Bill Schnoebelen

Bill Schnoebelen with a dope beard

Bill Schnoebelen (aka Christopher P. Syn) claims to be a “90th Degree Mason” (Ancient Egyptian Rite of Memphis-Misraim) ex-Illuminati member, ex-Vampire, 9th degree York Rite Freemason, Rosicrucian, Wiccan High Priest, Witch, Spiritualist Minister, Knight Templar, Druidic High Priest, Satanic Priest, Catholic Priest, Bishop and Satanic Warlock. Bill popped up on the internet through a few of his Prophecy Club lectures on Freemasonry, Witchcraft, Illuminati, Vampirism and  Satanism. Bill provides generally coherent information excluding the vampire stuff. Bill claims to have been saved by “the power of Jesus Christ” and has grown his hair and beard longer and longer. He was seen at a UFO conference (with Stan Deyo, David Wilcock, Michael Heiser and others) wearing a yamaka, sporting a long white beard and generally acting strange.

Claims

Bill puts together a coherent synthesis of information claiming many of the same recurring internet tidbits such as Freemasonry being a sun cult obsessed with phallic symbols and the Generative Principle. Bill seems to have a somewhat firm grip of understanding of the basic Freemasonry rites and rituals. Bill can be seen reciting lengthy masonic literature from memory and has seemingly memorized many verses from the Bible. He ties in how the original masons built Solomon’s Temple and the secrets were held with Solomon and Hiram Abiff. He claims Freemasonry was infiltrated by the Bavarian Illuminati as a satanic “illuministic” cult seeking to spread evil. However, he does not provide an argument for who the Bavarian Illuminati are or what their motives are. He does say that the Bavarian Illuminati shortly produced two key people, Francis Bacon (The New Atlantis book), and Elias Ashmole.

According to Wikipedia

Elias Ashmole was an antiquary with a strong Baconian bent for the study of nature. His library reflects his intellectual outlook, including works on English history, law, numismatics, chorography, alchemy, astrology, astronomy, and botany. Although he was one of the founding members of the Royal Society, a key institution in the development of experimental science, his interests were antiquarian and mystical as well as scientific. He was an early Freemason, although the extent of his involvement and commitment is unclear.

Bill Schnoebelen claims Freemasonry’s history in chronological order as the following:

• Nimrod
• Egyptian Mysteries of Isis and Osiris
• King Solomon and Hiram Abiff
• The Rites of Eleusis
• The Dionysian Artificers
• Qabalah and Gnosticism
• The Hashishim (Assassins)
• The Knights Templar
• The Stone Masons’ Guild
• Brothers of the Rosey Cross (Rosicrucians)
• The admission of wealthy “speculative masons”
• The Mother Lodge of England in 1717
• Bavarian Illuminati Order in 1776 (Designed to infiltrate Freemasonry)
• William Morgan’s Anti-Masonry movement
• The Scottish Rite and Albert Pike’s revitalization of Freemasonry
• The 20th century Masonic Renaissance

Bill’s list of Demonic Forces:

• Tubalcain (2 ball cane)
• Baphomet (Goat)
• Jahbulon (Trigod of Freemasonry)
• Hiram Abiff
• Dagon

Bill claims to have made it as far as the Ordo Templi Orlientis in the above diagram. Certainly someone this high up in this theoretical compartmentalized system of control would be instantly killed if they were to become disloyal. This is exactly where the skepticism of Bill is rooted.

The Palladium

Cuttingedge.org

Palladism is necessarily a Luciferian rite. Its religion is Manichaean neo-gnosticism, teaching that the divinity is dual, and that Lucifer is the equal of Adonay, with Lucifer the God of Light and Goodness, struggling for humanity against Adonay, the God of Darkness and Evil .. Albert Pike had only specified and unveiled the dogmas of the high grades of all other Masonries, for in no matter what rite, the Great Architect of the Universe is not the God worshipped by the Christians.

Wikipedia:

Palladists is a name for an alleged Theistic Satanism society or member of that society. The name Palladian comes from Pallas and refers to wisdom and learning.

Theistic Satanism, also known as Traditional Satanism or Spiritual Satanism, is a form of Satanism with the primary belief that Satan is an actual deity or force worthy of reverence or worship.^[1][2] Other characteristics of Theistic Satanism may include a belief in magic, which is manipulated through ritual, although that is not a defining criterion, and theistic Satanists may focus solely on devotion. Unlike LaVeyan Satanism, which was founded by Anton LaVey in the 1960s, Theistic Satanism is theistic as opposed to atheistic, believing that Satan is a real being, as opposed to purely a symbol of individualism.

