The Antichrist will be popular

To maintain the doctrine of the perpetual virginity of Mary (which holds that Mary remained a virgin even after Jesus' birth and had no more children), Roman Catholics teach James was only a "cousin" of Jesus.

The reality is, the Gospels consistently show that Joseph and Mary had children other than Jesus. For instance, Mark 6:3 says: "Is this not the carpenter, the Son of Mary, and brother of James, Joses, Judas, and Simon? And are not His sisters here with us?"

Again Satan rises up to insult the Woman who will crush his head with Her heal.

The Pharisees who spoke of Christ's EXTENDED FAMILY only wished to identify Christ as a commoner. You need to remember that it would have been impossible for them to think in terms of 'nuclear family' only, since their language only used terms applicable to EXTENDED FAMILY. This means that you never really never understood the Catholic Argument -- because Satan clouded your understanding, or... no, we will stick with the charitable explanation for why you need to be refuted twice in the same mistaken line of reasoning.

Also, it really should matter to you that it is Our Lady Herself who insists on Her Perpetual Virginity. Every time you or another one of you Satanic Prots makes a huge deal out of impuning Her Purity, you pile up fresh Sin that Humanity will have to pay for. And for what purpose? What gratification is there in trying to soil Her Reputation doubly -- making of Her a loose animal and then a liar. Is this who you think gave Birth to Christ? Only Satan would instigate such a campaign when the consequences of the argument only take the Divinity from Christ and makes of Him an ordinary man.

That nation was Rome the EU is the revived Roman empire. All these other people were not the antichrist. Pat Robertson is wrong to say that he will be Jewish. To say these people were him is idiotic because christians will never see him. Or atleast from a pretrib point of view. Also if they were the millenial reign would be going on right now.

The Temple was destroyed twice. Babylon destroyed the Temple built by Solomon.

The Temple Christ knew was nice, but no Solomon's Temple.

There was a lot of Talk about the AntiChrist in the last century. This will sound strange but I think the End Times have been amended. Our Lady of the Rosary at Fatima asked Catholics to pray the Rosary that the severity of the End Times could be mitigated. Well, as disobedient as people usually are, millions of Catholics set up Rosary Circles or started personal devotions. These may have curtailed the Antichrist's career.

Prophecies and what demons were saying in Exorcisms indicated that the Antichrist would have been born in the late 1920's, grow up in the thirties, be a teen in the fourties, a young man in the fifties, come into prominance in the 50's and 60's, and bring the World to a horrible end by about 1985. Didn't happen. Prophecy also leaned in the direction of Nuclear Devastation. Rumor is that Mary intervened to keep the missiles grounded. One of the key commands Mary gave at Fatima was that Russia would have to be consecrated to Her and the Catholic Church, or the World's End would be a terrible one. In the 1980's (sixty years after Fatima) the Catholic Bishops finally scrambled and, irregardless of the wishes of the Soviet Union, conducted a Ceremony which consecrated "Russia" to Our Lady. Apparently the formula worked.

So, the Antichrist that was seen by all the prophecy and demons would now be 75 Years old -- without ever having become prominant. There might still be a huge conflict between Good and Evil, but Evil will be deprived of a hugely popular leader -- unless the Protestants can come up with someone else in a hurry.
