I'm reminded of this one Harry Potter fanfiction where cartoonishly-evil Dumbledore was easily convinced that Colonel Sanders was a Dark Lord. Despite the fact that he was supposed to be a master manipulator with all of Wizarding Britain in the palm of his hand. rikalousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882696241406815138.post-59653006263776885122014-01-26T11:19:23.025-08:002014-01-26T11:19:23.025-08:00A search for Disney + "Mark of the Beast"...A search for Disney + "Mark of the Beast" produces 103,000 hits.<br /><br />For what it's worth, a search for "Reagan is the Antichrist" produces 41,000 hits.
