America does scare me, so many fundamentalist christian tv shows and those DAMN STADIUM brainwashing preaching sessions where people "Feel the power" and get punched in the head by the pastor...I can't stand those shows, it is a religious nation and thanks to Bush we are hearing it everyday....'March on Christian soldiers.....as to war'.

If a person says that you should kill your child, especially, or any person if you "THINK" (at that), that they're the anti-Christ, to kill them, then they're not a Christian. That's a person twisted by the devil. And as far as the other comments, if those people who said those things call themselves Christians, they need to check themselves and study the word and what it really means to be a Christian. To be a Christian means to be "like Christ", right? Christ would never tell someone to get out of the country for not "liking" the fact that it's a Christian nation now would he? He would encourage tne nonbeliever to follow him. It is our job as Christians to bring others closer to the Lord, not make them leave and get messed up even worse. Come on now, think about it.

I work hard at being a Christian. Its all about following the two great commandments Jesus gave us. So I'm not sure how the person who said what you've written bases the assertion of Christianity. Jesus did not turn anyone away. Everyone was and is priceless in the sight of God.
Eschatology and all things connected to it are very big now because of the state of our world. But Jesus clearly says that no one, not even he himself knows when the day of his coming will be. He does tell us to be ready though and so that means be on our toes all the time. For your prospects at achieving eternal life, when someone says things like what you have said here, instead of judging, you might try to engage the person in scripture based conversations about what is really known.
Revelation, the book of Revelation is written in purely symbolic form.
Just always remember that you and the person(s) who said the stuff you've written about are loved by God as we all are. I hope you let that fill you with warmth and loving light and I hope you can spread it around!

Yes... There are scary people in every religion.
A true Christian would not kill his/her child. The Anti-Christ will show up someday, and when he/she does, by the time people recognize it, it will already be too late for anybody to stop it. There is a plan and it will be fulfilled eventually. Take a look at all the prophesies in the old testament that came true in the new testament.
Believe by faith, not by what some scientist dug up.

WOW! okay that's a little far. I am Christian. If your anti christ I'm sorry someone set a bad example for you. BUT some really if they want to kill everyone who is Anti-Christ then they aren't really obeying Christ's laws. Don't be scared of all Christians realy. Yes there are the oddballs that are realy off the track BUT I would try to listen to the sane ones.

See now that is what I hate about religion. People will only read into part of the story and make up the rest in their God's name. See the bible shows that the Anti-Christs birth and reign is inevitable... so how is killing a child you assume is the Anti-Christ going to change anything? And braining someone at the stake!? Christ asked his people to go and make disciples... he did not follow that with kill them if they don't like me. He left that to the Muslim Terrorist.

I have never heard of such a thing any Christian has ever said that I know. That is a bunch of bull. It sounds like a cult is trying to make christians look bad. Saying that is not christian. Check your sources before pointing fingers at good people.

Jesus gave a parable regarding weeds sown in among wheat at Matthew 13:24-30. He provided an explanation for his apostles at Matthew 13:36-43.
At Acts 20:29 Jesus warns his apostles that "oppressive wolves will enter in among you".
At 2 Corinthians 11:12-15 it says: "Now what I am doing I will still do, that I may cut off the pretext from those who are wanting a pretext for being found equal to us in the office of which they boast. For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for Satan himself keeps transforming himself into an angel of light. It is therefore nothing great if his ministers also keep transforming themselves into ministers of righteousness. But their end shall be according to their works."
2 Thesselonians 2:3 says regarding the end of the system of things foretold by Jesus - "Let no one seduce you in any manner, because it will not come unless the apostasy comes first and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction."
1 Timothy 4:1 warns that "some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to misleading inspired utterances and teachings of demons"
2 Timothy 4:3-4 says "For there will be a period of time when they will not put up with the healthful teaching, but, in accord with their own desires, they will accumulate teachers for themselves to have their ears tickled; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, whereas they will be turned aside to false stories."
2 Peter 2:1-3 says "However, there also came to be false prophets among the people, as there will also be false teachers among YOU. These very ones will quietly bring in destructive sects and will disown even the owner that bought them, bringing speedy destruction upon themselves. Furthermore, many will follow their acts of loose conduct, and on account of these the way of the truth will be spoken of abusively. Also, with covetousness they will exploit YOU with counterfeit words. But as for them, the judgment from of old is not moving slowly, and the destruction of them is not slumbering."
The point of all of these scriptures in relation to your question is that Christians are like Jesus' parable of the wheat and weeds. A little agricultural information for you - there are weeds that resemble wheat almost identically. The differences are so subtle that they aren't seen until the harvest time. Similarly with Christ's parable, false Christianity has been sown in among true Christianity and until the conclusion of this system they will continue to grow together, but the differences become more and more noticeable as the conclusion nears its end. So basically speaking, when you hear self-proclaimed Christians say things like what you've listed above, you can be assured that they aren't true followers of Christ.
As for the anti-Christ, 1 John 2:18,19 says that "there have come to be many antichrists...They went out from us, but they were not of our sort; for if they had been of our sort, they would have remained with us." Further, at 1 John 2:22 it says "This is the antichrist, the one that denies the Father and the Son." 2 John 4 states that "many deceivers have gone forth into the world, persons not confessing Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the antichrist."
What you can see from these scriptures is that the antichrist is not as depicted in movies...a really bad child who is in desperate need of being done away with. In reality the antichrist is anyone straying from the teachings of Christ and deceiving others in that regard.
I believe the motto of America is that it is "one nation under God"...but the question of the day should be WHICH god? Note that Satan is referred to as "the god of this system of things" at 2 Corinthians 4:3, 4.
