For centuries the figure most commonly thought to be the Antichrist has been the Pope. One accusation came from Bishop Arnulf of Reims, who in 991 described Pope John XV as the “Antichrist sitting in God’s temple and showing himself as God.” Even Pope John Paul II was called the Antichrist by a member of the European Parliament, who interrupted one of the pope’s 1988 speeches by waving a sign saying “Pope John Paul II—Antichrist” and shouting “I renounce you as the Antichrist!” Many evangelical churches and some other protestant Christians interpret the Antichrist to be the papacy itself. Representative Michele Bachmann belonged to one such denomination for years, but she left the church in July shortly after announcing her candidacy. Other authority figures suspected of being the Antichrist include Hitler, Gorbachev, and Henry Kissinger.
The heckler, Serrano, and the suspected White House shooter, Ortega-Hernandez, aren’t the only Americans to suspect Obama of being the Antichrist. After Obama’s election, some of these cited the winning Illinois lottery number the day after Election Day—which ended in “666”—as evidence for this theory. A campaign ad for Senator John McCain during that year was accused of exploiting these fears. Called “The One,” the ad mockingly depicted Obama as a messiah, and some commentators described the ad as using subliminal messages that equated Obama with the Antichrist.
