Personally I think they look nothing alike.

Satan looks much more trustworthy.

By Elizabeth Sheld

Apprently there is some scuttlebutt today because the character of Satan in the HISTORY Channel mini-series The Bible looks like President Obama.

The HISTORY channel released the following statement today:

“HISTORY channel has the highest respect for President Obama. The series was produced with an international and diverse cast of respected actors. It’s unfortunate that anyone made this false connection. HISTORY’s ‘The Bible’ is meant to enlighten people on its rich stories and deep history.”

The Bible’s executive producers Mark Burnett and Roma Downey also released a statement:

“This is utter nonsense. The actor who played Satan, Mehdi Ouzaani, is a highly acclaimed Moroccan actor. He has previously played parts in several Biblical epics– including Satanic characters long before Barack Obama was elected as our President.”

Executive Producer, Roma Downey added, “Both Mark and I have nothing but respect and love our President, who is a fellow Christian. False statements such as these are just designed as a foolish distraction to try and discredit the beauty of the story of The Bible.”
