Texe W. Marrs (born 1944) is an American writer and radio host, who runs two fundamentalist Christian ministries, Power of Prophecy Ministries and Bible Home Church, both based in Austin, Texas. He often criticizes Jews and Roman Catholicism in favor of Protestantism.
He was previously an officer in the United States Air Force and a faculty member at the University of Texas.[2]
Media coverage
Marrs has received coverage from the news media for his claims that:
- The Oklahoma City bombing was planned and carried out by the American government.[3]
- Judaism is the most evil satanic cult that ever existed and Jews are conspiring to overtake the whole world through deceit and cultic worship.[4]
- Timothy McVeigh was framed.[5]
- Hillary Clinton is a doctrinaire Marxist who has recruited other America-hating subversives for key administration posts.[6]
- "Newt Gingrich is a closet Marxist and member of the occultic secret society known as the Bohemian Grove."[7]
- "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. [7]
- "Robert Dole is a 33rd degree Mason and a fake conservative. He's anti-Jesus Christ."[7]
- Bill Martin's plans for a Christian naturist resort is evidence that Satan is subverting Christianity.[8]
- 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.[9]
- Hillary Rodham Clinton has Orwellian political ambitions.[10]
- In his book, The Usual Suspects: Answering Anti-Catholic Fundamentalists, Karl Keating debunks Marrs's claim that the Pope plans to head a one-world order.[11]
- "The exclusion of women from combat inevitably makes them second- class citizens in the military."[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 plagiarism of material from her book Hidden Dangers of the Rainbow.[15]
Additionally, Texe Marrs has promoted a book, The Greatest Lie on Earth: Proof That Our World is Not a Moving Globe, by Edward Hendrie, which seriously argues that the planet Earth is immobile and flat, based on an interpretation of the Bible.[16] Marrs also offers Hendrie's book asserting this argument through his ministry,[17] and books by Hendrie alleging that the world is being manipulated by a vast Jewish-Catholic conspiracy.[18]
