Conspiracy: A Biblical View, by Gary North - EntreWave

INTRODUCTIONappeared that seek to prove that: Butch Cassidy wasn't killed in SouthAmerica; some of the Czar's family were rescued in 1918; JohnDillinger wasn't killed by the FBI; Amelia Earhart didn't crash, andthe plane she was supposed to be flying turned up decades later in atan auction; Sacco and Vanzetti didn't kill anyone (or maybe Sacco didbut Vanzetti didn't); Bruno Hauptman didn't kidnap the Lindberghbaby; Roosevelt knew the Japanese were about to attack Pearl Harbor;Hitler didn't liquidate the Jews; Dwight D. Eisenhower was aconscious agent of the Communist conspiracy, implying therefore,even more improbably (in the opinion of many), that Dwight D.Eisenhower was conscious; the United States is controlled by a secretconspiracy of: 1) .Jewish bankers; 2) Freemasons; 3)the Illuminati; 4)the Council on Foreign Relations; 5) the Trilateral Commission; 6)monopoly capitalists; 7) Communist agents; 8)the Vatican; 9)Theosophists; 10) British bankers who are behind the world's drugsmugglers and who are in fact agents of the Queen; 11) a cult ofmystic Masters who were trained in Tibet; 12) visitors from outerspace who have taken on human characteristics; 13) four of the above;14) all of the above. And we dare not forget that perennial favorite:"The Rosenbergs were framed!"About the only thesis that has not been offered so far is that Nixonreally didn't know anything about the Watergate break-in until he readabout it in the Washington Post.Then comes the inevitable question: Who is covering up? And why?Why the conspiracy of silence?Is all of this crazy? Or is some of it correct? What should the seriousChristian think about conspiracies? This little book is designed to helpyou come to Bible-based conclusions concerning these questions.Footnotes:1 Ray R.
