Martinist Orders states they are the only authentic Martinists?

They are. So are the others! It is easy to be cynical and bash various groups.

In time, perhaps the situation will get better. The thing is that sometimes you encounter members of these orders who have been programmed into thinking they know everything about Martinism but are actually very ill informed. Whose line of "filiations" is true?

The annoyance is simply that the eternal clash of egos has caused the eternal subdivisions of churches and fraternities. And rather than to get bogged down in that debate of who is more authentic and engage in a titanic battle to preserve the ego's lineage, it is more simple to opt out of that argument altogether and say, my spiritual lineage rests where I feel good. Why bother when the goal is simply to re-connect and re-awaken those archetypes within and re-connect with the divine within and without?

The true Martinist tradition is open and encourages investigation of many different traditions. It has done so since the time of Papus. More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
