关于“光明会”的50件事情

本期关于光明会的50件事情是为了帮助有兴趣的朋友了解更多信息,所有这些都是光明会卡牌的灵感来源,无论它是事实还是谎言,都在一定程度上让人开了眼界,颠覆了世界观。

虽然我们对光明会/共济会这样的神秘组织已经耳熟能详,但其实大部分人分不清这两个组织的区别。比如一看到“全视之眼”,就认定是光明会,而事实是它也被共济会所使用。所以在深入介绍卡牌之前,想先分享卡牌设计者史蒂夫·杰克逊提供的“关于光明会的50件事情”这篇文章,虽然每一条都很简短,但信息量巨大,可以很好地帮助我们理解卡牌设计的思路(更重要的是,你能更好的理解什么是光明会,然后再尝试理解他们为什么要做那些事,以及怎么做到)。

关于“光明会”的50件事情

01.There are many Illuminated groups, with different kinds of secret knowledge. Anything you might say about them(including this) will be false for some of the Illuminati, but true for others, which only adds to the confusion and mystery.

光明会有很多分支,他们拥有不同的神秘知识。你所谈及到的任何关于光明会的信息(当然也包括这条)对一些光明会分支来说都是错误的,但对其他光明会来说又是正确的。这使得光明会更加神秘,人们也更加困惑。

亚历山大图书馆:馆内收藏了公元前400-前300年时期的手稿,拥有最丰富的古籍收藏,后因战火被毁,所有古籍失踪,但据传是被光明会转移并据为己有。

02.The Illuminati infiltrate and take over organizations of all kinds, from churches to the post office to the corner grocery store, and turn them to their own ends.

光明会渗透并接管了各种组织,从教堂到邮局再到街角的杂货店,并他们为己所用。

03.And, just as a black joke, some of their subject organizations advertise themselves as Secret Societies.

而且,就像一个黑色幽默一样,一些被控制的组织会宣传自己是秘密社团。

04.They have agents and“sleepers” planted everywhere. Many of these people have no idea who they are really reporting to. Others are active members of the conspiracy, working their way ever deeper into the fabric of society.

他们到处安插间谍和“潜伏者”。但在这些人中,大部分都不知道自己在向谁汇报,而另外一部分人则热衷于阴谋,他们的工作深入到了社会的细枝末节。

05.They control the schools in order to make sure that young people learn to enjoy strange tuneless music and weird outlandish games, and that they dress oddly.

他们控制着学校,以确保年轻人学会欣赏难听的音乐和古怪的游戏,并确保他们穿着怪异。

06.They also try to recruit the best and the brightest young people as agents, to insure the next generation of the Conspiracy.

他们还试图招募最优秀和最聪明的年轻人作为代理人,以确保阴谋可以延续到下一代。

07.They constantly feud among themselves and war with other groups and organizations. Each group of Illuminati is constantly striving to increase its power base and undermine the competition.

他们之间经常发生争执,并与其他团体和组织交战。每一个光明会团体都在不断努力以加固自己的权利并破坏公平竞争。

08.Their first means of dealing with opposition is to buy it off. To any group as rich as the Illuminati, a few million dollars are nothing.

他们对付敌对者的首选方法就是收买他们。对像光明会这样富有的组织来说,几百万美元根本算不上什么。

09.Next they try threats. Danger to possessions, status or loved ones has dissuaded many a would-be foe of Illuminati schemes.

如果收买不了,他们会尝试威胁。让反对者的财产、地位或亲人面临危险。这一招已经阻止了许多光明会计划的潜在敌人。

10.And, of course, murder is an ancient political weapon. The Illuminati have been responsible for some of the most shocking assassinations of modern times.

当然,谋杀是一种古老的政治武器。光明会对现代一些最令人震惊的暗杀事件负有责任。

11.They also replace people with doubles. For many years they recruited look-alikes who would serve their ends. Now they are perfecting cloning technology that will let them replace anybody.

