Cardinal Biffi is a well respected cardinal and I'm sure he is on the 'short list' for the next pope. He was the priest who was chosen to lead
this years Papal retreat which is a very prestigious position and signals 'where the Vatican's head is'.
Cardinal Biffi says - and i quote - 'The Antichrist walks among us.'
He also quoted Russian theologian Vladimir Soloviev. They both said "the Antichrist presents himself as pacifist, ecologist and ecumenist."
'Presents'. As in ... is doing it now.
I know that Pope John Paul II made reference to the fact that the Anti-Christ is alive now and is a philanthropist. I'll dig around and see if I can
come up with that.
Anyways, i thought some of ya'll would be interested in this. The choice of this cardinal for the papal retreat tells us what the Vatican is
thinking and it seems that Ratzingers ... I mean Benedicts ... thoughts are on the Anti-Christ.
