I don't really see the contaminating of the Antichrist with pork being a problem for him. He will be without hope of going to heaven even in his own mind. Just a thought.

So, would it solve the Muslim extremist problem if we told them that we would always wrap their dead bodies in pig skins thereby negating their expectations of 70 virgins? You know those virgin girls would be good Muslims anyhow (no Gentile riffraff will be up there!) And, the Muslim brothers of those virgins will kill you just for staring at them. I really think they need to rethink the whole virgin thing!

I just noted the question about Muslim.
It will not be because (if history repeats),the other two times a pig was offered upon the alter.
Muslims are unable to come in contact with pork.They lose all chance of going to heaven.

This scene also was repeted in 70AD when Titus,the Roman general(later emperor),sacked the temple.
I agree this will happen again.

Wonder if this person will be a Muslim extremist?
So far they are the only ones I know who force you to worship their god and if you don't they kill you.
Revelation 20:4 (KJV)
And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
They also behead people and have done it many times on TV so everyone could watch. Very sick but real and happening now.

Question: "What is the abomination of desolation?"
Answer: The phrase “abomination of desolation” refers to Matthew 24:15: “So when you see standing in the holy place 'the abomination that causes desolation,' spoken of through the prophet Daniel - let the reader understand.” This Scripture is referring to Daniel 9:27, “He will confirm a covenant with many for one 'seven.' In the middle of the 'seven' he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And on a wing [of the temple] he will set up an abomination that causes desolation, until the end that is decreed is poured out on him.” In 167 B.C., a Greek ruler by the name of Antiochus Epiphanes set up an altar to Zeus over the altar of burnt offerings in the Jewish temple in Jerusalem. He also sacrificed a pig on the altar in the temple in Jerusalem. This event is known as the “abomination of desolation.”
In Matthew 24:15, Jesus was speaking some 200 years after the abomination of desolation described above had occurred. So, Jesus must have been prophesying that some time in the future another abomination of desolation would occur in a Jewish temple in Jerusalem. Most Bible prophecy interpreters believe that Jesus was referring to the Antichrist, who will do something very similar to what Antiochus Epiphanes did. This is confirmed by the fact that some of what Daniel prophesied in Daniel 9:27 did not occur in 167 B.C. with Antiochus Epiphanes. Antiochus did not confirm a covenant with Israel for seven years. It is the Antichrist who in the end times will establish a covenant with Israel for seven years and then break it by doing something similar to the abomination of desolation in the Jewish temple in Jerusalem.
Whatever the future abomination of desolation is, it will leave no doubt in anyone’s mind that the one perpetrating it is the person known as the Antichrist. Revelation 13:14 describes him making some kind of image to which all are forced to bow down and worship. Turning the Temple of the Living God into a place of worship for himself is about as much of an abomination in God’s eyes as there could possibly be. Those who are alive and remain during the Tribulation should be watchful and recognize that this event is the beginning of 3 1/2 years of the worst of the Tribulation period and that the return of the Lord Jesus is imminent. “Watch therefore, praying in every season that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things which shall occur, and to stand before the Son of Man” (Luke 21:36).

Mark 13:14 “But when you see the desolating sacrilege set up where it ought not to be (let the reader understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains;”