他们还使用替身来代替真身。多年来,他们招募长相相似的人来为他们服务。而现在他们正在完善克隆技术,让他们可以取代任何人。

12.Those who can’t be dealt with any other way are discredited or driven mad.

那些很难处理的人会被抹黑或被逼疯。

13.The Illuminati conspiracy is hundreds, if not thousands, of years old. Many of the most famous names of history have been Illuminated, or Illuminati agents. Indeed, all of history is nothing more than an outside view of the schemes and struggles of the Illuminati.

光明会的阴谋就算没有几千年,也有几百年了。历史上许多最著名的名字都与之有关,或者说是光明会的代理人。事实上,所有的历史都只不过是光明会的计划和斗争的一个外在表象。

14.And, of course, the Illuminati are constantly rewriting history to serve their own goals. For instance, modern schoolchildren are taught that there is no historical evidence of Jesus Christ, and they learn nothing about the Russo-German War or the state of Arcadia.

当然,光明会不断改写历史以实现自己的目标。例如,他们教导现在的孩子们,没有历史证据可以证明耶稣基督的存在;孩子们对苏德战争或者阿卡迪亚州也一无所知。

15.They control the news media, so you hear what they want you to about today’s news. Any event that doesn’t fit in with their program will be quickly hushed up.

他们控制着新闻媒体,所以你能看到的新闻都是他们希望你看到的。任何不符合他们计划的事件都会很快被掩盖。

16.In particular, they control television. They don’t permit intelligent shows to survive; they encourage mind candy that will keep people from thinking. The only reason good shows are permitted to appear at all is to convince intelligent people that nobody else likes such material, and that there must be something wrong with them.

特别是,他们控制着电视。他们不允许聪明的表演存在;他们鼓吹那些能让人们停止思考的“心灵糖果”。好节目被允许出现的唯一原因是为了说服聪明的人相信,根本没人会喜欢这样的节目,是你们自己出问题了。

17.The Illuminati manipulate the stock market and control currencies on an international level. Your paycheck is worth just what the Illuminati want it to be.

光明会操纵着国际股票市场并控制着货币。你的薪水光明会是想要的。

18.Likewise, the entire“energy crisis” is an Illuminati invention. There’s no shortage of energy, of a dozen different kinds, but plentiful free energy might threaten the Illuminated power base.

同样,“能源危机”也是光明会的阴谋。至少有十几种不同的能源可供使用,根本就不存在缺能源这一说,但充足的能源可能会威胁到光明会的权力根基。

19.The Illuminati are doing their best to hold back the space program, for the same reason. If mankind was spread out through the solar system, they’d be much harder to control.[Not all the Illuminati agree on this. Some of them lust after the mineral wealth of space, and some want(literally) new worlds to conquer.

出于同样的原因,光明会正在尽其所能阻止太空计划。如果人类散布在太阳系中,他们将更难控制。但并不是所有的光明会都同意这一点。他们中的一些人渴望得到太空里的矿产资源,而另一些人则想要征服新世界。

20.And some of them are in touch with aliens from outer space. Some of them ARE aliens. Why would“advanced beings” want to meddle with the affairs of Earthlings? Good question.

他们中的一些人与来自外太空的外星人有联系。另一些人则就是外星人。为什么“高级生命”要干涉地球人的事务?好问题。

21.Worse, some of them have actual magical powers and are in league with forces from... elsewhere. Great huge beings that are madness to look upon, or tiny, malicious things that glare and gibber from dark corners. They have pins and dolls; they know old names.

更糟糕的是,他们中的一些人拥有真正的魔法力量,并与来自……emmm……某个地方的力量相连接。那些看起来很疯狂的巨大生物,或者那些在黑暗角落里怒目而视、胡言乱语的小而恶毒的东西。他们有大头针和洋娃娃;他们知道古老的名字。

22.Other Illuminati have embraced technology. Their files of information are much more useful when backed by the power of the computer. They are also conditioning everyone to believe that computers are so complicated and dangerous that only the Experts should play with them. Next time you get an electric bill for$666,666.66, you know who’s behind it.

