New England and the Bavarian Illuminati

illuminati eye
I recently came across a document written by Vernon Stauffer titled New England and the Bavarian Illuminati. I was suprised how unbiased this work was and it made me question whether the illuminati may have been so bad after all. They wanted to be distinct from the occultism of the rosicrucians, and free from the superstition of the freemasons. All the while, 18th and 19th centuries were undoubtedly changed forever by this mysterious cult. A few facts are that as a neophyte, a member only had contact with his superiors. After moving on to the role of superior, he would meet with others in round table discussions about problems faced and strategies for improving the society. At this level, the member was encouraged to join the freemasons and many references are made to becoming a scottish knight. Could this be the influence behind scottish rite masonry? I wonder.
Although the illuminati was supposedly disbanded, there were confirmed illuminated lodges throughout the European and American states. It seems their biggest sin was that they stood for rational thinking. In such an idiotic world, this can be a revolutionary idea.
