A Day In The Lounge - Tuesday, July 8th, 2003

Welcome to The Lounge! I’ve always gotten a laugh out of reading the many Anti-Christ theories floating around the internet so for the past several weeks I’ve post one each time I post the daily thread. Today, in addition to selecting a new Anti-Christ of the day, I’ll have some fun with the news software and post DU’s 1st ever daily thread quiz.

Anti-Christ of the Day-

Ronald Reagan


Reagan was the Anti-christ, and he knew what we had never considered...that the best way to discredit God, to keep the 2nd coming from occuring was to read ahead in the script and not do what it says to do.

Don't rebuild the temple on the mount. Don't walk in and declare yourself a god among men.

JUST SAY NO to PROPHESY and the PROPHESY WONT COME TRUE.

And when the man, the actor, the empty shell had served its usefulness, the demonic being that was the spawn of Lucifer left the body of Ronald Wilson Reagan, and today that shell lies alone in a hospital and Nancy holds its hand praying to a darker god that her husband will find his way back from hell to take back his life and body.

Quote of the Day-

All human actions flow from consciousness. World peace, therefore, can only be established on a foundation of "the consciousness of the oneness of humankind" -- harmony of races, religions, and nations. All peace-building policies and instruments depend on this.

Alain Locke
