And people dont understand why I say the orange clown is an Antichrist and may be the Antichrist.

The doomed by a perfect circle is very disturbing accurate.

Came here to share the same article.

It's truly uncanny

I reckon it has a lot to do with personality traits of evil people

Yeah, while there are a few odd specifics that line up, most of the predictions are just describing the personality traits of a tyrant.

If someone asked me what Trump sounded like I would never think about a lion. His voice is nasally and weak. That part reminded me a lot more of Hitler yelling into a microphone

Ehh, isn't the antichrist supposed to be a nearly impossibly attractive person, in charisma and looks? A lot of people either hate him or are entirely indifferent and the reasons don't seem to be religiously motivated.

I just settle with him being a douchebag.

Premillennial dispensationalism/rapture theology is a group creative writing exercise with little relevance to the text. The prophecies in Daniel refer to the Greek king Antiochus, which is clear when one reads chapters and not verses (unfortunately uncommon in your typical Protestant church…) Revelation is referring to emperor Nero.

Really, it’s more that folks like Hal Lindsey popularized the concept by traumatizing children in church basements that’s given it the culture cachet.

Don’t forgot about how all his weird followers depict him in their fan art though…. They seem to at least perceive him as exactly that.