其他光明会已经接受了技术。在计算机的支持下,他们的信息文件要有用得多。他们让人们相信计算机是如此的复杂和危险,只有专家才能玩。下次当你收到一张6666666.66美元的电费账单时,你就知道谁是幕后黑手了。

23.And some of these technophiles have gone a step farther, creating actual machine intelligences. These sentient computers are now, themselves, a force amoung the ruling Illuminati.

其中一些技术爱好者甚至更进一步,创造出了真正的智能机器。现在,这些有知觉的电脑,它们本身,就是统治光明会的一股力量。

24.The Illuminati don’t like war; it’s expensive and wasteful. War only happens when two groups of Illuminati are very evenly matched and neither is willing to negotiate. But then they whip a few nations into a patriotic fervor and go at it.

光明会不喜欢战争;既昂贵又浪费。只有当两股光明会势均力敌,并且双方都不愿意谈判时,战争才会发生。但随后,他们会激起一些国家的爱国热情,并付诸行动。

25.They send secret messages through the newspapers and airwaves– in the classified ads, and even buried in news reports. They have other, even stranger forms of secret communications... all around you, all the time.

他们通过报纸和电波传递秘密信息——在分类广告中,甚至在新闻报道中。他们还有其他更奇怪的秘密通信方式……就在你身边,每时每刻。

26.They keep everyone– yes, everyone– under constant surveillance. Every time you fill out another questionnaire, you’re weaving another strand of the net that binds the world.

他们时刻监视着每一个人——是的,每一个人。你填写的每一份问卷,都在帮助编织链接另一个世界的网。

27.They are working to make the law as confusing as possible, so everything will be illegal or potentially illegal– then they have a hold on everybody and everyone will fear the laws.

他们正努力使法律尽可能混乱,所以一切都将是非法的或潜在的非法——然后他们控制了每个人,每个人都会害怕法律。

28.They encourage resistance to authority among young people and political dissidents, to distract government attention from the real enemy within.

他们鼓励年轻人和持不同政见者抵制权威,以分散政府对内部真正敌人的注意力。

29.But when they reach a satisfactory level of control, they turn their efforts toward extinguishing independence and encouraging mindless obedience to whatever orders come from the Illuminati or their servants.

但是当他们达到一个令人满意的控制水平时,他们就把努力转向熄灭独立和鼓励盲从来自光明会或他们的仆人的任何命令。

30.They commit random atrocities– poisoning food at grocery stores, murdering old blind ladies, sniping on the freeway– just to make people vaguely confused, frightened and paranoid.他们随意犯下各种暴行——在杂货店的食物里投毒,谋杀失明的老妇人,在高速公路上狙击——只是为了让人们变得困惑、恐惧和偏执。

31.They suppress inventions which might change the status quo. The100-mile-a-gallon carburator, the perfect contraceptive, and the cornucopia plant are all lying in Illuminati vaults, waiting for the day when it will suit the Secret Masters to release them. What happened to the inventors? Bought off, intimidated, or just vanished.

他们压制可能改变现状的发明。每加仑100英里的汽化器,完美的避孕用具,以及聚宝盆植物都躺在光明会的地下室里,等待着神秘主人觉得可以释放它们的那一天。那么那些发明家都怎么了?被收买,恐吓,或者干脆消失。

32.On the other hand, they also maintain secret laboratories where they develop new weapons and devices of all kind.

另一方面,他们也保留秘密实验室,在那里他们研发各种新武器和装置。

33.Their arcane investigations cause all sorts of mysteries. Ever wonder about the Loch Ness Monster? The“cattle mutilations?” The Oregon Crud.

