George W. Bush Is the Christian AntiChrist

Void said:
G. Bush has little if anything to do with christianity. He simply needed a group of people to pitch too, inorder to get votes. His options were actually pretty slim, so he went the safe route of going after the christian vote rather then the big-business vote as republicans traditionally tend to do. Doubt he has been to church every sunday of his life, or that he is a high geered re-born in real life.

W got where he is because he combined his fathers wake with his ability to conect with the evangelicals at a level that is above and beyond the rest of his family and most of is very own party outside of a few disorientated individuals like ashcroft.
 
Everything I've read/seen points to W's entire career being based on other people bailing him out of trouble and setting him up as the figurehead for their own agendas. His father, business associates, and most recently Karl Rove. The guy's an empty vessel, and in my opinion people who are as vacuous as an elephant's butt after a quicksilver enema tend to leave the door wide open for 'evil' influences to act through them. The 'anitchrist' may not be one person, but a collective imperial force forseen by revelations , Nostradamus, and the like. By the same token, those same folks saw the second coming of JC to be shortly after the rise to power of the final evil empire...and this could also have been the forseeing of the emergence of a strong, just and peaceful world government....some kind of workable balance of power. 2nd coming=rapid evolution of global consciousness?
Two more terms till 2012.........one more rush towards oil monopoly and missile defense shield, and then we'll see if the Republican military-industrial machine will allow for free elections. Might sound stupid, but look what's happening to the Constitution.

From the armagedon I heard of of... A man will come saying he is the leader, and he will want you to follow him to his temple... Everyone that follows will burn in hell. THe others who didn't follow him find their path to rightousnous!!!

Christianity is a political tool these days to justify so called "morals" behind blindly killing innocent humans just like ourselves, 4 more years of bush it seems..............

Isn't the mayan death day coming up soon?

Good God, i thought i was the only person to have thought of this. I KNOW he is the antichrist....or at least, pure evil.
 
I'd be interested to read what our christian, BL community members think of this. Not so much that Bush is the anti-christ, but rather how you reconcile the gung-ho "smite them" approach with Jesus' teachings.
 
there is no antichrist......Bush is just a "born again"ceo pirate , but it amases me that the people that vouched for him are the same people who believe there ever could be an antichrist, I guess no one wants to die alone.
 
that smite 'em approach aint any sort of christian i know

mr bush kinda strikes me as a bit dumb. and as not really a leader.
im starting to think that the president is not a leader at all, more a conglomerate of the powers that lie beneath him.
he doesnt make any decisions alone, doesnt even write his own speeches.
im sure that all the subjects he reads out has been handed to him seconds b4 getting to the mike.

and hes probably the antichrist. or some equivelent of it.
 
Humanity is quickly approaching rock bottom. When we finally reach the peak of this dark age in our evolution, we will be able to look around and see how voluntary slavery to our fears have buried our greatest hopes for this world. Some will see. Others will keep practicing blood-letting to heal their ailments, like the primitive doctors who used to drain blood from their patients as a cure, only ending up bleeding them to death. In that time ahead, we could only hope that enough of us emerge with open eyes to learn our lesson before we kill ourselves. I believe this critical point in our evolution will be inevitable since humanity has learned its hardest lessons through trial and error.

In the name of progress and freedom we will continue repeating history until we realize that we have merely been going in circles all this time.

As above, so below. Microcosm mirrors macrocosm. People go through the same kind of deep darkness before spiritual awakening, or a big change in their lives for the better. This is that same psychological process that happens to individuals, only on a global scale.

The apocalypse is a human archetype for the stage preceeding rebirth. It can be applied to the individual (ego loss), the world (armageddon), the universe (entropic death)...everything is a cycle, but we tend to see endings as only endings. Nothing ends without something else beginning.

Also, someone mentioned the Mayan Calendar earlier...although it predicts an "end of time", notice that it is also fashioned in a circle, not a line segment.

Well said. I like to compare any kind of personal/social/societal growth to the model of the atom, when an electron is jumping up to a higher valence orbit. Tons of energy given off (heat/light/human conflict) before the ascent to a new level.
 
don't be fearful of christians. their doctrine has advanced the cause of humanity (despite a few hiccups in the middle-ages).

And you should be grateful that christians don't have a philosophy of death requiring non-believers to have their throats cut.
 
Yah it's a good thing that those hangings, burnings, stonings and gilatines where much more humane.

though most of that stopped atleast by the time the british courts got evicted from the U.S. - A unconventional history lesson in our modern court system would proove quite eye opening though only punishable by firing squad, gas chamber, electricution and lethal injection.

How has christianity advanced the cause of humanity? What is your definition of the cause of humanity? And who said anything about fear? As far as these atrocities being "hiccups"...that's like saying that centuries of slavery were only a "speed bump" in the history of our country. Simply because these things happened a long time ago doesn't minimize the brutality and suffering that was advocated by a religious organization that still exists today. It has always been the oppressed that have advanced humanity. Without the oppressed standing up to tyrants, we would have no human rights, or labor rights, or democracy for that matter.

And you should be grateful that christians don't have a philosophy of death requiring non-believers to have their throats cut. [/B]

Considering that the "evangelical vote" wanted to continue the occupation of Iraq, they have moved on to dropping bombs instead of the old-fashioned throat-slitting.

It's kind of ironic because the romans used to torture and kill christians before the religion was adopted in that society, and then they turned around and did the same that was done to them.

Not to group all christians together, I realize that every group is made up of individuals, and many horrific acts of inhumanity have been committed in the name of God, in many religions, at many different times. It just seems that good intentions are easily misconstrued into abominations by any institution.
 
Not at all. Institutionalized religion always makes mistakes. Usually these mistakes go against the actual teaching of the religion, and can develop into atrocities, going against the core beliefs of the religion. According to the core teachings of these religions, love in some form is paramount. Often, these institutions (not religion) is nationalized, and developed into a hierarchical establishment. With these two factors, the religion and state interests become blurred. Christianity is a prominent and accessible form of the institutions of government and religion being synthesized into a conglomerate. Simply because the current "enemy" are terrorists who happen to be of the islamic religion doesn't mean that those individuals are following the core teaching of their religion. Our current "enemies" also rationalize their violence by religion, as we do. However, their reason for their actions are not religious in origin, merely religious in rationale. The people who commit violence against eachother do so because of economic and social reasons. Suicide bombers do not kill because christians are christians. They kill because they feel oppressed and at the mercy of a more powerful force than them. We aren't bombing anyone because they are Islamic. We're bombing them because those in power have convinced the majority of american people that they were the ones who murdered 3,000 Americans on September 11th. What I have been saying is that in the process of rationalizing war in the sole interest of those who profit from the military-industrial complex, Bush has seduced christianity into bed with the state, where it doesn't belong. The phrase "Christian Soldier" can only exist in a metaphorical sense of being a "warrior of love". An actual soldier, who kills people for his profession, is not true to the teachings of Christ as the bible and Nag Hammadi state. They have been duped into thinking that relatively "Satanic" actions are the mandate of God, and the message of the messiah. These poor folks who follow a "false prophet" are destined to suffer, and even die from pledging their lives to their country, instead of their God.
 
Bad news folks, the mayans stated that the world will live on past 2012. What's bugging me isthis whole St Germain 2012 fourth dimension malarky.
