Leo Taxil is the pen name of Masonic "Brother" Gabriel
Jogand, born 23 March 1853 in Marseilles France. Mr.
Jogand (Taxil) was a Freemason in the Grand Orient
of France whose lodge in Paris had the characteristically
masonic-oxymoronic name of 'The Temple of Friends of
French Honor'. Jogand earned his living as a prolific and notorious
anti-clerical propagandist and pornographer. A truely
qualified Grand Orient Freemason all in all. In October 1881 Jogand
received the Black Ball in a Masonic Trial after the Vatican complained to
the Grand Orient about his latest "work": The Secret
Love Affairs of Pope Pius IX. Seeking revenge
against Masonry and the Vatican he then wrote a book
and delivered lectures about the Palladium Rite of Freemasonry
which had indeed existed in Charleston South Carolina. Jogand
claimed Palladianism had been revived and now included
many Clerics and Politicians who were engaged in Demon conjuration.
(Left:) The Infamous French Freemason, Anti-Catholic, Anti-Cleric,
and Pornographer Gabriel Jogand, who wrote under the pseudoname of Leo Taxil.
The Secret
Love Affairs of Pope Pius IX was a pornographic work of fiction,
farce, and libel against
Christianity and Roman Catholicism described
in disgusting detail the concocted sexual relations
between Pope Piux IX and a young girl. It took the
visit to the Grand Orient by Count Masa, Pope IX's nephew
to get the Grand Orient to take any action against their
"Brother". Jogand had been a long time anti-clerical pornographer
but his Masonic Lodge didn't seem to mind until the
Papal delegation came knocking at their door personally!
Freemasonry takes good men and makes them "better"...
Freemason Taxil's writings were part of an anti-clerical
genre of writings which flourished under the Revolution(which
was lead and formented by freemasons) with books such as
The Sacred Cannibals, The Priest's Testicles, Letter from
the Devil to the Pope concerning the Suppression of Menstruation
in Girl's Communities, Extraordinary Correspondence of the
Ecclesiastical F.ckers, The Whores of the Third Estate, and
The Solicitors of the Fourth.
Some of Mason Jogand's other anti-clerical "works" included
It's We Who whip those dirty Scamps, Shooting the Crows,
The Sacred Blunders, Critical Review of Superstition, The Scoffer, His Holiness the Police ,
The Crimes of the Inquisition, Down with the Clergy,
and The Amusing Bible.
He also founded the magazine The Anti-Clerical and
in 1881 The Anti-Clerical League.
But this Freemason was an "anti-mason" right?
Undoubtably nothing would have happened to Taxil's
Masonic status if the Vatican hadn't personally
taken action because the Grand Orient was well
aware of Jogand's anti-christian libel writings
in his contributions to a wide variety of
publications which they did absolutely nothing
about.
Taxil's Palladian book and lecture
series caused quite a stir due to the anti-clerical
libel it described of strange goings on by
Priests and Catholic Politicians. After Taxil had
milked it for all it is worth it is said he
confessed to making the entire thing up.
As far as Brother Jogand's claims about
Palladianism it caused as much if not more
damage to the Roman Catholic Church than
it did to Freemasonry, so the whole stunt
could have simply been another Anti-Catholic
dirty trick, which the French Grand Orient was
famous for.
In any case this incident has
nothing whatsoever to do with any quotations you
see taken from published Masonic books by Masons
who have written about the subject of Lucifer,
the Devil, and God.
So why everytime one of these quotations
from a Masonic Author about Lucifer is given do they try
and relate it to the Anti-Clerical Mason Taxil's tale
about Palladianism? The answer is they are skilled
and prolific liars. They are taught whenever anyone
brings up some masonic writing that is related to
Lucifer they are to immediately "divert the discourse"
to this "Taxil Hoax".
The "Taxil Hoax" was about the alledged goings on
and membership in by senior Politicians and some
Clerics inside some super secret "Palladium Rite"
and NOT about what Masonic Authors like Pike,
Hall, et all wrote about the nature of Heaven
and Hell and who occupied same.
Here is how the Grand Orient of France reacted to the
whole matter, it is quite "illuminating" toward their
entire mindset: "From then on the date of 19 April 1897 became
an historic one. At the Grand Orient of France the reaction
was immediate. Up to then it had maintained a scornful silence.
It is true that the reports of the annual General Assemblies
of 1896 and 1897 show that they had more important things to
worry about, such as destroying the chapel built in the memory
of Louis XVI or deciding to impose sanctions on school teachers
who sang in church choirs. When Taxil's sensational speech
there was a definite hilarious reaction in all French lodges.
The report of the Grand Orient for 1897-8 relates, for example,
that on the occasion of the annual banquet of The True Brethren
Lodge at Bergerac on 6 June 1897, Frederic Desmons (who in
1877 had succeeded in having deleted from the Constitutions
the invocation to the Great Architect of the Universe) introduced
