The Last Prophecy

Peter Was the Christ

1. The Malachy Prophecy of the Popes

In 1139 Saint Malachy, an Irish archbishop, had a vision while in Rome after having been summoned there by Pope Innocent II. The prophecy essentially predicted the fall of the Catholic Church sometimes in the future, namely after Pope Benedict XVI's papacy (2022?).  

Perhaps it was a forewarning of things to come if the Church stayed the course it was on at the time, one which led to Pope Innocent III ordering the Massacre of Beziers and ensuing Cathar Genocide starting in 1209.

The prophecy was stored in the Vatican Secret Archives and rediscovered in 1590. The first part was likely adulterated prior to its publication. However, the post 1590 segment appears to have remained authentic. 

The last pope preceding the prophesied fall of the Church was described as 'Peter the Roman.'  Pope Francis named himself after St. Francis of Assisi who created the Franciscan Order in 1209 probably with the intention of giving refuge to Cathars fleeing persecution.  The Church may have dodged the prophecy but only for a time.

There is no denying that the Catholicism is at a time of great turmoil.  The Vatican has been drowning under the weight of the pedophilia scandals and residential schools saga of the last few decades. There are also stories of financial misconduct at the Vatican Bank, sexual deviancy, and the hiring of male prostitutes for people inside Vatican City (see Why did Pope Benedict Resign?).

2. The Other Malachi Prophecy -- The Third Secret of Fatima

This prophecy talks about an apostate heretic pope that would challenge the papacy and rock the very foundations of Christianity. Three days of darkness would be followed by a deep crisis of faith within the Church.

This video best explains the prophecy: Did Malachi Martin Leak The Real Third Secret Of Fatima?

3. The Cathar Prophecy of 2021

A thousand years ago, the Catholic Church committed a genocide against the Cathars, the spiritual branch of Christianity.

The last Perfecti leader burnt alive by the Catholic Church (1321) predicted that Cathars would return in 700 years (bottom of page) when "the laurel will grow green again." That would be around year 2021, or around the same time period as the Malachy Prophecy.

The Laurel Has Grown Green Again

Some Cathars survived the genocide without apparently anyone realizing. As of this date, August 2, 2021, none of the major sources of information on Catharism (Wikipedia, Cathar.info, the Catholic Church) seem to be aware of the existence of a place on Earth whose name literally translates in English to Land of the Cathars.

That land seems to have been hiding in plain sight.

Its main church is expiatory, meaning that it was built to atone for wrongdoings or that it has the divine power of clean-slate forgiveness (the wiping out of sins as if they had never occurred as opposed to simple forgiveness).  

Either way, it is one of the most significant church in Christendom.  It outshines even the Vatican.  Ironically, it was consecrated even before its completion by Pope Benedict XVI who had just been the head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, the office that was responsible over time for the fight against heresy, which began with the Cathar Genocide and continued as the various Catholic Inquisitions which are known for having cruelly tortured and burnt thousands alive.

Perhaps the rushed consecration and the double-pope episode were intended to thwart the Malachy and Cathar prophecies as, once a prediction is made, intentional actions may change their outcomes.  The Church is still standing, but it lost all moral authority when it committed a genocide and failed under Pope Francis to reconnect to the Cathar heritage.  

As if by magic, Cathars seem to have a country of their own, Cathar Launia, and a main Church fully consecrated by the papacy, the Cathar Vatican!

The Catholic Church has fallen.

It just does not know it yet!

4. The Jewish Prophecies

According to Jewish prophecy, which Jesus is supposed to be the fulfillment of, the messiah would be called Immanuel (Isaiah 7:14), meaning 'El (God) with us.'  This suggests that the savior would be an angel as their names usually end with el (e.g. Gabriel, Michael, Raphael, Uriel, etc.).  Neither Jesus nor Yeshua (its Hebrew translation) is an angelic name.  Furthermore, the latter means 'Yahweh is salvation,' which is different from the above, and El and Yahweh are two different gods (Esoterica.  How did Yahweh Become God? The Origins of Monotheism). 

The messiah would also be of Bethlehem in Judea. Jesus is clearly said to be of Nazareth in Israel.

