Interesting. In the “prophecy” it talks about the pope being from the Benedictine Order. Is Pope Benedict from that order (and hence his name)? I searched on Wiki but no mention of that - see that he was born in Bavaria.
Get ready for a media smear job not seen since Pius XII was branded ‘Hitler’s Pope’
The response from the lefties will range from wishing him dead to having him stand trial for imagined crimes against liberalism.
One of those so-called prophecy guys (Nostradamus? Or that other Malarkey?) said he would be "Gloria olivae" ("the glory of the olive,") which (by a major stretch) some people identified with the Olivetans, who are a tiny branch of the Benedictines. They have one abbey in France; none in Germany.
There is no connection between the Olivetan Order and the Benedict XVI.
I always thought "Glory of the Olive" meant that the pope after John Paul II would be Martini!
I don't think there's any real co-relation to order and the name chosen.
Cardinal Ratzinger chose the name of Benedict after the monk Benedict from the 5th century who formed the Benedictine order and also to Pope Benedict XV, who was Pope during the first world war.
