Is the term actually used?

I just did a quick google scholar search, which I realize is not the be all and end all, and have not found any references to this term (used in the context described in the article). Dbrodbeck (talk) 12:43, 15 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

From google scholar you get:

Link by C Townsend - The American Historical Review "Burying the White Gods: New Perspectives on the Conquest of Mexico".

Michael Shermer also claims the ideas are based on psuedoscience see The Skeptic: encyclopedia of Pseudoscience, "white god legends", Michael Shermer, ABC-CLIO, 2002

Nicholas Goodrick-Clarke mentions White Gods in many of his books and how Atlantis and White Supremacists have used it.

Donald Mackenzie an expert on mythology, has written about White Gods
