According to some Christian radio dickweed, Obama may be the Antichrist. Of course, he's basing this speculation on the belief that Obama is the man who will finally bring peace to the middle east. Need any more evidence that Christians are fools? I seem to recall that certain Republicans might have spread similar rumors some months ago. Fucking morons. Can you imagine living in that kind of hysteria and fantasy? I wish I could find a clip of the argument he made. It was hair raising!

I can absolutely imagine it... I did a lot of LSD in the 90s. :D
Seriously, though, he's just looking for ratings. I mean, sure, he's a nutter. He's a Christian radio dickweed. Nutter is par for the course. He's just trying to rile the masses, that's all. Still... dickweed.

I've come to view "antichrist" as a compliment...they tend to apply it to anyone who is willing to think outside a narrow fundamentalist mindset yet is still able to serve as an inspiration to others.

Let the dickweeds ramble...besides Kyu and laetus are right, I think the term antichrist is like a compliment. If he is the anti- opression, bloodshed, contradictory, mind-fucking...then GREAT!!!

The cult I was raised in held this idea as a core belief. It frustrated the hell out of me because it prevents a practical solution from ever being accepted or taken seriously. Pair this up with the belief that only the "messiah" can bring peace in Israel and the mindset becomes completely defeatist.
"We're going to fight about something, and the only one who can stop us is God; anyone else who tries is the devil."
Because that's a method for success right there...

Don't they (Christians and whatnot)in a way want the antichrist to come? like so the rapture comes and then they get to go Home? Maybe that's just a Mormon thing. I was in a nativity scene run by mormons this passed Christmas (don't ask why) and they seemed all excited for the end of the world.

I have to admit, I almost posted the same question a while ago. Now that it's been asked, I just have to say I was really wondering the same thing.

hahahah...yeah... Well, I have a mormon friend (more like a thousand but I'm closest with her) who invited me and bunch of other friends to go Caroling For Cans. Then we found out that there was gonna be a live nativity scene so we're just like, eh why not. We were all excited about the caroling more than anything.
The caroling turned out to last twenty minutes and nativity scene lasted over an hour. She convinced two of our friends (both atheists, haha) to be in it. They dressed up as "everyday people". They looked so ridiculous, so of course I HAD to get in on that action. So I dressed up and sang hymns with like thirty other "everyday people". My mormon friend was playing the flute for one song. I held her music when she played cause there were no stands (and tripped on the microphone cord
)
