And you know, we're we're 80 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,359 Speaker 1: we're trying to be very careful with our thoughts and 81 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,359 Speaker 1: words where we're in here, and it's because we have 82 00:04:56,440 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 1: you in mind.

Let's try and make this 87 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 1: next one not suck as much. I know we said 88 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 1: that about every time. Uh No, you're right, You're right, Matt. 89 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 1: That's what that's what we can bring in this classic 90 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 1: episode we thought would be interesting to to share with 91 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 1: everyone because we talk about famous alleged profits Nostro Damis, 92 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:41,480 Speaker 1: Edgar Casey, Baba vanga um, and we talk about something 93 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:44,119 Speaker 1: that people have been trying to do for a long 94 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 1: long time, which is to have some sort of perspective on, 95 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:52,719 Speaker 1: or even control over the chaos and uncertainty that the 96 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,640 Speaker 1: coming years or days will bring. One thing we can 97 00:05:55,720 --> 00:06:01,600 Speaker 1: say for certain is that we being so immensely fortunate 98 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 1: to be part of this show. We we all uh 99 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 1: we we all know predictions are a little silly, and 100 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 1: I don't know about you guys, but when we have 101 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:15,280 Speaker 1: we've talked before about making a prediction episode and it's 102 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:18,360 Speaker 1: just playing with live fire. But I think we can 103 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 1: safely say. Um, one of the last things my mom 104 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:26,279 Speaker 1: actually said to me, which is we'll get through this together. 105 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 1: You're here from UFOs to psychic powers. Since government conspiracies 106 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 1: history is riddled with unexplained events. You can turn back 107 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 1: now or learn the stuff they don't want you to know. Hello, 108 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 1: welcome back to the show.

We are 115 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 1: I believe we are the last show recording for the year. 116 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 1: We're on the cusp. Gentleman. That is correct, as long 117 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: as we finish after Jonathan finishes his session. That's happening 118 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: simultaneously theoretically. Theoretically yes, which means that by the time 119 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 1: you hear this, it will be twenty sixteen.

You're the Walter White. 125 00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 1: I'm kind of wood shopping and I don't know if 126 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 1: I'm ready to try it out, it's quite yet. I 127 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 1: feel as though I jumped the gun and dropping that 128 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: slogan apologies to well, this is uh, this is the 129 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 1: one time of year we're ball dropping is not only 130 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 1: cool but a television events. So happy New Year to 131 00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 1: you guys. So today, whether or not we are the 132 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 1: last podcast, we are definitely the first podcast for stuff 133 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 1: they want, you know, twenty sixteen and today we're talking 134 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 1: about something that's somewhat apropos Is that correct? Yes, we're 135 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:33,560 Speaker 1: talking about profits and the seeing into the future and 136 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:38,720 Speaker 1: predicting things that are to come. Maybe perhaps yes, an 137 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:44,440 Speaker 1: idea that goes back to the earliest days of religion, right, Uh, 138 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:50,200 Speaker 1: the oracle of Delphi, where where in these priestesses would 139 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:54,960 Speaker 1: sit over a fissure in the earth on a tripod 140 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 1: kind of stool and breathing the fumes from this fissure 141 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 1: and with for predictions about what was to come. That's 142 00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 1: a that is a very cool image and I wish 143 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:12,319 Speaker 1: I could have seen that. Right. Funny story about the 144 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 1: famous oracles at Delphi is that the predictions or mutterings 145 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 1: of these priestesses were interpreted by their uh, we'll find. Yeah, 146 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:28,839 Speaker 1: this is a commonality that we will seem among different profits. 147 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: And I should note that the people who were performing 148 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:36,319 Speaker 1: these acts of divination, those were the specifically the oracles. 149 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:40,000 Speaker 1: So the English word prophecy appears in Europe in the 150 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 1: mid twelve hundreds twelve twelve twenty, and it comes from 151 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 1: the French the twelfth century word prophecy. So you can 152 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 1: see where they're connected. This goes all the way back 153 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:59,480 Speaker 1: to the Greek um. This comes from a word that's profema, 154 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 1: which mean to say beforehand, to to foretell. So what 155 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 1: what we see is that even before then people have 156 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,880 Speaker 1: been making predictions right. Well, yeah, it's a fun thing 157 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 1: to do, right to just for an everyday human being, 158 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:18,559 Speaker 1: all of you sitting in your cars or whatever you're 159 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,560 Speaker 1: doing running, It's kind of fun to think what is 160 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:24,840 Speaker 1: going to happen in the next five years, maybe the 161 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 1: next hundred years, just for someone who doesn't even have 162 00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,880 Speaker 1: any kind of powers or you know, it is in 163 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 1: touch with some greater thing. Uh. I like to do it. 164 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 1: I like to sit around and go, oh, man, I 165 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 1: can see this happening in the next World war. So 166 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 1: is there is there a connection ben between the word 167 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 1: prophecy and the idea of prophecy for telling the future, 168 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 1: and the idea of like professing something or speaking out 169 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:52,080 Speaker 1: about something, or being a professor for example, like someone 170 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 1: who teaches you. Uh No, that's that's an interesting question 171 00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:01,599 Speaker 1: because the idea of a prophet, it's not necessarily prophecy, 172 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 1: but profit itself is sort of one who speaks for 173 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 1: the gods. So it does have the to speak for right, 174 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:18,440 Speaker 1: So professor would be more like declare publicly, if that 175 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 1: makes sense. So there is a relationship there, But I 176 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 1: don't know if a professor is necessarily speaking for God 177 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:32,360 Speaker 1: or by divine inspiration. Have you guys ever seen a 178 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:37,079 Speaker 1: prophetic professor like on the streets walking around in the city. Yeah, 179 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 1: there is a There is a group of people now 180 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 1: who are um pamphleting the streets regarding cell phone use 181 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 1: and cancer the w h O World Health Organization. But 182 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 1: what I was going to say, though, is I don't 183 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 1: want to misl you listeners by thinking the prophecy is 184 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 1: a Western thing. It should go without saying what we're 185 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 1: going to say it anyway, to be fair, that prophecy exists. 186 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:08,680 Speaker 1: It probably predates writing because one of the earliest things 187 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 1: that man tried to do, or humankind tried to do rather, 188 00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:16,960 Speaker 1: would be to forecast the movements of the heavens and 189 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:20,840 Speaker 1: to see if there were any correlation between the movements 190 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:24,679 Speaker 1: of the sky and the movements on the ground. And 191 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 1: most of the earliest civilizations, many of which have been 192 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 1: lost to time, were oral traditions. So this had to 193 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 1: exist before the Western world. I mean, we can't be that, 194 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 1: you know, Western centric, but the stuff we're going to 195 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 1: hear about usually concerns the Western world, and we'd like 196 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:49,679 Speaker 1: to take a look at several world famous profits today. 