Trump Dump: Peter Thiel Wonders if Greta Thunberg is the Antichrist

The antichrist comes to power by talking constantly about Armageddon, about rumors of war. and scaring you into giving him control over science and technology.

In the 17th, 18th century, the Antichrist would have been a Dr. Strangelove, a scientist who did all this sort of evil crazy science. In the 21st century, the Antichrist is a Luddite who wants to stop all science. It’s someone like Greta or Eliezer.

I don’t think even someone like Bill Gates, who I think is a very, very awful person, is remotely able to be the antichrist.

There are a lot of rational reasons I can give why the one-world state’s a bad idea. Turn the planet into a prison. I think the tax rates would be very high. But I think if you strip it from the biblical context, you will never find it scary enough. You will never really resist.

    I’ve been out of Christianity for about 15 years now (I’m 67 years old). The whole “Antichrist” thing is one of the persistent theological residuals that still lingers from time to time in my head (Along with: Are my deceased parents looking down at me from above with either approval or disapproval? As well as: Was that most recent earthquake / hurricane / drought evidence of divine judgement?) Some things take FOREVER to shake.

    Speaking of the Antichrist, if there were one, I suspect the perfect candidate is someone perhaps / maybe / possibly idolized by Peter Thiel. Of course, I’m not suggesting any names….

    Tie between Putin and Trump for that honorary title.

    I’d say the MAGA movement members individually and collectively qualify as anti-Christ. Last time I read the Gospels, Jesus was telling people to be kind and help each other.

    Peter Thiel has way too much time on his hands, allowing him to go far into the rabbit hole of conspiracy theories. Even the intelligent are not immune from falling prey to conspiracy theories.

    If Peter Thiel had really read up on his Bible , he would have realized that there is no way Greta Thunberg would be the Antichrist. There are several reasons for this. One reason is that from what the indications are in Revelation Chapter 13, the Antichrist or Beast is male. That leaves Greta Thunberg out. Also, from what some prophecy scholars believe, the Antichrist or Beast will come from the territory of the former Roman Empire. The Roman Empire never included Sweden. However , Greta Thunberg, in ways none of us could yet imagine, could turn out to be the woman in Revelation Chapter 17, who sits on a scarlet beast, full of names of blasphemy with seven heads and ten horns. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Revelation%2017&version=KJV . Some people interpret the great whore as being the city of Rome, Italy (which persecuted the early Christian Church).

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1kD1zubg3cA I decided to post this frightening YouTube video of Greta Thunberg with a Swedish death metal background to show why Peter Thiel might be scared of Greta Thunberg being the Antichrist.

    For those who are interested and listen to podcasts, Dr. Brad Onishi of the Straight White American Jesus podcast is doing a series on Peter Thiel’s Gospel.
