Society and Culture: Are Secret Societies a Threat?

Some celebrities have confessed that they “sold their soul to the devil” for fame and fortune. They say that it takes more than just great talent if you want to make it to the top, or rather, make it to the top quickly. I mean ... you're in a hurry and want to enjoy it while you're still young.  Right?  But what do they mean by selling their soul?  Come on!  Are there secret societies (or exclusive networks) in the entertainment business that make aspiring super-stars sign their name in blood?

There are “theories” (of course, NO PROOF) that groups like the Illuminati, Freemasons, and Bohemian Club operate surreptitiously behind the scenes, establishing careers, and influencing trends, and global pop culture.

Isn't P. Diddy kind of accused of doing that, along with other nefarious activities? Although … one might argue that being an influencer is one thing, and being a hard core criminal is another. The two don't necessarily go hand in hand. But it kind of looks like there's is a “thin line” in between that's easy to cross over.

OK! OK! There is no concrete evidence proving the existence of these societies but the rumors circulating about them are FUN, FUN, FUN!!  (A
s much fun as creating this AI-generated art using a tool called DreamUp.)

Did you hear?  Beyoncé and Jay-Z are members of the Illuminati.

Uh-huh. And this strikes fear in me because … ???  ... WHY?

Well, at least now I get Ray Romano’s joke about them being the most powerful couple in America. :)  But Jay-Z and his lovely wife, Beyoncé, are probably laughing way harder than everybody else.

Read an article about so-called secret societies – Freemasons, Rosicrucian Order, Illuminati, etc.  Top 5 Secret Societies | Wizzley.com




This provides a wealth of material for anyone who wants to write about it. But to take these groups seriously? WHY?

  • Are they dangerous??
  • Because they have a secret??
  • Because they are secretive??
  • Because they might also have a lot of money and possibly some influence on persons in high places, and can change the course of the world??!!!! And you have no control over it?? 

Gimme a break! Who doesn’t have a secret?? 

Rich or poor. Between dreaming and having your own secrets, can’t nobody control you!! 

**** Hmmm … this is kind of an afterthought, but … UM … Such a type of organization could be a threat to the members. Everything being so hush-hush - if a crime were committed, where would they go for justice? Maybe the Cosa Nostra probably holds court on the weekends. (O.o)

Witches vs Secret Societies: Threat or Real Threat?

In Judaism, during Bible times, the practice of witchcraft was forbidden. Not just witches, but sorcerers, soothsayers, fortune-tellers (psychics), etc. Those who engaged in such activities were counted as nothing more than deceivers with evil intent. The practitioners claimed that they had supernatural powers and some sort of direct connection to the gods or God, which they did not have. Because they dared to say that they could communicate as a medium or intercessor and could convey messages to and from the Divine, knowing full well that they had no such powers or capabilities, how could their intentions have been pure and honest? There was no doubt that their aim or purpose was to defraud another person or do even worse than that. For this reason, the punishment for practicing witchcraft was severe. (That's my understanding.) 



During the first century, converts to Christianity, openly and publicly renounced the practices of witchcraft, sorcery, etc. - referred to as "curious arts" - and professed that their faith was the only power needed to overcome evil and to commune with the Creator.
