Assassin's Facism

Cue Indy theme.



In the final scene at 9:05 the line "may the Father of Understanding be with us" is revealed to have occult and Islamic origins.

"Baphomet" may derive from the Arabic word أبو فهمة Abu fihama(t), meaning "The Father of Understanding."

"19th century the name came into popular English-speaking consciousness with the publication of various works of pseudo-history that tried to link the Knights Templar with conspiracy theories elaborating on their suppression."

Unbelievable ancient astroturfing. What I bet this game franchise will end up doing is providing a Di Vinci Code-slash-Illuminati cult explaination for that crazy art on the back of US money.

Granted by fact, opposed to the Bill of Rights which cleanses corruption, politics of the Renaissance shared more in common with La Cosa Nostra which insists on a similar code of silence as carried over from that ancient era, but the historically prudent Catholic church is still presented as the villain in Part Three of the webseries.


The Knights Templar have become associated with legends concerning secrets and mysteries handed down to the select from ancient times.
