Maybe, maybe not, but I think it must be a person (actually satan behind it but anyways) who forces the mark of the beast on people, a world leader. The "Babylon" described in Revelations is probably the U.S., but of course that could be wrong.

Well, I've always been quite liberal, and as an adult, I have only attended churches with a liberal perspective, but I left our local Unitarian Universalist Church, a couple of years ago (well, 9 years ago, actually), when our interum pastor suggsted that we were probably all at least a little bit worried that Y2K would be "the end of times". . . . sheesh!

Read "Left Behind", by Tim LaHaye & Jerry B. Jenkins...it will help you understand why you don't want to be left behind when the Rapture happens!

Strange. Very strange.
Thank you! As a Republican and an evangelical I really don't mind being called names!

And, I do support McCain because he shares most of my beliefs on both moral and ethical issues.

I don't believe that bo is the anti-christ...just a very charismatic person who speaks well and says nothing! He is full of hopeful platitudes and speaks in generalities! Nothing specific. He has a lot of you fooled, and by way indoctrination you've all fallen for it hook, line and sinker!
