What Is The Illuminati? Yahoo Posts Alleged List Of Celebrities Who Rep The Occult Sign And More Conspiracy Theories …

On Monday, Yahoo News posted a story with photographic proof of celebrities that have raised suspicions about their connections to the secretive group. From Jay Z and wife Beyonce, to Madonna, Lindsay Lohan and Rihanna, the story included photos of the stars holding the secret Illuminati symbol, or holding a triangle shape with their thumbs and forefingers in the air.

In the expose, Yahoo News, which boasts 83 million unique visitors a month, explained:

There is a part of the world that believes certain famous faces yield more power than others. This power, they believe, stems from the backing of an ancient German secret society that quietly rules the world: the Illuminati (yes, the same group Tom Hanks sought in Angels & Demons). The mysterious sect is thought to be a front for the rise of the Antichrist the Devil's all-seeing eye triangle is their universal sign and is often accused of masterminding large-scale events (think President JFK's assassination) in an attempt to establish a New World Order, in which they can rule.

The story has been making the rounds and rousing interest in fans, who have posted more than 3,000 comments on the original article. Yahoo said the following celebrities were part of the Illuminati: Lindsay Lohan, Jay Z, Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Madonna, Kanye West, Ke$ha, Kim Kardashian and LeBron James.

While some news outlets like The Guardian laughed about the report, the buzz has also generated a curiosity in the Illuminati itself. The group is an alleged conspiratorial organization which reportedly mastermind events and control world affairs from finance and government to religion and culture to establish a New World Order. This New World Order, or a one-world authoritarian government, finds a way to link these alleged famous celebrities to the likes of the Pope and even Queen Elizabeth II.

But according to The Liberty Voice, none of the celebrities outed by Yahoo, or anyone for that matter, are actually part of the Illuminatibecause it does not exist.

No stars are members of the Illuminati because an organized and powerful group such as this cannot, does not, and will never exist. What does exist is normal, otherwise rational human beings with a propensity toward natural brain processes to find patterns and meanings in random events that are not actually connected. This phenomenon is called confirmation bias, or, looking for evidence that confirms the theory onewantsto be true.

The newspaper continued:

Todays modern Illuminati is nothing more than a racist, anti-Semitic, and sometimes paranoid version of an unreachable fantasy; a societal meme that has taken hold in a portion of the population so strongly that now even reputable companies like Yahoo are feeding into the hysteria.

The Liberty Voice rationalized the hand symbol frequently used by celebrities could, instead, indicate a connection or in support of Jay Z, who used the Illuminati symbol to promote his record company, Roc A Fella Records.
