I remember reading somewhere that one of the lies of the antichrist would be that we were all “gods” and that if we could learn to touch that power, we could do great things like are seen on the show heroes. And that through demon possession, people are able to do some amazing things, from a human stand point at least.  The show is just another, in a long list of shows that are preparing the world for the coming of the antichrist and his new world order.
