Off Topic » in reply to Ahmadinejad, the Mahdi, and the apocalypse

actually, the intro may need clarification

I hope the following conversation will suggest that there's something else that our three traditions have in common: the shared dream of Armageddon and world annihilation.

I am not aware of Armageddon in the Judaic tradition although I am not really educated in that field either. My understanding is the Messiah could come at any time, and Armaggedon is not necessary or even relevant.

Also thought that Armageddon belonged only to part of Christian theology, say the Pentecostalists for instance.

Apart from this the transcript is fascinating and worth a read.
