Pope thinks Bush may be the Antichrist
2004-06-20 12:38:02
According to an article in the New Catholic Times, the Pope thinks that George W. Bush may be the Antichrist as depicted in the Book of Revelations.
According to the author of the article, freelance journalist Wayne Madsden, "George W. Bush's blood lust, his repeated commitment to Christian beliefs and his constant references to 'evil doers,' in the eyes of many devout Catholic leaders, bear all the hallmarks of the one warned about in the Book of Revelations -- the anti-Christ."
Of course these are also the hallmarks of many Evangelical Christians, so if that's your criteria for someone being the anti-Christ, you may have set the bar too low. Either that, or there are a whole lot of demons out there who think they're Christians.
