A liberal film critic has written an alternative view of the end times:

Imagine if everything the Religious Right believes about the End Times is true, except the Rapture doesn’t take them and the antichrist turns out to be their favorite politician . . . That’s the story of The Event, which will be serialized on this space, one Episode per week, over the next few months.

I wonder if it’s based on the Bible the way that the Left Behind series is purported to be.
If I were picking candidates for the anti-christ, I think I might go with the guy who is saying that he is Jesus Christ and who wants to rule the world.
