Give. Me. A. Break.

I must say that I think it's absolutely ridiculous that all these rumors are spreading about Barack Obama being the "Antichrist". Not only is it just plain ignorant, stupid, and fanatical, it's not fair. Just because the candidate you voted for didn't win doesn't make our President the Antichrist. Don't get me wrong, I think there are a lot of signs that the end of the world is nearing. But to make such an audacious statement about a politician is out of line. I just wonder what happened to supporting the leaders of our country simply because we are American citizens?

I think there were a few other people in recent history that are more worthy of the title Antichrist. Anyone remember Hitler? Stalin? Mao? Give me a break. This doesn't mean that I'm happy about the direction our country may be going, and it doesn't make me an Obama supporter--I'm against Socialism and government handouts as much as the next person. But what I don't support is the rumorous slander that instantly starts spreading amongst dissatisfied election losers who exaggerate the power that Obama will actually have.

If you still believe all this trash about Obama fitting the bill for the Antichrist as supposedly described in the Book of Revelation, read THIS.

Shanna, I totally agree with you, but these rumors and emails were before Obama received the democratic nomination. I guess now that he is the president-elect it was time to resurrect them. I think everyone needs to take the time to read Revelations and see what it really says...

although i as well am not pleased with obama winning, i agree that we need to stand up for America. it was interesting i was listening to the radio the other morning and a lady called in and said she didn't vote for obama, but we have to remember that America united we stand and divided we fall and fall hard. how true that is, we don't need another 9-11. although i joke about moving to london, honestly i am proud to be an american and we need to rally up and show it. thanks for posting this baby!

I agree yo. Remember when "Tich" and "Bon" (names changed for their protection) said that Obama wanted to swear into office on a Koran (which, even if it were true, I would be fine with...because who declared that only Christians can run for office in America?), and were all freaked that small business would die if Obama were elected? The thought of certain small businesses going down was enough to win MY vote. Haha.

I think John McCain said it well in his concession speech: "My former opponent is now my President." That's the way Democracy works here.
