ANY one who studies carefully the phenomena of modern, and especially of more recent times,
and endeavours to discover the hidden spring,
which directs the sequence of events,
will always find his researches,
lead him back to one and the same central motive power,
producing the state of mind,
through which the evil spirit of the age,
contrives to distort truth, history, and justice.
The radical perversion
of men's minds going on around us,
is indeed terribly systematic.
Comparing the onward progress
of the social, political, and religious world
to that of a river, we shall find,
that the poison, which taints the water,
comes in each case from the same source.
There are, it is true, some tributary rivulets,
which add their quota of infection to the main stream,
but these are of secondary importance.
Human errors and passions,
organised as they are
by the secret Society of Freemasonry,
constitute the chief power of this evil.
The Christian world has for many years past,
lulled itself to sleep in the pleasing thought,
that this sinister conspiracy
is, after all, not so very formidable,
and is gradually becoming a mere matter of ridicule.
A great mistake has been made on this subject.
Even before the outbreak of the first French Revolution,
Freemasonry had not so vast a power,
so much internal unity,
so firm a footing in influential circles,
so world-wide a command of the press,
as it has in our own day.
It is high time to awake from sleep,
and carefully to reconnoitre the forces of the enemy.
Barruel's book on the Jacobin Masons

We will conclude, in the words of Barruel,
(“Mémoires pour servir à l’Histoire du Jacobinisme,”
vol. i. p. 20. Hamburg, 1803.):
“To whatever creed, to whatever government,
to whatever class of society you belong,
as soon as Jacobinism gains the ascendant,
and the plans and sworn designs
of the Secret Society come into operation,
there is an end to your religion, your clergy,
your government, and your laws, your property and your authority.
All your possessions, your lands and houses,
your very families and fire sides,
ALL THESE from that day forth
YOU CAN NO LONGER CALL YOUR OWN.”
January 4, 1803.
P.S. This is exactly what happens in Greece, in the year 2017.
