Racing Toward Armageddon

The Three Great Religions and the Plot to End the World

By: Michael Baigent

Narrated by: John Lee

In Racing Toward Armageddon, Michael Baigent, the New York Times bestselling author of The Jesus Papers and Holy Blood, Holy Grail, exposes the conspiracy of religious extremists in the Holy Land and their efforts to bring about the end of the world in our lifetime. Baigent expose the many diverse, public, and clandestine figures who are driving this perilous messianic message forward, and poses a pressing question: can we really afford to remain oblivious much longer?

Interesting conspiracy nitpicking

The author seems to have had a messy research desk, because he keeps jumping from one thing to another in a way that shows that he's throwing the blame for everything wrong with the world on belief systems he has little to no understanding about.

He did almost reach a bold conclusion at the end, but backed off just short of stating it and instead went the secular way, which would definitely boost sales and make it more acceptable to people who like to have authors pat them on the back. I'm talking about how he almost admitted that Islam is right and all gods are one.

I hope the next author has more backbone, and writes boldly to the logical conclusion instead of appealing to a wider audience.

Brilliant!

His research was impeccable. Questions I've had about some of the new religions dominating the American landscape were answered. There are extremists in all three of the Abrahamic religions try to bring on Armageddon and the rapture. These people are increasingly dangerous as they gain power in the government arena. Their goals are religious and their premise as Bagient so brilliantly deconstructs is wrong. This would all be about more groups waiting for their religious truths to light up the skies except for TGEIR infiltration into the highest levels of government. I hope our Constitution can hold these theocrats at bay.

a real mind opener

I've actually listened to this book several times and always pick up some bit of information I had missed previously. Well thought out, researched, and executed.

Anti religious Propaganda

Waste of time. Muh it’s the dinosaurs, stupid. Heresy disguised as a well balanced “scientific” work.
