And one of the other prophesy's of the end of the world goes something like 'having the beast's mark on their hand or forehead.'

I can't remember exactly, but it was something like that.

Yeah, Pretty Much Narf, I've read the bible once or twice. I think most of this end of the world prophecy stuff is dealt with in New Testament: Revelations... Although don't quote me on that as it's been years

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.

It is along those lines but it is not to be taken literally as if everyone would have markings on their foreheads.

Of course, one can certainly discuss the idea of an absolute world ruler without referencing the antichrist, or misuse the word "antichrist" to mean only an evil dictator. Properly used, "antichrist" adds the idea that this ruler also forces everyone to worship him and deny Christ. This is a concept from the Bible, especially the prophetic and apocalyptic parts.

Maybe for BG, we should use the Islamic term "the Great Satan," which seems to have a broader definition.

Lol the topics been slightly taken off topic It's the natural cycle of OT topics. Born - Discussed - Hijacked - Dies - Hijacked months later with a related argument

I saw that too but any of the Bibles prophecies do not apply to BG anyways so I guess that is why I was wondering.

Back to your regularly scheduled topic now.
