1. I'm Confused.
And then again, Pat Robertson probably thinks the pope is the antichrist. Just who is right here? LOL

6. If that's the case, then somebody needs to inform those priests/bishops
Edited on Sun Oct-17-04 09:55 PM by demo@midlife
who are trying so hard to re-elect Bush by being so vehemently against Kerry!

There's a little inconsistency going on here...

BTW, I think the Pope is onto something - I've had thoughts similar to his on this subject!

8. There have been
several articles on the matter over the past couple of years. The Vatican has been very discreet during its investigations, but there has been talk.

3. That article seems to be heavily edited...
here's a link to what I think is the full article, plus a short bio on Wayne Madsen...

4. William Madsen-Capitol Hill Blue...for real?
...well, I'd like to think that the Pope would come out with something along these lines. That would be the conclusion of all conclusions to this strange election cycle. However, the reporter is also the one who claimed * was having mood swings and taking heavy-duty psychiatric medication. Nice try but no proof forthcoming. He's connected with "fromthewilderness.com" and seems to have a very good imagination. Fun stuff, however.

7. Many of the characteristics as mentioned in Revelation are there...
But the fact that Dub is a moron doesn't measure up to the prophesied character of the Antichrist.

Though Dub and his henchmen ARE canniving, and certainly in an evil way, and they ARE bloodthirsty--both the "religious right" and the Neo-Cons meet that classification--as does Cheney. And Dub DOES claim that God speaks through him and to him regularly--all prophesied characteristics of the Antichrist, together with Dub's EXTREME effort to develop a religious-like cult of personality around him. Coupled with many evil characters in the media supporting him (Little Oral Annie, Oxyrush, O'Rapist and Sarcastic Sean of course come to mind here most prominently). And, to boot, his mother is as vengeful and evil as they come!:eyes:

Really, he meets the "Almost-Antichrist", or "Forerunner", cateogries of people like Hitler and Stalin--and Osama--closer in this regard, to me. In any case, Dub is one sick, schizophrenic dude!

B-)

10. I was sure the Pope was exagerating
Edited on Sun Oct-17-04 10:16 PM by JohnyCanuck
Then I came across this web site:

He snorted cocaine ... He dodged the draft....His friends knew him as an alcoholic womanizer with a bad temper....a failure at business until his wealthy friends rescued him......then recently he was elected Governor of Texas.........he still couldn't think his way out of a burning phone booth without the advice of his staff .....and yet suddenly he's become our most celebrated presidential candidate, with the Republican nomination all but sewn up before a single ballot has been cast ....

...... How has He done it?

I submit that George Walker Bush is the

ANTI-CHRIST !

11. rather an overestimation of the lil creep eh?
the catholic church reputedly has the best intell gathering on earth, even the cia/old kgb etc had nothing on the church....so that suggests they know exactly what happened in the 2k election, and the reason for 911.....tens of thousands of people have died or been maimed etc by bushinc; it has laid the grounds for future religious hate conflicts and so on....but the pope did nothing to slow or stop them. bush aint the anti christ, he's a common thief and mass murderer, bushinc let america suffer its worst attack while in control of the machinery of defense; there are men in the RC church who know what's going on, by remaing silent they help the busheviks (like they sorta helped the nazis in 1920's 30's)
the pope's a righist, he thinks the poor are pitiful, and ignores the terrible crimes of the powerful against them

12. Well Catholic church seems like it has a Vote Bush sign on the
royal chair!!! If the Pope feels this way then why is Burke and friends saying Vote Bush

Like I said before the Pope is feeble and who really is in control of the Vatican... thats the ???

14. Pope John Paul was one of the strongest critics of the Iraq War
Even more openly critical than Chirac.

17. The Church has never revealed the 3rd Prophecy of Fatima
Maybe it says something that gives the Pope grounds for his fears.

Personally, I think it makes sense to have the Antichrist come from the richest, most "powerful" nation on earth (though that power appears to be mainly just coasting on reputation now, but who doesn't coast on their reputation? Look at Harvard, Napoleon, and Shakespeare).

Certainly Bush's recent world antisemitism monitoring order is a very weird thing, and carries whispers of apocalyptic import.

Mark my words. Look for the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem to be destroyed. That is the irrefutable key that the world-historical bubble gum is about to hit the fan (to paraphrase Arnold Jackson of "Diff'rent Strokes").
