I believe that the Illuminati has plagued and perversed the two religions, Judaism and Christianity. I have a little bit of information about Judaism, but more about Christianity fyi, though.
First about symbolism in Judaism. Just about every one knows about the Jew's symbol, the David's star. You may have also heard that the symbol was a Pagan symbol first, that being the Star Of Molech. This would prove that the six-sided star is a Pagan symbol. So, why did the Jews start to use this symbol? Why?
I have a friend who was a Reformed Jew. He says that they use this symbol as their main symbol...yet the Orthodox Jews use the Menorah as their main symbol. Why is that? Why do two offshoots of the same religion use different symbols?
My theory is that the Illuminati were able to gain control of Judaism in order to perverse the religion so that the followers of said religion would be praising false symbols, therefore practicing the religion wrong and not succeeding with being enlightened (thus would be the goal of the Illuminati).
This evidence is secure with the Orthodox Jews practicing unchanged, unaltered verses from the Talmud and from the Torah, which is not so for. Reformed Judaism. With changes being made to the Torah, the Torah could have been made to mislead and disinform people.
This next theory is just for Christianity. It is the conspiracy involving Orthodox churches in the Christian faith. Let it be known that I am part of a sect in Christianity called the Community Of Christ. We believe in the Bible, the writings in the Book Of Mormon, and the writings of Joseph Smith, the Doctrine of the Covenants. This pretty much classifies me as being part of an
Unorthodox religion.
Not only that, but I have seen great Evil in the Orthodox Churches. I once attended a Lutheran church service, and the pastor gave an explanation of one woman who did not behave properly, and he said that because of that, she went to Hell. I was in an outrage. The door to Heaven or lack thereof is not by what you do, it's by what you believe.

The Terra Papers, while interesting, are nothing more than a variation of Von Daniken's ancient astronaut theory. Now if the author of the Terra Papers can come up with an alien body...

The Immaculate Conception is rather new (19th Century) and Catholic. I have argued about Jesus having brothers and sisters with my family (who is very Catholic) and they still say there was only Jesus. (I don't even try to tell them Jesus was a regular man.) I was trying to point out there was no need for an Illuminati to change anything as the leaders of Christianity did much of the change themselves.

Sorry, it's taking a while. I haven't had much time lately. This is the first time I have been actually post on ATS for a while.

Von Daniken's first book came out in 1968. The Terra Papers were written in the 1970s. There are ancient astronaut ideas even before then, but Von Daniken sold millions of books, creating a huge market for the "ancient astronaut" theorists. I was surprised the Nova special debunking those theories came out in 1978. I had thought it was much later.
PS I got the link and am reading the Terra Papers. It is quite interesting, but I believe it is more fiction than anything else. Maybe the author was writing a novel to cash in on the craze?
