Og, anybody can say the Bible is wrong, just as anybody can say the Bible is right. I made this thread only to establish a hypothetical argument on how Barack Obama fits the description of the AntiChrist described in the Bible and not in a "vague, subjective" way and for members here to humor the prophecy for sake of discussion.

Despite our differences in beliefs, I absolutely agree with what you said in the 2nd quote.

There's many different sites you can go to and see for yourself, the many things that are being discovered.
Sorry buzz. Even though I'm all for establishing the authenticity of some aspects of the Bible while at the same time debunking the myths of the book, by the name of that site, it's obviously biased. Not to say that some, not to mention all of the "finds" have the possibility of being legit, but if you want to prove the Bible through archaeological means, you may want to cite a non religious source.
