Adam Weishaupt: A Human Devil

By Gerald B. Winrod

Adam Weishaupt: A Human Devil by Rev. Gerald B. Winrod traces the life and revolutionary activities of Adam Weishaupt, founder of the Illuminati, whom Winrod portrays as the central figure in a secret movement dedicated to the destruction of Christianity, government, private property, patriotism, family, and the established social order. Winrod examines the origins of Illuminism in occultism, Rosicrucianism, Freemasonry, and related secret traditions, describing Weishaupt's organization, its hierarchical degrees, methods of secrecy and infiltration, and its program for revolutionary transformation. He then follows the influence of Illuminism through the French Revolution, Jacobinism, European Freemasonry, and revolutionary movements in Russia, arguing that the principles established by Weishaupt continued into modern Communism. The book also examines the Jesuits, the French Revolution, Marxism, the Russian Revolution, and what Winrod describes as the Jewish influence behind the Illuminati and later revolutionary movements, concluding that modern Communism represents a continuation of the same anti-Christian revolutionary program. Winrod contrasts this movement with Christianity and the liberties of the American constitutional system, presenting the struggle as one between the forces of revolutionary atheism and the Christian foundations of civilization.
