USA: Barack Obama Might Not Be The Antichrist

October 27th 2008 00:45
There's a lot recently about Barack Obama supposedly being the Antichrist, including claims nobody knows anything about his origins. While there may be real concerns about his past, much of what is being written seems to be deliberately misleading.

Now I'm not American, but I did live in Hawaii for six months, and I was of the impression Obama was born in Hawaii on August 4th 1961, his father was a Kenyan and his mother from Kansas. They met when both were students at the University of Hawaii.

Barack Obama


I might be wrong, but I thought he was raised as a Christian (United Church of Christ, I believe), though Africa is largely Muslim (even though his father was apparently not on the scene from the time Obama was 2 years old). Also, he did attend his first four years of school in Indonesia, the world's largest Muslim population.

He also, as far as I know, completed schooling from year 5 through to graduating High School, in Hawaii, before moving to Los Angeles.

So a fair bit about his origins does seem to be known. And there could appear to be a strong Muslim influence, especially the four years in Indonesia during an impressionable time in a child's life. It remains to be seen if this will have any influence on a possible presidency There are no certainties in life.

And of course, the old favourites roll out. The Bible and Nostradamus! The two prophecies everybody misquotes to prove the Antichrist has arrived. Both have a certain credibility, though the same may not be said for many deliberately misquoting these references.

First, there are no references to the Antichrist in Revelation, though there are a few in the Gospels. Second there are no references to Muslims in the Bible. The books of the Bible were mostly completed by the end of the second century. Revelation (the most falsely quoted on this matter) was written in the first century (probably AD 51). Islam was not founded until the sixth or seventh century (Muhammed lived c.570-632)

Nostradamus is deliberately vague, given Nostradamus own concerns over his continued existence if he said anything wrong (he apparently couldn't foresee his own future). They were dangerous times politically then. Nostradamus doesn't make real reference to anything, though there is a certain credibility attached to his writing.

So those claiming to quote these as references are deliberately misleading the masses with false information, claiming to expose a false prophet or a false Messiah.

There seems a certain irony in that.

American politics is mostly about image, isn't it? And whoever has the best PR (and money) working for them to finely-tune every move? It is hard to fathom how grown-up people could still be convinced by character assasinations. Both Obama and McCain come across as concerned and trustworthy, when you hear them talk, and those characteristics would be almost impossible to maintain in the closing stages of a gruelling campaign trail if they were not genuine.

Speaking of Barack Obama:

Barack Obama is a racial-minority individual, and in his heart and mind he inevitably does not endorse hate crimes committed by George W. Bush.

George W. Bush committed hate crimes of epic proportions and with the stench of terrorism (indicated in my blog).

George W. Bush did in fact commit innumerable hate crimes.

And I do solemnly swear by Almighty God that George W. Bush committed other hate crimes of epic proportions and with the stench of terrorism which I am not at liberty to mention.

Many people know what Bush did.

And many people will know what Bush did—even to the end of the world.

Bush was absolute evil.

Bush is now like a fugitive from justice.

Bush is a psychological prisoner.

Bush has a lot to worry about.

Bush can technically be prosecuted for hate crimes at any time.

In any case, Bush will go down in history in infamy.

I am not sure where I had read it before, but anyway, it is a linguistically excellent statement, and it goes kind of like this: “If only it were possible to ban invention that bottled up memories so they never got stale and faded.” Oh wait—off the top of my head—I think the quotation came from my Lower Merion High School yearbook.
