Many freemasonic symbols date back to ancient Egypt. This includes the eye in the triangle above a pyramid, referring to the god of light Horus.
The United States currency refers to it. An interesting read about this in Wikipedia's article on the all-seeing eye.
The Statue of Liberty in New York harbour was presented in 1884 as a gift from the French Grand Orient Temple Masons to the Masons of America in celebration of the centenary of the first Masonic Republic.
She is holding the Masonic "Torch of Enlightenment". Also referred to back in the 1700's by the Illuminati Masons as the "Flaming Torch of Reason". The Torch represents the "Sun" in the sky.
The Statue of Liberty's official title is, "Liberty Enlightening the World".
The cornerstone of the statue records how it was laid in a Masonic ceremony (see plaque photo above).
THE TORCH SYMBOL
Illuminati means to "bare light" one way to symbolize this is by carrying a torch. A torch sits on top of the Statue of Liberty, on top of JFK's grave, and on top of the tunnel where Princess Diana was killed.
Best selling author, Robert Bauval:
"The cornerstone for the Statue of Liberty was placed in a solemn ceremony in 1884 organised by the Masonic lodges of New York.
The Statue of Liberty, which was designed by the French sculptor Bartholdi and actually built by the French Engineer, Gustave Eiffel (both well-known Freemasons), was not originally a ‘Statue of Liberty’ at all, but first planned by Bartholdi for the opening of the Suez Canal in Egypt in 1867.
Bartholdi, like many French Freemasons of his time, was deeply steeped in ‘Egyptian’ rituals, and it has often been said that he conceived the original statue as an effigy of the goddess Isis, and only later converted it to a ‘Statue of Liberty’ for New York harbour when it was rejected for the Suez Canal."

Finally, you were watching a movie about the rise of the anti-christ and the end of the world. If I were to come to you, who have long established your non fact based views about the Freemasons and the Illuminati and ask you to make a similar movie, would you not overload it with similar nonsense? My point is only that it is entirely possible that you were seeing subliminal imagery, but it was NOT Illuminati or Freemason related. Anti-christ related? Possibly. NWO related? Conceivably, but only if you are under the same unsubstantiated notions that these symbols are somehow tied to those things and the Freemasons.

George Herbert Walker Bush.
George H.W. Bush has never been ... a ... satanist.
Remember, remember the fifth of November,
The gunpowder, treason, and plot,
I see of no reason why the gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot.

The main proponent of the New World Order not a freemason? That's a good one.
Both his father and son are members of the Rotary Club. Something tells me he' s affiliated too.
This man has killed so many people the epitaph 'episcopelian' sounds hilarious if it weren't so sad.
And by satanism I simply mean: the replacement of all mankind's ethical habits -- inspired by the main religions -- by a doctrine of elitarian self-righteousness instead. You shall threat the other as you would like to be treated becomes I'll bloody do what pleases me.
Freemasonry reflects that exactly. On every level of the human behaviour, a freemason feels unbound by any law or moral habit. Which means that if you feel the need to rape children, you will because you don't see the badness in it.
That's for the sexual consequences. Politically, freemasonry proposes a free society by ridding humanity from the historic shackles of its religions. Unfortunately, it puts an elitarian, hierarchical, undemocratic and unjust system in place instead. 'Freedom' will be more curtailed in a freemason world than in a christian world. In fact it already is.
On a social level, love and respect for each other will only be applied (hypocritically) in member's circles, and no longer onto the world. Now what kind of world is that if not an evil one?
P.S. You're going to list freemason altruistic projects as a rebuttal, I imagine. I'm not buying that. Freemason altruism is probably still stemming from selfish motives. Or it isn't freemason by definition.

Aleister Crowley 33°, wrote "Hymn to Lucifer."
"Lucifer, the Son of the Morning! Is it he who bears the Light, and with its splendors intolerable blinds feeble, sensual, or selfish Souls? Doubt it not!" - Albert Pike
But he might be related to one..
Pauline Pierce, a known floosy of her day, spent a some time with Alester Crowley. After which time she gave birth to her daughter Barbara. Barbara Pierce married George Bush Sr. and gave birth to George 'Dubya' Bush.
By the way, Pauline Pierce is a descendant of Thomas Percy who, along with Robert Catesby and Guy Fawks, tried to blow up King James I and Parlament.
Then in a strange historical twist...
President Franklin Pierce is a descendant of Thomas Percy who tried to blow up King James I. Franklin Pierce lost to James Buchanan who is a descendant of James I.

Besides, Crowley was neither a satanist nor a regular Mason. He instituted a new religion called Thelema which revived the worship of ancient Egyptian deities. He did not believe in either the Christian god nor their devil.
