bekam den Segen des Papstes einen Anti-Freimaurerkreuzzugstarten zu dürfen. Er erfand die Person Diana Vaughan, dessen Vater angeblich in Kentuckyeine Satanistenschule leitete, eine der Schüler soll Albert Pike gewesen sein. Diesenerhob Taxil dann auch noch zum obersten aller Freimauren und ließ ihn vor dem fiktivenObersten Rat der weltweit verbundenen Freimaurerei reden. Kernaussage war die das Satander oberste Gott ist und die Freimauren sein Werkzeug zur Unterjochung der Welt sei.

Solche Informationen waren von der Kirche gern gesehen und ließen diese weiterverbreiten. Taxil wollte 1897 in Paris Diana Vaughan, der angeblich jederzeit vonFreimauren bedroht wurde, bei der Geographischen Gesellschaft der Öffentlichkeitvorstellen. Taxi kam auch, jedoch ohne Vaughan. Er erklärte dann vor der Gesellschaft dasalles was er seit 12 Jahren geschrieben hat Schwindel war und er sich so an der Kircheund den Freimaurerlogen gerächt hat.

Bis heute werden von Freimaurengegnerndie Lügen Taxils verbreitet, ob das jetzt die Urfassung ist oder Anschuldigungen das dieFreimaurerei eine kapitalistische/jüdische/faschistische oder sonstige Weltherrschaftanstrebe. Das ganze natürlich immer wieder durch Albert Pikes Mund.

Frage,sind solchen Informationen jetzt zu trauen? Meiner Meinung nach nicht.

Proof that Freemasonry is lying about Albert Pike and theKu Klux Klan










BackgroundAccompaniment: 'The Liberty March', by Brother John Philip Sousa


Left: TheMain Library of the Supreme Council 33° of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite ofFreemasonry, S.J., U.S.A., the Mother Supreme Council of the World, Washington D.C., isdedicated to none other than Confederate General Albert Pike, the KKK's Chief of"Judiciary".

He has lived. The fruits of his labors live after him. - AlbertPike, 33°

These words dedicated to Albert Pike are mounted in bronze near theimpressive, leather-covered doors leading into the Library of The Supreme Council, 33°.They are an appropriate greeting to the user of the Library since today The SupremeCouncil's Library continues Pike's lifework and Freemasonry's mission.

Pike,who admitted to being "capricious in my reading," was an avid collector of books. In hisLittle Rock, Arkansas, home one of the most impressive rooms was the library, and Pikekept an extensive collection of books at his Arkansas mountain cabin retreat where hewrote the first drafts of what was to become Morals and Dogma.

Pike saved whathe could of these books during the turmoil of the Civil War and its aftermath, and whenhe moved to the nation's capital area, he built on these collections, first in his homein Alexandria, Virginia, and then in the first House of the Temple at Third and DStreets, NW, in Washington, DC. his death, he willed all his books to The SupremeCouncil, 33, under the provision that they be made available to the general public at nocharge. Thus in 1891, the House of the Temple Library became, in effect, the first"public library" in the District of Columbia.

Today, many of these books fromPike's personal collection form the nucleus of the Library of The Supreme Council at thepresent House of the Temple at 1733 Sixteenth Street, NW, and they are still availablefor use, free of any charge, by the general public as well as, of course, the Brethren.One of the thrills of conducting research in the Library is, unexpectedly, to come acrossa few words in Pike's own small, meticulous handwriting in some of the older books.

The above description of Pikes importance to Freemasonry from the Supreme Council 33°shows the claims by Masonic Apologists today that Pike is a "nobody" whose "importance isnothing to masonry", who "no one even knows who he is save for a few anti's" to be a realwhopper. Albert Pike is to Freemasonry what Shakespeare is to Drama. One is inseperablefrom the other. Don't let practiced dissemblers tell you anything different.

Right: One of the most widely read occuIt books in the world; Morals and Dogma of theAncient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry. This book is still given to Masons onbeing awarded the 32nd Degree.

