Kurt Saxon - Beliefs

Beliefs

Saxon is fond of describing contemporary society as a "Disneyland for Dummies" and predicts civilization's imminent collapse. When that occurs, only those who are prepared and rooted in practical knowledge—as opposed to any particular political or religious ideology—will survive. Saxon sees his mission as collecting and disseminating such knowledge and thereby ensuring the survival of the "best of our species."

Despite joining with the political right on many issues, Saxon has often announced his support for abortion and often spoke about his atheistic views.

Recently Saxon wrote several scathing attacks on Islam, which he outspokenly denounced as a primitive and barbaric religion and an enemy of civilization. Saxon derides Muslims as people of low intelligence with a violent agenda towards all outsiders.

Saxon claims to have coined the term "survivalist". Survivalism predicts the collapse of society and advocates preparedness measures necessary to survive the ensuing chaos. He has written various survivalist and paramilitary books, including his well known The Poor Man's James Bond series. These publications include a range of tips and instructions, from how to slash budgets and cut down on bills to recipes for both medicines, poisons and blueprints for weapons.

He was the host of a shortwave radio show that aired on WRNO. Until recently Saxon continued writing and posting his articles on a web page maintained by an assistant, but he no longer teaches or speaks. He owns a house in Alpena, Arkansas where he resided until his age and declining health forced him to enter an assisted care facility.
