I am sure that in the film, the evil man that must not be elected will be Republican.

hooey! next you'll ask me to believe the bullpuckey of Nostrildamus. Don't you think the Catholic Church would prevent anyone from naming themselves Pope John Paul II, if they knew that after him would be the end of the world? Also, Fortune Telling is verboten in the bible. They wouldn't make a fortune teller a saint.

show me the proof of 'Saint Malachi'

PROPHECIES COME TO SCREEN: 'END OF THE WORLD' FILM US DUMPS

UNITED STATES distributors have pulled out of talks about a major new movie about an Irish saint who predicted that the world would end soon after the reign of Pope John Paul II.

The move comes against the background of the attacks on America and the bombing of Afghanistan.

End of Times will star top Hollywood actor Martin Sheen as a renegade monk who tries to head off disaster by blocking the election of a world leader.

The producer of the huge project says until recently the prophecies of St Malachy seemed 'far fetched'.

But Ted McDonnell of Orient West Pictures told us: "Now it has taken on a new sense of urgency."

Sheen, who starred in legendary Vietnam movie Apocolypse Now, plays a monk who tries to head off the appointment of the leader.

He believes that man would start the global war known in the Bible as Armageddon.

Said McDonnell: "Unfortunately the subject matter which seemed quite esoteric and far-fetched some months ago has scared off American distributors.

"Luckily though, the financial backing is European."

End Of Times was written by Limerick-born writer Justin Cleary.

It's based on the prophecies of St Malachy who laid down his warnings on a yellow parchment scroll in 1140.

Said McDonnell: "The film will juxtapose between the contemporary modern day and the dark ages in Ireland.

"We'll be filming in a monastic site in Co Kerry as well as modern-day Rome and various capitals throughout the world.

"A desperate Father Nicholas, a Dominican Friar, played by Sheen, tries to warn world leaders of the doom they are about to wreak upon the whole world."

St Malachy famously predicted the name of every pope since the 12th Century reign of Innocent II.

He was born in Co Armagh in the year 1094 into a wealthy chieftain clan.

He was a gifted speaker and became a monk before travelling the length and breadth of Ireland in an attempt to reform the church.

St Malachy feared it was subsiding into Pagan Celtic practices.

He also thought to do away with the custom of married monks passing on the priesthood to their sons.

For his tireless efforts he was made Bishop of Ireland.

Later in middle age he made a 16-month pilgrimage to Rome.

On an early summer evening in Rome in the year 1140, whilst in the company of a band of Irish monks, he had a series of startling visions.

Bishop Malachy later wrote down the visions on yellow parchment in Latin and told his frightened companions that God had given him a vision of every pope to reign - after Innocent II - until the end of time when he said the world would be judged.

Before returning, Malachy presented Pope Innocent with a manuscript containing 111 prophecies.

The parchment remained largely forgotten in the Vatican's archives for more than 450 years, before a Benedictine historian uncovered the details of the pontiffs.

St Malachy accurately predicted the consecutive lineage of 52 popes.But after the current John Paul II there's only one more pope left to go before Judgment Day.

The producers of End Of Times are hopeful of having a hit on their hands and making a few dollars before time runs out.

"I certainly hope St Malachy got it wrong," joked Ted O'Donnell.

"If Malachy was around in our age he would be in hot demand as a script writer of action and adventure movies, he was after all a very eloquent and articulate scribe."

Directed by Jorge Levinsen, it is scheduled for release next year.

I find it very interesting that, right now, when the **** is hitting the fan, when the forces of evil are rising up to bestride the Earth, and a film about the story of Jesus' last days is being violently suppressed, that they should come up with a story they can twist as an attack on "a leader who will lead to war." No doubt, with Martin Sheen involved, they will twist these doubtfull prophecies to name George Bush as the anit-christ bent on world destruction. I bet you that all of the studios who passed on Mell Gibson's The Passion will be bidding like mad for this Martin Sheen anti-American screed.

There is more at work in the world then most people see or understand. We are afraid that if we voice these fears we will be branded "religious nuts" or "tin foil hat" kooks. Evil is real. Evil is at work. Our fight is against evil. Never doubt it.

Some think that Peter the Roman and Glory of the Olives are the same pope because of the way Malachy listed them/him. So it could be the next pope if Malachy is correct.

STRANGE ATTRACTORS

All species are subject to cycles of sustained growth and sudden calamity. It is a rhythm as old as life itself, and is an integral part of the evolutionary process.

The classical symptoms of a species in crisis include:
Increased aggression
Sexual dysfunction
And disease.


Ideals, Dreams, And cherished hopes rise within us only to meet the horrible truth. And be shattered.
