MALACHY PREDICTED THE NAME OF EVERY POPE FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS.

THE PROPHECY ACCURATELY PREDICTED THE NAME OF RATZINGER - BENEDICT.

ACCORDING TO THE PROPHECY, THE NEXT POPE WILL BE POPE PETER.

AND DURING HIS REIGN, ROME IS UTTERLY DESTROYED.

GULP.

HUFFPO:

The "Prophecy of the Popes" is attributed to St. Malachy, an Irish archbishop who was canonized a saint in 1190, according to Discovery News. In his predication, dated 1139, Malachy prophesied that there would be 112 more popes before Judgment Day. Benedict is supposedly the 111th pope.

The foretelling offers brief descriptions about each pope, and some of them appear to align with reality in some way. For example, Benedict is apparently denoted as the "glory of the olive," and the Olivetans are affiliated with Benedictine Order, NBC Newsnotes.

Curiously, the "Prophecy of Popes" stops at the 112th pope and ends with a cryptic warning of doomsday.

In the extreme persecution of the Holy Roman Church, there will sit ... Peter the Roman, who will pasture his sheep in many tribulations: and when these things are finished, the city of seven hills will be destroyed, and the terrible judge will judge his people. The End.

Following Benedict's resignation, theorists began questioning if Malachy might actually be right.

However, although Cardinal Peter Turkson of Ghana might bear the same name as the person mentioned in the prophecy, there are no Roman-born cardinals in the running to be Benedict's successor.

"There are no Pietros among the living cardinals; two Pierres (as second name): Nasrallah Pierre Sfeir and Jean-Pierre Ricard; and one Pedro: Rubiano Sáenz," according to librarian Salvador Miranda, creator and producer of the website The Cardinals of the Holy Roman Church.

FWIW: PETER TURKSON IS THE FAVORITE RIGHT NOW.

EXAMINE HIS LAST NAME:

TURK-SON.

TURKEY IS WHERE BYZANTIUM WAS.

BYZANTIUM IS AN HISTORIOGRPAHIC NAME.

THE PEOPLE LIVING THERE WERE ALL CHRISTIANS BEFORE HE MUSLIMS INVADED.

AND THEY CALLED THEIR COUNTRY THE ROMAN EMPIRE.

TURKSON IS ROMANUS.