The 9 (Nine) “Unknown Men”

Wikipedia:

The Nine Unknown Men are a legendary two millennia-old secret society reputedly founded by the Indian Emperor Asoka c. 270 BC. According to the legend, upon his conversion to Buddhism after a massacre during one of his wars, the Emperor founded the society of the Nine to preserve and develop knowledge that would be dangerous to humanity if it fell into the wrong hands. Some versions of the story include an additional motivation for the Emperor to conceal scientific knowledge: remnants of the Rama Empire, an Indian version of Atlantis, which according to Hindu scripture was destroyed by advanced weaponry 15,000 years ago. The early appearance of the society in the fictional works of Louis Jacolliot and Talbot Mundy has led some to conclude that the legend is a modern fabrication.

The Nine Books

1. Propaganda and Psychological warfare is a concerted set of messages aimed at influencing the opinions or behavior of large numbers of people. Instead of impartially providing information, propaganda in its most basic sense presents information in order to influence its audience. It is the most dangerous of all sciences, as it is capable of moulding mass opinion. It would enable anyone to govern the whole world.

2. Physiology is the study of the mechanical, physical, and biochemical functions of living organisms. The book of The Nine included instructions on how to perform the “touch of death (death being caused by a reversal of the nerve-impulse).” One account has Judo being a product of material leaked from this book.

3. Microbiology, and, according to more recent speculation, Biotechnology. In some versions of the myth, the waters of the Ganges are purified with special microbes designed by the Nine and released into the river at a secret base in the Himalayas. Multitudes of pilgrims, suffering from the most appalling diseases, bathe in them without harming the healthy ones. The sacred waters purify everything. Their strange properties have been attributed to the fact that they contain bacteriophages.^{[citation needed]}

4. Alchemy, including the transmutation of metals. In India, there is a persistent rumor that during times of drought or other natural disasters temples and religious organizations receive large quantities of gold from an unknown source. The mystery is further deepened with the fact that the sheer quantity of gold throughout the country in temples and with kings cannot be properly accounted for, seeing that India has few gold mines.

5. Communication, including communication with extraterrestrials.

6. Gravitation. Book 6 The Vaiminaka sastra is said to contain the instructions necessary to build a Vimana, sometimes referred to as the “ancient UFOs of India.”

7. Cosmology, the capacity to travel at enormous speeds through spacetime fabric, and time-travel; including intra- and inter-universal trips.

8. Light, the capacity to increase and decrease the speed of light, to use it as a weapon by concentrating it in a certain direction etc.

9. Sociology, including rules concerning the evolution of societies and how to predict their downfall.

Doing some quick research on Asoka, the Emperor who founded this society, we stumble upon the Lion capital of Ashoka which is a sculpture of four “Indian lions” standing back to back. It was originally placed atop the Aśoka pillar at Sarnath, now in the state of Uttar Pradesh, India. The pillar, sometimes called the Aśoka Column is still in its original location, but the Lion Capital is now in the Sarnath Museum. This Lion Capital of Ashoka from Sarnath has been adopted as the National Emblem of India and the wheel “Ashoka Chakra” from its base has been placed onto the center of the National Flag of India.

Sarnath Lion Capital of Ashoka

This statue looks incredibly like Ezekiel’s description of the Cherubim “wheel in a wheel” from Ezekiel 1. It even has wheels on the bottom. Wtf is going on here?

