Some dare call it

Texe Marrs is an American author and conspiracy theorist.[2][3] His books Dark
Secrets of the New Age and Mystery Mark of the New Age were both #1 bestsellers
on the Christian book market in 1987-88. Marrs was also a major promoter of Satanic
Panic and a scare within American evangelical Christendom over the New Age
movement. He has disseminated his idiocy through newsletters and ministries under
several names, including "Living Truth Ministries", Flashpoint, and currently Power of
Prophecy (his shortwave radio program), and "Bible Home Church".

Marrs claimed the New Age movement was intended to set up the Antichrist's world
Pamela Geller
religion based on combining all world religions except evangelical Christianity into
SyrianGirlPartisan
one. He somehow linked just about every other evangelical scare-issue to the New
WWCR
Age movement: abortion was the form human sacrifices to Satan would take in the
v-t-e
New Age; the ecumenical movement of mainline-to-liberal Christian denominations
was part of the New Age movement pushing for a world government; Universal
Product Codes were the mark of the beast; etc. Before he started churning out Christian books on the New Age,
he was churning out bad hack books for the "career preparation" market, on how to have careers in robotics[4] ,
high tech, computers, and aerospace. Oh, and a book called The Perfect Name For Your Pet.
Marrs' writings on the New Age borrowed heavily from The Hidden Dangers of the Rainbow, an earlier 1983 book
by Constance Cumbey, which started most of the evangelical scare over the New Age. Cumbey and Marrs
posited a conspiracy theory basing the leadership of the New Age movement around, largely, those following the
teachings of "prophet" Benjamin Creme and esotericist writer Alice Bailey who were awaiting the coming of a
new "messiah" named Maitreya which Cumbey and Marrs considered a likely candidate for the "Antichrist".
Cumbey has accused Marrs of wholesale plagiarism from her book, and humbly requests that nobody imply any
association between her and Texe Marrs. Fair enough, no association implied; we don't blame her for not wanting
to be associated with Texe Marrs.[5]

Marrs goes off the deep end

[edit]

Subsequent Texe Marrs books went so far off the deep end that even the Christian book market decided he was
too whacko to continue to promote, although the specific reason they dropped him like a hot potato appears to
be that Marrs started including George H.W. Bush and his "thousand points of light" and "New World Order"
slogans as part of the New Age conspiracy (a big no-no for the religious right, which exists by and for the
Republican Party, or the other way around). He has self-published everything since, where he writes about the

Illuminati, UFOs, and shape-shifting lizard-people, promotes King James Onlyism, and most recently has veered
into overt anti-Semitism. Actually "overt anti-Semitism" is an understatement. What else would you call
somebody who writes the introduction to a book called The Synagogue of Satan: The Secret History of Jewish
World Domination that features the Star of David on the front cover, and sells that book on his website?
Here's a sample of his rantings, from his book Conspiracy World (Page 179):

"The goal of the Jewish Masonic elite is to establish dictatorial Illuministic Communism and to
enslave all mankind under the thumb of a Jewish master race led by a world messiah who is to
rule from Jerusalem."

Marrs has incorporated just about every anti-Semitic and anti-Catholic canard into his current iterations of the
ultimate conspiracy. He alleges that the Pope is actually not Catholic, but a crypto-Jew/Muslim/Hindu... or

something, implementing the new one world religion. So in short, Satan and/or the antichrist.[6] You can find
plenty of articles on the international Jewish conspiracy's greatest hits on his site the Federal Reserve, the
Rothschild family, etc. You can also order your very own copy of The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion, or
even Martin Luther's anti-Semitic screed On the Jews and Their Lies, from the site's bookstore, as well as Marrs'
own works, such as Holy Serpent of the Jews: The Rabbis Secret Plan for Satan to Crush Their Enemies and Vault
the Jews to Global Dominion.
Marrs has even jumped into the cesspit of Holocaust denial. On his ministry's website, he sells his own
recordings with such titles as The Holocaust Controversy and the Falsification of History and Holocaust Dogma
UnmaskedA Grim Global Conspiracy Mocking Reality and Capitalizing on Death. He even peddles Holocaust
revisionist books, such as The Holocaust Hoax Exposed: Debunking the 20th Centurys Biggest Lie by Victor
Thorn, and A Greater "Miracle" Than The Lost Ten Tribes Discovered...The Dead "Six Million" Uncovered...! by
Brian Alois Clraubat.
Marrs not only appears in Steve Anderson and Paul Wittenberger's anti-Semitic "documentary" Marching to
Zion,[7] he offers it for sale on his website.
On 25 August 2016, RightWingWatch.org reported that during a radio interview with Jeff Rense, Marrs stated
(favorably) that Republican Presidential candidate Donald Trump might be God's instrument for destroying both
Israel and the Jews.

""Israel is going to be destroyed and it is going to happen so fast we'll all be shocked about it. It's
going to happen and I've been wondering if maybe, let me just say something here, could Trump
be the instrument of God in this? He doesn't have to be a Hitler, he doesn't have to be a Stalin, he
can simply be a good guy. ... I think this may turn out quite surprising. I pray it does. I pray that
they (the Jews) will get what's coming to them. Now, anyone who's innocent, though, I mean, if
they're Jew or Gypsy, Gentile, whatever they are, I want to see them delivered. I want to see
them free. But these people who have done such horrible things over the years and who, right
now, are plotting such horrible deeds against Gentiles and others, I hope they get what they
deserve. I hope they do and I hope maybe Trump could be the instrument of it."[8]
