"Millennialists through the ages have looked forward to the apocalyptic moment that will radically transform society into heaven on earth.

And all their promises have invariably failed. We tend, therefore, to dismiss these prophets of doom and salvation as crackpots and ..."

"The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, first published in Russia around 1905, claimed to be the captured secret protocols from the first Zionist Congress in Basel in 1897 describing a plan by the Jewish people to achieve global domination. While the document has been proven to be fake, much of it plagiarized from satirical anti-Semitic texts, it had a major impact throughout Europe during the first half of the 20th century, particularly i ..."

Glaber insisted afterward, the year 1000 saw the release of the Antichrist, then
one should expect his defeat three and a half years later.” Perhaps the
Romantics were not wrong, then, to interpret the strikingly new and optimistic
strain in some of the ecclesiastical historiog ..."
