There have been several wackos claiming to be the second coming. The one that sticks out for me was a guy who tried to jump the fence at the White House last spring (I think, maybe it was last fall...). Yeah, he's currently in St. Elizabeth's undergoing psychiatric treatment. I posed this question on Facebook, and was met with a bunch of religious wing-nuts who said that the second coming would be obvious due to biblical prophecies coming true. Sure...
Well, the second coming is suppose to involve Jesus flying from the sky and cosmic trumpets blaring. But the prediction failed and now we're almost 2000 years past the time that was suppose to happen
