I hope you understand that some of us don't buy into this "beast" thing. I went to Catholic school for 12 years and never once heard any reference to The Beast.
I’m not surprised you never heard any references to “The Beast” in Catholic school. I believe Catholics spend most of their time simply following the Pope’s “word” rather than God’s Word. If you would take time to actually study God’s Word, you will see many references to the “beast” However, I don’t see any Biblical support that the anti-christ will have anything to do with the Presidency of the US. Rather, He will most probably be associated with the European Union.
