The Messiah still has to return and when he does he will establish a kingdom of peace and righteousness. Hmmm

But first (reaching outside Christianity but into the same tradition of prophesy) the Mahdi must come, and will do so even if there's only one day left to the arrival of the Messiah (Jesus).

There are a large group of Shia in Iran who believe the Mahdi is here, today, among us, and that he is, in fact, George "W" Bush!

So, maybe the time left for us is less than we ever imagined.

"W"'s mother's name, however, is Barbara, not Amana, but they rhyme!

In fact, I tracked down the meaning of the names, and they are different. Odds are the first scribe to record the Mahdi prophesies missread that "r" as an "m", or the typewriter they used had a bent key.

So many mysteries, so little time.

BTW, I love those Iranians who got the "W is the Mahdi" thing going. If anything, it scared the pants of the Saudis, the Egyptians, the Lebanese, and probably the Sunni in Iraq.

According to our Jewish brethren, the Messiah hasn't come down yet, much less returned. Are they right about the "Israel" prophecies but dead-wrong about Jesus Christ?
