Pastor Harris,
Another thing, I talked to another one of my colleagues, and he mentioned that the same letter arrived on his desk. I was interested to hear his insight. Without any prompting from me, he mentioned that the "prophecies" sound Mormon in nature due to the fact that they don't quote scripture.
I was also wondering what led you to think that this is a white supremacist cult. Was there something about that in the text of the "prophecies?" Thanks!
I too immediately recognized a "Mormon flavor" to the whole deal before doing any research. I then found that most of the documents were simply a direct reprint of "essays" by Harry Edgar Baker, a known polygamist Mormon. Some of my thoughts are correlative and inferential based on the other writings by and about Mr. Baker. At others times, not included in the mailing, he wrote strongly in favor of the "curse of Ham" or "mark of Cain" teachings. While this "white supremacy" has always had some place among the Mormon community, it has often been controversial (Smith himself was said to be an abolitionist) and has now fallen out of favor, except by extreme fundamentalists. Baker was clearly on this end of the spectrum.
