With all the Pope Benedict threads I thought I would mention that from some prophecies that his reign will be short and he is to be the last Pope
before the "bad" Pope.

Saint Malachy: He was also known as Maolmhaodhog ua Morgair; Maol Maedoc; and Malachy O'Morgair. Born -1094 at Armagh, Ireland. Died November 2, 1148
at Clairvaux/ Canonized - 1190 by Pope Clement III; first papal canonization of an Irish saint
In his visions he saw all the Popes to come, including the last.
Benedict: The Glory of the Olive. The Order of St. Benedict has said this Pope will come from their order. It is interesting that Jesus gave his
apocalyptic prophecy about the end of time from the Mount of Olives. This Pope will reign during the beginning of the tribulation Jesus spoke of. The
111th prophesy is "Gloria Olivae" (The Glory of the Olive). The Order of Saint Benedict has claimed that this pope will come from their ranks. Saint
Benedict himself prophesied that before the end of the world his Order, known also as the Olivetans, will triumphantly lead the Catholic Church in its
fight against evil.
Peter: PETER THE ROMAN - This final Pope will likely be Satan, taking the form of a man named Peter who will gain a worldwide allegiance and
adoration. He will be the final Antichrist which prophecy students have long foretold. If it were possible, even the very elect would be deceived. The
112th prophesy states: "In the final persecution of the Holy Roman Church there will reign Petrus Romanus, who will feed his flock amid many
tribulations; after which the seven-hilled city will be destroyed and the dreadful Judge will judge the people. The End."
Malachy's final words, "Rome, the seat of the Vatican, will be destroyed and the dreadful Judge will judge the people."

Edgar Cayce predicted that there will be one more pope after John Paul II who will serve a short term. Any way you look at it - the days of religious
doctrine and control by church and state are coming to an end.