This legend goes back to the time of the Emperor Asoka, who reigned in India from 273 B.C. He was the grandson of Chandragupta who was the first to unify India. Ambitious like his ancestor whose achievements he was anxious to complete, he conquered the region of Kalinga which lay between what is now Calcutta and Madras. The Kalingans resisted and lost 100,000 men in the battle. At the sight of this massacre Asoka was overcome. Forever after he experienced a horror of war. He renounced the idea of trying to integrate the rebellious people, declaring that the only true conquest was to win men’s hearts by observance of the laws of duty and piety, because the Sacred Majesty desired that all living creatures should enjoy security, peace and happiness and be free to live as they pleased. A convert to Buddhism, Asoka, by his own virtuous example, spread this religion throughout India and his entire empire which included Malaya, Ceylon and Indonesia. Later Buddhism penetrated to Nepal, Tibet, China and Mongolia. Asoka nevertheless respected all religious sects. He preached vegetarianism, abolished alcohol and the slaughter of animals. H.G. Wells, in his abridged version of his _Outline Of World History_ wrote: “Among the tens of thousands of names of monarchs accumulated in the files of history, the name of Asoka shines almost alone, like a star.” It is said that the Emperor Asoka, aware of the horrors of war, wished to forbid men ever to put their intelligence to evil uses. During his reign natural science, past and present, was vowed to secrecy. Henceforward, and for the next 2,000 years, all researches, ranging from the structure of matter to the techniques employed in collective psychology, were to be hidden behind the mystical mask of a people commonly believed to be exclusively concerned with ectasy and supernatural phenomena. Asoka founded the most powerful secret society on earth: that of the Nine Unknown Men. It is still thought that the great men responsible fro the destiny of modern India, and scientists like Bose and Ram believe in the existence of the Nine, and even receive advice and messages from them. One can imagine the extraordinary importance of secret knowledge in the hands of nine men benefiting directly from experiments, studies and documents accumulated over a period of more than 2,000 years. What can have been the aim of these men? Not to allow methods of destruction to fall into the hands of unqualified persons and to pursue knowledge which would benefit mankind. Their numbers would be renewed by co-option, so as to preserve the secrecy of techniques handed down from ancient times. Examples of the Nine Unknown Men making contact with the outer world are rare. There was, however, the extraordinary case of one of the most mysterious figures in Western history: the Pope Sylvester II, known also by the name of Gerbert d’Aurillac. Born in the Auvergne in 920 (d. 1003) Gerbert was a Benedictine monk, professor at the University of Rheims, Archbishop of Ravenna and Pope by the grace of Ortho III. He is supposed to have spent some time in Spain, after which a mysterious voyage brought him to India where he is reputed to have aquired various kinds of skills which stupified his entourage. For example, he possessed in his palace a bronze head which answered YES or NO to questions put to it on politics or the general position of Christianity. According to Sylvester II this was a perfectly simple operation corresponding to a two-figure calculation, and was performed by an automaton similar to our modern binary machines. This “magic” head was destroyed when Sylvester died, and all the information it imparted carefully concealed. No doubt an authorized research worker would come across some interesting things in the Vatican Library. In the cybernetics journal, _Computers and Automation_ of October 1954, the following comment appeared: “We must suppose that he (Sylvester) was possessed of extraordinary knowledge and the most remarkable mechanical skill and inventiveness. This speaking head must have been fashioned ‘under a certain conjunction of stars occring at the exact moment when all the planets were starting on their courses.’ Neither the past, nor the present nor the future entered into it, since this invention apparently far exceeded in its scope its rival, the perverse ‘mirror on the wall’ of the Queen, the precursor of our modern electronic brain. Naturally it was widely asserted that Gerbert was only able to produce such a machine head because he was in league with the Devil and had sworn eternal allegiance to him.” Had other Europeans any contact with the society of the Nine Unknown Men? It was not until the nineteenth century that this mystery was referred to again in the works of the French writer Jacolliot. Jacolliot was French Consul at Calcutta under the Second Empire. He wrote some quite important prophetic works, comparable, if not superior to those of Jules Verne. He also left several books dealing with the great secrets of the human race. A great many occult writers, prophets and miracle-workers have borrowed from his writings which, completely neglected in France, are well known in Russia. Jacolliot states catagorically that the Soceity of Nine did actually exist. And, to make it all the more intriguing, he refers in the this connection to certain techniques, unimaginable in 1860, such as, for example, the liberation of energy, sterilization by radiation and psychological warfare. Yersin, one of Pasteur and de Roux’s closest collaborators, was entrusted, it seems, with certain biological secrets when he visited Madras in 1890, and following the instructions he received was able to prepare a serum against cholera and the plague. The story of the Nine Unknown Men was popularized for the first time in 1927 in a book by Talbot Mundy who for twenty-five years was a member of the British police force in India. His book is