197 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:53,040 Speaker 1: This is our this is kind of our prediction show too, Hi, guys. 198 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 1: I was going to add it, you know, speaking of 199 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 1: not being originated in the Western world necessarily. I mean 200 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:00,880 Speaker 1: I was thinking about the idea of like casting bones 201 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 1: or like looking at you know, in trails and things 202 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 1: like that and trying to figure out what the future is, 203 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 1: and I was just looking up oracle bones. Apparently that 204 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 1: goes as far back as like the Shang dynasty, which 205 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:16,000 Speaker 1: was around b C. And so they found, you know, 206 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:18,319 Speaker 1: examples of these oracle bones that were used to kind 207 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 1: of like see into the future and things like looking 208 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:25,559 Speaker 1: into flames, you know, for example, Yeah, that's divination rituals. 209 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 1: That's that's great. I wonder if that would also make 210 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 1: almost a separate show on its own too, because you know, 211 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 1: reading the liver or the entrails of a goat, or 212 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:38,040 Speaker 1: the tea leaves, you know, the tea leaves of course, 213 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 1: and oh there's so many other different methods, and one 214 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:46,319 Speaker 1: of which, if you live in the US you may 215 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 1: be surprised to find is still practiced today in the 216 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:52,120 Speaker 1: modern age. Can anyone guess what it is? Listeners will 217 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 1: give you a chance, you guys, are I would think 218 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:57,719 Speaker 1: it was the palms reading of palms or terroris? Oh, 219 00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 1: it's groundhog Day. It's the one every one participates in. Yeah, 220 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 1: it's funny, even though it's completely bunk. I ever, tell 221 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 1: you have several members of my family who lived in Punkstani. 222 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:13,439 Speaker 1: No you didn't. Yeah? Can they still call him punk 223 00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 1: Satani Phil? Or do they him a new name? I 224 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 1: don't like the Georgia Bulldogs. Bulldog when it dies? That 225 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 1: give add a number to it? Like I'm pretty sure? Okay, Wow, 226 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 1: I'm gonna I might be completely incorrect. The last time 227 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 1: I was there, it was still punk satani Phille and 228 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 1: it was not the original right. Oh yeah, it's like 229 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 1: the Marlborough Man, right exactly or Zoros. So let's let's 230 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 1: get a few things out of the way before we 231 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 1: delve into this. If you've already checked out our video 232 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,400 Speaker 1: on prophecy, then you know some of what we're going 233 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 1: to talk about. We're going to mention some specific alleged 234 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 1: profits or would be profits or people who thought they 235 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 1: were profits. And then we're also going to look at 236 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 1: some of the stuff they said or again allegedly said, 237 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 1: and whether it measured is up. So first things first, 238 00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:06,240 Speaker 1: one of the big questions that you might have is, well, 239 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:10,600 Speaker 1: if there are true profits, and if they are true 240 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:19,160 Speaker 1: specific prognostications or whatever of future events, then why do 241 00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:22,120 Speaker 1: these future events occur if they're still disasters? If someone 242 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 1: says the Titanic is going to sink, yeah, somebody's gonna 243 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:28,960 Speaker 1: stop that from happening, right, because now we know, right, 244 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 1: or do we? And why is? Why is it's what's 245 00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:36,960 Speaker 1: the old quotation we see through the class darkly or something? 246 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 1: Why Why does so much of what is called prophecies 247 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 1: seem to be kind of vague? I mean, not to 248 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 1: mention like time travel tropes and books and television. I mean, 249 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 1: you can't do it. You can't keep Hitler from being born. 250 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 1: You know, you can't keep Kennedy from being assassinated. It's 251 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 1: never gonna work. Something's always going to crop up against 252 00:15:56,480 --> 00:16:00,440 Speaker 1: you and you're gonna fail. Yeah, like that. So that's 253 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 1: a perfect point to you know, what is the nature 254 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 1: of the presence relationship with the future, right is it? 255 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 1: Is it possible? There's a great thing in um Stephen 256 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 1: King book, And I know Stephen King is divisive for 257 00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 1: some people, but he wrote this book about someone who 258 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 1: tries to go back in time and stop the Kennedy assassinations. Yeah, 259 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 1: there's a great line in there. Always says the past 260 00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 1: is obdurate, which which means that this guy is going 261 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:31,080 Speaker 1: back in time and he's trying to change certain things. 262 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 1: But even the little things are really really hard to change. Yeah, 263 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 1: it will not it's it will not be changed. It 264 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 1: resists change. Because this is the only time, probably in 265 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 1: my life, I've been able to use this statement correctly. 266 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 1: It is what it is. That's that's it. That's the 267 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:49,960 Speaker 1: only time. So all right, so let's let's talk about 268 00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 1: some of those problems with prophecy. Skeptics like James Randy 269 00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 1: will tell us that most prophecies only become predictive in 270 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 1: the eyes of p people looking back in reference to 271 00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:05,240 Speaker 1: something that already happened. Well, we mean it's some kind 272 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 1: of postdiction, some retroactive divination, right, Yeah, they're translated in 273 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:15,080 Speaker 1: a way that makes sense to the recent events around them, 274 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:19,959 Speaker 1: exactly exactly. So with with that in mind, what we hope, 275 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 1: what we hope to explore today is whether there are 276 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:27,399 Speaker 1: prophecies that clearly delineated something that happened in the future, 277 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:31,359 Speaker 1: whether there were prophets who did so, whether the at 278 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:35,320 Speaker 1: least in the cases we're looking at, and whether the 279 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:39,240 Speaker 1: other part is true, whether the fans or the advocates 280 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:43,800 Speaker 1: or the believers in these prophecies said years after an event, 281 00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:47,800 Speaker 1: oh totally, you predicted World War two. It's a lot 282 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:49,439 Speaker 1: of it too, has to do with the language of 283 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,919 Speaker 1: the prophecy, and one of the first ones we're going 284 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:55,880 Speaker 1: to get into, very well known prophet Nostradamus, is were 285 00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:59,160 Speaker 1: almost written like in the form of riddles or kind 286 00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:02,399 Speaker 1: of weird little aphorisms that you know, sort of like 287 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 1: the fortune cookie, you know, can you could apply it 288 00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 1: to something if you choose. If you see an event 289 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 1: and you say, oh, well, you know, here's a thing 290 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:11,920 Speaker 1: it's kind of related. You can make a jump on 291 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 1: a leap and get there if you want to um. 292 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 1: Some of them are weirder than others as well discuss, 293 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:19,200 Speaker 1: but again it's all about the language and prophecy. Prophecies 294 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:21,520 Speaker 1: do tend not to be this thing is going to 295 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:23,439 Speaker 1: happen on this day. It's gonna be just like this. 296 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 1: They're usually much more vague and open ended. So so 297 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:31,359 Speaker 1: I have a I have a a funny well it's not. 298 00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 1: It wasn't funny to me, but it might give everybody 299 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 1: a chuckle. Uh. I have a funny story about muster Damas. 