Email idiocy - it's going to be a long election season

I'm always amazed at what lands in my inbox. The latest -

Trivia question:
How long is the beast allowed to have authority in Revelations?
Guess the answer? Revelations 13:5 tells us it is 42 months. This is almost a four-year term to a Presidency. All I can say is Lord have mercy on us!!!!!!

According to The Book of Revelations the anti-christ will be a man, in his 40s, of MUSLIM descent, who will deceive the nations with persuasive language, and have a MASSIVE Christ-like appeal....the prophecy says that people will flock to him and he will promise false hope and world peace, and when he is in power, will destroy everything.

Is it OBAMA?? I strongly urge each one of you to repost this as many times as you can! Each opportunity that you have to send it to a friend or media outlet...do it! Refuse to take a chance on this unknown candidate who came out of nowhere.

and my response under the Reply All option (you think by now they'd have learned not to include their entire list)

OK, this one has me totally confused.

If God put all that in Revelations, doesn't that mean that voting FOR Obama would be God's Will? And voting against him would be the same as being defiant and not trusting in the God these people are claiming they have great faith in?

The people who sit around and make this shit up are totally mind-boggling. They really have no concept of either logic or irony, do they? By trying to "prove" their faith, they simply betray their lack of any.

Obviously, God wants you to vote for Obama. Or admit that you really have no faith beyond simply mouthing the words.....

1. If the "end timers" want Armageddon,

wouldn't it follow that they'd vote for Obama if they really believed he was the anti-christ, so as to bring it about? Maybe we can use their twisted logic to get some extra votes! :evilgrin:

2. I do so love the

"reply all" option.

I've used it often enough that I almost never get crap of any kind from anyone.

3. Revelation was written 400 years before

.... Islam was even founded. Great guess on their part. :sarcasm:
