Apathy Towards the Anti-Christ

Jack Kinsella speculates who might be the anti-christ of the apocalypse, and then explains why it doesn't even matter (snippets):

....Charles, Prince of Wales....King Juan Carlos of Spain....Mikhail Gorbachev....Bill Gates....Cardinal Lustinger....Osama bin-Laden.... ....When it comes to the antichrist, I plead both ignorance and apathy. That is to say, as far as who he might be, I don't know. And I don't care. A lot of prophecy teachers claim that they know. Many others scour the Scriptures, seeking clues to his identity. They miss the point. The central message of Bible prophecy to the Christian on this side of the Rapture is to know when His coming 'is near, even at the door' -- not the antichrist's. Trying to identify the antichrist is, to the Christian in the Church Age, an exercise in futility. We'll never know if we guess right anyway. It does sell books, but it does so by sensationalizing something that is of no consequence to the Church. The coming of the antichrist is the evidence, not the substance, of the Blessed Hope of the Church Age. Scripture and fulfilled prophecy are spectacular enough on the surface. The Bible promises a crown of righteousness for those who love His coming. Not for watching for His enemy. Looking for the antichrist misdirects the focus away from the Lord's return -- an event that must occur first. That is the mid trib and post trib rapture views' fatal flaw. Their proponents are looking for signs of the antichrist, and expect Christ later. But the Crown of Righteousness is for waiting for HIS appearing, not the antichrist's. The two are inconsistent positions. Indeed, they are more consistent with the Jewish view of the Messiah showing up at the end. They put their faith in signs, like the antichrist, and expect Christ to come later, looking for (and fearing) the rise of antichrist, instead of looking for the coming of Christ for His Church. And that is, after all, the mechanism the Scripture says the antichrist uses to fool the world. They are looking for the wrong Messiah....

I don't understand why no one from the Bush cartel made this list's top ten. Also, it seems that the coming of the christ before the anti-christ is going to take a lot of the novelty and glitter away from the latter, and this seems unchrist-like (stealing the spotlight), so I have some doubts.

Mrs. Left is Right says the apocalypse, according to all major religions, will be starting around 2012. If this is the case, then we have to do our damndest to get Hillary Clinton into the White House before then, because the Left needs to end in a blaze of glory, not in some wimp-ass, subservient conflagration.