half-fiction, half scientific inquiry. The Nine apparently employed a synthetic language, and each of them was in possession of a book that was constantly being rewritten and containing a detailed account of some science. The first of these books is said to have been devoted to the technique of propaganda and psychological warfare. “The most dangerous of all sciences,” wrote Mundy, “is that of moulding mass opinion, because it would enable anyone to govern the whole world.” It must be remembered that Korjybski’s _General Semantics_ did not appear until 1937 and that it was not until the West had the experience of the last World War that the techniques of psychology of language, i.e., propaganda, could be formulated. The first American college of semantics only came into being in 1950. In France almost the only book that at all well known is Serge Tchocotine’s _Le Viol des Foules_ which has had a considerable influence in intellectual polical circles, although it deals only superficially with the subject. The second book was on physiology. It explained, among other things, how it is possible to kill a man by touching him, death being caused by a reversal of the nerve-impulse. It is said that Judo is a result of “leakages” from this book. The third volume was a study on microbiology, and dealt especially with protective colloids. The fourth was concerned with the transmutation of metals. There is a legend that in times of drought temples and religious relief organizations received large quanities of fine gold from a secret source. The fifth volume contains a study of all means of communication, terrestial and extra-terrestial. The sixth expounds the secrets of gravitation. The seventh contains the most exhaustive cosmogony known to humanity. The eighth deals with light. The ninth volume, on sociology, gives the rules for the evolution of societies, and means of foretelling their decline. Connected with the Nine Unknown Men is the mystery of the waters of the Ganges. Multitudes of pilgrims, suffering from the most appalling diseases, bathe in them without harming the healthy ones. The sacred waters purify everything. Their strange properties have been attributed to the fact that they contain bacteriophages. But why should these not be formed in the Bramaputra, the Amazon or the Seine? Jacolliot in his book advances the theory of sterilization by radiation, a hundred years before such a thing was thought to be possible. These radiations, he says, probably come from a secret temple hollowed out in the bed of the Ganges. Avoiding all forms of religious, social or political agitations, deliberately and perfectly concealed from the public eye, the Nine were the incarnation of the ideal man of science, serenely aloof, but conscious of his moral obligations. Having the power to mold the destiny of the human race, but refraining from its exercise, this secret society is the finest tribute imaginable to freedom of the most exalted kind. Looking down from the watch-tower of their hidden glory, these Nine Unknown Men watched civilizations being born, destroyed and re-born again, tolerant rather than indifferent, and ready to come to the rescue — but always observing that rule of silence that is the mark of human greatness. Myth or reality? A magnificent myth, in any case, and one that has issued from the depths of time — a harbinger, maybe, of the future? Talbot Mundy wrote a book called “The Nine Unknown” based on the legend, here is a review of it: “Perhaps the perfect balance between pulp high adventure and mystical novel was achieved in The Nine Unknown. (1923/1924), written and published right before the Tibetan opus Om. The novel is based on a persistant legend brought back to the west from the East, about the existence of nine unknown perfected men who watched over India, and guarded its secrets. In Mundy’s novel there turns out to be nine unknown men who work for the good of mankind, and a dark shadowy nine who worship Kali and work to destroy the work of the others. JimGrim and his crew must try to sort out which is which if they are to survive. The novel was a favorite of Pauwels and Bergier, whose discussion of “the nine” was a prototype “open conspiracy” for planetary change in their influencial Morning of the Magicians. The use of Mundy’s ideas in Pauwels and Bergier’s book was probably was one of the prime reasons for the Mundy revival in the 1960s. The Nine Unknown remains my favorite of the JimGrim novels, and ranks at the very top of my picks of Mundy’s works. It is truely unfortunate that the novel has remained out of print since the late 1960s.”

The Seven

Does “The Seven” refer to the seven black flickering tongues of Agni the Hindu god of fire? The god of fire as in Zeus? The fire that Prometheus stole and gave to Earth?

Kali. The force of time, the eternal energy.

Wikipedia:

Kali (Sanskrit: काली, Bengali: কালী, both Kālī), also known as Kalika (Bengali: কালিকা, Kālikā), is a Hindu goddess associated with eternal energy. The name Kali means “black”, but has by folk etymology come to mean “force of time (kala)”. Despite her negative connotations, she is today considered the goddess of time and change. Although sometimes presented as dark and violent, her earliest incarnation as a figure of annihilation still has some influence. More complex Tantric beliefs sometimes extend her role so far as to be the “ultimate reality” or Brahman. She is also revered as Bhavatarini (literally “redeemer of the universe”). Comparatively recent devotional movements largely conceive Kali as a benevolent mother goddess.

Kali is represented as the consort of god Shiva, on whose body she is often seen standing. She is associated with many other Hindu goddesses like Durga, Bhadrakali, Sati, Rudrani, Parvati and Chamunda. She is the foremost among the Dasa-Mahavidyas, ten fierce Tantric goddesses.

According to The Arcana of Freemasonry by Albert Churchward:
