Frederick Johnson - Freeman Moorish Tax Evader

[fortinbras]

The Moorish Science Temple, an all-black cult that shares a history with Farrakhan's Nation of Islam, teaches its adherents that they are Asiatics (not Africans), somehow not American citizens altho nearly all of them were born in the US and never stepped foot out of it, somehow exempted from compliance with all laws (especially taxes and drivers licenses, and apparently also drugs) as a result of a very old treaty between the US and the Barbary States, etc. If this doesn't make a lot of sense, then it doesn't because the cult is somewhat short on paperwork that explains this in detail. It also makes reference to documents that it refuses to show to non-members (especially refuses to show to caucasians) such as "the secret ethical will of Lincoln", the "secret real Thirteenth Amendment" (not the real one about slavery, nor the phantom one about titles of nobility, but a third which was voted down in Congress) and its grimoire "the Holy Koran"- which has a huge number 7 on its cover and bears absolutely no resemblance to what they read in Saudi Arabia.

Following the disappearance of its founder, the Noble Drew Ali, ca. 1928, the cult split into numerous factions, and continues splitting - evidently simply to create fiefdoms for whoever wants to start a congregation.
I caution against consorting with them, even out of intense curiosity.
