Learning With Texe Marrs

Texe Marrs is an outstanding American conspiracy researcher and also - so far as can be judged from cyberspace - an honorable Christian man.

Had it not been for Freeman's Codex Magica show, listening to Texe Marrs would have been out of the question. Credit is also given to a commenter over at the petri dish who offered a Walter Veith link that inspired reopen-mindedness. Adding to the inspiration is the Roman tribe's follies. When the Vicar of Christ abandons the shepherds to the wolves, a sheep sometimes finds herself in other pastures.

And so we visited The Power of Prophecy with Texe Marrs. With a prepared stack or two of documents before him at his desk, Marrs greets the camera with natural friendliness and confidence. Behind him is a working bookcase. He begins and ends his videos with a practical public Christian prayer. In between, he's mostly business peppered with scripture-referenced assurances and reminders.

Marrs' stack of documents contains copies and originals of public records, mainstream and offbeat news publications, and magazine and book excerpts pertaining to the subject at hand. Before raising the first document for a close-up camera shot, he briefly outlines his presentation. His material is sourced and his statements and evidence coincide. His arguments are coherent. His conclusions dovetail with biblical prophetic interpretations in an intriguing way. At first Marrs appeared to be riding shotgun in an end times vehicle but a closer inspection revealed him to be a seasoned, scholarly navigator of his own craft.

It was a pleasant surprise to find discussion of Zechariah Sitchen with close-ups of Sumerian pictograms in the nine-part series on Planet X. Marrs toured through astronomical theology, mythology and science to inspect curiosities such as Saturn, Lucifer and the Dogon Tribe of Africa.

Illuminati Mystery Babylon is a pre-nine-eleven production which focuses on the political players of America, Israel and Russia with heavy emphasis on the Clinton administration cast and crew. It was news indeed that James 'Mary Matalin' Carville was dispatched to Israel to oversee Benjamin Netanyahu's selection campaign which birthed the cueball an Israeli consulting business. Marrs identifies the power people as Jewish Illuminati but the label was not over-used and did not interfere with the facts he presented.

The Eagle has Landed is a dandy field trip through the ranks and pranks of the Masons involved in the moon-landings.

Texe Marrs makes a lot of sense and if one is willing to set aside the religious overtones, there is valuable information to be learned from his presentations.