a speaker who was to become famous. This was Emile Combes, ex-Minister
of Education. At this banquet Brother Combes in a very humourous
speech mentioned a few little known details about the gigantic
hoax of Leo Taxil which caused laughter from the brethern".
It was a set-up.
Furthermore, the Anti-Clerical Freemason Jogand's "Taxil
Hoax" has absolutely nothing to do with ANY of the published writings
of Pike about Lucifer, God, Satan, "Michel", Dualism et all.
The Masons are intentionally trying to confuse the two issues
by use of clever disinformation methods and the passage of time.
Jogand was a Freemason first,
an anti-clerical second, and a pornographer third. Indeed
one could say Brother Jogand was his own little Masonic Trinity...
The only Taxil Hoax is the one Freemasonry
is playing on anyone who brings up what High Level
Masons have written about God, Satan and Lucifer.
It is all just another one of the masonic sect's
'divert the discourse' disinformation strawman illusions designed to 'hoodwink'
the 'profane'(as they derisively refer to all non-masons).
Another gambit they will try and employ is by claiming that
the material was written before the individual Mason became 'high level'.
As this would somehow disprove anything. On the contrary.
What it proves is that despite the declaration and promotion
by some of these pre-eminent masonic authors before they
became 'high level' of their belief in Lucifer being God,
they still were awarded the highest degree of Freemasonry!
Of course many of them made their Lucifer statements after
they became 'high level'...
You'll never see that tidbit mentioned or commented on
in these shallow and parrotted "Is it True What they Say
About Freemasonry?" sites. In fact you also won't see Brother
Jogand(Taxil) being identified as a Freemason either. A
rather important fact to leave out by these
"comprehensive" and "scholarly" masonic "research" sites wouldn't you
say?
Of course there is much more to proving the Luciferian
nature of Freemasonry than showing that all of the
most well known Masonic Authors wrote praisingly about
Lucifer, as the essence of the teachings of Freemasonry
is contained inside Allegorical Symbols.
It is the combination of the quotations from the
published writings of noted Masonic Authors, the
interpretations of the Symbols of Freemasonry, and
the other occult involvements and writings of so
many prominent High Level Freemasons which conclusively
prove that the Luciferian Nature and Connections of
Freemasonry is not some hoax being perpetrated by 'anti's'.
A Sampling of some of writings about Lucifer by High Level Masons
(Note: In a sign of obvious apoplectic
desperation one Masonic Disinformation site which
calls itself the Grand Lodge of BC is now
attacking our site by saying we are "perpetuating
lies" about Freemasonry by providing quotations
about Satan and Lucifer by High Level Masons.
Curiously enough they completely contradict and demolish
their own thesis by inserting the proviso "Lucifer is
a name for God, Satan doesn't really exist and besides even
if he did 'he is really just doing God's work'. Get a clue boys, Lucifer
is not God, the Great White Lodge of Sirius is not heaven,
and Jesus was not a Freemason! Freemasonry takes
weird men and makes them weirder...)
'Brother' Eliphas Levi
The Mysteries of Magic
"What is more absurd and more
impious than to attribute the name of Lucifer to the devil, that is, to
personified evil. The intellectual Lucifer is the spirit of intelligence and
love; it is the paraclete, it is the Holy Spirit, while the physical Lucifer
is the great agent of universal magnetism." page 428
Masonic Diversion: 'But Levi wasn't a Mason!'
Fact: Eliphas Levi was a Freemason.
He was initiated at the Lodge Rose du Parfait Silence of the Grand Orient of France on 14 March,
1861 in Paris. M. Caudet who was the Venerable(Worshipful Master) at Levi's Masonic
initiation is quoted in the Masonic Work 'Eliphas Levi, written by Paul Chacornac
thusly:
"In his reception speech, Eliphas Levi, to the great astonishment of his auditors,
little inclined to paradoxes, made the following statement: 'I come to bring you
your lost traditions, the exact knowledge of your signs and emblems, and in
consequence to show you the aim for the attainment of which your association has
been constituted.' He then tried to demonstrate to his coreligionists that Masonic
Symbolism is borrowed from the Cabala. It was time wasted. No one believed
him."
Fact: Pike provided the first English language
translations of Levi's works, for inclusion in Degree Lectures for the
Scottish Rite of Freemasonry in 'Morals and Dogma', 'Legendas', 'Sepher Ha Debarim',
and 'The Book of the Words'.
Fact: When Pike's library was turned over
to the Supreme Council most of Levi's writings were found to
be part of it.
Fact: Given Pike's practical worship of Levi's
writings, their place of promincence in Pikes own writings which
are the primary books offered for sale today by the Scottish Rite Supreme
Temple, the placing of Freemason Levi in the Masonic Luciferography is well earned.
We say let Brother Levi be brought to light...

