Meet Al-Mahdi (the antichrist?)
I stumbled upon this book written by Joel Richardson that does an exhaustive comparison of the Christian beliefs about the antichrist and Muslims belief of their messiah called Al-Mahdi. The similarities are very close and the book offers a strong case that Islam is potentially the one world religion spoken of in Daniel & Revelations. I highly recommend that you read this book if you are at all interested in this type of subject matter (or even if you are not). You can read it for free online if you don't want to buy it at

Many of you may have noticed that Al-Mahdi is whom Iran�s president Ahmadinejad has been speaking of lately. His belief is that he must bring about worldwide destruction & chaos in order to cause the Al-Mahdi (the hidden Imman) to return out of hiding and take his place as the head of the Islamic Caliphate (Islamic papacy previously abolished in 1924).

'The Sentinel' was the newsletter of one of those backwater, inbred US christian secular cults wasnt it, mormons, 7th dayers, Jehovah's witlessness or something? [/shrug]
Whether you are a believer in any religion or not, the next great war will be a Clash Of Civilizations between Muslims, Christians, and Atheists. Contrary to what people claim, most western countries are outright atheist just by the doctrine of church and state, which I believe to be a religious doctrine in it's own sense.
The religion of the West is materialism. The West is viewed by traditional muslims as decadent, sinful, and evil. Additionally, Western nations have Christian backgrounds, making the West nothing but infidels in their eyes. They claim moral superiority, while we claim material, and both are right. And with God on your side, you can't be wrong.
The grievances are well beyond our troops being in Saudi Arabia, it has now become a war of ideologies as Mr. Bush has stated before. We cannot negotiate, because their ultimate goal is a global caliphate free of infidels. It is their version of Heaven on Earth. You can compare it to the Christian belief in a heavenly walled city of New Jerusalem as their messianic goal. Fortunately, in the Christian religion, they wait for Jesus to come and bring this kingdom to earth, while I believe the Mahdi has to be initiated in through chaos.
Anyone who knows anything about the bible knows that Revelations was written to a first century church who expected the imminent return of their savior. It refers to things that have long since passed. Although yes it is valid to use 'antichrist' as an archetype with Imperator Nero being the first.
Hmm, i thought Muhammad was Allah's last messenger and profit. Its all in the Koran, 1st pillar the Testimony of Faith (Shahadah), rule numero uno. To believe in some "new" messiah would be sacrilege.
...geez i thought everyone knew that.
