THE PROPHECY OF THE POPES? Grasping at straws or seeing things others don’t

Here have been tons of rumors about the Malachy Prophecy of the Popes. You can always check my other site, HorrorReport.com, if you want to see more about that.. In the meantime, on this site I’ll keep things a little more subdued. But i thought I’d reprint an email I shared with friends early this morning:

Food for thought

So with ‘Francis’ being named Pope, it’s a common thought that the ‘prophecy of the popes’ has been undone. Or that it was never real to begin with.. But a few elements that people are neglecting to think about on the veracity of the prophecy:

1) Bergoglio is a Jesuit. In the prophecy, the final pope would try to re-establish supremacy of the Catholic Church—something that Jesuits are known for since their main mission is to stop Protestantism from spreading.

2) He took his name from St. Francis of Assisi. The interesting part of that is St. Francis’ full name was Francesco Di Pietro di Bernardone. One priest commentator on CNN last night actually mentioned how, in the Vatican, Bergoglio may be known both as “Francis and Peter”

3) Cardinal Bergoglio obviously was from South America—but both of his parents were Italian.

And finally, whoever saw Pee Wee Herman’s Big Adventure will surely understand this.. In the film, Pee Wee’s bike was stolen by his neighbor causing him to travel to psychics, giant dinosaurs, and the Alamo’s supposed basement in Texas. And neighbor who stole it was named Francis. How ironic now that Bergoglio picked Francis. Coincidence? You decide. I say we check his Church for stolen bikes.

Ok .. now EVERYONE BACK TO WORK!