the Rosicricians at San Jose. He was honoured by The Scottish Rite Journal, who called him
'The Illustrious Manly P. Hall' in Sept, 1990, and further called him 'Masonry's Greatest

"If the buckler of Satan did not stay the flight of Michael's
lance, the power of the Archangel would be lost in the void,
or would necessarily display and manifest itself by an
infinite destruction, directed from above to below.
"And if the foot of Michael did not arrest Satan in his
ascent, Satan would go to dethrone God, or to lose himself
in the abysses of height.
"Satan is then necessary to Michael, as the pedestal to

"In analogical and universal dynamics we rest only on that
which resists.
"Wherefore, as we have said before, the Universe is

This is the equilibrium of the mountain of gold, which
the Gods on one side, and the Demons on the other, hold

Instructions to World Supreme Councils
Aug. 14, 1889
The following quotation is taken from Edith Starr
Miller's ('Lady Queensborough') Occult Theocracy
(Published originally in 1933 e.v., later published by
the Christian Book Club of America.), pp. 220 - 221.
The theological dogma of Albert Pike is explained
in the 'Instructions' issued by him, on July 14, 1889,
to the 23 Supreme Councils of the world and have been
recorded by A. C. De La Rive in La Femme et l'Enfant
dans la Franc-Maconnerie Universelle (page 588).
You
will often see Freemasonry try and associate the
well known French occult author Abbe Clarin de la Rive
with Taxil. This is a bare faced lie, de la Rive had absolutely
nothing to do with him or anything that this Mason was
alledged to have written or said. NOWHERE in ANY of
Freemason Taxil's writings does the following quotation
appear, in whole OR part. If it did believe us the
Freemasons would have the Taxil writing which included
it plastered from one end of the Net to the other.
We challenge the Freemasons to produce ANY document written
by the anti-clerical Freemason Gabriel Jogand(Leo Taxil) that includes the
following quotation!
It's a wonder they don't try and pin what Albert Pike wrote
in Morals and Dogma on Taxil. Perhaps that is next!
'That which we must say to the crowd is -- We worship a
God, but it is the God that one adores without superstition.
'To you, Sovereign Grand Inspectors General, we say this,
that you may repeat it to the Brethren of the 32nd, 31st
and 30th degrees -- The Masonic religion should be, by
all of us initiates of the high degrees, maintained in
the of purity of the Luciferian doctrine.
'If Lucifer were not God, would Adonay whose deeds prove
his cruelty, perfidy, and hatred of man, barbarism and
repulsion for science, would Adonay and his priests,
calumniate him?
'Yes, Lucifer is God, and unfortunately Adonay is
also God. For the eternal law is that there is no
light without shade, no beauty without ugliness, no
white without black, for the absolute can only exist
as two Gods: darkness being necessary to light to serve
as its foil as the pedestal is necessary to the statue,
and the brake to the locomotive.
'In analogical and universal dynamics one can only
lean on that which will resist. Thus the universe is
balanced by two forces which maintain its equilibrium:
the force of attraction and that of repulsion.
These two forces exist in physics, philosophy
and religion. And the scientific reality of the
divine dualism is demonstrated by the phenomena of
polarity and by the universal law of sympathies and
antipathies. That is why the intelligent disciples
of Zoroaster, as well as, after them, the Gnostics,
the Manicheans and the Templars have admitted, as the
only logical metaphysical conception, the system of the
two divine principles fighting eternally, and one cannot
believe the one inferior in power to the other.
'Thus, the doctrine of Satanism is a heresy; and the
true and pure philosophic religion is the belief in
Lucifer, the equal of Adonay; but Lucifer, God of
Light and God of Good, is struggling for humanity
against Adonay, the God of Darkness and Evil.'"
Incidently the above doctrinal description of Luciferianism is identical
to that currently being taught in the open by many New Age, Rosicrucian,
Pagan, and Theosophic occult groups who freely admit that many of their members
are also members of 'regular' Masonic Lodges.

