In Christian eschatology (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_eschatology), Antichrist refers to a kind of person prophesied by the Bible (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bible) to oppose Jesus Christ (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jesus_in_Christianity) and falsely substitute themselves as a savior in Christ's place before the Second Coming (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Coming). (Wikipedia)
It seems that the new elected US president, during his investiture, fails to put his right hand on the Bible with the promises to serve the people and his country, but there are those who go with the idea that this oversight, from someone who is on his second mandate, is voluntary and that the antichrist has shown up his true identity. Where there is falsehood, there must be truthfulness as a counterpart, so assuming that the antichrist is already among us, the Second Return is not far away, so be it.
Surely, Macron is not better than your US president, dear Dom, but let me tell you that I don't see any country with a respectable or high governance around the world. For sure, the only ONE that can bring solace and peace of mind is the long awaiting time of the Second Return as you are aware, but for now we have to do with the bad and the ugly, wherever it may be.

"UB I read that only 15 percent of what appears recorded in history can be credited as true".
Any chance you can give us a direct quote from The Urantia Book? Or even a Paper number?
It is a curious statement if true.