5. The Christ vs Antichrist Prophecy

The word Christ in Christianity comes from a Greek word meaning anointed, or having sanctity. A thousand years ago, by its own admission the Catholic Church lacked sanctity and destroyed the branch of Christianity that had sanctity.

Mark 13:22: "for false christs and false prophets will arise, and will provide signs and wonders, in order to mislead."

The story becomes...

A thousand years ago, the forces of the Antichrist defeated those of the Christ. A thousand years later (2021), the latter (those that had sanctity) are back and re-emerging with their own Vatican, fully consecrated by the papacy, exposing the truth.

6. Jesus the Prophet

Most scholars agree that Jesus was an apocalyptic preacher. He professed that the end of the world was coming.

"And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, tell us, when shall these things be and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?" (Matthew 24:3)

Matthew 24:29-31:

Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken.

And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

"Truly I say to you,

this generation will not pass away until

 all these things take place." (Mark 13:30)

Jesus clearly prophesied that the end of the world would happen within a few decades. His prophecy did not come true. The messiah would save us, resurrecting the good, destroying evil, and ushering in an era of peace. That did not come true either. At the turn of the first millennium, he was nowhere in sight to save the Cathars, those who had sanctity. 

Jesus was neither a prophet nor a savior.

7. Jesus the Son of God

According to scriptures, both Jesus and Peter performed miracles, resurrected the dead, and died crucified. Which one was the Christ?

The earliest gospel was that of Mark (AD 65-70).  He was not one of the original twelve disciples. Written in Greek, the gospel begins with John baptizing Jesus and ends at Mark 16:8 with Mary finding Jesus's tomb empty (of him). There was no virgin birth (evidence of divinity), no resurrection per se--an empty tomb not being proof of it--no post-crucifixion sighting (actual evidence of resurrection), and no ascension. Mark 16:9-20 was fraudulently added later to some translations of the Bible.

There was no virgin birth, no resurrection per se,

no post-crucifixion sighting, and no ascension in the first gospel.  These are all pillars of Christianity.

It is unthinkable that a story about Jesus,

written some 30 years after his death, would not have these.

The Gospel of Matthew (AD 80-90), despite his being a disciple, is not an original first-hand account but a rewrite of Mark's with massive embellishments, among them the virgin birth like Melchizedek (divine priesthood) and sightings after his death. Mark could only have known about them had they taken place! These embellishments essentially raised Jesus to the status of God and empowered the Church immensely.

'Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners...' (Hail Mary prayer).

Luke's gospel (AD 85) is based on Matthew's, hence problematic.  Luke 24:49 describes Jesus's last words just before he ascended to Heaven as, "And behold, I am sending the promise of My Father upon you; but you are to stay in the city until you are clothed with power from on high."

The fact that this is absent from the first two gospels suggests that it is a fraudulent addition, especially given that the issue is fundamental to Christianity, being the fulfillment of John the Baptist's prophecy.  

John 20:19-23 describes Jesus breathing the Holy Spirit onto his disciples after his resurrection and before his ascension.  This is not in the first two gospels either, suggesting a fraudulent addition, and squarely contradicts Acts 1 and Acts 2 (the Pentecost), which describe Peter and the apostles receiving the Spirit in the absence of Jesus after his ascension.  John is not celebrated while the Pentecost is still commemorated to this day.

As late as Matthew's writing, 

no gospel had claimed that Jesus had given anyone the Spirit.  

The fact that Jesus did not, himself, baptize his disciples with the Spirit suggests that he did not himself have to power to give the Spirit.  

John's gospel (AD 90-100) is an evangelical book, a work of advocacy rather than a historical account. It is replete with additions, exaggerations, and biased interpretations typical of preachers as opposed to impartial historians. So are many of the various epistles of the New Testament. It is the only gospel telling the stories of Jesus turning water into wine and of Lazarus being resurrected, both famous miracles.

There are 4 gospels but only 2 narratives (Mark's and John's) as Matthew's and Luke's works are embellished versions of Mark's story (synoptic gospels). Mark's has 20 miracles; Matthew and Luke add to it respectively 5 and 8 new ones ("The 37 Miracles of Jesus in Chronological Order." Sunny Hills Church, retrieved 22 November 2024, https://sunnyhillschurch.com/3301/the-37-miracles-of-jesus-in-chronological-order/.). Neither narrative includes the miraculous birth, confirming the fraudulence of Matthew's gospel.