Pike has been termed by a number of well knownMasonic authors as the Plato of Freemasonry, and even the Masonic Pope!

Freemasonry, that is to say Organized Freemasonry practices the big lie technique.More to the point organized Freemasonry has perfected the big lie technique. They termthis doublespeak ' diverting the discourse'. In regard to Confederate general, slaver,British spy, convicted Confederate war criminal, Sovereign Grand Commander of the SupremeCouncil 33rd Degree, Ku Klux Klan ritual designer, Ku Klux Klan Chief Judicial Officerand Arkansas Ku Klux Klan Grand Dragon it is necessary to add some superlatives on to theterm 'divert the discourse', because that opaque term doesn't nearly come close todescribing the effort and tactics it has and is employing to cover-up, obscure, deflect,and divert about Pike's leading roll in the KKK's creation.

Please excuse us ifwe seem to go to some length to explain what exactly organized Freemasonry with all it'sthousands of internet sites, millions of members, and billions of net worth is doing inregard to the Albert Pike issue because one has to be very specific when dealing with themasters of parsing. In fact it is likely the case that Freemasonry provided the initialinstruction to intelligence agencies on the most effective methods of usingdisinformation.

First they eliminate all "documents" - not that a oral secretsociety such as Freemasonry or the KKK keeps a paper trail. Then they say no documentsexist or none can be found. If there is any eyewitness testimony included in books orwritings on the topic they deny the books or writings exist, if that fails they attackthe witnesses and try and destroy their character - even if they were masons and therebyignoring their oaths on the matter, and if that fails they attack the character of theauthors themselves - again if they also too were masons. Finally they will simply lie ormischaracterize the nature of a book or writing by terming it 'anti' - even if the workwas 'pro' but written in another time before the fall of the KKK.

The use ofthe term "anti" is one of pure Orwellian rhetoric. All those who write critically ofFreemasonry are anti's and all anti's are frauds, liars, zealots, or extremists andcannot be accepted. Therefore there is no such thing as a legitimate work criticizingFreemasonry because by it's very nature it must be 'anti' and organized Freemasonry willaccept no references from 'anti's' in any debate or discussion of Freemasonry. If perchance the writing was from a mason but was one that was meant not to come out into thepublic view (in the jacket cover of most masonic books is typed that the books must bereturned to the Lodge if the owner dies), or if it was simply written in another timepolitically - such as the case with pro Ku Klux Klan books that extoll the roll of AlbertPike in the KKK, the tact is to attack the authors. Even though at the time the bookswere written Organized Freemasonry was more that happy to accept the kudos of themillions strong KKK on all the wonderful things that Pike did for them.

Anon-mason may provide quote after quote from old masonic or KKK works and Freemasonrywill not accept any of them because anyone who would suggest such a thing today (thenon-mason) would be doing so with the knowledge that it would be harmful to Freemasonry'spublic image and standing, and anyone who would do that would obviously have to be an'anti'. Of course nothing an "Anti" says or writes is acceptable to a Mason. Logiciansterm this circular reasoning and furthermore classify circular reasoning as a fallacy. Afallacy is equivalent to an mathematical error in logic or rhetoric, and it isdisallowed. It is not a legitimate debating method, it is in the same category as adhominem personal attacks. Unfortunately with the Freemasons power it is very difficult tocompete with the deluge of misinformation they spew out repeating these illegitimatedebating and reasoning methods. In crude terms organized Freemasonry's most effectivetactic is to "baffle them with bee's wax". Mountains of it. If it will take a thousandwebsites or a hundered thousand usenet posts to bury the 'anti's' point (which they neverrespond to without employing shabby cut and paste, deletion, or misquoting games) thenthat is what they will do. Masons term this 'good work'.

Right: Atrium of the Supreme Council 33°, Washington DC. A bust of Pike can be seen inthe distance on the landing of the Grand Staircase which leads up to the main temple roomwhich all 33° Masons must file past. Pike is buried in a secret crypt under the stairway,beneath the bust, the only Freemason to be given this "honor".

