AUTHORS: Hunt, Dave Masonic authorities such as Albert Mackey, Albert Pike and Manly P. Hall have been very open about the occult influences within Freemasonry.

Genocide
HTML	PDF	Casting Stones - Christianity and the History of Genocide
AUTHORS: Teichrib, Carl Fundamental Christians are to blame. We are the cause of untold suffering and mass death. We are the force behind the environmental crisis.

Meditation
HTML	PDF	Meditation - Part 1
AUTHORS: Ankerberg, Dr. John / Weldon, Dr. John True or false: “Meditation is mentioned in the Bible, so it is perfectly safe for anyone to use any of the currently popular meditation techniques.” While it is true that the Bible mentions meditation, and even encourages Christians to meditate, biblical meditation is quite different from the so-called “new-age” meditation practiced so eagerly today.
