Mayor 'just curious' if Obama is antichrist

FORT MILL, S.C. -- Fort Mill Mayor Danny Funderburk says he was “just curious” when he forwarded a chain e-mail suggesting Democratic Presidential Candidate Barack Obama is the biblical antichrist. “I was just curious if there was any validity to it,” Funderburk said in a telephone interview. “I was trying to get documentation if there was any scripture to back it up.”

Funderburk apparently sent the e-mail from his business account at Gastonia Sheet Metal where he works as a business agent.

The e-mail, which has circulated in the last six months since Obama secured the Democratic nomination, claims the biblical book of Revelation says the antichrist will be in his 40s and of Muslim ancestry.

There is no such scripture. And Obama is not a Muslim. But that hasn’t stopped the e-mail.

The urban legend Web site Snopes.com first exploded the myth in March. Funderburk forwarded the e-mail this month.

When asked if he believed Obama was the antichrist, Funderburk replied, “I’ve got absolutely no way of knowing that.”

Funderburk said it “probably does give that impression” that he believed the e-mail was true “but that was not my intent.”

The mayor said it was a mistake not to include a subject line when he forwarded the chain e-mail.

“I am curious about current events and their connection to the Bible,” he said.

What an idiot

My MIL sent the same email to me a few months ago, and I replied all telling them it was a stupid email, and she got pissed at me...but the email I got kept quoting "A Muslim male extremist between the ages of 17 and 40"

No, the antichrist is probably going to have to be a pretty good speaker to get people to support him. And no way they foresaw teleprompters back then. Take the teleprompter away from Obama and have him act like the antichrist and you'll get:

"Uh, uh, uh, well, Jesus, uh, shouldn't follow him, uh, but I mean that's a very sensitive question, uh, and I wouldn't think to, uh, well, impose on people. So, uh, well, that's above my paygrade."

funny

There's a real quick way to settle this issue, get someone late at night to check every inch of his body to see if there is a 666 somewhere

My dad used to swear that George Bush (the first) was the anti-christ bringing in the New World Order which would signal the end of times! Didn't happen! I bet he'd jump on Obama as anti-christ as well, but he'd never say it to me, because he knows I'm voting Obama!

If I was your dad and I knew you were planning to vote for the anti-Christ, I would probably warn you.

And you don't want to have your dad saying "I told you so" in case it turns out Obama is the anti-Christ, so you should probably vote for McCain instead, just to be safe.

I live in his general vicinity and I am not surprised.

With McCain being as old as he is, and Sarah Palin being his idea of the person qualified to take over for him if something happens to him, I don't see anything "safe" about voting for McCain.

Just sayin'.

She may be ditzy, but there's no suspicion of her being the anti-Christ. I know which one I prefer. Better safe than sorry!

Are you sure about that?

Although Jerry Falwell did say that, without question, the Anti-Christ was already alive and is without question a Jewish male. I guess that counts out Palin and Obama -- Christian or Muslim, he's not Jewish.

Regardless, if Palin actually were to end up in the Oval Office, the Anti-Christ would probably be superfluous.

Don't be silly, aren't you a true believer? If he IS the antiChrist he'll get in power anyway and the end times will be at hand! You can get raptured up into heaven and the rest of us can suffer here on earth while you point and laugh until the second coming!

It's all God's plan after all!

Uhhhhh, Helllooooooo?

I'm the anti-christ. Thanks.