300 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:40,800 Speaker 1: When I was a wee young Tyke one of my 301 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 1: uncles who has always been into fringe kind of theories, 302 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,160 Speaker 1: and he saw he's still a hard person to read. 303 00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:51,399 Speaker 1: He would occasionally just send me books out of the blue. 304 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:53,800 Speaker 1: And one of the books that I received from him 305 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:57,840 Speaker 1: was a book about nostrodomass prophecies for the End of 306 00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:01,800 Speaker 1: the world. And this was probably a book that was 307 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 1: over my head at the time, and it was also 308 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 1: on the cusp of the nine Atlanta Olympics. So I 309 00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 1: read this one quation was and it had this strange 310 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:17,440 Speaker 1: um strange phrasing, but it was something like in nineteen 311 00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 1: hundred and nineties six build your house, sort of rock 312 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:25,000 Speaker 1: and sticks, war and fire will sweep over the land. 313 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 1: And they did like, oh, apostrophe e er, which to 314 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:31,159 Speaker 1: me was super like super legit at the time. And 315 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 1: then I was convinced that the end of the world 316 00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:38,640 Speaker 1: or the end of the city would occur in during 317 00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:44,879 Speaker 1: the nine Olympics. And I was, I'm being dead serious, 318 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:47,400 Speaker 1: you guys. I was terrified to go into the city. 319 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 1: I was certain that this mass market paperback had accurately 320 00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:54,439 Speaker 1: predicted future and a my mom made me go to 321 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:56,680 Speaker 1: one thing, and the rest of the time I stayed home. 322 00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 1: Certain right, yes, exactly. And then the there was a 323 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:07,040 Speaker 1: bombing at the at the Olympics that year, but civilization 324 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 1: soldiered on. But that must have been creepy for you 325 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 1: at the time to see on the news or something 326 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 1: here somebody talking about it. I was convinced that the 327 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:20,919 Speaker 1: ancient wisdom of Nostre Damas had saved my life and 328 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 1: for and that was for a couple of a couple 329 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 1: of years. But then we started to look at the 330 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 1: interpretations and and a lot of people are aware of Nostradamus, 331 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 1: skeptics and believers alike. So let's get into it, you guys, 332 00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:35,520 Speaker 1: who who is this dude? So his full name was 333 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:40,679 Speaker 1: Michelle de nostradama Um and went by the street name. 334 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 1: I suppose you could say Nostrodamus Um. One of my 335 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 1: favorite hip hop names of all times is Flastradamus. Yes, fantastic, 336 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 1: just throwing up there, but um so. According to most sources, 337 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 1: he was born in December of fifteen o three and 338 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:57,359 Speaker 1: died in fifteen sixty six. He made a living as 339 00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 1: like an apothecary sort of, you know, exactly a precurstitch 340 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:07,680 Speaker 1: of pharmacists. But today he's much more well known, regarded 341 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 1: as a soothsayer or a prophet as we're talking about. 342 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:14,639 Speaker 1: In five he published a book called Li Profetise, which 343 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 1: remains relatively popular even to this day and has been 344 00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:20,679 Speaker 1: translated into numerous languages. Um today you can find the 345 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,240 Speaker 1: full copyright free PDF of this in the public domain. 346 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 1: You can get an archive dot org courtesy of the 347 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 1: Library of Congress. Though it should be noted uh and 348 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,360 Speaker 1: This was something I was going to bring up. We're 349 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:35,920 Speaker 1: talking about how these things are interpreted. They're also translated literally, 350 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 1: quite literally, because the original version was written in French. 351 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:43,159 Speaker 1: The prophetis and the one that you can find that 352 00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 1: we mentioned that PDF is completely in French, and you 353 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:49,640 Speaker 1: can just imagine the little nuances they get lost as 354 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 1: it gets changed over to English or to Spanish or 355 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:54,479 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, in the Romance languages. It might 356 00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:57,240 Speaker 1: be even more similar. But then imagine if it's translated 357 00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:00,680 Speaker 1: let's say, I don't know, to man drain or something 358 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:03,600 Speaker 1: like that, and people are using these prophecies as and 359 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 1: trying to translate them. Oh man, and have you been 360 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 1: out of the college game for a minute. It I'd 361 00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:12,320 Speaker 1: only recently occurred to me again how important translators are 362 00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:15,159 Speaker 1: for you know, works of philosophy, and how you become 363 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:18,520 Speaker 1: like the pre eminent voice, you know, in terms of 364 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: translating in particular, you know, writer, and because you are 365 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:26,439 Speaker 1: literally creating the interpretation of this work that is going 366 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 1: to be consumed and taught and you know, passed around, 367 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:33,200 Speaker 1: and a lot of times that we're interpretation definitely applies, 368 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:35,480 Speaker 1: I mean, it has to, and it goes it goes back. 369 00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 1: That's so interesting because it goes back to what we're 370 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:43,119 Speaker 1: talking about with oracles, right, Uh, the the priests, to 371 00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:50,440 Speaker 1: the sibyl and in the interpreter, the intermediate medium. Uh so, uh, 372 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,159 Speaker 1: this is this is great that we're getting to this 373 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 1: part because it's not just modern French. It's French from 374 00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:01,480 Speaker 1: the fifteen hundreds, sort of like like Middle English or something. 375 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:05,359 Speaker 1: It's difficult to it's it would be very very difficult, 376 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 1: although I do love. One thing I love about spoken 377 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 1: French at least is that everything rhymes. Do you guys 378 00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:12,440 Speaker 1: ever think about how easy it must be to wrap 379 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:17,359 Speaker 1: in French? Well? Really interesting? Yeah, you're right, I didn't 380 00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 1: think about that. But it flows very nice. It flows, 381 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 1: it flows, it does end. So no. Stredamis's predictions are written, 382 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,800 Speaker 1: as we said, in this French, and they're grouped in 383 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:30,639 Speaker 1: a peculiar way. They are grouped in four line stands 384 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 1: as quatrains that observe or maybe worn about vague events 385 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:41,679 Speaker 1: or very symbolistic. Uh. The stands as themselves are grouped 386 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:45,639 Speaker 1: into units of a hundred called centuries. And as we said, 387 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:49,800 Speaker 1: it's all about the interpretations. So let's talk about some 388 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:55,119 Speaker 1: of the specific prophecies that no stredamis made. Should we 389 00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:57,960 Speaker 1: go ahead and jump right in to the old September 390 00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 1: eleven one attacks Why not? Man, I'm not an eight 391 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,120 Speaker 1: and a half the yards kind of guy. Okay, that's 392 00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 1: where we're going. Uh, let's let's get into the English 393 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 1: translation that old Matt Frederick. Here o l apostrophe Matt 394 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:19,679 Speaker 1: Frederick or however you want to translate Frederick. All right, 395 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 1: here we go. Volcanic fire from the center of the 396 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 1: earth will cause trembling around the new city. Two great 397 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 1: rocks will make war for a long time. Then Arufsa 398 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:38,240 Speaker 1: will redden a new river. Yeah. Ruf's side note is 399 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:41,640 Speaker 1: a nymph who turned into a fountain in her story. 400 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:46,159 Speaker 1: Uh so that's one translation, But I don't know if 401 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 1: this is the same one. I found another version. Apparently 402 00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:51,879 Speaker 1: there were quite a few folks talked around about not eleven. 403 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,439 Speaker 1: This one has some similar ideas, but it's in the 404 00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:57,399 Speaker 1: city of God. There will be a great thunder, two 405 00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:01,760 Speaker 1: brothers torn apart by chaos. While the fortress endures, the 406 00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:05,359 Speaker 1: great leader will succumb. The third big war will begin 407 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 1: when the big city is burning. That is an interesting one. Actually, 408 00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:13,879 Speaker 1: because I've seen the imagery in their matches up really 409 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:17,119 Speaker 1: well with what we saw on the news and what 410 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:20,120 Speaker 1: kind of happened. What's what I'm saying, it's the fortune 411 00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 1: cooking men town. You know, you can fit it in, 412 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:23,919 Speaker 1: you can totally box it in if you think, wow, 413 00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:26,760 Speaker 1: those are some big burly images that he's talking about, 414 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 1: and like you can connect them with, you know, to 415 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:32,160 Speaker 1: the Twins, the two buildings, the Fortress of the Pentagon, 416 00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:36,040 Speaker 1: which still stands. Also, the qualification of posting something on 417 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:39,640 Speaker 1: the Internet is entirely the ability to have an Internet connection, 418 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:42,199 Speaker 1: of course. And I remember this one. This was this 419 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:44,520 Speaker 1: was right when everything went down and everyone was talking 420 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:46,919 Speaker 1: about the Nostrongs connection. This one was totally doctored and 421 00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:48,800 Speaker 1: it is made up, but you may remember this. It 422 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 1: was two steel birds will fall from the sky on 423 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:55,679 Speaker 1: the metropolis. The sky will burn at forty five degrees latitude. 424 00:25:56,000 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 1: Fire approaches the Great New City. Immediately, a huge scattered 425 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:03,359 Speaker 1: flame leaps up. Within months, rivers will flow with blood. 426 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:06,320 Speaker 1: The undead will roam the earth for a little time. 427 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:10,199 Speaker 1: Totally fabricated. Someone just took the flavor of Nostre Damas 428 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:12,119 Speaker 1: and added maybe a couple of lines from one of 429 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 1: the quatrains and dumped this out and it was making 430 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,919 Speaker 1: the round. I remember seeing the two steel birds and 431 00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:19,879 Speaker 1: they didn't have steel See. I think I think the 432 00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: steel Birds line is actually taken from another profit that 433 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:26,119 Speaker 1: we're going to speak about a little later. This is 434 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 1: definitely attributed to Nostradamas at the time, it's completely bunk. 435 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:33,520 Speaker 1: And that's yeah, that's another thing Nostredamus also, all right, 436 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:36,879 Speaker 1: so we know that there are some bunk translations. We 437 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 1: know that there are people who said, yeah, why don't 438 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:42,160 Speaker 1: I just stick a line about New York in here? 439 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 1: And so what they end on that thinks, and that's 440 00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:47,879 Speaker 1: why we have Nostredamus. This guy writing in uh the 441 00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 1: fifteen hundreds, allegedly according to the Internet, saying stuff like 442 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:59,000 Speaker 1: New York the eleventh day of the ninth month. And 443 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 1: again the way any of these were laid out. Okay, 444 00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna play I'm gonna play Devil's advocate here for 445 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:08,560 Speaker 1: a moment on the side of someone who perhaps can 446 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 1: see beyond the veil, for a moment in a fleeting 447 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 1: glance of something. Imagine that you have no context for 448 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 1: what New York City looks like or for what a 449 00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:20,440 Speaker 1: city or a building or anything that you're looking at. 450 00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 1: It looks like like, imagine you're getting a glimpse of 451 00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:28,159 Speaker 1: a futuristic city hundreds of years from now, and you 452 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:29,879 Speaker 1: have no idea what anything is. You don't know what 453 00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:34,160 Speaker 1: the names are, but you see two things that looks 454 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:37,120 Speaker 1: similar to a plane for sure attacking something. I mean, 455 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:42,440 Speaker 1: it's it's interesting to me imagining how I would write 456 00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 1: down on a piece of paper or what I was 457 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:48,120 Speaker 1: seeing if I could somehow see that and and potentially 458 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,879 Speaker 1: a very cool literary device. I can't pick pick it 459 00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:53,159 Speaker 1: out right now, but I feel like I've seen that 460 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 1: before in a movie or in like a novel, whether 461 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,399 Speaker 1: someone has had a prophecy and they describe it in 462 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:02,399 Speaker 1: these kind of like, uh, very rudimentary terms, something that 463 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:05,920 Speaker 1: will happen in the future, which like the Great Turtle 464 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:08,119 Speaker 1: will rise from the sea, and you know things like 465 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 1: that where it's like maybe it's like a warship or something. 466 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:12,880 Speaker 1: You know, it's like cargo cults then that we've talked 467 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:17,639 Speaker 1: about before. Yeah, cargo cults. People will call, uh, what 468 00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:22,440 Speaker 1: is It's a term that might be somewhat defraugatory. Cult 469 00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:25,560 Speaker 1: can be h for people who are living in isolated 470 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:29,919 Speaker 1: areas in the Pacific Ocean, isolated islands, and they would 471 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 1: see cargo dropped and see airplanes for the first time, 472 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:39,040 Speaker 1: and service members of various wars. There is there was 473 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:43,959 Speaker 1: within your lifetimes, listener, there there was a active cargo 474 00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:47,400 Speaker 1: cult that worshiped Prince Philip uh and they would build 475 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:53,520 Speaker 1: towers or radio towers and an attempt to summon these 476 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:56,240 Speaker 1: things from the sky. Again, well he is kind of dreamy, 477 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 1: is he. Yeah, but just idea that there's no there's 478 00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:04,440 Speaker 1: not a lot of context for for that group of 479 00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:07,440 Speaker 1: people who have seen something that's beyond their understanding that 480 00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:09,760 Speaker 1: has done something good for them. I thought it's a 481 00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 1: great Yeah. I think that's a great argument. I'm glad 482 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:13,880 Speaker 1: you make it because we've heard arguments about that in 483 00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 1: biblical text, right. I can't remember if it's I think 484 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 1: it's Old Testament. Yeah, it's gotta be Old Testament where 485 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:26,320 Speaker 1: Ezekiel has a vision of what he said learning chariot 486 00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 1: or wheels within wheels, and that description is clearly someone 487 