Who is interested in the prophecies of St. Malachy. Those are the prophecies of who the popes would be from his time to the present. He pretty much got it right right up to the present. The next pope is meant to be the last and is described as Peter the Roman. This last pope will preside over his flock over a time of terrible things including the destruction of the city of seven hills which is known to mean Rome. The next pope is to be the last and will mean the destruction of the Catholic Church. I have probably mucked the general interpretation up so have a read on the internet and you will get the correct version.

I find it all particularly fascinating, especially when considered in relation to end times prophecy. I won't go into all of that but these are interesting times. At present Italy has a hung parliament and the fate of Eurpoe hangs in the balance as a consequence. Barack Obama is on his way (apparently) to Israel with the hope of striking a great peace.

This might all just fizzle out into nothingness and I'm not succumbing to paranoia. However it is certainly most interesting.

I also haven't totally gotten over the end of the baktun (the Mayan calendar thing) because that coincided with the failure of the US to get over the fiscal cliff thing. The current sequestration ordeal can be traced back to that failure. I'm a bit fuzzy on the fiscal cliff linkage to the Mayan calendar. In general I have a sense of foreboding presently.

Anyone else have this?

ending the Catholic Church would mean nothing if all other extremist groups are still around. Someone will step up to take the throne of corruption :shrug:

Take a look at the Zohar as well - it gets even better. With some luck all the world leaders might be in Rome this month when a meteor wipes the whole city clean (at least as speculated back in the late 13th century).

BTW, one of the two authors of Petrus Romanus, Tom Horn, also talking about Exo-Vaticana:

Nostradomas also said the next pope is the last.

End times predictions are much older than the church.

A Mayan Age is five Long Counts, then the flaming serpent returns, which also matches the Sumarian timeline.

Both match the Solar System crossing the Galactic Plane, the cosmic junkyard, and there are mile wide craters on a 26,000 year cycle.

The worship of volcanos, earthquakes, comets and metors does seem at the least a wasted effort.

With all governments being broke, this rich tax exempt church is not going to last.

Behold! When there is nothing but house upon house, field upon field, and no place left in wilderness, the end is near! That sounds about right.

It beats living through the Black Death or the Hundred Year War.

The gods have shown they do not like us, and cannot be bribed.

Old men in dresses live on bribes, but never stop the evils of life, in fact, they get thier cut.

So two choices, if the world might end tomorrow, praying to the god who would kill you, or enjoying the day?

I think transhumanism and the 'singularity' are the true-to-life Dr. Stranglove closing sequence.

In that sense if people like Ray Kurzweil or Michio Kaku are right on their estimations and if we start making artilects and artilects start making artilects by the late 2020's or 2030's the window for deity to bring closing credits is rather small.

But the 7 hills don't mean Rome... they're far more likely to be referring to Mecca (which actually sits near 7 hills, whereas Rome has more than 7, and the Vatican doesn't sit on any of them). Plus, the Vatican doesn't fit the description that Babylon has, that of being a major importer but not producing anything except one product which the world needs - but Saudi Arabia does.

Meh, maybe the next Pope is the last. But whether or not he is, the end is drawing near anyway. We either transition in to post-scarcity, the world gets remade by a deity or several, or everything collapses around us and it's like 410AD all over again. What I don't think will happen is more of the same. We get dystopia, utopia, or both at the same time.

It will all start out seemingly innocent,and benign, and benevolent.

The United Nations and the IMF will take the final step to eliminate cash and switch to a global cashless economy. No more mugging,no more money laundering, no more cash going to drug cartels, or to terrorists.


We are all going to get a UPC barcode tattooed onto our right thumbs (kinda like the EZ Pass transponders you stick on your car windshield). All data will be fed to a computerized account for each person. Like transponders everyone is eager to get one. Those who dont will no longer be able to either earn, nor spend money, because there will no longer be a cash part of the economy.

We will all realize only too late that this tattoo is none other than: "the Mark of the Beast" foretold in the Bible!

The rest...is FUTURE history- as outlined in the book of Revelations! Tribulations, Armegeddon, the end of the World. The whole nine yards!

I knew that both Lisbon Portugal, and San Francisco, claimed to be 'built on 7 hills' but i didnt realize how common a trait being 'built on seven hills' is! There is even a Zevenbergen (' Seven Town') in the Dutch Netherlands.

Well that takes the fun out of it!

Well, a city will be destroyed anyway. Considering the list, the strongest candidate is Tehran. We all know why.

The other reason I find Mecca a bit dubious is the statue of Nebuchadnezzar's dream in Daniel 2. The 4th and 5th beast have iron (iron, then iron mixed with clay). 4th Beast seems to have very clearly been Emperial Rome.

Also, while I can't rule out Islam as having some kind of role (which David Flynn noted Mecca to be 666 nautical miles from the temple mount) it wouldn't tie out with the Zohar's prediction unless there's going to be some huge Sunni summit there this year with major world leaders. Not many world leaders would be allowed anywhere near Mecca due to the restrictions.

Hmmm...personally, I think that the iron mixed with clay is just the former empire, but it formed into something else entirely.

Bergen means mountains or hills. Singular berg.

O the seven hills could be referring to Jerusalem, in the Bible Jerusalem is called Babylon the Great, a Whore that sits on seven hills:- 9 “This calls for a mind with wisdom. The seven heads are seven hills on which the woman sits."

Iam always struck how willing people are to accept prophecies of men such as St Malachy here, or Nostradamus or the stars in the gutter press, but mention the Bible and people think you are mad, there are a heap of Prophesies in their about the last days that are coming true, how about this from 2nd Timothy for instance, do you think people are getting like this?:-

3 But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: 2 For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, 4 traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power.

Never mind the Revelation prophesy of the "banking elite" forming a Global Government with them controlling it.

Don´t expect to see any hills in Zevenbergen. It´s built on a peat bog and as flat as a pancake. If there ever were any hills, they were probably stacks of turf.
