Now I don't believe a word of the Bible, but this guy checks off so many anti-Christ boxes it's getting harder and harder to see how the people who do believe that stuff don't see it.

My wife sent me a great article on this that was originally written in 2019 but is now even more relevant. I thought it was a fun read at first but as I kept going it started to actually unsettle me a bit https://www.benjaminlcorey.com/could-american-evangelicals-spot-the-antichrist-heres-the-biblical-predictions/

Isn't that part of the story tho? That he tricks believers?

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 22 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

False believers, whose faith is shallow and performative, or against the teachings of Christ (like, for example, the prosperity gospel). Real big "sucks to suck" energy in Revelations.

Not that they were tricked specifically that they weren't tricked, that they simply chose to follow and bore his mark.

[–] Snowclone@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

'Trick' requires some form of effective deception. That's not what's happening, the are just evil ass people who are voting for evil ass shit. They know what he claims and take him seriously enough to kill people about it.

the most hardcore believers are the ones who love trump the most.

But given that basically none of these people have read a bible in their life, it's understandable that they don't see the signs of their own religion.

Or maybe they are super into the anti-christ. who knows

Bibles are for hitting your enemies over the head with, not reading.
