00:00The whole principle of the secret society lies in its name.

00:02It is usually an esoteric organization that welcomes members,

00:06and the members in question must keep the organization and its activities secret.

00:10Today there are all kinds of secret societies,

00:12and they are described as fraternities by some, and as sects by others.

00:16Freemasonry, the best known, the Illuminati, the most mysterious,

00:19or even Scientology, the most bling bling.

00:22Because yes, the term sect is often associated with certain secret societies.

00:26It evokes psychological constraint, manipulation.

00:29Today we are almost certain that Freemasonry is not a sect,

00:32because it is difficult to get in, but very easy to get out.

00:35Then it no longer has many secrets, and today we know a lot about this organization.

00:39On the other hand, Scientology is considered a sect,

00:42who manipulates and enslaves its members.

00:44In Europe, the Church of Scientology is considered a sect,

00:47and was convicted in particular of involuntary manslaughter, following a suicide.

00:51Look, really, this is ridiculous, this is absolutely ridiculous.

01:00Many investigations point in this direction, and many documentaries demonstrate it.

01:03In particular, one of the most successful, I find, Going Clear,

01:06which involves eight former Scientologists who make some rather shocking revelations

01:10on the functioning of this organization.

01:12But here, I am talking about the most famous ones.

01:13There are obviously other secret societies,

01:15like Student Fraternities, in particular, on American campuses,

01:18which, like the organizations mentioned above, will evolve enormously around different rites,

01:22which notably allow integration into these fraternities.

01:25The School and Bonds is probably the best known, but we'll come back to that.

01:28We also have criminal organizations, different mafias, terrorist movements.

01:32And finally, we can also integrate the intelligence services,

01:35who remain very discreet about their operation.

01:37So it's a very broad range, and all these mysteries will inevitably raise certain questions,

01:41and will fuel various conspiracy theories, particularly on the Internet,

01:44where some associate these organizations with various major events in human history.

01:49Sites also inspired in spite of themselves by fiction,

01:51who will have a field day putting the principle of the conspiracy into pictures.

01:55Obviously, it helps to create good scenarios.