The synoptic narrative contains 31 different miracles. John's features only 8, 6 of which are not in any other gospel, hence likely to be fraudulent. As the last gospel, John's would normally be the most comprehensive. It matches only 2 miracles of the synoptic narrative, leaving 29 out of 31 as potentially fraudulent. Furthermore, one of the two (Mark 6:33-44) does not actually describe Jesus doing anything miraculous, leaving only 1 (Mark 6:45-52). If 29 out of 30 miracles (96.6%) were probably false, it is also likely fraudulent.

The resurrection is absolutely central to Christianity. There was no post-crucifixion sighting in Mark's gospel. Matthew and Luke embellished their works with respectively 2 (Matthew 28:8-10, Matthew 28:16-20) and 3 sightings (Luke 24:13-31, Luke 24:30-34, Luke 24:50-51). John added another 4 (John 20:11-18, John 20:19-25, John 20:26-29, John 21:1-14). As none of the 9 sightings match each other, in addition to their not being in Mark's original text, they are likely to be also fraudulent.

The Ascension, which occurred in the infamous town of Bethany (see below) and is fundamental to Christianity, is absent from the first two gospels, Mark's and Matthew's, hence very likely to be a fraudulent addition.

The gospels taught by the Church were highly corrupted,

 if based on a historical figure. 

As the embellishments made the Jesus story and the Church much more powerful,

 the corruption was likely for power.

Despite the above and the fact that all gospels are unsigned and of unconfirmed authorship,

the Church routinely refers to them as the Word of God!

8. The Gospel of Peter

Like Jesus, Peter preached, made miracles, resurrected someone (Tabitha, Acts 9:36), healed the sick, suffered, and died of crucifixion. He even walked on water according to Matthew (Matthew 14:22–34). He was widely recognized as leader of the apostles and the Church after Jesus died and held the Keys of Heaven.

"The primacy of the bishop of Rome is largely derived from his role as the apostolic successor to Saint Peter, to whom primacy was conferred by Jesus, who gave Peter the Keys of Heaven..." ("Pope." Wikipedia, 28 January 2024, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope.).

The apocryphal Gospel of Peter suggests that the resurrection was faked. In the night before the visit of Mary Magdalene to Jesus's grave, two men came, dragged a third (Jesus) out of the tomb, while a fourth carrying a cross followed. The fourth would therefore have been inside the tomb with Jesus and, presumably, rolled the stone out from the interior. Later, a fifth man went into the cave, probably the young man that Mary saw. This fits perfectly with Mark's gospel. As such, Peter's narrative seem to be a natural companion to Mark's writings (see also Mark’s Relationship With Peter Was the Foundation for His Gospel).

The Gospel of Peter (3-42) also states: "And they heard a voice from the heavens, saying, 'Have you proclaimed [preached] to those who sleep?' And a response was heard from the cross: 'Yes!'" ("The Gospel of Peter." Gospels.net, n.d., https://www.gospels.net/peter.). Those sleeping were the guards, who were therefore Christians, and the man entombed with Jesus was a preacher, making the guards and some of the early ministers complicit in the fraud. In fact, Pilate had provided guards for the tomb to specifically prevent people from stealing the body and claiming resurrection (Matthew 27:62-66).

Jesus knew that Judas would betray him presumably not because he, himself, was a prophet but because he had planned it. This is supported by Jesus's anointing by Mary of Bethany (believed to be a prostitute) instead of by the Spirit and the insistence that he had to fulfill the scriptures (Mark 14:3 & 14:49). Incidentally, Lazarus was actually a friend of Jesus and Mary's brother, significantly increasing the odds of his resurrection having been faked. Both events occur shortly before Jesus's arrest. In the apocryphal Gospel of Judas, which reports on conversations happening only days before Jesus's apprehension, his betrayal was described as if by design.

In addition, the last words of Jesus were: “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?” (Mark 15:34).  Jesus cannot be the anointed (i.e. the Christ) if God has forsaken him, quite the opposite.

