Talk:Four horsemen of the Apocalypse

Can someone please explain where pestilence came from, since it does not seem to be from the biblical passage?
Discworld's four horsemen deserve mention

In Good Omens the old horsemen do not become a biker gang, rather a biker gang becomes the new horsemen.
What was their purpose?
The article didn't explain what or who they were, so I added a short sentence giving some information. Someone elaborate, please, I'm not Christian and have no real knowledge about the horsemen (which is why I wanted the information in the first place). --Spug 13:07, 9 Jan 2005 (UTC)

The rider of the white horse is the false prophet (not Christ, as some have claimed). The rider of the red horse represents war; the black horse, famine; and the pale horse, pestilence.

Just asking...
