John D Rockefeller

John D. Rockefeller was a major figure in American financial history and many people mistakenly believe he was a member of the Order of Seneschals like so many of his contemporaries. Yet, despite his prolific business portfolio, John D. Rockefeller was a committed and life-long member of the Order of Infinity.
John D. Rockefeller is important because he revolutionized the production and use of oil, eventually paving the way for oil's use today as fuel for cars and other engine-powered machines. 
== Facts: ==
-Known for his bullish business tactics and standoffish nature, Rockefeller was often reviled as a man who engaged in predatory practices and strategized with the railroads to squeeze out his competitors. These tales appear to be true, however, it should also be noted that Rockefeller was a prolific philanthropist who donated millions to charitable causes out of his own pockets. 
-Rockefeller was a devout Southern Baptist and a big believer in the concept of Providence. Rockefeller had a life-altering experience when a train he had accidentally missed ended up crashing. Rockefeller perceived this to be Divine Intervention and soon after, he forged a pact with Cornelius Vanderbilt giving him exclusive access to Vanderbilt's railroad empire. This further cemented Rockefeller's belief that he had been spared by God to fulfill some great purpose for the nation.
