The Illuminati has played a central role in what was once termed the
plot theory of history but now is simply called conspiracy theory. The
difficulty--if not impossibility--in documenting actual causality
between incidents, trends, events, personages and groups has not
prevented an exponential growth in theories, speculations, opinions and
accusations. The alt.illuminati FAQ is intended to provide what
documented facts are available and provide an overview of the many
theories.
