Peter Thiel: World Nearing the Appearance of the Antichrist

Peter Thiel: World Nearing the Appearance of the Antichrist
——————————–
Peter Thiel, the American billionaire and prominent figure in the technology world, has warned in several recent private speeches that the world is approaching the era of the “End Times.”

According to The Guardian, Thiel, who identifies as an Orthodox Christian, stated his belief that the Antichrist (Dajjal) may already be present among humanity. He warned that this figure seeks to manipulate global fears—such as nuclear threats, the climate crisis, and technology—to push people toward accepting a “single world order.”

Thiel cited institutions like the United Nations (UN) and the International Criminal Court (ICC) as examples of structures he believes could potentially contribute to the realization of this singular global system.

The Shi’a view, based on narrations from the Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them), also emphasizes the appearance of the Dajjal as one of the significant signs preceding the reappearance of Imam al-Mahdi (may Allah hasten his reappearance).

This event is foretold to occur before the global uprising of the Imam of the Time. It serves as a major test of faith and patience for believers, preparing them for the ultimate advent of the promised savior.
