Some interpretations of prophecy indicate that Catholicism and Islam will unite to take over the world, so I can’t ignor the possibility the pope might have done this.

Haven’t heard that one, but I have heard that the various Christian churches would be unified under the Pope before the Great Apostasy; it’s this unity that would attract the Jews. I’ve also heard Islam described as a a further decay of the Arian heresy, combined with some syncretism. So one might draw the syllogism that even Muslims would unify.

ALTERNATELY, I’ve read that in the rebuilt Temple, the Sabbath would be celebrated for three straight days. The Muslim Friday, Jewish Saturday and Christian Sunday?

That may be the dumbest thing I've ever read on FR.

No LEGITIMATE or VALID interpretation of prophecy indicates that Catholicism and Islam will unite to take over the world. NONE.

First I had heard of this.

What particular prophecy is so interpreted and advocated by whom?

some interpretations of prophecy say that the many headed beast that is non-denominational groups will unite with Islam -- after all they (the non-denoms) have moved away from orthodoxy and some have even started rejecting the Trinity etc. as they move farther and farther away.

Only those groups that reject Jesus Christ as Lord, God and Savior will be the many-headed beast -- that will not include Catholics/Orthodox or the "Christ is God" believing non-Catholics