Jesus was not the Christ.

Presumably, Jesus faked his death on the cross. He was entombed with someone to tend to his wounds with the intention of reappearing later to his disciples as if returning from the dead, just as Pilate had feared.

Of all the events that transpired 2,000 years ago, two major religions presumably emerged. The main one seems to be based on a blasphemous fraud, a planned faking of the resurrection, and a god that appears to despise women and whose first fruits are virgin males (Revelation 14:4).

The end game in John's prophecy is the gift of the Spirit. In Acts 8:14-24 Peter together with John are described as laying hands on someone who then receives the Spirit.

Peter had the power to give the Holy Spirit.

According to the Bible, Peter renounced Jesus three times.  Presumably, he did not want any part in a massive act of blasphemy.  A threefold denial is symbolically significant, usually interpreted as total or final.

How could the first pope and leader of the Church leave no official gospel? 1 Peter & 2 Peter are believed to be inauthentic by most scholars.  How did Peter, a guy who renounced Jesus the Son of God, end up with the Keys of Heaven and uncontested leader of the Church?

If you are waiting for the resurrection,

you may have to wait for a long time.

If you want to go to Heaven,

Peter is the one who has the keys!

Simon Magus (the 'bad Samaritan') was a religious leader who converted people through magic tricks. In Acts 8, he offered money to Peter for the power of the Spirit, suggesting it was real as a magician would have seen through trickery, but was rejected. In the apocryphal Acts of Peter, Simon's deception is exposed when Peter, with 'God's magic,' crashes him while he attempts flying.

By renouncing Jesus three times,

Peter became an apostle (apost-asy, apostolic).

After Jesus's death, his disciples became known as apostles.*

Peter followed the truth.

His gospel exposed the trickery of Jesus just as his acts did that of Simon.

Christianity promises the Resurrection of the Dead.

If Jesus did not himself resurrect, there is no reason to believe that

the Resurrection of the Dead can or will ever occur.

[* The word 'apostle' is used only once in Mark's and Matthew's gospels and never in John's despite having been written last. Compare this to 'disciple.']

Christianity based its narrative on secondary gospels whose authorship is uncertain and whose source, Mark, was not an original disciple or apostle. It does not describe a story of divinity, resurrection, and bestowing of the Spirit by Jesus. Of them, only one was based on a first-hand account of an apostle, John's, written late and with little concern for historical accuracy.

The papal canon relies on secondary anonymous sources.

It has nothing written by Jesus--the central figure of Christianity--and

only two letters from Peter (believed by scholars to be inauthentic),

the second most important figure in Christendom

and leader of Jesus's apostles and the early Church after his death.

The gospels of Peter (which shows Jesus faking the resurrection), Mary (an important eyewitness), Thomas (Jesus's sayings), and Judas, the antagonist (Gospels.net), on the other hand, are all based on people who had known Jesus personally (apostles and Mary) and contain essentially no accounts of miracles. We know of this primary canon because these eyewitness accounts were hidden by various sources and rediscovered in the last 200 years, not because of the Church had carefully preserved them in its archives.

The Church rejected the Primary Canon which

is based on direct apostolic eyewitness accounts.

It chose instead a canon is based on anonymous secondary sources

full of fantastical stories of miracles.

Over the centuries, science has demonstrated that miracles that

defy the laws of physics cannot happen in a real world.

9. The Lord of Heaven

This brings us to Gerasa (Gadara in original version) where Jesus meets a naked man who lived in a cemetery, spoke to the dead, and was possessed by a legion of demons (Mark 5). He attempts to exorcise him, but at their suggestion not to send them out of the region, he sends them instead into pigs, which immediately run over a cliff and die, resulting in a massive loss of food and revenue for the local gentile community and leading to his expulsion from the region and being told never to come back. In Mark 14, a young man tries to follow after Jesus is arrested at Gethsemane, but, in a struggle with the guards, loses his garment before getting away naked.

In Gerasa Jesus, the Son of God,

was mocked and sent packing.

Demonology 101: Do not follow the advice of demons! Instead of being forced out of the flesh (an exorcism), Jesus 'gave them permission' to enter pigs. After having been released by death, the 2,000 demons were free to possess any human, 2,000 of them instead of just one, a terrifying prospect for the locals.

