    So it seems the next Pope will be the last ,
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prophecy_of_the_Popes
    What do reckon, does this mean the world will end or just the Catholic Church. Maybe its just all a bit of white smoke in the sky.
    I remember hearing another prophecy in the 90's that the first black Pope will be the last Pope.
    What are your thoughts peps

    Let's see :

    Jehova's witnesses predicting the end of the world for 1984 - check
    Nostradamus predicting the end of the world for 1999 - check
    The Mayans predicting the end of the world for 2012 - check

    By my reckoning, I'm 3-0 up, so bring it on!

    Black Pope isn't a reference to skin colour, but more to do with their evil intentions.

    Do you think that the popes know loads of secret stuff? Like do they have Jesus Christs body in a tomb or can they communicate with god through some ancient magic?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,324 ✭✭✭BillyMitchel


    This rubbish is going around years. Nothing will happen. The man is 82 or something and looks about 500, can't blame him for hanging that cap up.

    Was it not the first black president of America would be the beginning of the end? Where's RTDH when you need him.

    The popes hat is an ancient hands-free communication antenna to God.

    Wasn't one of the Borgias a pope? His intentions were pretty shady in Assassin's Creed 2 anyway.

    I should hope it is, that's how I like my prophecies :)

    According to Jamie Foxx's take on things, a black pope will be the best pope, anyway who cares the whole set up is weird, just saw a great parody on you tube worth watching called the new pope

    I reckon the pope switched to the dark side after watching The Walking Dead last night.

    Great more end of the world ****e


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,504 ✭✭✭bennyineire


    So I reckon the next pope should last maybe 10 years, so therefore 10 years until the end of the world. I can't believe this we are only after getting over the world ending last December and now we have another end of the world to look forward to.

    Best thing about being a sun worshipper is that the world ends every night and is born again in a blaze of light every morning!

    Of course, if I were to forgo sacrificing all those animals during the dark times Google knows what would happen. The Sun would probably never appear again and the end of the world would last forever.

    10 years? Just in time for the next building boom. End of the world proof houses. They'll be all the go.

    Yep quite the Cunning Linguist According to the Borgias on netflix :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,428 ✭✭✭ZX7R


    Popes Victor I (189 to 199), Miltiades (310/311 to 314), and Gelasius I (492 to 496) were all from the Roman territories in noth Africa, but it is unknown if they were black (negroid) as we use that term today, or if they were closer in ethnicity to other near eastern or mediterranean peoples who lived in that area at that time. So we probably all ready had a colored pope hand the world hasent ended yet

    JW's are always talking about the end of the world....Even when it has ended they will still be prophesising it. It's business as usual.

    Notradamus is all bogus.

    The true Mayas didn't say the world was going to the end.

    If want you to talk,, at least talk about things you know and stop pretending to appear smart on subjects you know nothing about.

    Hopefully it will mean an end to organized religion.

    Some of those mottos are great,Half of them sound like race horses.

    Insatiable beast
    Corrupted nation
    Half body of the balls
    From a pregnant hell.
    New man from the strong virgin
    Schismatic crow
    From a bony cobbler
    Snaky man
    From cattle country

    Everyone's world will end on a different date.

    .....just start living your life and stop worrying about outward influences that can't be controlled. When your long gone, you won't be giving a sh*te if the world ends or not. No one lives forever!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,299 ✭✭✭spiralism


    Worth pointing out that the Catholic Church itself denounces the prophecy as a forgery. Thing is, im sure they're well aware and dont want to fulfil a prophecy they themselves denounce? It is the church though so i dunno...

    It is a bit creepy though, you look back and it matches up. I've seen a million and one of these doomsday predictions but if yer man from Ghana gets it and takes up the name Peter i'm going to get just a tiny bit edgy. Incidentally his name is Peter at any rate.

    Oddly enough i just saw some thing on the news about some african guy potentially being the next pope


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,009 ✭✭✭✭Run_to_da_hills


    Cardinal Peter Turkson (next pope?)

    "wants a central world bank"

    "In October of that year he called for the establishment of a 'global public authority' and a 'central world bank' and has come out in favour of a Robin Hood-style tax on large financial transactions. When he visited Britain with Pope Benedict in 2010 he was singled out as a possible successor".

    The blood thickens. :)

    That's not just freaky that's a tad whacky. Pope resigns and then the Vatican gets struck by lightening....
