Episode 43: The Legend of Gerald Heard Begins, and its Transformation of “Christian” Media/Many Exploit the Child-Exploitation Racket, While Domestic Incidents Remain Unmolested

  • Summary

  • This episode continues a lengthy series reviewing a key historical section of the founding of conservative Christian media from Dr. Bennett's last book, "Two Masters and Two Gospels, Vol. 1: The Teaching of Jesus Vs. the "Leaven of the Pharisees" in Talk Radio and Cable News," of which more about it and its availability can be found ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. This episode continues reviewing a 1956 edition of Spiritual Mobilization's Faith and Freedom newsletter, and its profile of its new guru Gerald Heard, his syncretic spiritual beliefs that bedazzled many within his circles, including his best friend Aldous Huxley of Brave New World, and illustrates the "modern" psychoanalysis and Gnostic mystical slant of this widespread periodical for conservative Christians. The "Contemporary Intelligence Briefing Case File" first reports an update on an earlier covered story, with the Arizona courts throwing out a lawsuit by child sexual abuse victims against the Mormon clergy for covering up and not reporting the incidents, and reports of everyone from Tim Tebow to Texas Roadhouse now offering anti-child sex trafficking organizations and activism as a new fad, with seedier derivatives stalking people online for set-up vigilante sting operations. This episode was originally broadcast on WRFN on Nov. 23, 2023. (c) Joseph Michael Bennett 2023
