That's an interesting insight Kate. I've never read Illuminati News per se, although I have stumbled across a few stories published by them when researching various other things.
The question is therefore, are there "good" Illuminati? Like you I would need to be convinced of that. Prof. Antony Sutton in his four little books on the Order of the Skulls and Bones made it very clear that this Order was a continuation of the Illuminati - as was the Oxford "Group".
Any secret Order that has several generations of the Bush family as members are, de facto, bloody stinking evil imo.
But it is not uncommon for secret societies to begin life with the best of intentions only to be later corrupted. This is one of the great dangers of secrecy of course. One might point, as an example, to the Rosicrucian Order that begun life thanks to the great energy and intellect Sir Francis Bacon. Today, so far as I can tell, the various Rosicrucian Orders like AMORC are the repository of the very worst people and things - and, of course, the British Rosicrucians were, and have always had, a heavy membership from British intelligence, because Bacon himself was an "intelligencer" for his mother, Queen Elizabeth 1, in her ever perilous fight against the Holy Roman Church that continually sought to usurp her.
Having said this I think it possible that there are good people within these Orders but they would be the minority and not representative of the Orders current aims and ambitions. The gold in the dungheap so to speak.

The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
