I'm not a religious scholar. Please enlighten me a bit further, Aneeshm. Are you basically saying Christ and the anti-Christ are flip sides of the same coin?

You can think of anti-Christ as the embodiment of all mankind's flaws towards God. Christ represent God's will and good, while anti-Christ represent Satan's and our ego's will.

Those robots won't be so alien if the U.S. military continues its AI and robotics programs at the rate they're going. Heh. Skynet might not be a fiction limited to James Cameron's mind after all if the next 10 to 20 years continue as they are now, development-wise.

With peace reigning and suffering minimalized by a man, then what need will men have of God ? That's the way i'd see it going, subversion rather then outright destroying.

As for the ending all evil, i don't believe that mankind is interested in that and we will accept suffering somewhere as part and parcel of being alive.

Mankind doesn't accept a little bit of suffering as a part of a good life. Life is better then ever, overhere in Holland. We're richer then ever, we have better healthcare. We have are gadgets. And people complain more then ever before.
We are afraid for all risks. The american way of sueing is coming to Europe as well. Sue everybody and everything that did you even the slightest bit of harm.

The more comfortable man is, the less harm it can accept.

The understanding of one person being 'the' Antichrist appears to be combined in 1 John with the idea of a class of persons. There John speaks of "many antichrists" who embody the spirit of the antichrist 1 John 4:3).

Apparently a lot of us are antichrists though

1 John 2:221 John 2:22
Who is the liar? It is the man who denies that Jesus is the Christ. Such a man is the antichrist—he denies the Father and the Son.

Christ is just Greek for Messiah/Moshiach/annointed one.

If Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson is the Messiah, as a minority within Chabad still claim, well ..............

You can put me down as a supporter of the anti-christ then. In fact, given what I linked in the other Jesus thread, you can probably put Jesus down as an anti-christ (if he existed and is responsible for the statements in question).

On the other hand, I'm pretty sure that the anti-christ is Sir Alex Ferguson...

Funny I was thinking of Hilary Clinton. I dont understand why women have been kept "down on the farm" wrt supernatural evil. I'm fairly sure she has an "evil influence". Look at how badly she effected Bill. When they met, he was a card-carrying southern baptist of true intentions.