But what is thepurpose of this exercise? Masons who find themselves on the clear loosing end of a Pikematch (it happens but they quickly cancel the posts or pretend the verbal arguement neveroccured) will say "but even if you are right, so what it happened 150 years ago and hasno bearing today, etc". Here is why it does very much matter. Pike wasn't just anyFreemason he was the head of the Supreme Council which has defacto control of the entireworldwide masonic movement. Therefore the Ku Klux Klan was an official (albiet verysecret) and planned masonic organization with political overtones that foreknowingly wasset up to engage in murder, arson, blackmail and other extra constitutional tactics toachieve the Scottish Rites political objectives. The KKK and Freemasonry relationshipthereby is as a seamless as could be. From it's inception through the open recruiting ofmasons in newspapers to the KKK, to the use of masonic temples and halls for KKKmeetings, to the rituals, rites, and occuIt themes, to the high degree masonic membershipof the leadership of the old and new klans. Even the present cover-up can be seen to bepart of Organized Freemasonry's continued involvement with reactionary politics. Theyhave never stopped, they have never given up. Many have speculated on what happened tothe millions of KKK Members that were on the rolls up to the KKK's final downfall at thehands of the IRS in the 40's. We now know. They simply carried on inside the masoniclodges as if nothing had changed at all. And what really had changed? In most regions ofthe country the local KKK Klavern's membership was indistinguishable from the local'Blue' masonic lodges membership.

After all the KKK had openly advertised innewspapers for new recruits specifiying that masons were preferred! The only change wasthe sheets were stowed away, but the political goals and willingness and capability tofollow through on them carried on. The letter that the head of the Supreme Council wroteabout a Roman Catholic president in 1960 in the official organ of the Scottish Rite -'New Age' magazine, and the continuing practically non-existant black membership in the'blue' lodges, plus the non-recognition as 'regular' of black only Prince Hall lodgestestify's boldly to that.

The 1940's folding was a complete sham. That is whythe desperate defense of Albert Pike. They're still at it, they never went away.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here then gentle, patient readers are the references which prove that the IllustriousAlbert Pike was part of the KKK, and that the KKK and Freemasonry were intrinsicallylinked.




Reference Number ONE.
Ku Klux Klan: Its Origin,Growth, and Disbandment

It was in 1905 that the Neale Publishing Company, NewYork and Washington, published Ku Klux Klan: Its Origin, Growth and Disbandment, writtenand edited by Walter L. Fleming, incorporating earlier published material by J.C. Lesterand D.L. Wilson. Historian Walter Fleming's introduction to this 1905 book explains thathe has been given "information in regard to Ku Klux Klan, by many former members of theorder, and by their friends and relatives." Dr. Fleming states that "General Albert Pike,who stood high in the Masonic order, was the chief judicial officer of the Klan." On apage of illustrations of important founders of the KKK, Dr. Fleming places General Pike'sportrait in the center, makes it larger than the six others on the page, and repeats thisinformation as a caption: "General Albert Pike, chief judicial officer". Dr. Flemingattaches as an appendix to his book, a KKK "prescript" or secret constitution which hadthen recently been discovered. This document sets forth the regulations of the Klan's"judiciary"' department, over which Albert Pike ruled. This is the internal disciplinaryor counterintelligence department. It also corresponds to Pike and the Klan's influenceover the regular court system and the legal profession in the post-civil War southernstates.