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:36,920 Speaker 1: trying to be very specific about some but bizarre spectacle 488 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:40,600 Speaker 1: but not maybe not quite knowing what it is, which 489 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:43,680 Speaker 1: has led you know, ancient alien people to say that 490 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 1: it's some sort of visitation extraterrestrial. But that's a story 491 00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 1: for a different day. It is, it is, it is, 492 00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: But I just have thrown vi Mona's that's one of 493 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 1: the coolest things. The the idea of the flying ships 494 00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:59,040 Speaker 1: for an ancient Indian texts, ancient nuclear war hunt. The 495 00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 1: Nazis believed in it. It's also interesting to the way 496 00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:04,080 Speaker 1: you can sort of divide profits up into the into 497 00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 1: two camps. I mean, you have these religious leader profits 498 00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:10,440 Speaker 1: that are communicating with said deities that are in charge 499 00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:12,920 Speaker 1: of whatever faith they represent, and then you have these 500 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 1: nostre damas soothsayer type profits that are more about looking 501 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:18,360 Speaker 1: at the big picture. They're not necessarily saying they've got 502 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 1: a message from God. They're just saying they can see, 503 00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:23,800 Speaker 1: you know, beyond and seeing the future. And they're both 504 00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:26,160 Speaker 1: kind of you know, considered profits, but they have sort 505 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 1: of have their own little game going on right well. 506 00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:31,920 Speaker 1: And yeah, and in nostri nostradamis as time, it was 507 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:38,160 Speaker 1: apostasy or denial of religion. Technically it's like this huge crime. 508 00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:41,360 Speaker 1: So it you know, it's it's strange when you think 509 00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:44,880 Speaker 1: about that too, because most of the profits we see 510 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:48,080 Speaker 1: have or people who believe their profits have some sort 511 00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 1: of spiritual nature. And sometimes it's I'll say it, sometimes 512 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 1: they believe they have discovered it independently. But that's the 513 00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 1: nicest way to say it. There's another one, since we 514 00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:03,280 Speaker 1: started at nine eleven. Well, yeah, and and since you 515 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:09,440 Speaker 1: said the Nazis did believe perhaps in the ancient nuclear war? Yes, uh, 516 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:15,080 Speaker 1: did Nostradamus predict the rise of Hitler and the beginning 517 00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 1: of World War two in the place very near, not 518 00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 1: far from Venus, the two greatest ones of Asia and 519 00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 1: of Africa from the Rhine and Histor they will be 520 00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:30,080 Speaker 1: said to have come cries tears at Malta and the 521 00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 1: Ligurian side Histor. Huh, that sounds pretty close. Yeah, but 522 00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't think that's what there or 523 00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:41,239 Speaker 1: perhaps Okay, I just have to say it's a it's 524 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:43,320 Speaker 1: a river, right. Histor is a river, The Rhine is 525 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:46,760 Speaker 1: a river. They are in Germany, or at least on 526 00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:48,880 Speaker 1: the western side of Germany. The Rhyan is there. And 527 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 1: then the history, I don't know exactly where. It's the 528 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:55,000 Speaker 1: Latin name for like the lower stretch of the Danube. Okay, okay, 529 00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:59,320 Speaker 1: so yeah, so that that sounds We're here's just the show, everybody. 530 00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 1: How for these translations can be We've got the original Freendshire, 531 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 1: which I'm not going to butcher, but then someone else 532 00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:09,520 Speaker 1: translates it. To remember what um, what we just heard 533 00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:13,360 Speaker 1: from Noel earlier? Someone else says, beast wild with hunger 534 00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 1: shall cross the rivers. Most of the fighting shall be 535 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:19,120 Speaker 1: close by the history. It shall result in the great 536 00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 1: One being dragged in an iron cage while the Germans 537 00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 1: shall be watching over the infant rhyme what vastly? Yeah? Yeah, 538 00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 1: and so what part of that is fabricated? Right? Uh? 539 00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 1: So again, you can read various interpretations of this, especially 540 00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:41,640 Speaker 1: with no stradomics in mind, because there's so many, so 541 00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 1: many translations that are people actually trying to transliterate. I mean, 542 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 1: the original is so innocuous. It's just it's like in 543 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:55,200 Speaker 1: a place not far from Venus, like like, how much 544 00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:56,920 Speaker 1: more vague can you be? And then it it gets 545 00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:59,880 Speaker 1: more specific and they will be said to have come 546 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 1: cries tears at Malta and the Ligurian side. It's just 547 00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 1: so open ended, you know that you can just shoehorn, 548 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:08,480 Speaker 1: whatever idea you want into that if you choose now, 549 00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:10,360 Speaker 1: is that what you think is happening. I think it's 550 00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 1: what's happening with this other translation that you're talking about. 551 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:15,680 Speaker 1: And I think, like you say, it's it's if you 552 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:18,840 Speaker 1: get excited about the idea that maybe this guy really 553 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 1: did have something, your brain starts to make all these 554 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,400 Speaker 1: leaps and fill in the gaps, and you know, kind 555 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:26,720 Speaker 1: of like, what is it confirmation bias? Kind of? Yeah, 556 00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 1: this this makes me think about so many other things. 557 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:36,960 Speaker 1: We've looked at the psychotronics studies in the USSRUH in 558 00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:40,480 Speaker 1: the aftermath of World War Two, the various m k 559 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:44,400 Speaker 1: ultra type experiments people have tried to conduct with or um. 560 00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:47,920 Speaker 1: Was it stargate with Ingo Swan where people were trying 561 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:52,440 Speaker 1: to access what they were certain was an extra sensory ability. 562 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:56,360 Speaker 1: I'm not here to say that that stuff conclusively doesn't exist, 563 00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:00,280 Speaker 1: though it is true that governments have spent a lot 564 00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:04,440 Speaker 1: of money on things that ultimately didn't pan out. Well, yeah, 565 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:06,840 Speaker 1: and that's why we had to do right, we talked 566 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:09,640 Speaker 1: about this, but with the reason why the United States 567 00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:15,120 Speaker 1: government had to do research into this, Uh, this this 568 00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:18,520 Speaker 1: subject is because it was being done by the other side. 569 00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:22,040 Speaker 1: And if the other side somehow unlocked psychic powers or 570 00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:26,640 Speaker 1: these you know, ways to see through buildings and perhaps 571 00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:29,000 Speaker 1: even move through them, and we didn't have it. Oh 572 00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:31,200 Speaker 1: we're in trouble if they've got X men and we don't. 573 00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:34,640 Speaker 1: But yeah, but okay, I while I get that, it's 574 00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:37,879 Speaker 1: also somewhat disingenuous. And I know this is a bit 575 00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:41,920 Speaker 1: of a different topic. It's disingenuous, uh, at least on 576 00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:45,920 Speaker 1: the part of some members of the military bureaucracy, because 577 00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:51,640 Speaker 1: clearly it's war is good for the winner's economy, right, 578 00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:55,759 Speaker 1: so it's also a way to rationalize more spending. We'll 579 00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:58,799 Speaker 1: watch out this thing. I mean, remember, we live in 580 00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 1: a country where mere decades ago someone said, what if 581 00:35:03,040 --> 00:35:08,040 Speaker 1: we could make a bomb, it would just turn people gay? Yeah, 582 00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:11,279 Speaker 1: what if? Why don't we just try that and let's 583 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:13,440 Speaker 1: spend a couple Let's spend a couple of mill on it, 584 00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:16,799 Speaker 1: and just see if that's a real thing. All right, 585 00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:21,960 Speaker 1: So we should mention though. One common misinterpretation about Nostradamis 586 00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:25,120 Speaker 1: is that he created all of his work independently. That 587 00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:29,960 Speaker 1: is not true. He pulled there's pretty convincing evidence that 588 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:34,000 Speaker 1: he pulled from existing literature of his time, histories, things 589 00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:37,279 Speaker 1: like that. So a lot of his work is referential, 590 00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:43,120 Speaker 1: but not necessarily referring to future events. It's referring to 591 00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:48,000 Speaker 1: or alluding to existing works in his time in the 592 00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:52,280 Speaker 1: fifteen hundreds, similar to the way that T. S. Eliot's 593 00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:56,520 Speaker 1: The Waste Land refers so heavily and is so elusive 594 00:35:57,160 --> 00:36:00,560 Speaker 1: in terms of it how it leans on other exists works. 