The Antichrist is the greatest deceiver of all time. The Bible indicates he will even pretend to be religious. In fact, he will ultimately pretend to be God, and be worshipped as God half way through the Apocalypse. More than any other president Bush wears his religion on his sleeve - both for political gain, and to deceive the world. Presidential assistant David Kuo quit his post because he was convinced that Bush had deceived conservative Christians.

Bush says that God (rather than the Supreme Court) chose him to lead the nation, and he sees himself on a divine mission. Bush told an Amish group in Pennsylvania that "God speaks through me." Another story that ran in the Israeli newspaper Haaretz tells how Bush had told Middle East leaders that " God told me to strike at al Qaeda and I struck them, and then he instructed me to strike at Saddam [ Hussein], which I did”

What's important about these voices Bush is hearing, which are effectively telling him to go kill people, is that Jesus consistently taught his disciples to overcome evil with good, rather than with bombs and bullets and violence, and, "all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword." (Mat 26:52)

It is eminently reasonable to assume that the voices Bush is hearing are not coming from God at all, but from Satan. It is also reasonable to assume that the devil does not desire peace, but war, death, and destruction. Why is it that when ordinary citizens hear voices telling them to go kill people, we lock them up for the safety of themselves and the community? Yet when Bush hears voices telling him to kill, many evangelical/fundamentalist Christians rejoice, and pretend he was chosen by God.

Along with hearing voices, the degradation of his cognitive and verbal skills has been striking, when compared with where he was just ten years ago.

“Worried White House aides paint a portrait of a man on the edge, increasingly wary of those who disagree with him and paranoid of a public that no longer trusts his policies in Iraq or at home. It reminds me of the Nixon days,” says a longtime GOP political consultant with contacts in the White House. “Everybody is an enemy; everybody is out to get him. That’s the mood over there.” In interviews with a number of White House staffers who were willing to talk off the record, a picture of an administration under siege has emerged, led by a man who declares his decisions to be doing “God’s will” and then tells aides to “**** over” anyone they consider to be an opponent of the administration."

In another much-under-reported story, a very prominent Washington psychiatrist Dr. Justin Frank has diagnosed Bush as a very paranoid and sadistic megalomanic. In his new book, Bush on the Couch: Inside the Mind of the President, he writes that Bush's years of heavy drinking "may have affected his brain function" and he "fits the profile of a former drinker whose alcoholism has been arrested but not treated." His diagnosis? "Our sole treatment option -- for his benefit and for ours -- is to remove President Bush from office . . . before it is too late." Unfortunately, Democrats have taken impeachment off the table - at least for now. Dr. Frank's conclusions have been praised by other prominent psychiatrists, including Dr. James Grotstein, Professor at UCLA Medical Center, and Dr. Irvin Yalom, MD, Professor Emeritus at Stanford University Medical School.

Bush seems to have fooled a lot of people into believing he really is God. One man in Florida said what may people on the religious right are saying, "this is the first time I felt God was in the White House." There is even a website dedicated to his worship called "Bush IS LORD". How's that for an abomination?

(Some have e-mailed me to say that Bushislord.com is only a parody site. but the Bible says that the Antichrist will be worshiped as God, whether seriously or not. See below for the more serious Bush worshippers. As far as Bush not being the Antichrist because he's not very popular around the world, that mistake stems from a confusion over the antichrist as a system of values vs. the Antichrist as an individual. American culture is still very popular around the world, even though Bush is very unpopular. If the singular Antichrist was popular and beloved all around the world, how do you explain the battle of Armageddon, when the Antichrist will be violently opposed and overthrown by the rest of the world?)

Chuck Baldwin is founder and pastor of Crossroads Baptist Church in Pensacola, Florida. He has a daily syndicated radio talk show on the Genesis Communications Network called “Chuck Baldwin Live” Chuck says: “many people attribute to Bush god-like qualities, which actually makes him a better candidate than Clinton was…I do believe that Bush possesses more deceptive qualities than Clinton did and, therefore, is more dangerous...one of the chief characteristics of the coming antichrist is that he appears "as an angel of light...Bush' s acceptance by the overwhelming majority of Christian people proves the country is ready for the Antichrist."
