"In times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act." - George Orwell

Pythagorean Illuminism, the religion of the Illuminati, formally began with the ancient Greek mystic and mathematician Pythagoras and is the world's only "Logos" 

religion i.e. a rational religion founded on reason, mathematics, science and philosophy. It has no connection with "Mythos" religions such as Judaism, Christianity 

and Islam which are based on faith, superstition, irrationality, stories, parables, myths, legends and "divine revelation". These religions are wholly false.

Illumination is the only true religion. It's the Grand Unified Theory of Everything, linking science, religion, psychology, philosophy and even the paranormal. It does 

so via the sole medium of truth and absolute knowledge: mathematics, which Pythagoras declared the arche, the fundamental substance of existence. Ontology and 

epistemology are finally united in the doctrine of "living mathematics". Mathematics is not a reflection or model of reality. Mathematics IS reality.

Whereas science is based on "mathematical materialism", Illumination uses Leibnizian "mathematical idealism". These are the only two possible accounts of reality. All 

other systems are bogus, worthless and pernicious.

In order to follow the one, true religion, you must be smart. Quite simply, the truth is not for everyone. The truth is a function of reason, not faith. All atheists, 

agnostics, skeptics and cynics will find a spiritual home within Illuminism. They are most welcome. "Believers" are not.

The Pythagorean Illuminati are the sworn enemies of Abrahamism (the deranged belief system that God would order fathers to kill their children), privileged elites and 

the infantile legions of conspiracy theorists. Do not read our books if you would be prepared to murder your child if "God" ordered it, or if you believe in shape-

shifting lizards. Only seekers of true enlightenment will profit from reading our work.
