Is George Bush The Anti-christ?

No I dont' think so, but it brings up an interesting idea. If you're not religious, you think its poppycock, anyway. If you are, think about where the anti-christ would logically come to power. In the the most powerful country in the world, right? Its the only way he could establish a sufficient power base to pull off the stuff described in Revelations at this time. If your one of those who think the end times are nigh, that is food for thought.

I know very little about the anti christ, but i've heard that one of the characteristics is that everyone will "love" him...thinking he's the best thing since the internet...
george doesn't quite fit that image. :)
on the other hand, if he plunges us into a third world war in the middle east....that might be the armaggedon event........

i tend to think the anti christ is a thing more than a person....
like the internet...we all think it is really super, but it's also potentially dangerous to our privacy (like in the book, "1984")
another one is inserted microchips....put them in your kids to be able to track them if someone grabs them....sounds great, but none of us would enjoy having someone able to track us all the time.
it could be plain old science/technology....certainly, we all love the things it gives us...but now we're heading into deep waters with cloning, etc.

The Anti Christ is the fountain of youth.

It is immortality.

It would be the perception that there is no need for GOD.

P.S.
Don’t hold me to this one. I am just guessing.. :)

I read in the Dallas paper that a fellow has written a book about a similar topic. He wonders if the "Rapture" hasn't already happened and we are what is left afterwards. All the good people are already gone. Not a believer so I would be left (always a leftist anyway). I imagine it would be interesting to those who like to debate the various editions of the bible anyway. Look in todays Dallas Morning times.

I am thinking that, in such a divisive society, this will never happen.

If there is such an entity, it is within us. All of us. Hopefully, good triumphs over the Dark Side. I am optimistic.

Wouldn't the anti-Christ if taken literally, be a non Christian? GW is a born again Christian. Maybe it is an aethiest, a muslim or a jew.

Good grief, I said it in jest, maybe I was more insightful than I realized. I'll have to post this one on the breech & run it past the right wing rednecks.

Tom,
What better disguise than claim to be pure of heart and soul, can you see in to peoples hearts and know their minds? I've always figured if there ever really was an anti-Christ the he would come in the form of a religious leader of some form. Maybe Beddows is right.

Makes for interesting reading. In fact it was so interesting that I only read a few good spots and saved the rest for sometime when I get bored. They had to reach out pretty far to make some of the 666 connections. That was my outstanding observation but then again I just skipped through it quickly. I'm not a religious person so I'm not worried about him hijacking my faith but more than sometimes I have to wonder about his own religious connection. Is it sincere? He's a politician and they will resort to any means to get votes. Is he really religious? Politics requires lying,back stabbing, and a whole lot of things that conflict with being religious.
I had a person who is involved in politics in a much lower level than the national kind tell me two years ago that he had to do things that went against his policy of honesty when he wore his political hat. This caused him a lot of pain and he had a problem with it. He with out going into great detail told me that politics was ruthless and inherently dishonest and corrupt even at lower levels. :rolleyes:

Tom "Wouldn't the anti-Christ if taken literally, be a non Christian?"

It is generally described as a false prophet, one who corrupts the Christian faith. So he would appear to be Christian.

There are so many of those around it's hard to believe.