As the boss of all the southern secret societies and simultaneouslypresident of the Tennessee Bar Association, Pike was the grand strategist of Klan"justice." It is to be stressed that Walter Fleming's book was not a slander or hatchetjob against Albert Pike. Though it revealed much important data for the first time, itplaced the KKK and Pike in the most favorable possible light. The book was a hit amongdiehard Confederates and Anglo-Saxon "race patriots," and it launched Fleming's career asthe dean of southern historians. Fleming became the leading apologist for the KKK, andwas the father of the modern historical line that Reconstruction was a corrupt oppressionof the South. In September 1903, Fleming had written in the Journal of the SouthernHistory Association: "The very need for such an organization in the disordered conditionsof the time caused the Dens [KKK local units] to begin to exercise the duties of a policepatrol for regulating the conduct of thieving and impudent negroes and similar "loyal'whites...." Dr. Fleming's biases have not hurt his reputation with establishedauthorities. The National Cyclopedia of American Biography calls his 1905 Ku Klux Klanhistory "an authoritative account of that organization." The Dictionary of AmericanBiography states bluntly: "Fleming covered the Civil War and Reconstruction in the Southmore fully than any other man. His works are characterized by ... scholarly objective. ASoutherner, Fleming wrote of the sectional conflict with Southern sympathies yet he wasmore objective than most Southerners of his generation. The historiography of the CivilWar and Reconstruction owes much to his indefatigable research, his breadth ofscholarship, and power of interpretation." Basing his career on his defense of Pike'sKKK, Fleming became dean of arts and sciences at Vanderbilt University in Nashville,Tennessee.

Pike's Tennessee Klan Command

It was in Nashville thatAlbert Pike and other Confederate generals met in 1867 to form a southern states-wideterrorist KKK, expanding the little project they had started two years before in Pulaski,Tenn. The organization he formed in Nashville designated Pike its chief judiciaryofficer, and its Grand Dragon for Arkansas.

As owner-publisher of the Memphis,Tennessee, Daily Appeal, Albert Pike wrote in an editorial on April 16, 1868:

"With negroes for witnesses and jurors, the administration of justice becomes ablasphemous mockery. A Loyal League of negroes can cause any white man to be arrested,and can prove any charges it chooses to have made against him. ...The disenfranchisedpeople of the South ... can find no protection for property, liberty or life, except insecret association.... We would unite every white man in the South, who is opposed tonegro suffrage, into one great Order of Southern Brotherhood, with an organizationcomplete, active, vigorous, in which a few should execute the concentrated will of all,and whose very existence should be concealed from all but its members."
(A copy ofthat issue of Pike's paper may be viewed at the Library of Congress, as may the booksmentioned in this article.)

Left: The Albert Pike Memorial Room inside theSupreme Council 33° Temple, which itself is located 13 blocks directly north of the WhiteHouse in Washington D.C..

But it was as the Sovereign Grand Commander of theScottish Rite, and the recognized boss of the southern white masonic order, that Pikeexercised the great clandestine power that welded the KKK together. Dr. Walter Flemingdesignates Confederate Major James R. Crowe as the pre-eminent source for his 1905 KKKHistory, and describes Crowe as one of the original KKK founders in Pulaski. Fleming saysthat Major Crowe "held high rank in the Masonic order." In his honor roll of "well-knownmembers of the Klan," Dr. Fleming places "General John C. Brown, of Pulaski, Tennessee"and "Colonel Joseph Fussell, of Columbia, Tennessee."

General Brown and ColonelFussell, like Major Crowe, are identifiable as soldiers of Albert Pike's masonic order.General Brown had been a master mason in the Pulaski lodge for 15 years when the KKK wasformed there, and became grand master of Tennessee Masons and governor of Tennesseeduring the Klan's era of power. Colonel Fussell was commandant of Tennessee's masonicKnights Templar during the Klan rule. The preceding masonic information is taken fromTennessee Templars: A Register of Names with Biographical Sketches of the Knights Templarof Tennessee by James D. Richardson. This James D. Richardson was himself the Commandantof Knights Templar and Grand Master of Masons in Tennessee, and was speaker of theTennessee House of Representatives during the era of the Klan power. This same James D.Richardson was Albert Pike's successor as commander of the southern Scottish Rite masons.It was this same Richardson who ordered the Pike statue to be erected in Washington, D.C.It was Richardson who, as a U.S. congressman from Tennessee, introduced into the U.S.House of Representatives the infamous 1898 resolution: It called for the federalgovernment to provide federal land to Richardson's masonic organization, on which to putup their statue honoring the master strategist of KKK terror.




