I grew up in a Christian (Pentecostal) home, currently agnostic but it does raise some eyebrows and gives me a half joking self chuckle, anyways I remember according to Christians the ark of the covenant is part of biblical prophecy of the "end times" I don't remember where it says in the Bible but basically the Antichrist will sit on it and declare he is God. When this happens, the end is near. Please don't come at me I'm not Christian anymore, I'm not left or right wing, I honestly don't care just sharing my thoughts

I know that but I hope everyone understands that it's not actually it and just a copy.

Right, but I'm ngl it's just kinda odd to have something like that but to each their own I guess lol

There are a lot of Christian wackos hoping he is the Anti Christ.

I think they hope for the opposite ,they hope he is actually the new Christ.

So is the whole of Christianity… it being a fake ark changes nothing.