他们的神秘调查引起了各种各样的谜团。有没有想过尼斯湖水怪?“牛残割”(70、80年代,美国一些州曾发生的神秘“屠牛事件”,母牛的眼睛、乳房、舌头被割走,原因至今无法解释)?俄勒冈州的脏东西(病毒袭击)。

34.And they require hundreds of human victims every year for their experiments. Ever wonder why there are so many Missing Persons reports, and why so few of those people are found.

他们每年需要数百人来做实验。有没有想过为什么会有这么多的失踪人口报告,为什么找到的人那么少。

35.They are constantly experimenting with new types of mind control. They put drugs in drinking water, flash subliminal messages during movies and TV shows, and play instructions that you can’t quite hear over supermarket loudspeakers. They experiment with microwaves and ultra-low-frequency devices, too.

他们不断尝试新的精神控制方式。他们在饮用水中投毒,在电影和电视节目中闪现潜意识信息,通过超市扩音器播放你听不到的指令。他们也用微波和超低频设备进行实验。

36.And every wire in your house is a potential pathway for Illuminati messages, attacks or controlling rays. Did you ever stop to think just how many wires lead to your house? And do you have any idea where they really come from

你房子里的每根电线都是光明会获取信息、发起攻击或控制的潜在途径。你有没有想过到底有多少条电线通到你家?你知道它们是从哪里来的吗

37.Naturally, they discourage investigation of the strange and unusual, because it might lead to them. But they encourage people to joke about the Illuminati.

自然地,他们不鼓励对奇怪和不寻常的事情进行调查,因为这可能会引向他们。但他们鼓励人们开光明会的玩笑。

38.They also publish supermarket tabloids, just to make sure that everybody thinks“Hitler’s Brain Is Alive!” and“Bigfoot Seen In Hawaii” are just jokes.

他们还出版“地摊文学”,只是为了确保每个人都认为“希特勒的大脑是活的!”和“在夏威夷看到的大脚怪”只是笑话。

39.And they encourage the craziest pseudo-science“researchers” they can find, because this tends to discredit legitimate investigators into the unusual.

他们鼓励他们所能找到的最疯狂的伪科学“研究人员”,因为这往往会使正统的研究人员对不寻常的事情失去信誉。

40.A popular belief is that the Illuminati want power for its own sake. This is true of some of them. But other Illuminated groups exist to support an ideology, to achieve a particular goal, or simply to oppose some other group of Illuminati.

一个流行的观点是,光明会想要权力本身。他们中的一些人确实这样想。但另一些光明会的存在是为了支持一种意识形态,为了实现特定的目标,或只是为了反对异己的其他光明会分支。

41.One of their chief preoccupations is life extension by any means possible. Nobody who has held ultimate power for fifty years is eager to let it go. Anything you can think of... yoga, cryonics, body-exchange, magic, cloning, goat(or other) glands, transfusions, computerized personality duplication... has been tried by the Illuminati at one time or another. And some of them work.

他们的首要任务之一是尽可能地延长寿命。拥有五十年终极权力的人都不愿放手。任何你能想到的…瑜伽、人体冷冻、身体交换、魔法、克隆、山羊(或其他)腺体、输血、电脑人格复制……光明会曾经都尝试过。而且,有些是有效的。

42.Furthermore, powerful Illuminati from past centuries lie waiting to be revived when science allows it. Mummies, pickled corpses, frozen bodies, conscious brains in jars... you would recognize the names if we could mention them.

此外,来自过去几个世纪的强大的光明会成员正在等待着在科学允许的时候复活。木乃伊、腌制的尸体、冰冻的尸体、罐子里的有意识的大脑……如果我们能提到他们,你就能认出他们的名字了。

43.You’re not cleared for this one.

你还没准备好知道这条信息。

44.They use disease as a weapon to discipline their own populations or destroy competing ones. Black Death in Europe, smallpox among the American Indians... The swine flu, a few years ago, was thwarted by opposing forces, or you probably wouldn’t be reading this.

