These days most people have heard of Microsoft Corporation,
and its founder Bill Gates. The majority of
Computers in use today use Microsoft system software, and those
that do not often run applications from
Microsoft. However, few people know the true story behind the
rise of Microsoft and even fewer suspect
the terrible cosmic secrets that are concealed beneath the facade
of a successfül software company.
In the Object Linking and Embedding 2.0 Programmer's Reference
there is a very curious term. On page 78, the second paragraph
starts with the sentence, ,,In the aggregation model, this internal
communication is achieved through coordination with a special
instance ofllinknown interface known as the controlling unknown
of the aggregate." The term ,,controlling unknown"
is a very interesting choice ofwords. lt is not the most intuitively
obvious term for what it is describing (a base dass used for
implementing an object-oriented data exchangelembedding system).
A term strikingly similar to ,,controlling unknown" was
the term ,,unknown superiors", used by many occult secret
societies. These included the Strict Observance Masonic lodge,
whose members were sometimes referred to as ,,illuminati",
and which had some connection with ~ dam Weishaupt's order. ,,Unknown
superiors" is a term that refers to non-corporeal or superhuman
ageneies in command of secret societies or mystery cults. Such
an agency is frequently known as the ,,inner head" of an
order of Organisation, as opposed to the outer head, who is human.
Organisations that claimed or were claimed to be commanded
by such ,,unknown superiors" indude the ()rdo Templi Orientis
ofAleister Crowley and the Knights Templar, whose Inner Head
was apparently a being named Baphomet.
Apart from the term ,,controlling unkiiown", another
hint at the secrets behind Microsoft is the fact that
Microsoft Windows has a umit offive window device contexts. Five
is a decidedly odd number for such
an application, being neither a power of two nor one less than
a power oftwo, but let us not forget Adam
Weishaupt's discovery of the Law ofFives in the Necronomicon*.
Few people for sure how many buildings there are in the Microsoft
campus in Redmond, WA. No maps of the entire facility are known
to exist. Some Microsoft employees put the estimate at six or
three. An artide in an Australian newspaper has claimed that
there are 22 buildings. That is partly true; however, there is
another building, hidden from the public and even from most Microsoft
employees. The twenty-third building, or Building 7, is pentagonal
in shape; its exact location is known oniy to five
peope (of whom Bill Gates may be one), however it is believed
that the building is accessible from elsewhere in the Microsoft
campus by a secret passage.
What is in the five sided building is not known. However,
it is believed that the contents of Building 7 are of a supernatural
nature. Apart from the Pentagon, there was a similar five-sided
building in Nazi Germany. This has been carelully kept hidden
from the public. One hypothesis is that Building 7 is inhabited
by, or used to communicate with, the Inner Head, or ,,controlling
unknown". The identity of the Outer Head is unknown. Bill
Gates may be the Outer Head, a high initiate of the conspiracy
or just a figurehead whose purpose it is to divert attention.
To fiilly understand this history, or whatever of it may be
understood by human minds, one must have some knowledge of the
history and origins of the Illuminati. Little is known about
the Illuminati, but what is known is that the Illuminati can
be definitely traced back to 1776.
On Walpurgis night 1776, five men met in a cavern deep beneath
Ingolstadt, Bavaria. There they invoked some sort of supernatural
beings and made contact with the IJnllnown Superiors. The following
day, one of these five men proclaimed the foundation of the Ancient
Illuminated Seers ofBavaria, using the name ,,Adam Weishaupt",
which means ,,the first man to know the Superiors".
Although the Illuminati were officially disbanded in 1785,
they did not disappear; throughout the past 200 years, they have
been observing the profane world carefiilly, and occasionally
intervening (as they did in Sarajevo in 1914, St. Petersburg
in 1917, Manhattan in 1929 (to divert attention from a rather
unpleasant affair off the coast of New England) and Dallas in
1963 to name a few cases. Their contacts with the Unllnown Superiors
continued in specially constructed buildings, originally in Germany
but later in Washington. During the 1920s and 1930s there occurred
a potential problem; a young writer named Roward Phillips Lovecraft
published many stories which contained allegories to Illuminated
history (for example, Joseph Curwen s invocation of ,,Yogge-Sothothe"
in an underground complex in the 1 8th century). lt is believed
that Lovecraft's father was a Grand Orient Freemason. The Illuminati,
however, persuaded Lovecraft to jom their cause and faked his
death in 1937 (Have you ever wondered why his grave is not marked?>
Another incident occurred on October 21, 1967, when occultists
affempted to ,,raise" the Pentagon; they were given permission
to approach it but prevented from completely encircling lt. However,
in 1975, a crisis developed that threatened the very foundation
of the Illuminati.
A book, daiming to be a fantasy novel, appeared. This book
was mostly fiction; however, it hinted at the secrets of the
Illuminati (even going as far as using Loveeraft's term ,,Yog-Sothoth"
for the Unllnown Superior). To this day it is not known whether
the authors were renegade Illuminati or whether the information
was acquired from informers within the Organisation. The book
was called Illuminatus!
Immediately, the Illuminati convened an emergency meeting
in Cesme, Turkey. There they discussed a contingency plan to
restructure the Organisation and to move the Pentade oflnvocation
to a new location. They decided on setting up a small computer
company in one of the smaller cities of the United States as
a front. That year, Microsoft Corporation was founded.
But why did the Illuminati select a software company and not,
say, a company that manages investments or makes kitehen appliances?
The answer lies in symbolism (Perhaps because oftheir invlovement
in mystick arts such as the Cabala, the Illuminati have always
had an affinity for symbolism). There is a recurring legend about
a device in the form of a human head which could answer yes/no
questions (some link this device to the Knights Templar and their
god Baphomet; others elaim that Pope Sylvester, who lived in
the tenth century, brought such an object back from India, where
he met the ,,Nine Unknown Men"). This device is extremely
suggestive of a computer of some sort, and if it did exist in
anything more than hermetic allegory, it could not have been
manufactured by any human civilisation of the time whose existence
is known. Hence, the Illuminati decided to use a computer company
as a front.
lt has been already speculated that the name of the founder,
Bill Gates, is a code much as ,,Adam Weishaupt" was a code.
Apart from being the name of a magician in Meister Crowley's
novel, ,,Moonchild", Gates is a reference to the Unknown
Superior and the gateway between ordinary reality and the Invisible
World; Lovecraft himseif referred to Yog-Sothoth as ,,the Gateless
Gate". By the same token, IBM can be said to stand not for
,,International Business Machines" but rather for ,,Iacobus
Burgundus Molensis", or Jacques de Molay, the last overt
Grand Master of tbe Knights Templar, whose name was borrowed
by the Bavarian illuminati for one oftheir ciphers. One must
also not forget that a Microsoft network administration tool
currently under development is named Hermes, after the god of
alchemy, and that a line in Umberto Eco's novel _Foucault's Pendulum_
reads, quite clearly, ,,Microsoft-Hermes".
UN-authorised CAPITALISATION and DISSOCIATION ofthis IMPORTANT
INFORMATION is ENCOURAGED.
* Some sources daim that the copy of the Necronomicon which
Adam Weishaupt owned was the von Junzt German translation; this,
however, is unlikely, as von Junzt lived in the nineteenth century.
The Necronomicon involved was probably either Olaus Wormius'
Latin edition or the original Arabic, as the details of the illustrations
would attest. |
