I've considered that as well, but there is one MAJOR issue with that, the AC must be a single human. Primarily because of the way Revelation and Ezekiel are written regarding the AC. If everyone is to worship the AC along with his (graven) image, but it's a huge sin in Islam to have a picture of Muhammed, but we haven't seen a image of "Allah", then who are the people of earth supposed to worship? For this reason, along with others, there must be a physical, single Anti-Christ.....and i just realized I misread your posting. Apparently I haven't woken up yet. The question is about this "deal" is does it match what scriptures describe? Or are we trying to fit scripture into what we want and not vice versa? Much like fitting a circle into a square. Here's the thing about this "deal" also, everyone knows that no "peace" will come out of this deal. The deal is supposed to generate a form of peace, this one clearly doesn't.
