I was born into this sect: my mother was rosicrucian, my aunt and my uncle. It's a family enterprise, closely related to my mothers family name. Rosicrucians were based in the New Forest in England - and they still are.

Rosicrucians in my family are

• very secretive (they have very good reasons, I tell you more later)
• pray to the devil, witches, wizzards and actually really believe in them!
• its a seemingly "new age" group (i.e. seems fashionable hippie)
• nobody in my family ever achieved anything - to me they are just a bunch of losers
• and we are close friends with another family, a Gardner family descending from the founder of the rosicrucians. But of course in these families they believe, the religion to be older than...Christianity. Or humanity.
• well, and I omitted the most important aspect of being rosicrucian in my family (and the Gardner one): incest is ripe, they torture their own kids in order to "program" them. Seriously. And to a certain level it even works, because everybody in my family is fucked up big time. That is why they don't achieve anything. And do the same to other children, kill animals etc.

Apart from terrible child abuse that is. In how to abuse or terrorize a child, they are outstanding

Even within the families these things are not known by everybody. Family members that are not in the sect are kept in the unknown. The children are made to keep the secret, by threatening them with torture and death.

Not only children of our own families are affected. The sect leader is extremely sick (presently my senile uncle, who is called "your highness"), so he needs a constant supply of children. He seems nice middle class and so he is trusted occasionally with children by his oblivious friends. Or they go into the New Forest and kidnap a child. The child is drugged, severely abused and threatened with death. Mostly they don't say a word (and because they were unknowingly drugged, what they say does not make much sense anyway).

My family has been with the masons I don't know for how many generations. Are they into this as well? In the net there is a lot of talk about secretive groups in the masons organization and how they silence people, who find out.
