Texe William Marrs (July 15, 1944 - November 23, 2019) was an American writer and radio host. He ran two Christian ministries, Power of Prophecy Ministries and Bible Home Church, both based in Austin, Texas. Marrs' teachings include views on the End Times, with highly controversial elements of antisemitism, anti-Catholicism, Anti-Illuminati and Anti-Freemasonry.

He was an officer in the United States Air Force for 20 years and a faculty member at the University of Texas.[2]

Media coverage

Marrs received coverage from the news media for his controversial claims that:

  • The Oklahoma City bombing was planned and carried out by the American government.[3]
  • 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.
  • Hillary Rodham Clinton is a "doctrinaire Marxist" who has recruited "other America-hating subversives for key administration posts".[5]
  • "Newt Gingrich is a closet Marxist and member of the occultic secret society known as the Bohemian Grove."[6]
  • "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."[6]
  • "Robert Dole is a 33rd degree Mason and a fake conservative. He's anti-Jesus Christ."[6]
  • Insistence that Bill Martin's plans for a Christian naturist resort is evidence that Satan is subverting Christianity.[7]
  • 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.[8]
  • Accused Hillary Rodham Clinton of having "Orwellian" political ambitions.[9]
  • 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.[10]
  • His statement (with Karen Read) that "the exclusion of women from combat inevitably makes them second- class citizens in the military."[11]

Public behavior

Marrs was accused of being anti-Catholic.[12] 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.[13] Christian writer Constance Cumbey accused Marrs of plagiarism of material from her book Hidden Dangers of the Rainbow.[14]