595 00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:07,120 Speaker 1: So some of these prophecies are these translations are more 596 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:11,960 Speaker 1: amalgamations of other things. He didn't write this all independently, 597 00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:14,719 Speaker 1: and he didn't predict the end of the world the 598 00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:18,120 Speaker 1: Mayan cycle, which itself is kind of based on a 599 00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:23,080 Speaker 1: mistranslation in twelve. Instead, he said his prophecies extend from 600 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:26,320 Speaker 1: now to the year thirties, seven, nineties seven or something 601 00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:29,560 Speaker 1: like that. That is a long time for now, that's 602 00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:32,480 Speaker 1: a while, a really long time from fifteen five. But 603 00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:36,520 Speaker 1: his major astrological source at the time, Richard Rousseau, said 604 00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:40,279 Speaker 1: that forty two might be a date for the end 605 00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:43,840 Speaker 1: of the world. Uh, I don't remember the arcane logic 606 00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:47,240 Speaker 1: they used, and three seven nine seven minus fifteen fifty 607 00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:52,239 Speaker 1: five when he published the book is twenty two two. 608 00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:55,480 Speaker 1: I don't know, man, I was gonna say one, that's 609 00:36:55,560 --> 00:37:00,239 Speaker 1: probably a better, better year. It's just so funny because 610 00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:03,200 Speaker 1: when you it doesn't matter who you are. I don't 611 00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:06,000 Speaker 1: care how popular you are among any circles. If you 612 00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:09,440 Speaker 1: just throw out a number like that, I don't know, 613 00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:12,359 Speaker 1: well I'll throw I'll throw out a number for you. 614 00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:16,600 Speaker 1: Um well, I can't. I know this is weird because 615 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:20,080 Speaker 1: I can't tell you much about the person who told 616 00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:24,080 Speaker 1: me this, but I am convinced by this source the 617 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:27,040 Speaker 1: world is ending for someone or some group of people. 618 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:31,920 Speaker 1: Like every every day and every year, there are between 619 00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:36,799 Speaker 1: fifty and two hundred apocalyptic groups who believe that this 620 00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:44,879 Speaker 1: is it is a big finish. And without without being 621 00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:48,759 Speaker 1: disrespectful or dismissing these people's beliefs, I will say that 622 00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:53,840 Speaker 1: there's something inherently narcissistic and self center to assume that 623 00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:57,719 Speaker 1: a thing that existed for thousands of years is going 624 00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:00,880 Speaker 1: to stop that and you show up just in time, 625 00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:07,800 Speaker 1: like civilization itself for right job. I mean, it's there's 626 00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:14,520 Speaker 1: something inherently not selfish but self important about that, and 627 00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:19,400 Speaker 1: so far, the one thing that all apocalyptic groups have 628 00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:24,680 Speaker 1: in common is that they have not accurately predicted the 629 00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:26,560 Speaker 1: end of the world. You know, my favorite end of 630 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:29,920 Speaker 1: the world um prophecy is what's that? Are you guys 631 00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:33,799 Speaker 1: familiar with the Church of the SubGenius. Yeah, So they 632 00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:36,640 Speaker 1: celebrate this holiday every year in July that called X 633 00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:40,480 Speaker 1: Day and UM. Initially X Day was supposed to be 634 00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:42,160 Speaker 1: the end of the world and was supposed to be 635 00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:47,120 Speaker 1: on July, at which point UM an alien race known 636 00:38:47,160 --> 00:38:49,560 Speaker 1: as the exists or men from Planet X would come 637 00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:52,120 Speaker 1: to Earth and destroy the world and rid the world 638 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:55,400 Speaker 1: of the quote normals or pinks or Glorps, which are 639 00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:59,040 Speaker 1: the non sub genii that inhabit the planet. But you know, 640 00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:01,640 Speaker 1: as as you know, time time happens, everyone makes mistakes. 641 00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:06,000 Speaker 1: The creators of the Trick of the SubGenius got the 642 00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:09,560 Speaker 1: calendar date wrong and apparently looked at it upside down, 643 00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:11,879 Speaker 1: So it's actually going to take place in the year 644 00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:15,400 Speaker 1: eight six sixty one. Who So that gives them plenty 645 00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:20,759 Speaker 1: of padding, you know, their parties up until the new 646 00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:23,480 Speaker 1: end of the world come. I love I love SubGenius 647 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:26,879 Speaker 1: because it takes all the wind out of these kind 648 00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:29,560 Speaker 1: of into the world death conspiracies you know, and just 649 00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:32,040 Speaker 1: sort of like it's a very tongue in cheek and 650 00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:36,160 Speaker 1: I'm a big fan. Well yeah, I again, you guys 651 00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:41,760 Speaker 1: know that I have a fascination with alternative religious beliefs. 652 00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:43,879 Speaker 1: I guess is the most fair way to dance around 653 00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:49,359 Speaker 1: the word cults. But the thing that fascinates me is 654 00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:52,879 Speaker 1: that there are so many instances where someone predicts the 655 00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:56,080 Speaker 1: end of the world. And you know, apocalypse or an 656 00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:59,080 Speaker 1: apocalyptic event does not necessarily mean the end of the world. 657 00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:01,200 Speaker 1: We use it that in English today, but what it 658 00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:06,520 Speaker 1: means at heart is the revealing of hidden things. So 659 00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:11,360 Speaker 1: that revelation right the end of the world. It's become 660 00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:15,080 Speaker 1: conflated or synonymous in modern speech, but a lot of 661 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:18,640 Speaker 1: these groups will talk more in terms of a great 662 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:21,959 Speaker 1: spiritual revelation and when they are wrong, if the date 663 00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:28,040 Speaker 1: comes and it passes, then there's a wealth of a plethora, 664 00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:31,919 Speaker 1: and I am using that word correctly of reasons that 665 00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:34,520 Speaker 1: the thing will have to be adjusted. So kudos to 666 00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:38,000 Speaker 1: the SubGenius Church for moving and giving themselves a little 667 00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:39,640 Speaker 1: bit of a buffer. I hope they make it to 668 00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:44,920 Speaker 1: the eight hundreds eight thousands. Okay, So next is someone 669 00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:48,799 Speaker 1: who might be a deep cut for some listeners. This 670 00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:51,759 Speaker 1: actually might be new to some of you out there, 671 00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:55,919 Speaker 1: and we hope you enjoy it. Let's talk about the 672 00:40:56,040 --> 00:41:00,239 Speaker 1: Nostradamis of the Balkans, as she is sometimes called. Gonna 673 00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:04,680 Speaker 1: have to see her name. Baba Vana, like Baba Yaga, 674 00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:11,080 Speaker 1: the Russian witch of folklore, but Baba Vanga. Born