The Christians among us already know that the papacy is the second of three eventual fulfillments of the prophecies regarding the Antichrist. That has been known for close to 5 centuries.

The only thing worse than a fool is a liar. You are both. Drunk, stupid, vapid and lying are no way to go through life, son.

Link to a thread that refutes your claim that Palin supporters have no interest in freeping the movie attendance (I don't see it as a negative like you did, so I won't use your negative word choices).