For someone to still be standing while being possessed by 2,000 demons points to a person of extraordinary strength, perhaps an angel or a god. He was not possessed because he was weak but presumably because he was their archenemy. He asked to follow Jesus, but instead the latter made him his witness for the Decapolis region, i.e. a senior figure equivalent to his disciples (see Acts 1). Note that the apostles' elevation to 'witnesses' in Acts may be an addition as the event is not reported in any of the gospels, leaving the Gerasene as perhaps the only witness officially appointed by Jesus.

The Decapolis was part Nabataean. The two top gods of the Nabataean pantheon were Dushara (Lord of the Mountains or Dushara from Petra, also known as Roman Dis Pater, Rex Infernus, and Hades, the god of the dead) and Baalshamin, the Lord of Heaven (Roman Ju-piter, or Sky Peter). Peter had the keys to Heaven! Peter is also the masculine of Petra, the name of the Nabataean capital.

Dushara was divinely associated with justice, hence Zedekian (divine priesthood). The last Zedek to be found in the Bible was Adonizedek (meaning king of justice), the King of Jerusalem who died in a genocide where 12,000 men and woman were killed by Israelites under Joshua. The town where it happened is now called Ai (Canaan), or heap of ruins.

Strangely enough, the Gerasene episode was interpreted by Thomas Aquinas (a foremost Dominican medieval theologian) as Christians having "no duty to animals", which explains why Christianity dropped the ball on the environment.

The Three Branches of Christianity

From the maelstrom of first century Christianity emerged three branches (Christian Denominations Family Tree). The Jewish Christian branch was associated with James, the brother of Jesus, and followed Mosaic laws and customs. It went extinct but formed part of the foundations of Islam later on.  

The main branch was led by Paul, formerly Saul, a persecutor of Christians (see Acts 8). Persecution at that time ranged from expulsions and imprisonment to torture and execution. It followed the corrupt Gospel of Matthew, himself, an ex-tax collector. Paul (neither a disciple nor an apostle) went from anti-Christian persecutor (sending many to be tortured and killed) to leading Christianity after a conversion preceded by three days of darkness (blindness). You would expect a new convert to start at the bottom, especially if they were complicit in torture and murder. This Paulinist-Matthewsian branch, which ends with an apocalypse, was religious and, eventually, the one mainly professed by the Catholic Church.

It sells the resurrection, which brings you back to life in your old body for eternity, according to Christianity.  If you died at 90 years old, this is not entirely desirable. 

There are 3 instances of resurrection in the Old Testament (1 Kings 17:17-24, 2 Kings 4:18-37, 2 Kings 13:20-21).  All of them could have been comas mistaken for death, and none of the resurrected lived eternally.  

If there is no eternity, you die again and it is game over.  Your body is biological.   In the real world, eternity in a carnal body is biologically impossible.

The Gnostic branch was connected to Peter and the Essenes who had particular interests in angels and spirits.  Acts 2 clearly connects Peter to the Spirit and leadership of the Twelve. Acts 8: 9-25 (Simon Magus) describes Peter bestowing the Spirit onto people by laying hands on them. 

So, Peter would have been the one baptizing with the Spirit that John the Baptist prophesied about, not Jesus. This Peterian Pentecostal branch was spiritual and probably the main root of Catharism, the other half of Christianity. The story becomes...

The Essenes believed in reincarnation.  The phenomenon occurs through rebirth, i.e. via normal pregnancies, and can do so over and over again, supporting eternal life without violation of the laws of physics.  The question is, does the spirit exist and can it transmigrate into another body?  The Gerasene and Pentacost stories support that.  So does the the lore of many religions and cultures as well as such things as out of body experiences (OBE).

According to a personal source, the Conference of Bishops removed the idea of reincarnation from the New Testament at the First Council of Nicaea (AD 325). Presumably, all references to it and copies of Peter's gospel were destroyed in its wake, except for one successfully hidden for two thousand years by the Essenes (the Dead Sea Scrolls).

John the Baptist was the prophet.

The baptism with the Spirit was the prophecy (Mark 1:8).

