Sam Elliott special kind of stupid

Book of Revelation spells it out.

I’m familiar with that book, but afraid to interpret it

Best to hope some of the nastier things like the description of the Beast is symbolic because if it is a literal description of the entity in question.

I remember reading that the antichrist suffered a head wound, and everyone marvelled that he had survived !

A lot of people nowadays can survive what used to be a fatal blow to the head or head shot. It's possible that person literally gets 'brains blown out' and recovers from it.