"We shall unleash the Nihilists and Atheists,
and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm which in all its
horror will show clearly to the nations the effects of absolute
atheism, origin of savagery and of the most bloody turmoil. Then
everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the
world minority of revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers
of civilization, and the multitude, disillusioned with Christianity,
whose deistic spirits will be from that moment without compass,
anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration,
will receive the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally out in the
public view, a manifestation which will result from the general reactionary
movement which will follow the destruction of Christianity and atheism,
both conquered and exterminated at the same time."

Lucifer and Satan
G.L. of B.C. official internet site
"Lucifer is the term originally used by the Romans to refer to the planet Venus
when that planet was west of the sun and hence rose before the sun in the
morning, thereby being the morning star."
Fact: Lucifer is Latin. Did you expect that the
Babalonians and Egyptians 3,000 years earlier to have spoken in an
Italian dialect? Your "orginally" arguement is worthless, pointless,
and a complete canard. The ancients used their own tongue to describe
a title of "light bearer" which they attributed to the "Goddess".
The planetary symbol for the "Goddess" is 'Venus', her astrological
sign is 'Virgo', and her Tarot is 'The Empress'. But WHO and WHAT
is the "Goddess"? THAT is the question you continue to avoid answering.
"The same planet was called Hesperus, Cesperugo, Vesper, Noctifer, or Nocturnus,
when it appeared in the heavens after sunset. Lucifer as a personification
is called a son of Astraeus and Aurora or Eos, of Cephalus and Aurora, or of
Atlas. He is called the father of Ceyx, Daedalion, and of the Hesperides.
Lucifer is also a surname of several goddesses of light, as Artemis, Aurora,
and Hecate.
Fact: You left out her more controversial names - Astarte, Ashtoreth, Lilith,
Isis, Cemeramis, Mari, and Ishtar. But are they good or evil? You Occultists
NEVER answer that. Here is a clue boys since you appear to be so completely
clueless. Astarte/Ashtaroth/Lilith/Ishtar, which are the names for the
same entity known commonly in all the various tongues as the "light bearer"
or "lucifer" were all worshipped by performing human sacrifices with fire,
normally the babies of prominent families. This is a fact proven by tenured
Doctors of Archeology, History and Theology. Why don't you Masonic
"Historians" try and use the published research of Academics instead
of regurgitating the hackneyed, mystical baloney of your supposedly
"illuminated" "Masters"? Just because some entity says they stand for
light and liberty doesn't mean they do. It is their deeds which you have
to judge them by. Any "God" or "Goddess" which demands lighting on fire
or roasting live babies for it to intervene is pure evil. Do you remember
that little bit about Moses throwing down the ten commandments after coming
back down the mountain and finding his flock and erected a bull and where
worshiping it? Well one of the symbols for this "goddess" is a bull. This
is the "beautiful winged virgin crying" you "Adepts" have at the center of
your "teachings". This is the Masonic 'Goddess of Light'.
The word "Satan" is from a
Hebrew word, "Saithan", meaning adversary or enemy; in original Jewish
usage (see the book of Job), Satan is the adversary, not of God, but
of mankind; i.e., the angel charged by God with the task of proving
that mankind is an unworthy creation. The archangel Michael is supposed
to be mankind's defender in this heavenly trial. Thus Satan is not in
opposition to God but in fact doing His will.
Fact: The word Satan comes not from Hebrew but from Aramaic - Satana. Go to the
back of the coven, er class.
"Satan is not the adversary of God, Satan is doing God's
will".

what is it 'G.L. of B.C.', is Satan an adversary of God or not? Why did you have this

statement of yours?]
Fact: So sayeth the Grand Lodge of British Columbia. Obviously this
is another clever forgery by that arch-demon Mason, er, 'Anti' Leo Taxil.
But how did he get the password for their i.s.p.? Egregore 'Anti's' are