John never prophesied the coming of the son of God.

Jesus was a follower of John.

He spoke of his prophecy but neither originated it nor fulfilled it.

He never gave the Spirit to anyone!

Peter was the one who fulfilled the prophecy

by bestowing the Spirit (Acts 8).

He would have been the anointed one.

The facts that Jesus faked the crucifixion/resurrection

and became worshipped as God suggest that

he took the deal when tempted in the wilderness.

And, so did many who chose power

and taught scriptures that were fraudulent.

About 900 years after the First Council of Nicaea, Pope Innocent III declared a war against heresy and led the Catholic Church into committing a genocide against the Cathars (Peter's Apostolic Spiritual Church which followed the Spirit and rejected the resurrection), a genocide that begins with the massacre of 20,000 innocents (pacifist vegetarians) "regardless of rank, age, or sex" and ends after several hundred years of persecution of the Cathars and others (pagans, spirituals, healers, scientists, etc.) with the last Inquisition.

Assuming families of four, 10,000 children were murdered in the Beziers Massacre alone. How do you kill 5-year-olds, trample them with horses and leave them to die slowly, bash their heads with stones, or did the Cistercian blades cut their small bodies in half?

10. The Fall of Archangel Gabriel

Luke's gospel names Gabriel as the angel that announced to Mary she would conceive a son by the Holy Spirit (Luke 1:26-38). If miracles don't exist, as science would suggest, the story really is:

'Archangel Gabriel visits Mary; nine months later she gives birth to a son,' making Gabriel a fallen angel. In Islam, Gabriel (Jibril or Jibrail) is held to be the Holy Spirit and the angel who imparted the Koran to prophet Muhammad!

The Truth About Islam

Islam was created some 600 years after Christianity began. It recognizes Jesus as a prophet but rejects his divinity and the resurrection. Some modern scholars have done an excellent job of looking at historical evidence for Islam, among them, Al Fadi (Founder of CIRA International, Center for Islamic Research and Awareness), Dr. Jay Smith (PfanderFilms), a scholar known for his focus on Islamic polemics, and Dan Gibson, a Canadian historian specializing in the 'early history of Arabia and Islam.'

The following is a selection of videos that provides a good overview for Muslims and others of the problems with the standard Islamic narrative. While the titles may appear be similar, each addresses specific points. More details are available at their websites and Youtube channels.

"Intro to Dan Gibson - Early Islamic History Ep. 1"

A short introduction. Muhammad 'had nothing to do' with the emergence of Islam. He was a 'raider,' a 'brigand.' The Koran is based on oral traditions, which are generally embellished.

"Dan Gibson's Latest Discoveries 4 - Origin of the Quran"

The truth about the origin of the Koran.

"The Unknown History of Islam 01 - Timeline of Islam"

How the Koran was 'man-made' and put together 201 years after Muhammad's passing. The Hadith itself was assembled after 240 years from thousands of sayings and acts of Muhammad, of which only 2% were kept.

"The Unknown History of Islam 04 - Modern Mecca, Ancient Qibla"

The current Mecca has no artifacts or ruins normally associated with a historical city. Based on the qiblas (prayer direction) in early mosques, the original Kaaba was in Petra, not southern Arabia.

"The Qur’an’s FAKE History! - Creating the Qur’an with Dr. Jay - Episode 30"

"No first-century (after Muhammad) witness ever mentions the Qur’an or any sort of text that was shared among Allah’s followers. Besides that, the histories of the time never mention Muhammad. That is certainly bizarre if he was indeed a real prophet.

"Al Fadi interviews Jay on NEW DISTURBING RESEARCH on the Qur'an's Qira'ats (pt-1)"

There were and still are several Korans. In the standard Islamic narrative, the Koran is supposedly perfect and eternal.

"Islam is based on IDOLATRY! - More Meccan Problems with Dr. Jay - Episode 7"

The black stone of Kaaba, believed to have the power of redeeming sins, is central to Islam. A stone is an inanimate object. The worship of objects is pure idolatry.

"4 reasons why MUHAMMAD cannot be a BIBLICAL PROPHET!"

