Excerpts:
S03E11
"After the war, on July 16th, 1790, plans were
announced for the construction of a national capital to be
built on the banks of the Potomac River.
Named after George Washington, the new nation's first president,
it would be designed
to resemble classic Greco-Roman architecture."
MICHAEL CORWE: In the 5th century, 4th century BC, before Christ
there was a very active debate in regard to the question of extraterrestrial life,
the atomists, being Democritus, Leucippus, Epicurus and Lucretius,
all believed in the plurality of worlds,
or believed in extraterrestrial life.
For the Founding Fathers, this idea of the plurality of worlds,
was well-known as one of the cornerstones of ancient philosophy.

FREEMASONRY
"Fredricksburg, Virginia, 1720.
20-year-old George Washington is initiated into a secret society:
the Freemasons.
Among his fellow members are many other Founding Fathers,
like Benjamin Franklin, John Hancock and Paul Revere.
But what is Freemasonry?
What role did it play in the founding of the United States?
And what meanings lie behind their many mysterious symbols?
ELIAS: There are a lot of theories about the true origins of Freemasonry.
What we know for a fact is that definitely with the age of the Renaissance
this is when people decided to start studying ancient civilizations.
And see was there any knowledge in those civilizations that was lost?
According to experts, the Freemasons believed in the idea
of acquiring knowledge through largely scientific
as wel as spiritul means.
In the age of Enlightenment, this included the examining the possibility
of extraterrestrial life.
The original universal symbol of Freemasonry is the
square and compass.
The compass is the main tool of the individual.
You are at the point, and the idea in Freemasonry is that
the individual is sovereign.
You draw a circle, using the compass around you.
If you go beyond the perimeter,
that's when you start to go into knowledge and light.
The square is considered as symbol of wisdom.
And the letter "G" ,stands for the grand architect of the universe.
"The same people who were involved in the development
of Freemasonry were very interested in Egypt.
They were inspired by the idea of ancient wisdom.
(eye on dollar bill)
ELIAS: The idea is we need a source of light
in order to help us become enlightened.
