I saw that but I still fail to see how that applies to Bill Gates and the Antichrist..Oh well, I guess I don't need to know anyways. Oh, OK, I see. Hope my Last post wasn't too sarcastic. You have to read the article cited at the beginning of this topic by whoever started this thing. Which wasn't me. I hopped on board just to point out that the cited article didn't say Bill is the antichrist, but that a software monopoly with that kind of centralized control is something that the antichrist would find useful.
The rest of my post was just to point out that, whether you believe the Bible writers were inspired by God or not, they do seem to have been "spot on" (as the Brits would say) in quite a few of their warnings. So maybe we should think about their predictions for what a person or government or business would do with that kind of centralized power. The writers were certainly well-acquainted with absolute dictators and religious intolerance disguised as inclusiveness.
