Rainbow Swastika?!?!?

I found something on the web that seems like the rantings of a conspiracy theorist but is also pretty well put together. It claims there's a New Age goal to rid the world of the Jews. Is anyone familiar with this?

Not worth the waste of bandwidth. The links are all to the authors own pages on that site (which appears to be registered strangely - the usual whois doesn't find it..), with lots of unattributed claims like the "new age hierarchy" is out to get Jews as the "Fourth Power Source". Looks like a variant of the usual New World Order rant. The Internet Cabal will take care of it.(TINC) {for more info, see the 3rd FAQ at http://www.ie.lspace.org/faqs/lspace-faq.g.html }

Thanks. I looked at a bit more of it and while she is citing quite a few sources her ideas just get so far off the wall. She begins with some very strong quotes but the way she ties it together is nuts. I'm not sure if that's her site. The book is hosted in a few places as she leaves it without copyright in order to reach as many people as possible This is the google page that lists all of the places it's hosted:

http://www.google.com/search?client=...UTF-8&oe=UTF-8

I tried to find some sites refuting her claim and couldn't find anything, which I thought was odd. Could be because this is such inconsequential material. You wouldn't happen to know of any links to any legitimate New Age sites that cover the same type of material, would you?

I'd say that was almost certainly the case.

As for New Age beliefs in general - my impression is that these tend to be very varied and personal anyway - very much a case of "pick and mix your own theological ideas into whatever you want", though with a general liberal/hippy feel.

Then again, even Charles Manson hung out with the hippies in the heart of San Francisco. I wouldn't use him as a guide to the beliefset of Haight Asbury in 67 either.
