Francis Bacon
Francis Bacon, 1st Viscount St. Alban (22 January 1561 – 9 April 1626) was an English philosopher, statesman, scientist, jurist, orator, essayist, and author. The Templars used and influenced his works, such as New Atlantis, to make science and rationalism flourish in society, in order to advance the Order's goals.[1]
Trivia
- In the database entry for Oak Island, Shaun Hastings claimed that Francis Bacon had used William Kidd's "Money Pit" to store the original documents proving that he wrote the works of William Shakespeare, although Shaun quickly admitted that it was not true.[2]
