The Priory of Sion
Exposed in the early 1980s by writers Michael Baigent, Richard Leigh and
Henry Lincoln in their best-selling 
Holy Blood Holy Grail
, the Priory of Sion
fulfills the ultimate archetype of a secret society: a hereditary, and generational
group of French monied elite who claim a lineage directly back to the Knights 
Templar guarding a central and highly damaging secret. A secret so damning, it 
could bring down the foundations of Christianity itself. Namely, the Priory of
Sion holds that Jesus did not die on the cross, but survived; and furthermore,
established a bloodline with the otherwise vilified Mary Magdalen that formed
both the Merovingian dynasty, and through successive generations, the Templars
themselves. They purport that this bloodline is the true “secret” behind the 
Templar persecution, and that they are sworn to preserve this secret bloodline.
While very little historical or scholarly data has been published on the
Priory of Sion (critics have accused the group of establishing a complex hoax,) 
there has been a slew of mysterious deaths and kidnappings related to allegedly

prominent members and Grandmasters of the Priory that beg a closer 
examination. If it is an elaborate hoax, why would members go to such lengths 
to both conceal and perpetuate its myths? Perhaps not surprisingly, the Priory’s 
membership roster also includes a number of figures alleged to also be 
functioning within the structure of the dreaded Illuminati. Certainly, the wealth 
accumulated by the Priory is enough to make even the most casual observer 
view their activities with suspicion.
New Order of Templars
Formed by defrocked Cistercian monk and homosexual Jorg Lanz von
Liebenfels in Austria in 1905, the Ordo Novi Templi, or New Order of Templars
was a bizarre concoction of Germanic neopaganism, quack science, virulent
racism, creative Biblical interpretations and supposedly divine revelations
dedicated to “
further the racial self-confidence by doing 
pedigree
and racial
research, 
beauty contests
and the founding of 
racist
future sites in
underdeveloped parts of the 
Earth
.” To this end, Liebenfels regularly published
a magazine entitled 
Ostara 
(named for the pre-Christian holy day of the vernal
equinox), which found its strongest support among brooding pseudo-intellectuals
of racist and anti-semitic circles; including a young and impressionable Adolf 
Hitler. In it, Liebenfels regularly upheld the superiority of the “Aryan” race, and
made military and religious vows to safeguard the sanctity of the race by
sterilizing and eradicating the presence of “lower” and “inferior” races.
What would seem like absurd jabberwocky of the most inane caliber by any
sensible human was obviously taken quite seriously by the Third Reich. And it is
safe to say that by “just following orders,” the Templar concepts of sacred duty
and unswerving devotion to an ideal found a tragic and convoluted conclusion in
the gas chambers of Dachau and Auschwitz.
