Texe Marrs Explained
Texe William Marrs (July 15, 1944 – November 23, 2019) was an American writer and radio host, who ran two fundamentalist Christian ministries, Power of Prophecy Ministries and Bible Home Church, both based in Austin, Texas. His teachings included elements of antisemitism, anti-Catholicism, Illuminati and Freemasonry conspiracy theories.
He was an officer in the United States Air Force for 20 years, reaching the rank of captain,[1] and a faculty member at the University of Texas.[2]
Media coverage
Marrs received coverage from the news media for his claims that:
- The Oklahoma City bombing was planned and carried out by the American government,[3] and that the terrorist Timothy McVeigh was framed.[4]
- Judaism is the most evil satanic cult that ever existed and Jews are conspiring to overtake the whole world through deceit and cultic worship.[5] [6]
- Hillary Clinton is a doctrinaire Marxist who has recruited other America-hating subversives for key administration posts.[7] Hillary Clinton also has Orwellian political ambitions.[8] According to Marrs: "Bill Clinton is an establishment hack, a member of the traitorous Trilateral Commission, the Bilderbergers, and Council of Foreign Relations. He and Hillary are deep into Egyptian occultism and Masonic magic."
- "Newt Gingrich is a closet Marxist and member of the occultic secret society known as the Bohemian Grove."[9]
- "Bob Dole is a 33rd degree Mason and a fake conservative. He's anti-Jesus Christ."
- Bill Martin's plans for a Christian naturist resort is evidence that Satan is subverting Christianity.[10]
- Described as the "conspiracy theorist to end all conspiracy theorists" for his book Codex Magica: Secret Signs, Mysterious Symbols, and Hidden Codes of the Illuminati, which purports to expose a secret conspiracy between politicians and other famous people through modern history.[11]
- In his book, The Usual Suspects: Answering Anti-Catholic Fundamentalists, Karl Keating debates Marrs's claim that the Pope plans to head a one-world order.[12]
Public behavior
Marrs has been accused of being anti-Catholic.[13] In 1999 he alleged that former United States President George H. W. Bush would be involved in a black mass in a chamber within the Great Pyramid of Giza during the 2000 millennium celebrations.[14] Christian writer Constance Cumbey has accused Marrs of plagiarizing material from her book Hidden Dangers of the Rainbow.[15] She requested her name never be associated with Texe Marrs because of his exaggerations and blatant anti-Semitism.
Texe Marrs has promoted a book, The Greatest Lie on Earth: Proof That Our World is Not a Moving Globe, by Edward Hendrie, which alleges that the planet Earth is immobile and flat.
