Excellent question actually, and I'd be happy to try and answer it.

For me, it's simple to see if it's fear mongering or not.

In his "Days of Hunger, Days of Chaos?", Texe Marrs predicted end times on January 1st, 2000 while at the same time selling 3 meals a day for $2,395 plus shipping through AlpineAir Foods. He backed up his fear mongering about Y2K (remember that).

When a "truther" scares us into buying stuff that we don't need (and he makes a hefty commission on), then that's fear/scare mongering.

By the way, end times didn't come at the turn of the century (neither did Y2K), so he's not telling us facts, either.

And if you're not scared enough, Texe is always pushing Planet X... with dates that always come and go without an event.

Folks, listen to the interview... he refuses to answer most of the questions asked... instead he resorts to bullying and name calling. What does that tell you?

Why does he hang up at the end... this guy could talk for days... instead, he only lasts 34 minutes.
