Creativity

Creativity, sometimes known as the Creativity Movement, is a fake religion created by white supremacist Ben Klassen in the 1970s as a different way to spread common white supremacist concepts. It is based on the claim that the white race is "nature"s highest creation." Creativity originally took form as a group started by Klassen, the Church of the Creator, which was revived as the World Church of the Creator by Matt Hale several years after Klassen"s death. After Hale lost a trademark lawsuit over the group"s name, it was changed to the Creativity Movement in the early 2000s.
