SECRET COMBINATIONS -- I
========================
*The Book of Mormon* contains many references to what it calls
"secret combinations". I take the term to mean, in other words,
"secret societies", "conspiracies", etc. Here are some excerpts.
Note that I am not a Mormon and that I neither necessarily agree
nor disagree with either all or parts of their religious and
other beliefs. I will say, however, that viewed as an historical
text, describing events reaching far back in time, *The Book of
Mormon* is worth looking into.

"And our spirits must have become like unto him, and we
become devils, angels to a devil, to be shut out from the
presence of our God, and to remain with the father of lies, in
misery, like unto himself; yea, to that being who beguiled our
first parents, who transformeth himself nigh unto an angel of
light, and stirreth up the children of men unto secret
combinations of murder and all manner of secret works of
darkness."

"And there are also secret combinations, even as in times of
old, according to the combinations of the devil, for he is the
founder of all these things; yea, the founder of murder, and
works of darkness..."

"Yea, it is that same being who put it into the heart of
Gadianton to still carry on the work of darkness, and of secret
murder; and he has brought it forth from the beginning of man
even down to this time."
"And behold, it is he who is the author of all sin. And
behold, he doth carry on his works of darkness and secret murder,
and doth hand down their plots, and their oaths, and their
covenants, and their plans of awful wickedness, from generation
to generation according as he can get hold upon the hearts of the
children of men."
-- Helaman 6:29-30

"And they did enter into a covenant one with another, yea,
even into that covenant which was given by them of old, which
covenant was given and administered by the devil, to combine
against all righteousness."
"Therefore they did combine against the people of the Lord,
and enter into a covenant to destroy them, and to deliver those
who were guilty of murder from the grasp of justice, which was
about to be administered according to the law."
"And they did set at defiance the law and the rights of their
country; and they did covenant one with another to destroy the
governor, and to establish a king over the land, that the land
should no more be at liberty but should be subject unto kings."
-- 3 Nephi 6:28-30

"And it came to pass that thus they did agree with Akish.
And Akish did administer unto them the oaths which were given by
them of old who also sought power, which had been handed down
even from Cain, who was a murderer from the beginning."
"And they were kept up by the power of the devil to
administer these oaths unto the people, to keep them in darkness,
to help such as sought power to gain power, and to murder, and to
plunder, and to lie, and to commit all manner of wickedness and
whoredoms."

"And in the days of Com there began to be robbers in the
land; and they adopted the old plans, and administered oaths
after the manner of the ancients, and sought again to destroy the
kingdom."

Aperi os tuum muto, et causis omnium filiorum qui pertranseunt.
Aperi os tuum, decerne quod justum est, et judica inopem et