Vangelia 675 00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:16,960 Speaker 1: Pandeva Dimitrova in January nineteen eleven. She was in She 676 00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:20,360 Speaker 1: was born in what was then known as the Ottoman Empire, 677 00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:22,760 Speaker 1: and when she was born she was completely normal until 678 00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:26,640 Speaker 1: the age of twelve. Yeah, and allegedly, or at least 679 00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:30,640 Speaker 1: according to stories, she was blinded during a storm that 680 00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:34,080 Speaker 1: occurred when she was only twelve years old. I almost 681 00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:38,839 Speaker 1: wanted to seem blinded by the light. No, that's messed up, ben, 682 00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:42,440 Speaker 1: and don't do that well. Um, but yeah, So she 683 00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:44,920 Speaker 1: was missing for a number of days. At some point 684 00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:48,360 Speaker 1: she had that kind of mystical thing where she's disappeared, 685 00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:52,760 Speaker 1: but now she's returned. Her eyes were when she returned 686 00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:56,800 Speaker 1: sealed shut, and her family couldn't afford to get them fixed, 687 00:41:56,800 --> 00:42:00,439 Speaker 1: couldn't take her to the doctor or the Yeah, let's 688 00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:03,080 Speaker 1: say the doctor. So she was going to be blind 689 00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:07,480 Speaker 1: for the rest of her life, but yeah, she was 690 00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:10,120 Speaker 1: going to have that sense replaced, at least according to 691 00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:13,040 Speaker 1: her and her supporters. She claimed she began having visions 692 00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:15,279 Speaker 1: during the first few days of her disappearance, and that's 693 00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:19,000 Speaker 1: a super common trope in you know, historical accounts of 694 00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:22,799 Speaker 1: um prophets or sibyls, right, Like, that's a thing, I mean, 695 00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:27,480 Speaker 1: the blind prophet, you know, yes, and mythology and literature 696 00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:32,080 Speaker 1: and also yeah, in history and leaving and not being 697 00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:34,839 Speaker 1: seen for a period of time then returning and then 698 00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:38,200 Speaker 1: this completely changed the new thing. And that goes back 699 00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:41,080 Speaker 1: to Joseph Campbell, right, I was saying when that that 700 00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:44,600 Speaker 1: that period of disappearances when you know, some significant event 701 00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:48,560 Speaker 1: took place and changed the person's perspective wherever. Yeah, I 702 00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:51,600 Speaker 1: would recommend Hero with a Thousand Faces or Heroes Journey 703 00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:54,120 Speaker 1: by Joseph Campbell to learn some more of that. This 704 00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:57,399 Speaker 1: happened in real life. She believed that because of her 705 00:42:57,520 --> 00:43:00,239 Speaker 1: visions in her quest, she could predict the future and 706 00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:05,920 Speaker 1: heal people using otherworldly powers, and scientists and government officials, 707 00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:08,040 Speaker 1: not to mention the wealthy, came to visit her for 708 00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:11,520 Speaker 1: advice According to the story, she served as an advisor 709 00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:15,080 Speaker 1: to the Bulgarian Communist Party leaders, who would ask her 710 00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:20,440 Speaker 1: questions to advance their cause. Right in the Great in 711 00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:25,160 Speaker 1: the Great Game of geopolitical intrigue, she was kept under 712 00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:30,759 Speaker 1: surveillance by the secret police, and politicians and businessmen would 713 00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:34,319 Speaker 1: come meet with her. And that I can believe, because 714 00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:37,719 Speaker 1: if your secret police, you want to bug those conversations. Yeah, 715 00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:41,360 Speaker 1: even if, even if what she's telling them is completely untrue, 716 00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:46,640 Speaker 1: just having those individuals in a room speaking, Yeah, we're 717 00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:49,200 Speaker 1: gonna bug that if we're in charge. So let's talk 718 00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:53,920 Speaker 1: about her specific prophecies, right. According to The Independent, she 719 00:43:54,719 --> 00:43:58,399 Speaker 1: allegedly predicted the forty four US president would be black. 720 00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:02,279 Speaker 1: Also the last president, which is predictions of who will 721 00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:06,080 Speaker 1: be the last president are distressingly common. Uh And I 722 00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:07,799 Speaker 1: think a lot of them are made up by people 723 00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:10,880 Speaker 1: on the internet. But as well, she is thought to 724 00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:14,680 Speaker 1: have predicted uh nine eleven. And we we have the 725 00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:17,759 Speaker 1: quote from the Guardian here and here's that image that 726 00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:20,359 Speaker 1: seemed to crop up and that was attributed to Notre 727 00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:24,319 Speaker 1: damis horror, horror. The American Brethren will fall after being 728 00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:27,960 Speaker 1: attacked by the steel birds, the wolves will be howling 729 00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:31,240 Speaker 1: in a bush and innocent blood will gush. So clearly 730 00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:34,439 Speaker 1: that steel Birds imagery was pilfered from this and kind 731 00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:37,320 Speaker 1: of connected with some nostradamous lines and then you know, 732 00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:41,680 Speaker 1: thrown out there on the internet. Now, one study, uh, 733 00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:47,239 Speaker 1: one one study says that she was accurate. I have 734 00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:50,719 Speaker 1: a hard time believing this. This game from Dr Georgie Lozonov, 735 00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:53,719 Speaker 1: who is director of the Institute of I'm not making 736 00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:59,239 Speaker 1: this up. Suggest ology and parapsychology and Sophia Bulgaria and uh. 737 00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:04,320 Speaker 1: He said that I like that word suggest ology, suggests ologies. 738 00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:10,400 Speaker 1: Sounds very subgenious, doesn't it. So there's also here's the thing. 739 00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:13,200 Speaker 1: Though this was a legit place at thirty staff members. 740 00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:16,719 Speaker 1: The Bulgarian government was paying for it. They thought that 741 00:45:17,280 --> 00:45:22,000 Speaker 1: a lot of baba Anga's predictive abilities, especially the stuff 742 00:45:22,040 --> 00:45:25,319 Speaker 1: where she was looking for lost relatives and friends, were 743 00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:30,560 Speaker 1: pretty accurate. However, the issue with this is you can 744 00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:32,960 Speaker 1: find it in the methodology. You know. I'll post this 745 00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:36,200 Speaker 1: online if anybody wants to check it out. But we've 746 00:45:36,280 --> 00:45:41,560 Speaker 1: talked before about parapsychology experiments and how easy it is 747 00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:45,000 Speaker 1: to how easy it is to do something that renders 748 00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:50,080 Speaker 1: the experiment unsound. Um Anyhow, there's also the additional side 749 00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:52,080 Speaker 1: note that many of the people who are close to 750 00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:55,839 Speaker 1: bob Avanga during her life claims she never made prophecies 751 00:45:55,880 --> 00:46:00,200 Speaker 1: attributed to her on the Internet. She died in nine teen, 752 00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:06,080 Speaker 1: and she left behind several other alleged predictions for the future. 753 00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:09,040 Speaker 1: Vice has a good Vice has a good article on it, 754 00:46:09,160 --> 00:46:11,880 Speaker 1: and we can check in with that maybe towards the 755 00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:14,759 Speaker 1: close of the show. Well, let's move on, because I 756 00:46:15,280 --> 00:46:17,239 Speaker 1: can't wait to see what other people say about Bob 757 00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:19,839 Speaker 1: a Vanka. But we would be remiss if we did 758 00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:25,160 Speaker 1: not talk about another um, another profit or seer that 759 00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:28,600 Speaker 1: you ladies and gentlemen have asked us to check out 760 00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:31,080 Speaker 1: for a while now. Yeah, and it's also getting a 761 00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:33,759 Speaker 1: little bit closer to the present day, which is kind 762 00:46:33,800 --> 00:46:36,800 Speaker 1: of cool. So it's somebody that actually has stuff written 763 00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:40,440 Speaker 1: down about them, perhaps even books that are published with 764 00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:44,640 Speaker 1: English that we will be able to understand readily. Right. Oh, Also, 765 00:46:44,840 --> 00:46:48,399 Speaker 1: our first English speaker that's correct of this of this run, 766 00:46:49,080 --> 00:46:52,960 Speaker 1: and that goes to Mr Edgar Casey. Casey was born 767 00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:56,000 Speaker 1: in March of eighteen seventy seven and passed away in January. 