他们利用疾病作为一种武器来约束自己的人口或摧毁竞争对手。欧洲的黑死病,美洲印第安人的天花……几年前的猪流感,是被敌对势力挫败的,否则你可能看不到这篇文章。

45.They have a variety of unhuman and inhuman servants. The dreaded Men in Black are perhaps their best-known agents. No one knows whether the MIBs are androids, golems, or something even worse. Perhaps they were once human...

他们有各种各样的非人类和失去人性的仆人。可怕的黑衣人(MIB)可能是他们最著名的代理人。没人知道MIB是机器人、假人还是更糟糕的东西。也许他们曾经是人类……

46.And they really are breeding a Master Race. The Nazis had no idea how they were being used, or why. And they’d be horrified at the Illuminati’s idea of perfection.

他们真的在培育一个优等种族。纳粹不知道他们是如何被利用的,也不知道为什么。他们对光明会的完美主义感到恐惧。

47.The Illuminati know weird sexual techniques undreamed of in the Kama Sutra. They also know why those techniques are used.

光明会知道《爱经》中做梦也想不到的奇怪的性技巧。他们也知道为什么要使用这些技巧。

48.The next time you spend too much money to buy something you didn’t want or need, and it breaks in a week, you can be sure you’ve just contributed to an Illuminati fund-raising project.

下次你花太多钱去买你不想要或不需要的东西时,它会在一周后中断,你可以确定你刚刚为光明会的筹款项目做了贡献。

49.They start chain letters. They also plant rumors that the Red Cross can buy an iron lung if you send them a million cigarette packages, and that dying children in England want ten million business cards. No one knows why they do this.

他们开始写连环信(收件人需转交他人的信)。他们还散布谣言说,如果你送他们一百万包香烟,红十字会就能买到一个铁肺(人工呼吸器的一种),或者告诉大家英国垂死的儿童想要一千万张名片。没有人知道他们为什么这样做。

50.Fnord

弗诺德(这个词最早是在混乱教的一部宗教经典《 Principia Discordia》中被创造出来的荒谬术语,后因在《光明会!三部曲》一书中被引用而被人熟知。”fnord”是一个感叹词,对未开化的人具有催眠的力量,小学的孩子被教导为不能有意识地看到这个词语。在他们的余生里,这个词每出现一次都会在潜意识里产生一种不安和困惑的感觉,妨碍他们对它出现的文本进行理性思考。这个词在新闻集团和黑客文化中被用来表示讽刺、幽默或超现实主义。)

看到这里,你还想问“光明会到底是什么组织”这个问题么?

我们都知道狭义上的光明会是于1776年在德国巴伐利亚成立的秘密组织,在有限的历史记录中,它仅存在了十来年,便因为宗教压迫及两个核心领导人内讧而消失了。其创始人亚当维索兹(Adam Weishaupt)则流亡至美国(当时美国处于独立战争期间)。但广义上的光明会则难以定义,它是无处不在的神秘力量,充斥在我们的生活中。历史上很多著名的事件背后都有光明会的影子。如果你看过丹·布朗的《天使与魔鬼》,你应该也发现另一种可能存在的情况:不少秘密社团或阴谋家,正在肆无忌惮地利用“光明会”做背锅侠。还有那些被夸大的非人类生物和来自外星的不明物种,以及闻所未闻地操控人类的方法……这一切看起来都那么荒诞甚至愚蠢,既然已经难以置信,就更不会有人真的去探究了。但,这一切会不会本身就是光明会的一个阴谋呢?结语:本期关于光明会的50件事情是为了帮助有兴趣的朋友了解更多信息,所有这些都是光明会卡牌的灵感来源,无论它是事实还是谎言,都在一定程度上让人开了眼界,颠覆了世界观。能够更多纬度地去看待这个世界,很有趣不是吗?在随后的文章里我会逐一为大家提供详尽的佐证。
