OK, which one is the anti-Christ? Bush, or Cheney?
Bush spouts that holier than thou religious goo while breaking every "thou shalt not" in the book - a handy skill for covering up one's status as the anti-Christ.

Cheney is really, seriously, deeply evil. That certainly fits the image of the anti-Christ.

The two come so close to fitting the profile that I can't figure out which one is actually, you know, him (it, or whatever).

I need some help identifying the anti-Christ, DUers!

:think:

1. How about Moon? He was confirmed as the Messiah on the
Senate office building last April, you know (not in a Senate meeting)

3. Didn't Moon originate in the Middle East; the purported location of
the antichrist?

2. Cheney

The man just oozes evil. He gives me the willies.


Bush is just too f*cking stupid to be the anti-Christ.


Cheers!

5. both are poster boys for anti-christ corp
cheney's aura is likened to the miasma of fog, it just keeps rolling with him everywhere he goes...bush is living in his own world on the set of the Twilight Zone.

21. Yes, there will be antichrists
has in plural, more then one.

Basically an antichrist is the embodiment of dark energy and there have been many people in history who fit the description. We just seem to have an overabundance of them in the Bush misadministration.

BTW: Welcome to DU :hi:

7. Ok, back when I went to church, before the fundies took over
I seem to remember (I think) that the anti-Christ will supposedly suffer a serious head wound. Supposedly, he will appear to have died, but miraculously recovers. After that, his power over the people really kicks in.

Does anyone recall this in the Bible somewhere? I'm stale on the subject matter.

9. That might explain bush's total stupidity
I could totally believe he was dropped on his head at one point,
but as to your question... I haven't heard that (but I also haven't been to church since I was about 6)

18. This is the verse that I was talking about
And the beast which I saw was like a leopard, and his feet were like those of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. And the dragon gave him his power and his throne and great authority. 3 And I saw one of his heads as if it had been slain, and his fatal wound was healed. And the whole earth was amazed and followed after the beast," (Rev. 13:2-3).

8. A PUPPET CAN BE SCARY BUT BEWARE THE PUPPET MASTER
I humbly offer from a post of mine to BUZZ-FLASH

SIMULATED REALITY - WHITE HOUSE STYLE Nov 18


from my post:

I feel for the "W" I mean, he really is a pawn. His meager intellect is no match for the Magnificent Malevolence of the Evil Puppet-Master, Cheney, or for the sly and subtle machinations of Karl Rove (who outwitted the redoubtable Mr. Fitzgerald, no less). (I mean, Rove CREATED George W, out of various political parts: theocratic totalitarianism, anti-individual liberty hypo-C(h)ri(s)tians (who would have the government assert authority over people in the most private and personal matters of their life), gayophobic ignoranceophiles (“The liberals are gonna make you hold hands with a homo! – yeah, they are!”) to name a few.) I guess that makes Rove the Dr. Frankenstein of politics (“He’s Alive, He’s Alive!”)

And therein lies the problem. When the people who are really responsible for policies are moving quietly, unobserved, in the legal shadows behind the scenes, they are more likely to act irresponsibly and with reckless disregard for the consequences of their acts. The lack of accountability leads to reckless behavior in people and in Governments. And if there is one thing the Evil Puppet Master and Dr. Rovenstein are not burdened with, it’s a conscience. And with the Puppet they have inoculated themselves to accountability. They do not make for a comely couple.

25. Exactly. Chaney's the anti-Christ and Bush is his puppet.
The anti-Christ would rather be in charge than in front.

12. When Bush first ran for President.
Felt something weird going on in the party - abnormal. Didn't want any part of it. Was already REALLY pissed off and sick at all the whack jobs turning extreme right who allowed NO dissent (sound familiar?). Couldn't stand 'em anymore.

But I still register Republican to get their goat. I like to tell 'em I vote straight party Democrat. You should hear them scream! LOL!

13. Ok, I am not completely sure of the details,
but I was of the understanding that before the rise of the anti-Christ would first come a false prophet. That is the part that creeps me out.

15. Mystery of the Unholy Trinity
The 3-way shared anti-Christ lineup credits are as follows:

Cheney as the father of blessed torture,
Bush as the son of the whited sepulchre,
and,
Pat Robertson as himself (aka: garden variety Pharisee)

16. The Anti-Christ claims to be "of the church" but is "of Satan". Also the
Bible says there have already been many antichrists (old testament somewhere). There will be many in the future. Ergo: Moon, Bush, etc.

17. Neither.
There is no "Anti-Christ" nor will there be. They are just bad people, plain and simple.

22. Neither is sophisticated enough.
From my knowledge, Satan is not binary or tunneled in his vision, nor is he ethnocentric or geographically imperial.

Sorry, but those two clowns will be run of the mill boulder pushers in hell.

23. Why does it have to be one person?
Why couldn't it be a whole party of...or a specific group?? Perhaps it takes many evil persons working together to gain the status the "Anti-Christ" deserves......

27. Not sure either of them is actually the antichrist, but
bushco's criminal cabal sure proves that evil is a real force in our world.

28. Cheney-it fits with my Reagan 666 theory
There are two beasts in Rev. 13. One is the 666 beast, the other is the dragon who is the power behind the first. The 666 beast (Reagan) is a figurehead to be worshipped, the other beast is the power that makes it what it is.

I'm kidding, but I do point out the Reagan/6 letters in each name to fundies when they talk about the "end times".
