If Marilyn=Mary (which I\nwas also disinclined toward--Now if Marilyn's husband's name was Joe\ninstead of Skip, that would really nail it down! though that would\nreally be too obvious), then the only \"messianic\" trait the shadow being\nhas (and perhaps that is enough) is being borne by \"Mary.\"\n\nMost people, I suppose, use the term \"antichrist\" to mean something more\ngeneral like \"satanic,\" \"demonic,\" etc. and if that's what you mean by\nantichrist, I have no problem as that fits a general \"apocalyptic\"\nscenario.  I liked your Rosemary's Baby comparison although you'll have\nto help me out with the fine points since I've never read the book/seen\nthe movie in its entirety; my understanding was that her child was\nsimply a demon, not an \"antichrist\" or even Old Nick himself.  \n\nI think we agree on the general picture.\n\nBetter?\n\nRon Crown\ncrownrw at slu.edu"
