For years, billionaire Peter Thiel has traveled the world preaching about apocalypse and the Antichrist. Now, his most successful protégé—Vice President JD Vance—is flirting with similar themes.

During an appearance on an evangelical podcast, Vance was asked whether he thought we were living in the “end times.”

From NBC News:

Vice President JD Vance warned about the dangers of artificial intelligence Tuesday and said he wouldn’t be “shocked” if we were living in the “end times” and the Antichrist was walking the Earth.

Vance made the remarks in a wide-ranging interview on faith with the popular Christian podcaster Bryce Crawford.
During the hourlong sit-down, Crawford asked Vance his perspective on whether the end times are coming — or here.

“Do I think that we’re in the end times? I don’t know, and I think that it’s probably bad for me spiritually to focus too much on it, because there are, like, things you got to do. I got to be good to my wife. I got to be good to my kids. I have to be, you know, as good of a leader as I can for the United States of America,” Vance replied.

“I think that there are, like, things about the world that make me feel, like, not shocked if the Antichrist was walking among us. But again, I try not to focus too much on it,” he said.

“While I wouldn’t be shocked if we are living in the end times, what I’m trying to focus on is doing as much of God’s work as possible right now, and if that leads to the end times, OK,” Vance said.

Vance went on to say that if his work “leads to the end times, OK, and if that leads to … us building a better world that thrives and survives for a very long time after I’m gone, that’s great, too.”