Muhammad was a descendant of Ishmael, but God's covenant was the line of Isaac, the true son of Abraham. The Koranic Jesus does not have the same name and story as in the Bible. Muhammad did not do any miracle or prophecy and did not know the name YHWH of the Old Testament.

"The Satanic Verses - Fact or Fiction? Al Fadi & Rob Christian"

The controversy stemmed from Muhammad second-guessing himself and removing several verses of the Koran claiming he had been deceived by Satan. This puts the whole Koran into question... how many other instances of Satanic verses could there be?

Fallen Angels

When angels fall from Heaven, their world becomes mundane or materialistic from being cut off from a higher spiritual source. The Eucharist, a Christian ritual representing the communion with God, reflects that. At the last supper (Mark 14:22-24), Jesus gives a piece of bread to his disciples stating that it represented his body. He then raises his glass, saying that the wine represented his blood.

Both are physical matter, rather than part material part spirit as in body and soul or body and spirit. The bread represents the material body, but the wine fails to point to the spirit, the connection to God. Compare this to the prophecy of John, who himself baptised with material water, that one mightier than him would do so with the Holy Spirit.

Ironically, wine is a low-alcohol spirit.

A central part of Islam is the veneration of the Black Stone of Mecca. The ritual goes back to pre-Islamic times, and Muslims believe that touching the stone can erase sins. Physical objects certainly cannot forgive sins. In Abrahamic religions, only God or appropriate religious appointees can absolve transgressions. Furthermore, the ritual would be bypassing God's judgement and sacrilegious for it.

The forgiveness of sins is a divine prerogative.

The worship of inanimate objects in the belief that

they have divine powers is pure idolatry.

The traditions that Muslims follow have led them to venerate a material object.

Ironically, the name Peter,

as in the guy who has the Keys of Heaven,

means stone.

The scriptures they call the 'word of God' are anything but. The gospels may be 96.6% false. The Koran may have been dictated by a fallen angel, and the veracity of its contents is highly questionable as are many of the facts concerning Muhammad. Without authoritative scriptures, a religion has no foundation, and those that profess them as if they were the truth are false leaders.

On the authority of scriptures they call the 'word of God,'

Church leaders have killed hundreds of thousands of innocent Cathars

and burnt their ascetic leaders at the stake (The Cathar Genocide).

On the authority of scriptures they call the 'word of God,'

Jihadists and Islamists murder innocents and profess genocide

with little if any condemnation from Muslim clerics.

It is said about Satan that when he fell from Heaven

he took a third (33%) of the angels with him.

It is estimated that in 2022 about 31.6% of the world

population were Christians and 25.8% were Muslim (Statista).

11. The Laurel Growing Green Again

There are pockets of Cathars here in there in Northern Italy, France, and Spain still practicing their religion but mostly underground, and very likely some secret societies as well. Many on the Perfecti path found safety among the Franciscan friars, an order created by Francis of Assisi in 1209, the year of the Beziers Massacre.

They were of the more controversial spiritual faction of the Franciscans and believed in the vow of poverty at a time when the papacy was filthy rich and powerful, in science, and in three epoch: the Age of the Father, the Age of the Son, and the Age of the Spirit which began in 1260 and in which an "Order of the Just, composed of contemplatives and preachers, would supersede the institutional worldly Church" (Esoterica, How Alchemy was a Weapon Against the Anti-Christ - the Apocalyptic Prophecies of John of Rupescissa). The final showdown between good and evil would feature an angelic pope facing off against the Antichrist.

Many Cathars were made landless by the Catholic crusade and ended up as migrant labour not always sure when they would eat--a cruel fate especially for the children. They would be virtually indistinguishable from today's Roma, and perhaps part of them also. Isn't it the fate you would expect to befall the 'children of God' in a profane world?

Like many of the destitute of Europe, an unknown number of them probably moved to North America after its discovery, hoping for a second chance. Many must have ended up in Quebec (the Invisible Minority of Canada), or other French-speaking parts of the continent. Quebec's national day on June 24th honours John the Baptist. Its two major shrines honour Joseph (Oratoire Saint Joseph) and Mary Magdalene (Cap de la Madeleine). In contrast, the Bogomils, a sister religion, honours the 'Blessed Virgin.'
