The Masonic Conspiracy

In late Spring of 1789 Jedidiah Morse, a prominent New England clergyman, warned of a Mason conspiracy that sought to undermine Christian and republican founding principles of the new formed, United States of America. In an analytical essay, discuss how this fear of a Bavarian Illuminati conspiracy reflected cultural and political anxiety on the part of people such as Morse and Yale University president Timothy Dwight.

In your essay, discuss the origins of the Bavarian Illuminati; the cultural and political climate in the United States in 1798; support for this theory from European authors such as Barruel and Robison; support for these theories by Morse and Dwight; and why this theory ultimately failchoed to gain political traction
