I got an email this morning asking me to join the Illuminati. I feel so special...

[Thomas Hurt]

Who wouldn't want to be part of the super secret organization that controls the world.

I imagine there is a membership fee, credit card info or other PI required...........LOL.

1. :) Just opening it may make you...virtually immortal.

[MontanaMama]

2. Wonder if you get some cool

Illuminati swag? T shirt, tote bag or coffee mug?

[Thomas Hurt]

4. Probably says: I joined the illuminati and all I got was this lousy t-shirt.

3. Good for you!

I am a member, myself. It's real alright.

5. No double-dipping!

If you join the Illuminati, you have to give up the George Soros payments...

[FM123]

6. Wow! I can only imagine how much fun you will have pledging....

[JHB]

7. The fee's only $35 on Amazon

9. I have the real deal

Robert Anton Wilson had a hand in the production of this card game.

Illuminati is a standalone card game made by Steve Jackson Games (SJG), inspired by the 1975 book, The Illuminatus! Trilogy, by Robert Anton Wilson and Robert Shea. The game has ominous secret societies competing with each other to control the world through various means, including legal, illegal, and even mystical. It was designed as a "tongue-in-cheek rather than serious" take on conspiracy theories. It contains groups named similarly to real world organizations, such as the Society for Creative Anachronism and the Symbionese Liberation Army. It can be played by two to eight players. Depending on the number of players, a game can take between one and six hours.

8. Be careful of fake Illuminattis,

The real ones will send you their decoder ring.

10. You should write back and tell them that you are already a member.

Then tell them that you'll be seeing to it that the Illuminati Police track them down and make them face the consequences for impersonating the Illuminati.

[Thomas Hurt]

11. that is devious and mean...I like it.

[First Speaker]

12. Just remember a quote from the late Robert Anton Wilson...

"...the final secret of the Illuminate is that you don't know you're a member until it's too late to get out." Let me tell you something, from personal experience of the weird days of the 1970s--this is a lot less funny than it appears...

[Thomas Hurt]

13. The less funny or threatening part is not the illuminati, it the conspiracy theorists who believe it
