Books That Should Never Have Been Written
Recently I finished James Robison's book on economics, politics and American history. I thought to myself that the book should never have been written with limited credentials for such an endeavor. I have had several posts to my articles here in which the post stated they were glad I read the books so they did not have to. I started thinking about all the books I have read that never should have been published and thought I might come up with a few.

The most obvious first offering is David Barton's, The Myth of Separation of Church and State. Barton's critics have found a welcome home here at talk2action. The Oral Roberts math major lacks the background and objectivity for such an undertaking. None the less He continues to inspire a nation to doubt what they were taught about American history and the First Amendment. He has no shortage of influential followers.
Wikipidea has me as a resource for another book that should have never made it to a publisher. It is Pat Robertson's, New World Order. Pat fed the hysterical suspicions of the far right with this publication. Among the book's gems is that the first President Bush worked secretly with the Masonic Lodge, some Jewish bankers and Jimmy Carter to destroy the nation. I bought my copy at a Southern Baptist book store.
How about the Turner Diaries for another? Author William Pierce inspired Timothy McVeigh and others to bomb the Federal Building in Oklahoma City The prose describes Jewish plots to allow Blacks to become cannibals This gruesome social experiment goes on because the government has taken away weapons for Whites to defend themselves.
David Chilton's, Productive Christians, is a theological nightmare. Chilton wants to impose Old Testament law and its capital offenses on modern America. The Christian Reconstruction author has helped change the attitudes toward government long held by Christians. Chilton advises true believers to channel energies towards government take over. His mentor, R. J. Rushdoony, has a package deal still available to gullible readers. There are hundreds of volumes of the same concept.
Early Religious Right champion Billy Hargis has a host of publications that qualify. His work, Communist America Must it Be?, is a case in point. Billy wrote that Mexico was using immigration issues to infiltrate Communists into America. He also believed our tax dollars supported Soviet Arms build up during the Cold War.
Peg Luksik's, Outcome Based Education, helped energize a home school movement to new points of paranoia. She wrote that the new public school will not have grades given, competition for achievement and its goal is to undermine parental authority. Doctrinal companion Bruce Short published, The Harsh Truth About Public Schools. He concluded public schools are somewhere below Federal prisons in security and residents.
Little known pastor Pete Peters has a long list of offerings to this topic. His work, Whores Galore, claims the new false god in America is the Jew. Fellow pilgrim Texe Marrs has out a jewel named appropriately, Big Sister is Watching You. It claims Hillary is working secretly with Janet Reno in a lesbian plot to destroy the nation.
Nancy Campbell's offering, The Unsatisfied Womb, makes the case there is no overpopulation problem in the world. She encourages real women to find the satisfaction of having as many offspring as possible. Her personal goal was to have 1,000 great grandchildren.
Racist publications would find it hard to top David Duke's, My Awakening. Duke claims race is the key ingredient for all social problems in the nation. David notes that the Civil Rights movement got it all wrong in the 1960s and went against Jesus by ending segregation. Sheldon Emry contributed to the racist movement with, Heirs of the Promise. It's a racist work claiming white Americans are the true lost tribe of Israel and Jews are imposters.
Tom Elliff, now head of Southern Baptist's foreign mission work gave us, America on the Edge. Elliff compares America to ancient Israel in his Christian nation views. He also bashes the original church state ruling known as Everson vs. The Board of Education in 1947.
In anti-Semitic circles its hard to top Henry Ford's, The International Jew. Ford linked Jews with Unions and Communism. The corporate giant was not fond of unions in his book.
Candidate and author Newt Gingrich granted the nation the privilege of reading, To Save America. To save the nation we need to do away with 501c3 and promote the use of pulpits to endorse candidates. First Amendment groups are just trying to silence churches and promote this undisputable socialist trend in the country according to Newt.
Robert Knight published, Radical Rulers. Using the late James Kennedy's press, the author sought to set the record straight on the state of the union. According to Knight, a radical clique of Marxists and extremists are at work in the nation to ruin the moral foundation and free market system. Obama is moving the country into becoming a Muslim nation according to this work.
Gary North is a frequent contributor to viewpoints best left unsaid. In his book, Conspiracy, a Biblical View, he wrote that two secretive groups actually run the nation. He says the Rockefeller Foundation has been at work as well as the Illuminati to sabotage the country.
Dan Smoot, a charter member of the John Birch Society, passed along his work, People Along the Way, before his death. In the book Dan wrote that President Wilson and FDR both lied to get us into war to benefit international bankers. Dan also noted that Joe McCarthy hurt no innocent person and told no lies about the guilty.
Thomas Wang recently sent out 500,000 free copies of his book, America Return to God. The Californian proposed that separation of church and state is a false issue. He warns that the ACLU is seeking to create a secular nation. Wang is similar to John Whitehead in his book, Religious Apartheid. Whitehead published the idea that religious people are being driven from the public square. Whitehead states that separation of church and state is the cause of religious cleansing.
It doesn't get much further to the right than Gerald Winrod's, Adam Weishaupt, a Human Devil. Winrod proposed the idea that a secretive Jewish cartel once led by Weishaupt, has been at work through out recent human history. This secret order, working with Europe's Masonic Lodge, has created the problems in the modern world. Which leads to consideration of the book that helped change the world last century. The book, The Protocols of Zion, has no author's claim to the work. It was used by Hitler to justify his actions. One wonders how the world would be shaped today if this book had never been published.
Who is at fault in such a list? Is it the writers who come up with such? Are publishers to blame for contributing to such bad information? Or is it a gullible public who purchases and reads these things?
With all the things that need to be written, it is tragic that so many works should have never been published.