Lucifer, the Widows Son
THE MASONIC LEGEND has points of variance from as well as agreement with the
Bible story. It states that Jehovah created EVE, that the Lucifer Spirit SAMAEL
united with her but that he was ousted by Jehovah and forced to leave her before
the birth of her son Cain, who was thus THE SON OF A WIDOW. Then Jehovah created
ADAM, to be the husband of Eve, and from their union Abel was born. Thus from
the beginning there have been two kinds of people in the world. One begotten by
the Lucifer Spirit Samael and partaking of a semi-divine nature imbued with the
dynamic martial energy inherited from this divine ancestry, is aggressive,
progressive, and possessed of great initiative, but impatient of restraint or
authority whether human or divine. This class is loath to take things on faith
and prone to prove all things by the light of reason. These people BELIEVE IN
WORKS rather than faith, and by their dauntless courage and inexhaustible energy
they have transformed the trackless wilderness of the world to a garden full of
life and beauty, so lovely in fact that THE SONS OF CAIN have forgotten the
garden of God, the Kingdom of Heaven, whence they were expelled by the decree of
the lunar God Jehovah. Against Him they are in constant rebellion because He has
tied them by THE UMBILICAL "CABLE TOW." They have lost their spiritual sight and
are imprisoned in the forehead of the body where it is said Cain was marked;
they must wander as prodigal sons in the comparative darkness of the material
world, oblivious to their high and noble estate until they find the door of the
temple, and ask and receive LIGHT; then as "PHREE MESSEN" or children of light
they are instructed in methods of building a new temple without sound of hammer,
and when the spirit realizes that it is far from its heavenly home, a prodigal,
feeding upon the unsatisfactory husks of the material world, that apart from the
Father it is "POOR, NAKED AND BLIND," when it knocks at the door of a mystic
temple like that of the Rosicrucians and asks for light, when it receives the
desired instruction after due qualification by building and ethereal soul-body,
a temple or house eternal in the heavens, not made with hands, and without sound
of hammer, when its nakedness is clothed with that house (see Cor. 4.5,) then
the neophyte receives "THE WORD," the open sesame to the inner worlds and learns
to travel in foreign parts in the invisible worlds. There he takes soul-flights
into heavenly regions and qualifies for higher degrees under more direct instruction
from THE GRAND ARCHITECT OF THE UNIVERSE, who fashioned both heaven and earth.
Such is the temperament of THE WIDOW'S SONS inherited from their divine
progenitor Samael and given by him to their ancestor Cain. Their past history is a
struggle with adverse conditions, their achievement is victory wrested from all
opposing forces by indomitable courage and persistent effort, unchecked by temporary
defeat.

Hymn to Lucifer
Ware, nor of good nor ill, what aim hath act?
Without its climax, death, what savour hath
Life? an impeccable machine, exact
He paces an inane and pointless path
To glut brute appetites, his sole content
How tedious were he fit to comprehend
Himself! More, this our noble element
Of fire in nature, love in spirit, unkenned
Life hath no spring, no axle, and no end.
His body a blood-ruby radiant
With noble passion, sun-souled Lucifer
Swept through the dawn colossal, swift aslant
On Eden's imbecile perimeter.
He blessed nonentity with every curse
And spiced with sorrow the dull soul of sense,
Breath life into the sterile universe,
With Love and Knowledge drove out innocence
The Key of Joy is disobedience.

Summary
The quotations we provide for Pike three of which he wrote himself and
are not contested by Masonry in any way(the 1st, 3rd, and 4th) and the
quotations we provide from other Masons entirely agree with each other in the
essence and substance of what Pike and each other is saying about Lucifer,
Samael, Satan, and Jehova. There are many other writings by prominent
Masons and occults bodies that restate this Luciferian belief system
which you will discover as you research this subject.
Works vs Faith,
Cain vs Abel, Samael-Lucifer vs Jehova-God, Freemasonry vs the Universal Church.
The Son's of Cain, descended from the Father of Lies, who is the murderer from
the beginning say they are the bringers of light.
The Son's of Seth, descended from the Father of Truth, know truth will conquor all.
With Freemasonry the Devil is in the details...
"Whatever bigotry is in evidence in the United States is exhibited
solely by the Roman Catholic hierarchy; that the Canon Law of the Roman Church
and the directives of the Pope validate the fears of the people that the dual
allegiance of American Catholics is a present danger to our free institutions,
and lastly that the people in passing upon the qualifications of a Catholic
candidate for the Presidency will be guided by their knowledge of history and
their great store of plain old-fashioned common horse sense, and their innate
caution not to gamble when their Liberties and National Security are at state.
Among American citizens there should be no question or suspicion
of allegiance to any foreign power, but in the case of the Roman Catholic
citizen, his church is the guardian of his conscience and asserts that he must
obey its laws and decrees even if they are in conflict with the Constitution
and laws of the United States."