Reference Number TWO.
The KKK on Parade

Susan Lawrence Davis's 1924Authentic History, Ku Klux Klan, 1865-1877, repeats the pattern Fleming created in 1905,revealing Pike's KKK role but treating him and the Klan sympathetically. The Davis bookwas written to celebrate the new, 20th-century KKK, which was just then stagingfull-dress mass marches in Washington and northern cities such as Detroit. In her chapteron General Pike's leadership of the Klan, Miss Davis applauds Pike's clever stewardshipof the KKK secret organization. She reproduces in her KKK history an oil portrait ofAlbert Pike given to her for the KKK book by Pike's son.




Reference Number THREE.
The Tragic Era

The same is true of otherbook-length histories of the Klan and numerous published biographies of Albert Pike:Pike's role as Klan leader or KKK boss of Arkansas is discussed, but treated as if KKKterrorist murder of African-Americans was "regrettable" but "only natural" and"understandable." In his book, The Tragic Era, Claude Bowers, who served many years asthe U.S. ambassador to Spain and to Chile, described Albert Pike as one of the handful ofdistinguished, respectable founders of the KKK and the Klan's leader in Arkansas.

Bowers describes the KKK as patriotic southerners defending their way of life fromout-of-control blacks and northerners.

Bowers wrote that much of the KKK'salleged violence was actually perpetrated by Negroes disguised in Klan robes to wreakvengeance on other Negroes!




Reference Number FOUR.
TheFiery Cross

"Prominent Southern gentlemen were later cited as state leaders ofthe Invisible Empire. Alabama claimed General John T. Morgan as Grand Dragon. Arkansaswas headed by General Albert Pike, explorer and poet. North Carolina was led by formergovernor Zebulon Vance, and Georgia by General John B. Gordon, later a U.S. Senator."

Reference Number FIVE.
The Aryan's

Albert Pike also wrote extensivelyon the mythtical super-race of the Aryans, extolling their virtues, imagined history, andreligion which he tried to show was the precursor of Freemasonry in is numerous PublishedWorks. It would seem that Pike was a fellow traveller with Blavatsky on this subject.Fifty years later in Central Europe there will be others who will take up this mantle anduse these writings as the basis for a ideology that curiously enough will also use theterm 'new world order' to describe it's agenda. Just a co-incidence of course.

Views of General ALBERT PIKE, Sovereign Grand Commander, A. & A. Scottish Rite.ALEXANDRIA, Va., 13th September, 1875.

My DEAR FRIEND AND BROTHER.-I can see asplainly as that the negro question is going to make trouble. Then plenty of regular negroMasons and negro lodges in South America and the West Indies, and our folks only stave ofthe question by saying that negro Masons here are clandestine. Prince Hall Lodge was asregular a Lodge as any lodge created by competent authority, and had a perfect right (asother lodges in Europe did) to establish other lodges, making itself a mother Lodge.That's the way the Berlin lodges, Three Globes and Royal York, became Grand Lodges.

The Grand Orient of Hayti is as regular as any other. So is the Grand Orient of theDominican Republic, which, I dare say, has negroes in it and negro lodges under it.

Again, if the negro lodges are not regular, they can easily get regularized. If ourGrand Lodges won't recognize negro lodges, they have the right to go elsewhere. The GrandLodge can't say to eight or more Masons, black or white, we will not give you a charterbecause you are negroes, or because you wish to work the Scottish Rite, and you shall notgo elsewhere to get one. That latter part is bosh.

Hamburg recognizes the GrandLodges. Yes, and so the German Grand Lodge Confederation is going to do, and so will theGrand Orient of France before long.

