3.0 out of 5 stars
Skull & Bones Expose, February 1, 2001
What an extremely interesting book. I have read Anthony Sutton's book "America's Secret Establishment" as well as this one. Mr. Marrs takes you to the secret ceremony that George Bush went through, like so many before and since, on the night he was inducted into the Skull & Bones Society. This book will inform you about illumination of the masses by this society. If you find this book hard to believe, do your own research. But use this book as a tool to get you heading in the right direction.

A Critique, January 11, 2000
By A Customer
The book, as a whole, was interesting to say the least. However, as is the case with conspiritorial theorists, UFO hunters, Loch Ness monster watchers, and so forth, the book lacks any academic rigor. Marrs does not back up his truth-claims, nor does he explain how these groups will consolidate their power to take over the world, a large endevor to say the least. Whereas I am sure the book has a certain element of truth to it, Marrs seems to want us to fear what we cannot see, explain, or be a part of. He taps into the millenial fears of those who are willing to let him and hold stock in the claim that these individuals are the real cause for our ills. They are not the cause. We are. Humanity doesn't need help to be screwed up. In the end, the enormous plan of world domination by secret orders and economic giants is unconvincing.

Christian slop for the dumbed-down , December 11, 2005
I see some have given reviews that Marrs researched his subject area well. What he's done is give some conspiratorial reason for life as we know it. He connects unrelated dots and makes so many egregious errors its not even worth mentioning.
Because some guy makes some "connections" and offers cockamamie theories disguised as "insight' and "knowledge" doesn't make them true, people. I used to be a Fundie Christian, but I could never quite understand how some supposed intelligent people could believe such utter toxic waste and even more so when less and less evidence produced. The structure of a cult has it that you recruit the brainier types. For some reason they are easier to bamboozle. Intellectual morons are what they're called in some circles. I'm not saying Christians are intelligent (from my experience, quite the opposite, but the leaders are), but those who are "intelligent" are blind, arrogant (usually), make massive conclusions based upon virtually nothing and fit the same pattern as the Christians who destroyed ancient Rome and brought on the Dark Ages. What was rumor and innuendo (usually stemming from paranoia and slop originating from the authors of books like the subject of this review) ends up being cirulated and recirculated to the point that within these circles it becomes some NWO and Luciferian reality. Scary ain't it? Then, they cause wars to take place in far-flung places like Iraq so to bring about the death and chaos and so the Messiah can ride down and impose his version of a dictatorship and meanwhile our "good" Christians get to rule with a iron rod. Sounds like fantasy, right? Not to these psychos. Because they are psychotic in their actions and the delivery system is Christ-insanity. Allow this mental toxic waste to propagate then you got another Dark Ages with added life destroying methods like bio warfare, nuclear weapons and environmental degradation. All for the arrival of the Messiah!
Anyway, people, this guy, Mr. Marrs, repesents the same forces that destroyed European culture and achievement (thus relagating her to backwater status) for over 1,000 years, commencing with the Dark Ages where all knowledge and old ways were considered evil and heretical. Of the DEVIL! Lucifer, Baal, Satan, Molech, you get the drift.
I believe some "belief-systems" are toxic waste waiting to destroy in the name of love and grace. Christ-insanity is one such cult gone wild. If it blossoms again be prepared for incessant wars to bring about the Messiah and a earth destroyed for their paranoid and evil delusions. THEY are the EVIL ones folks! The greatest country as yet (eventhough its tarnished now) is probably the USA due to a farreaching and foresight oriented document called "The Constitution". The men that brought it about were mostly Freemasons and Deists. They didn't want the same petty religious squabbles that were happening in Britian between various psychopathic Christian factions to inundate the new America. The Puritans, for example, were persecuted by rival Christian factions and when they obtained power became the persecutors. I've researched how the Christians really acted in ancient Rome. They targetted higher ups (rich, wealthy, senators) to convert and then plotted and succeeded in controlling the Roman state, i.e. Constantine. They used basically the same tactics as early to modern communists. Scheming and doing everything possible to destroy the Roman state so through a chaos scenario they can usurp it. They did more than that. Then they destroyed all the vestiges of the old relgions, banned all freedom of thought, annihilated science, philosophy and other disciplines. Europe didn't slink out of this until the Renaissance. Meanwhile, guys like Marrs would say how the Pope or some other religious leader was evil and of "the Devil" and the cycle would endlessly repeat over and over and over.....until the madness abates with reason and open inquiry without the fear of being put in the Iron Maiden for heretical thoughts. For example, Germany, in the 30 Years War in the early 1600s was turned into a wasteland (1/2 of the population destroyed) due to Marrsesque madness.
Folks, there is a conspiracy, mostly of very wealthy, high level, types who want to hold onto their shekels to the detriment of all. Basic human pettiness and greed is the most part. They use Democrazy and conflicting factions (religious and ethnic - divide and conquer) to hold basic control and offer the illusion of *voting*. Bearing in mind the sleazebag politicians will do whatever gives them a new car or vacation and knowing *selling out* has become a virtue. They, these guys and politicians, are criminals for the most part destroying the planet, our health, our very existence. However, because of their utter and complete corruption they will go down and no amount of BS democrazy is going to save their sorry asses when all their ill-gotten wealth and property (maybe even *more*) is confiscated. It is another cycle and it will happen sooner than you think. So forget about numbnuts Marrs and his drivel for the slow witted. These a**holes that I described will crash & burn soon enough. This is due to organic historical cycles and a shifting of wealth and power. I can only hope a strong man comes about that makes them pay dearly for their arrogance and greed. Ruthless action is what will come my friends and when it does they won't have any place to hide.
