An ancient Hopi prophecy predicts the rise of a mysterious figure known as the 'True White Brother,' marked by a red cap, who would change the nation forever. Believed to be centuries old, the prophecy comes from the Hopi tribe of the southwestern US, whose wisdom has guided generations for over a thousand years. In 1992, spiritual elder Thomas Banyacya brought the prophecy to the United Nations, warning that during a time of great turmoil and rapid technological change, an individual bearing a symbolic 'red hat' would emerge, shaping the fate of the world. 'We were told that three helpers...

The claim that Marian devotion in Catholicism is derived from pagan goddess worship—specifically Ishtar, Diana, or Astarte—is a persistent but thoroughly discredited myth rooted in 19th-century anti-Catholic propaganda, most notably Alexander Hislop’s *The Two Babylons* (1853). This narrative, often recycled in modern social media and evangelical circles, alleges that Mary’s veneration as the Mother of God (Theotokos) or Queen of Heaven is a Christianized version of ancient pagan goddess cults. However, linguistic, historical, biblical, and cultural evidence reveals no connection. This compiled text is inspired by discussions with our fellow freepers and I hope offers a detailed, accessible refutation of...

Namaste away from the bad vibes. Thousands of yogis Om’ed together in Bryant Park Wednesday to shake off the bad juju that Mercury in retrograde wrought this summer — which manifested for some in injuries and bouts of inexplicable hysterics for some participants. The serenity-seeking fitness buffs were eagerly reaching for some “retroshade” in the aftermath of the rough near-month-long planet alignment, notoriously believed to cause misfortune by those into astrology. “Mercury retrograde usually is not a good time, but I guess the yoga helps to balance my emotion and the body as well. I hope this is going to...

Prophetess Katie Souza’s bio says she was a “career criminal most of her life,” being “convicted of a number of felonies and sent to federal prison to serve almost twelve years” before God saved her nearly twenty years ago. In reality, it should read that she’s still a career criminal, with her crimes no longer being drug possession and gun running, but rather a criminal mishandling of God’s word- certainly a theological felony- demonstrating that the grift never ended. After leaving prison, she wrote a bunch of books and founded Katie Souza Ministries. She now hosts the TV show ‘Healing...

A startling phenomenon has occurred in the Sea of Galilee, Israel, where patches of its surface have turned blood-red, sparking widespread concern and comparisons to a biblical plague. While the striking red hue has prompted widespread discussion, authorities have quickly offered a scientific explanation, reassuring the public that the waters remain safe.

Researchers and historians have long debated the claim that John Wilkes Booth was the assassin…and that there was a much darker truth to the story, involving a “deep state” conspiracy that the official history books will never tell us.
