The Prophecy
Ya know what disturbs me the most is that the Roman Catholic church isn't even trying to stop the prophecies from coming to fruition.
Not that God should ever be stopped. But seriously, the very fact, that they believe in them, and most recently, seem to be following them to a Tea. Ratzinger's choice of name, etc. choice of Ratzinger as pope, in light of his health, age, etc.
I hazard to Guarantee the Cardinals are scared to death of Malachi's prophecy, however, none will give up the "throne" to prevent it.
