You've heard of the "Great Books"? These are their evil opposites. From Machiavelli's The Prince to Karl Marx's Communist Manifesto to Alfred Kinsey's Sexual Behavior in the Human Male, these "influential" books have led to war, genocide, totalitarian oppression, family breakdown, and disastrous social experiments. And yet these authors' bad ideas are still popular and pervasive-in fact, they might influence your own thinking without your realizing it. Here with the antidote is Professor Benjamin Wiker. In his scintillating new book, '10 Books That Screwed Up the World: And 5 Others That Didn't Help', he seizes each of these evil books by its malignant heart and exposes it to the light of day. In this witty, learned, and provocative expose, you'll learn: -Why Machiavelli's 'The Prince' was the inspiration for a long list of tyrannies (Stalin had it on his nightstand) Witty, shocking, and instructive,'10 Books That Screwed Up the World' offers a quick education on the worst ideas in human history-and how we can avoid them in the future. Poster Comment: This book. GET IT. (although frankly, it's far too late to "avoid" the aftermath of the institutional sociopaths and insane who now run this world.) Been wondering how this culture, our schools, politicians and Media EVER began accepting and sanctioning evil over good? Insanity over sanity? Have turned our world of morality and ethics upside down? Been wondering how universities and Hollywood were EVER allowed to teach subversion and lies -- and make it seem "normal"? How the type of hateful, counter-intuitive politics that the Democrats routinely support have EVER seen the light of day? Here's a yuge advantage of reading this book: The author has already painstakingly read, critiqued and summarized the "highlights" and its respective 400+ year long message of subterfuge, deception that "normalizes" evil and packs it in these series of "manuals." So now you are able to blow through 15 of the books that have most influenced Democrats, Liberals, Leftist, too many gummint drones in general, BLM, Antifa, the NEA, "Nasty-Women," University-types, and Hollywood-types -- i.e. serial psychopaths, sociopaths, and demon-possessed. For what it's worth, the comments at Amazon are a hoot. Liberal and Commies are screeching bloody h*ll, having had their cover blown.

Where the HELL are the "Holy Books" in all this BULLSHIT? Two good examples are the Holy Bible and the Quran? It is not an arguable point that more wars and human suffering throughout the centuries are based on these two documents.
Whats wrong with the bible? Love thy neighbor and forgiveness is a bad thing? Respect those that deserve respect? Now if you are talking institution of religion then I can see that.
Its great mythology of the early Israelite's after their expulsion from Babylon, isn't it? How many so-called "churches" around the world are there: concerning Christianity? And they all have different bias and prejudice, all invoking the name of: GOD.
There are only 7 or possibly 8 legitimate Churches that exist on Earth today. They are: The Greek Orthodox Church, the Antioch Orthodox Church, the Jerusalem Orthodox Church, The Alexandrian Orthodox Church, the Serbian Orthodox Church, and the Bulgarian Orthodox, and of course (at one time) the Roman Orthodox (or Catholic) Church. But even as we speak, my Church (the Anglican/Episcopal Church is the process of replacing the Roman lampstand. How many of you know that Trump is an Episcopalian now?
George H.W. Bush was an Episcopalian. | Jerome Delay/AFP/Getty Images How many of you know that Trump is an Episcopalian now? Reverend Herbie was an Episcopalian too. Read my lips.
Yes, he was. And until Obama, the majotity of our presidents were Episcopalians. In 2016, the future of our nation hung in the balance. At first I was going to vote for Jeb, but when I figured out that he didn't have a snowvball's chance in hell of winning, I took a chance on Trump, and now he is the 23rd Episcopalian to ride the pale horse. Our future is insured until 2020, but after that it is anybody's guess. The 5th horseman is already waiting in the wings, waiting to take over from the US should the US falter in ruling the Earth for Jesus and the Church.
