Rose Cross Order
Where each worldview places it
R. Swinburne Clymer's order, whose 1916 convocation records Cooper reads as the order's own admission[1]. It says the Illuminati is its "child", that the orders are all one, and that the U.S. was founded by "unseen hierarchies" and "must someday rule the world"[2]. Cooper calls it a branch of the Illuminati[3].
