Don't worry artsouth, it was just a poke to get a reaction from the aussies in this forum.

So Harte I say to you LMAO! [/b]

Psy101,

Please don't take it that way. Australia is my favorite foreign country. I was only trying to poke fun at the following exchange, an odd juxtaposition of ideas:

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(\"PSY101\")</div>

I remember watching two programs regarding Nostradamus(sorry if I am rambling about it, but I do feel strongly about the subject)in Australia, one in 1980 and then one in 1990. It was to show what we had translated up until 1980, the similarities it had with world events and then onto the future to review the predictions 10 years later to see if they had come true. The results were damn scary even the presenter was :lol:. (It was John Waters by the way .)[/b]

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(\"Artsouth\")</div>

this is so true, just look around ... people belive everything that they see on tv .and never take the time to evaluate it, or disern it . they just assume its the truth...[/b]

Psy watches a couple of Nostrodamus programs on TV, Art complains that people don't bother to think analytically because they believe everything they see on TV. It struck me (and others) as funny.

The reference to Australian TV was to help ensure that readers of my post would immediately know which posts I was poking fun at.

I love Australia, and its people. Although I never would have guessed that I would have had to put this much effort into explaining such a simple jest to an Aussie. Live and learn.:lol:

thanks for clearing that up cary, ive not left the states ,and im not catholic...so iwas just a bit lost..[/b]

In addition to Cary's explanation - here's a link for you Art:
http://www.catholic-pages.com/grabbag/malachy.asp

In persecutione extrema S.R.E. sedebit Petrus Romanus, qui pascet oves in multis tribulationibus: quibus transactis civitas septicollis diruetur, & Judex trem?dus judicabit populum suum. Finis.
(In extreme persecution, the seat of the Holy Roman Church will be occupied by Peter the Roman, who will feed the sheep through many tribulations, at the term of which the city of seven hills will be destroyed, and the formidable Judge will judge his people. The End.)

Just to add some salt of speculation, and for your cross reference's sake (cuz I should have been a librarian :lol: ), here's what Revelation's has to say about the Seven's: http://www.sacred-texts.com/bib/kjv/rev017.htm

13:1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
17:7 And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns.
17:8 The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.
17:9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.
17:10 And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.
17:11 And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.
17:12 And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.

Hello, this is an interesting topic. While I am not a Nostradamus scholar, by any means, I have been interested enough to read a few things. His quatrains are confusing to me and I can't make heads nor tails of them, so if I have any comprehension of them it comes from the scholarship of others. That said, I have a few comments for the items that have been brought up in this thread.

DWOMT

I remember reading a quatrain where he mentioned in the seventh month of 1999 how a great king of terror would come down. Nothing seemed to happen, at least nothing major or minor resembling that. Maybe I am wrong about world events during July of 1999? However, sometimes I also wonder what if we did heed to the warnings in the quatrains, and we now live in an alternate future different from what Nostradamus originally saw.

No, I also wondered about this. In fact, a few years before 1999, I was with a friend in a used bookstore and pulled down a book on Nostradamus. I read this quatrain and was conviced that the "King of Terror" must be a nuclear bomb. I thought maybe this meant WWIII. But, even Nostradamus told his son in his letter to Ceasar that the times/years of some of the predictions might be a little off at times. What is interesting about this quatrain is that many Nostradamus scholars think it refers to Osama bin Laden. He is the King of Terror that makes the Monguls happy. A week after 9/11, Time magazine actually had OBL on its cover and the article was entitled, "The Prince of Terror." Sounds like it could refer to him.

Anyhow, that is my two cents on the matter. Sorry for writing a book. :blush:

well being that the new pope , is 78 years old and also olivarian, this could get interesting ... do you think it him who is the last pope ? or the one to follow?

Re: war with iran?....nostrodamus 27 year war

According to St. Malachy's predictions, Pope Benedict is not the last. The next and last pope is called "Peter the Roman". Supposively the end of the world occurs during his duty as Pope.

Greetings, would-be fellow travelers:

Well, you don't have to wear a conical hat with yellow stars emblazoned on it and stare into a bowl of water, nor examine the entrails of current events and the cyclical nature of the Papacy to predict a future conflict with Iran. You merely have to consult no less a mystical source than.....GQ Magazine.

Thass' right, folks! The May issue features "The Next War Is Closer Than You Think," by Joshua Kurlantzick including an exclusive interview with Iranian president Mohammad Khatami by first-time GQ writer Hooman Majd.

People dismiss these lad mags (or, as a friend of mine refers to them, "starter porn.") of which GQ is a grandfather, and this issue doesn't even put a comely lass on the cover, unless you consider Hayden Christensen as such. But, inside these publications are often found some of the most compelling journalism.

The feature article makes the case that Bush and the neo-cons have had a long-term strategy for pacifying the Middle East (and by extension assuring U.S. dominance over dwindling oil reserves) and are now beating the drums to topple Iran. The piece doesn't get into larger questions, like, where are the troops going to come from for such an adventure, and, what about Korea? But I don't think the neo-cons can spin Korea in a manner to whip up fury and hate as they can for Iran. Plus, Iran doesn't have the "nookier" capacity. Yet.

So I don't think you'll need to wait until 2012 for a war with Iran. As one official says toward the piece's end, you have a second-term president with nothing to lose and who leads by "instinct." Thinking that a war isn't inevitable, as he phrases it, "naive."

And I don't even think this'll trigger what some here have been running around shouting about "World War III." I think WWIII is happening now, and it's all about trade and finance, but that's another matter. I mean, who will stop the U.S.? Russia? They'll huff and puff but why, after all, is POTUS over there sidling up to Putin (who resembles to me a conniving Siamese cat, and I say this because I am partly owned by a conniving Siamese cat), Europe won't support it, but that's not yet stopped W. Inc., and the UN will issue denunciations, and the government hasn't lost much sleep over that, either. W. is trying to shore up the flank. The s..t is going to come down on Teheran, and probably sooner than later, just in time for either a hand-picked Republican successor or a luckless Democrat who'll be handed a broken economy and a few intractable wars with which to contend. Gee, thanks, but no thanks.

Here's where your civil unrest may enter into the picture. Let compulsory military service get introduced, and lawsy, you'll hear some howling, and the peacemakers will be denounced as anti-American, indeed, this is happening now. Troops going into Iran won't make many in the U.S. happy, either, but, what are we going to do about it? Who knows? Not me. I'm making no claims toward prescience.

See, if the U.S. could muster it up to have more than one political party, we wouldn't be headed into the abysss just now. So here's my advice, coming by way of my father-in-law who lives in Jackson, Mississppi. Mississippi is near or at the bottom of almost every national indicator. So, he tells me, if the world is heading to Hades, then buy land in Mississippi. It'll be the last to go. That should appeal to the survivalists out there.

And a final somewhat tangential note. Not long after 9/11, the Ayn Rand organization ran a full page ad in the New York Times proclaiming that the U.S. needed to invade Iran, sooner not later, because, they claimed, Iran exports the terrorism and harbors the evil-doers, and etc. Not even the Randers wanted to go into Iraq.

War with Iran is looking quite plausible, now.
