   Other, and perhaps better, candidates for the antichrist would have been Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot, and others of that ilk. Their own people put them in power (albeit, not always willingly) and God did nothing to stop it from happening, although I’m sure plenty of people prayed that He would. Also, the Apocalypse did not happen and eventually they died, and their countries gradually limped back to something resembling normalcy … until the next dictator channeling them rose to power. We humans never learn.

   Yes, that is true. But then he’d be in an apartment building with a landlord and other tenants which may not be other college students, and such pranks are frowned upon (if not absolutely forbidden), annoy the other tenants, and may lead to eviction. College dorms, on the other hand, contain nothing but college students (such as the ones crowding around his doorway), and are relatively tolerant of such hi-jinks as long as no permanent damage is done. I speak as one who has participated in and been subject to a few pranks myself back in the long-long-ago days at college.

   “No, dear. That would kill them, and I hope you don’t want that. They’ve got an important job to do making good dirt for our backyard, so you’d better hurry and put them back so they can get on with their work” [Except, he’s probably squished them to death already. Oh well, as long as I don’t have to get out of this nice steamy bath]

   If Mr. AntiVaxxer is put into a position of authority, we’ll be seeing Mr. Measles, Mr. Tetanus, Mr. Diphtheria, Mr. WhoopingCough, Mr. Influenza, and all their friends. Maybe even Mr. SmallPox will be making a comeback. The saddest part of all that is those fellows are child murderers!
