The Napoleon thing could be it's own miniseries. It was his first campaign, and he brought hundreds of scholars from France to war with him so that they could make drawings and take measurements and recover artifacts from Egypt. He defeated the Ottomans, but then his biggest gunship accidentally exploded during a naval battle with the English, causing the largest man made explosion until Hiroshima, and the rosetta stone and all that good stuff ended up in the British Museum instead of the Louvre.

So the templars were these warrior/bankers (yeah) who set up the first kind of checking account. It didn't make a lot of sense to transport shitloads of gold back and forth from the Holy Land, so instead they wrote IOUs people could take back and forth to Europe and "cash" with other Templars. Meanwhile they uncovered some secrets about early christianity that exposed the pope as a heretic, and they practiced a lot of rituals that involved violence and gay sex.

The templars themselves weren't trying to do that much fighting, but instead were focused on building defensive fortifications. So they needed masons to come out to war zone and build forts. That's a very dangerous proposition, and the only way they were able to convince enough masons to come on board was to invite them into their secret society. So the idea is that these templars were put to death in 1314 but the masons carried on the knowledge of all their satanic rituals. Furthermore the masons spent time in the holy land, and being masons they were able to take measurements and reverse engineer the ancient structures they encountered, including the pyramids and temple of king solomon. So they had this baller masonic knowledge on top of all the esoteric shit. So you can imagine why this would have given Newton a yuge boner in 1600s.

One theory has it that moslems preserved what they found when they conquered the holy land, including all the old books they found. The theory goes that the templars fell in league with the Mohammedans and were learning all these "secrets" that the Mohammedans were using to blackmail the pope. It's like Hillary's emails and Hunter's laptop except 1000 years ago.

So either Newton was dealing with masons 100 years before we knew the masons were dealing in this shit, or Newton was in touch with whoever had this stuff before the masons picked it up. If this thing only sold for $500k I'm guessing it doesn't settle the question of who Newton was talking to.

I gotta say the timeline adds up. They would have been the most likely suspects in the 17th century I think. However they would not have been prominent by the time Newton started writing.

So neckties are supposedly a reference to the masons being hanged. The idea is that if you're an atheistic cutthroat banker type you're getting revenge for the deaths of these men, and you wear the noose around your neck to show your solidarity with them. I'm always skeptical of these things but I have to admit I don't see any possible Christian roots for this style of dress.

But on that level they know exactly what’s going and believe in it.

Newton dedicated much of his time to the study of alchemy and biblical chronology, but most of his work in those areas remained unpublished until long after his death. Politically and personally tied to the Whig party, Newton served two brief terms as Member of Parliament for the University of Cambridge, in 1689–1690 and 1701–1702. He was knighted by Queen Anne in 1705 and spent the last three decades of his life in London, serving as Warden (1696–1699) and Master (1699–1727) of the Royal Mint,

Perhaps the movement which most influenced Isaac Newton was Rosicrucianism.[42] Although the Rosicrucian movement had caused a great deal of excitement within Europe's scholarly community during the early seventeenth century, by the time Newton had reached maturity the movement had become less sensationalized. However, the Rosicrucian movement still would have a profound influence upon Newton, particularly in regard to his alchemical work and philosophical thought.

The Rosicrucian belief in being specially chosen for the ability to communicate with angels or spirits is echoed in Newton's prophetic beliefs. Additionally, the Rosicrucians proclaimed to have the ability to live forever through the use of the elixir vitae and the ability to produce limitless amounts of time and gold from the use of the philosopher's stone, which they claimed to have in their possession. Like Newton, the Rosicrucians were deeply religious, avowedly Christian, anti-Catholic, and highly politicised. Isaac Newton would have a deep interest in not just their alchemical pursuits, but also their belief in esoteric truths of the ancient past and the belief in enlightened individuals with the ability to gain insight into nature, the physical universe, and the spiritual realm.[42]

At the time of his death, Isaac Newton had 169 books on the topic of alchemy in his personal library, and was believed to have considerably more books on this topic during his Cambridge years, though he may have sold them before moving to London in 1696. For its time, his was considered one of the finest alchemical libraries in the world. In his library, Newton left behind a heavily annotated personal copy of The Fame and Confession of the Fraternity R.C., by Thomas Vaughan which represents an English translation of The Rosicrucian Manifestos. Newton also possessed copies of Themis Aurea and Symbola Aurea Mensae Duodecium by the learned alchemist Michael Maier, both of which are significant early books about the Rosicrucian movement. These books were also extensively annotated by Newton.[42]

Newton's ownership of these materials by no means denotes membership within any early Rosicrucian order. Furthermore, considering that his personal alchemical investigations were focused upon discovering materials which the Rosicrucians professed to already be in possession of long before he was born, would seem to some to exclude Newton from their membership. However, in religious terms, the fact that a saint might have 'found God' would not preclude others from the search – quite the opposite. During his own life, Newton was openly accused of being a Rosicrucian, as were many members of The Royal Society.[43] Although it is not known for sure if Isaac Newton was in fact a Rosicrucian, and he never publicly identified himself as one, from his writings it does appear that he may have shared many of their sentiments and beliefs.
