Scott Lively claims Obama is the "antichrist."

Don't forget, Lively is the guy who wrote a revisionist history book called "The Pink Swastika" that claims German Nazis who committed atrocities were gay.

Scott Lively, the pastor behind anti-gay laws from Uganda to Russia, appeared on TruNews yesterday to reveal to host Rick Wiles the identity of the Antichrist: President Obama. While he refused to mention Obama by name, he said that the Antichrist is the person “heading the largest superpower of the world today.” Lively explained that the Antichrist (read: Obama) will cancel all of the world’s debts in 2015, end the Mideast conflict with a peace treaty between the Israelis and Palestinians and introduce a one-world economic system and secular humanist religion.

be applauding the arrival of the antichrist?

These morons are too stupid to even pretend to understand the fucking book they worship.

Without the antichrist there will be no rapture and without the rapture there will be no second coming.

They really hate it when an atheist tells them how that old time religion is working out for them.

There isn't going to be a "rapture," or an "antichrist," or "tribulation" or Armageddon.

....Revelations refers to the antichrist (aka, the beast) as follows:

"And all the people who belong to this world worshiped the beast."

So, that Scott Lively does not worship Obama therefore proves that Obama is not the antichrist, right? Or is it simply that John of Patmos' proclamation as delivered to him by God was inaccurate.

Is Scott Lively wrong, or is God wrong?

What a conundrum....
