Alright, just read it already, you won't be sorry. Oh, and the sequel/whatever, the Schrodinger's Cat Trilogy (just possibly even better).</STRONG>
I bought the Shrodinger's cat trilogy thinking it was something completely different than what it turned out to be. :eek:
still a masterful, messed up book and now I am convinced I need to go back and read illuminatus

You should read Cosmic Trigger also. A pretty good one. Contrary to what most people think, RAW actually does believe that the Illuminati is a real group, he simply sees their control in a different light and examines more the metaphysical aspect of secret societies. You have some hints of it in Deus Ex, where Stanton Dowd explains that meditation is an important aspect of their quest for power. Spector did his homework for sure...

Illuminati are satanists.
So they are interested in make some serious damage to the humanity, yes they are the bad guys, if you choose the illuminati ending (well i played them all) like the most probable think again, this guys want us to go to hell. Well better they go to hell...

Illuminati are only satanists if you use the proper definition of satanism. Hint: it has nothing to do with the Christian boogieman.
