1. The Masks of the ConspiratorsDid the Americans really land on the Moon? Who was really behind 9/11? Did Jesus start a family and what’s behind theories of attempted world domination by the Jews? We investigate some of the most famous conspiracy theories of modern times.15CC50minJan 4, 2013
2. The Code of the IlluminatiThe secret brotherhood of the Illuminati was only active for ten years. They dreamed of having members of their brotherhood occupy crucial positions of power, thereby creating a new, fairer state. Banned as early as 1785, rumours that ‘the enlightened ones’ still exist in secret cannot be dispelled.15CC50minJan 4, 2013
3. The Heirs of the Knights TemplarThe Freemasons are probably the secret brotherhood with the most members. Their fundamental ideals are, according to them, liberty, equality, fraternity, tolerance and humanity. However, others say that this secret society has very different goals, namely political power.15CC50minJan 4, 2013
