"""the belief that the pope is the antichrist was once a virtually unanimous belief among protestant denominations. in fact, the westminster confession of faith (church of england) states: "there is no other head of the church but the lord jesus christ, nor can the pope of rome, in any sense, be head thereof, but is that antichrist, that man of sin, and son of perdition, that exalteth himself in the chuch against christ and is called god." other protestant confessions of faith identified the pope as the antichrist, including but not limited to the morland confession of 1508 and 1535 (waldenses) and the helvetic confession of 1536 (switzerland). today, those that hold such a belief are in the minority. in fact, nowadays it is viewed as radical and uncharitable for a christian to say that the pope is the antichrist. how did such transformation take place among the protestant denominations? the change in the position of the protestant denominations toward rome was the direct result of a concerted campaign by agents of the roman catholic church. one of the methods used by the roman catholic theologians was to relegate the book of revelation to some future time. in 1590 a roman catholic priest francisco ribera, in his 500 page commentary on the book of revelation, placed the events of the book of revelation in a period in the future just prior to the end of the world. he claimed the antichrist would be an individual who would not be manifested until very near the end of the world. he wrote that the antichrist would rebuild jerusalem, abolish christianity, deny christ, persecute the church and dominate the world for three and a half years. another jesuit, cardinal robert bellarmine, promoted ribera's teachings. bellarmine was one of the most intellectual cardinals of his time. in 1930 he was canonized by the vatican as a saint and "doctor of the church." this catholic interpretation of the book of revelation did not become accepted in the protestant denominations until a book title "the coming of the messiah in glory and majesty" was published in 1812, 11 years after the death of its author. the author of that book was another jesuit by the name of emmanuel de lacunza."

olyslager and conway presented a paper at the wpath 20th international symposium (2007) arguing that the data from their own and other studies actually imply much higher prevalence, with minimum lower bounds of 1:4,500 male-to-female transsexual people and 1:8,000 female-to-male transsexual people for a number of countries worldwide. they estimate the number of post-op women in the us to be 32,000 and obtain a figure of 1:2500 male-to-female transsexual people. they further compare the annual incidences of sex reassignment surgery (srs) and male birth in the u.s. to obtain a figure of 1:1000 mtf transsexual people and suggest a prevalence of 1:500 extrapolated from the rising rates of srs in the us and a "common sense" estimate of the number of undiagnosed transsexual people. olyslager and conway also argue that the us population of assigned males having already undergone reassignment surgery by the top three us srs surgeons alone is enough to account for the entire transsexual population implied by the 1:10,000 prevalence number, yet this excludes all other us srs surgeons, surgeons in countries such as thailand, canada, and others, and the high proportion of transsexual people who have not yet sought treatment, suggesting that a prevalence of 1:10,000 is too low.
