President Obama might have a little bit of animosity heading his way if people take doppelgängers too seriously. On Saturday, right wing political pundit and television show host, Glen Beck pointed out the uncanny resemblance between the president and the character of Satan in the History Channel’s The Bible miniseries.

Of course this has spiraled into a internet frenzy of right wing psychopaths comparing POTUS to the devil. No one seems to have the mental faculties to separate a paid-for television production from a religious text.

Without make-up, actor Mohamen Mehdi Ouazanni (who played the Prince Of The Air) doesn’t look much like Obama at all.
Satan.
Plain coincidence, or intentional manufacturing of spice by the producers? You decide.