Of course, if negrophily continues to be thereligion established by law of your States, there will be before long somewhere abeginning of recognition of negro lodges. Then the Royal Arch and Templar bodies ofnegroes must be taken in, and Masonry go down to their level. Will your plan work? Ithink not. I think there is no middle ground between rigid exclusion of negroes orrecognition and affiliation with the whole mass.

If they are not Masons, howprotect them as such or at all ? If they are Masons, how deny them affiliation or havetwo supreme powers in one jurisdiction.

I am not inclined to meddle in thematter. I took my obligations to white men, not to negroes. When I have to accept negroesas brothers or leave Masonry, I shall leave it.

I am interested to keep theAncient and Accepted Rite uncontaminated, in our country at least, by the leprosy ofnegro association. Our Supreme Council can defend its jurisdiction, and it is thelaw-maker. There can not be a lawful body of that Rite in our jurisdiction unless it iscreated by us.

I am not so sure but that, what with immensity of numbers, wantof a purpose worth laboring for, general indifference to obligations, pitiful charity andlarge expenses, fuss, feathers and fandango, big temples and large debts, Masonry isbecome a great helpless, inert mass that will some day, before long, topple over, and gounder. If you wish it should, I think you can hasten the catastrophe by urging aprotectorate of the negroes. Better let the thing drift. Apres noun le, deluge.

Truly, yours,
ALBERT PIKE

The Knights of the Golden Circle

Brigadier General Albert Pike organized andlead the African Slave Owning Cherokee Indians in the Oklahoma Territory who were part ofthe Masonic Knights of the Golden Circle, in their own secret society called theKeetowah. Under Pikes Generalship this Brigade raped, pillaged, and murdered civiliancommunities in the Oklahoma and Missori Territories. For these "good works" BrotherAlbert became a Convicted War Criminal in a War Crimes Trial held after the Civil Warsend. Unfortunately the "Pope" and "Plato" of Freemasonry had to be tried in absentiabecause he had fled to British Territory in Canada. Second Generation British-AmericanPike has also been alledged to have been working for the Crown as an agent and key civilwar agitator. Pike only returned to the U.S. after his hand picked Scottish RiteSuccsessor James Richardon 33° got a pardon for him after, making President Johnson a 33°Scottish Mason in a ceremony held inside the White House itself! In fact given Mr. Pikesleadership roll in the Knights of the Golden Circle and the fact that the name Ku KluxKlan is a version of Circle (Kluklos) it seems pretty clear to most researchers who washigher up the secret society occuIt ladder and therefore more instrumental in thefounding of the Klan - Mason/Confederate General Nathan Bedford Forest orMason/Confederate General/ Knights of the Golden Circle Leader/British Agent/ ScottishRite Supreme Council Head Albert Pike 33°.

Conclusion
Rather than quake in fear when Masonic Propagandists putsthe muscle on (as in the case of the 1990's Pike Statue removal fight in WashingtonD.C.), a citizen or his political representative ought to put this question to GeneralPike's defenders: "Do you say that Professor Fleming, Miss Davis, Mr. Bowers, and all theother pro-Confederate historians were liars when they wrote of Pike's marvelous deeds asKKK founder and leader?" They want to have it both ways: first to issue propagandajustifying Klan terrorism as the work of "respectable'' men like Pike; later, when theirhero is under attack, to claim that their own propaganda slanders their man!

In 1995 African-Americanand Anti-Racist Groups attempted to get Pike's statue near the Federal Department ofJustice Building in "Judiciary" Square taken down but were out lobbied by the SupremeCouncil 33°, who were able to successfully mobilize fellow Scottish Rite 'travellingbrethren' inside the powerful ADL of the Grand Lodge of B'nai B'rith, who then toldpoliticians and officials that no evidence existed for Pike's involvement in the KKK.Brother heal thyself.

We predict Grand-Wizard Pike's future in Judiciary Squareis about as promising as the statues of assorted henchman that used to sit outside KGBheadquarters in Moscow under the hammer and sickle.

The worm has turned,brethren.