768 00:46:57,760 --> 00:47:00,640 Speaker 1: He had a pretty interesting alien I guess you could 769 00:47:00,640 --> 00:47:04,040 Speaker 1: say which was the sleeping prophet, because he would go 770 00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:07,719 Speaker 1: into these trances, these kind of like fugue states reveries 771 00:47:08,080 --> 00:47:11,759 Speaker 1: when he was diagnosing illnesses or recounting ancient wisdom. We're 772 00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:15,360 Speaker 1: just making these different predictions that that is fascinating to me, 773 00:47:15,600 --> 00:47:19,000 Speaker 1: and a lot of the I would say pop culture 774 00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:21,960 Speaker 1: references to a lot of things where someone will go 775 00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:24,520 Speaker 1: into a trance and then make a prediction like this. 776 00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:28,200 Speaker 1: I feel like it's especially in film, goes back to 777 00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:31,040 Speaker 1: maybe being influenced by this guy. Also some of the 778 00:47:31,040 --> 00:47:35,160 Speaker 1: theatrics of uh, you know, communicating with spirits and the 779 00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:37,920 Speaker 1: seance or something where you know, the medium would sort 780 00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:40,319 Speaker 1: of rock back and forth and enter into this, uh, 781 00:47:40,520 --> 00:47:43,960 Speaker 1: this trance like state and then be inhabited by the 782 00:47:44,360 --> 00:47:47,360 Speaker 1: spirit of a past loved one, you know. As we know, 783 00:47:47,480 --> 00:47:50,080 Speaker 1: a lot of that was you know, largely theater, but 784 00:47:50,880 --> 00:47:55,360 Speaker 1: definitely was a very impactful presentation for folks of the 785 00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:59,640 Speaker 1: time for sure. And as we said before, this guy 786 00:47:59,840 --> 00:48:03,360 Speaker 1: is very well documented, perhaps the most well documented profit 787 00:48:03,520 --> 00:48:06,399 Speaker 1: that we know of, and we even know a lot 788 00:48:06,440 --> 00:48:09,799 Speaker 1: about his history growing up in early life, right, Yeah, 789 00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:12,479 Speaker 1: you can. You can find various different accounts. We'll read 790 00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:17,000 Speaker 1: one from someone who well, we'll read one from Edgar 791 00:48:17,160 --> 00:48:22,400 Speaker 1: Casey on Atlantis, which was which contains several statements about 792 00:48:23,040 --> 00:48:27,359 Speaker 1: his beliefs regarding Atlantis, delivered under his trance, edited by 793 00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:31,799 Speaker 1: the director of the Association for Research and Enlightenment, Hugh 794 00:48:32,160 --> 00:48:35,680 Speaker 1: Lynn Casey, a descendant. And we'll also talk about the 795 00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:39,719 Speaker 1: A R E a little bit too. So the thing 796 00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:42,640 Speaker 1: is that, um, he was supposed to be in his 797 00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:48,520 Speaker 1: waking life, pretty good husband's olive father, uh taught Sunday school, 798 00:48:48,719 --> 00:48:52,960 Speaker 1: pretty nice guy, gifted protect professional photographer, but when he 799 00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:58,040 Speaker 1: was in a trance he became a medical diagnostician, a prophet, 800 00:48:58,400 --> 00:49:02,400 Speaker 1: a proponent of biblical lore. So, even as a child 801 00:49:02,600 --> 00:49:07,320 Speaker 1: in Kentucky, his parents said that he displayed powers of 802 00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:11,000 Speaker 1: perception that seemed to go beyond the five senses. At 803 00:49:11,040 --> 00:49:13,080 Speaker 1: the age six or seven, he told his parents he 804 00:49:13,200 --> 00:49:16,560 Speaker 1: was able to see and talk to visions, sometimes of 805 00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:21,000 Speaker 1: dead relatives. One of my favorite stories about him. His 806 00:49:21,120 --> 00:49:24,560 Speaker 1: parents said that he probably had no overactive imagination, But 807 00:49:24,800 --> 00:49:27,400 Speaker 1: one of my favorite stories is that apparently he was 808 00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:30,680 Speaker 1: able to learn by some sort of strange osmosis Uh. 809 00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:33,600 Speaker 1: Sleeping with his head on school books, he got a 810 00:49:33,719 --> 00:49:37,279 Speaker 1: photographic memory, which helped him advance rapidly in school. This 811 00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:41,200 Speaker 1: faded uh as he grew older, and he was only 812 00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:46,839 Speaker 1: able to complete complete the seventh grade of formal education. Uh. 813 00:49:46,960 --> 00:49:51,160 Speaker 1: So he started to develop a paralysis of the throat 814 00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:56,000 Speaker 1: muscles in and was in his early twenties. Doctors weren't 815 00:49:56,000 --> 00:49:59,480 Speaker 1: able to find a cause for this condition, so they 816 00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:05,600 Speaker 1: try everything. They tried hypnosis too, and then, in desperation, 817 00:50:06,120 --> 00:50:09,600 Speaker 1: Casey apparently asked one of his friends to help him 818 00:50:09,840 --> 00:50:11,879 Speaker 1: achieve the same kind of trance he had used when 819 00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:15,719 Speaker 1: he was sleeping on school books as a kid. And 820 00:50:15,800 --> 00:50:19,439 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, he uh did the old 821 00:50:19,719 --> 00:50:24,440 Speaker 1: diagnose thyself physician kind of thing, and he got medicine 822 00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:28,800 Speaker 1: and recommended a therapy that restored his voice shored his throat. 823 00:50:29,080 --> 00:50:31,960 Speaker 1: A group of doctors came by and started asking him 824 00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:35,400 Speaker 1: to diagnose their own patients. One thing leads to another, 825 00:50:36,320 --> 00:50:40,600 Speaker 1: really and uh yeah, and he becomes the sleeping profits. 826 00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:44,960 Speaker 1: So when he dies in forty five in Virginia, he 827 00:50:45,120 --> 00:50:49,560 Speaker 1: left well over fourteen thousand documented stenographic records of the 828 00:50:49,680 --> 00:50:53,000 Speaker 1: statements he had given for more than eight different people 829 00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:56,520 Speaker 1: over forty three years. So we got a lot of 830 00:50:56,560 --> 00:50:59,960 Speaker 1: stuff on him. So the Association for Research and Enlightenment 831 00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:04,279 Speaker 1: which we mentioned exists today. It is a nonprofit organization 832 00:51:04,480 --> 00:51:08,040 Speaker 1: founded to facilitate the study of his work. You can 833 00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:12,719 Speaker 1: see their website right now. It's Edgar Casey dot org. 834 00:51:13,520 --> 00:51:15,680 Speaker 1: I mean, if you're driving or something, don't don't do 835 00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:20,200 Speaker 1: it while you're driving and see perhaps he has a 836 00:51:20,320 --> 00:51:26,000 Speaker 1: prediction that applies to you, or does he. Because here 837 00:51:26,080 --> 00:51:28,920 Speaker 1: is the thing about Edgar Casey, ladies and gentlemen, he 838 00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:33,000 Speaker 1: because he is so well documented, we also know a 839 00:51:33,080 --> 00:51:37,600 Speaker 1: lot of what he got wrong, not interpretively wrong, but 840 00:51:37,840 --> 00:51:42,000 Speaker 1: factually inaccurate. One example that really sticks out is that 841 00:51:42,480 --> 00:51:45,400 Speaker 1: he said the pilt Down Man was real, the Piltown 842 00:51:45,440 --> 00:51:48,759 Speaker 1: Man being a famous hoax where the jaw of an 843 00:51:48,800 --> 00:51:52,320 Speaker 1: orangutang was combined with the cranium of a modern human 844 00:51:52,760 --> 00:51:58,239 Speaker 1: to argue that there was this evidence of human evolution 845 00:51:58,719 --> 00:52:01,480 Speaker 1: in uh in the area of its discovery, which is 846 00:52:01,560 --> 00:52:06,640 Speaker 1: built down in East Sussex. So Edgar Casey, however, said 847 00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:13,759 Speaker 1: that this was evidence of an Atlantean race or a 848 00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:20,240 Speaker 1: someone who survived in Atlantis or was from Atlantis UH colonizers, 849 00:52:20,280 --> 00:52:24,640 Speaker 1: specifically who had traveled to Britain, and in nineteen fifty three, 850 00:52:25,640 --> 00:52:28,680 Speaker 1: a little bit after Casey's death, it was exposed as 851 00:52:29,400 --> 00:52:34,360 Speaker 1: hopes he read through the Bible entirely each year and 852 00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:40,879 Speaker 1: this helped him reconcile his Christian beliefs with the metaphysical 853 00:52:40,960 --> 00:52:44,560 Speaker 1: stuff he said while he was in a trance. He's 854 00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:48,720 Speaker 1: often called one of the founders of the New Age movement. However, 855 00:52:48,840 --> 00:52:53,840 Speaker 1: critics say that he UH. Critics say that he cribbed 856 00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:58,600 Speaker 1: some stuff from other authors like Carl Young or Elena 857 00:52:59,040 --> 00:53:03,239 Speaker 1: Blovotsky from the Theosophy movement. I don't know if that's 858 00:53:03,320 --> 00:53:06,160 Speaker 1: necessarily plagiarism, though. If it is a real trance, people 859 00:53:06,239 --> 00:53:08,440 Speaker 1: might just be free associating, you know what I mean. 860 00:53:08,600 --> 00:53:11,120 Speaker 1: We've all been in that area between sleep and wakefulness, 861 00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:15,560 Speaker 1: where sleep paralysis occurs and where thoughts spring unbidden. You 862 00:53:15,640 --> 00:53:17,760 Speaker 1: know you're singing a song you love and then realize 863 00:53:17,800 --> 00:53:19,719 Speaker 1: it doesn't exist in the real world and that your 864 00:53:19,760 --> 00:53:22,759 Speaker 1: mind is writing it for you. I'm pretty sure I'm 865 00:53:22,760 --> 00:53:26,280 Speaker 1: there right now, man. So most of the weirder beliefs 866 00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:29,839 Speaker 1: about Atlantis come from Casey. So when you hear people 867 00:53:29,920 --> 00:53:36,560 Speaker 1: talk about fantastically advanced civilization brought to Ruin by meddling 868 00:53:36,719 --> 00:53:42,960 Speaker 1: with strange powers. Some of that comes from Casey, And 869 00:53:43,320 --> 00:53:45,560 Speaker 1: if you would like to learn more about Edgar Casey, 870 00:53:45,680 --> 00:53:48,719 Speaker 1: you can again check out their website Edgar Casey dot org. 871 00:53:49,960 --> 00:53:53,719 Speaker 1: You can also, let's see, I would there are a 872 00:53:53,760 --> 00:53:55,439 Speaker 1: ton of books. Yeah, there are a ton of books, 873 00:53:55,480 --> 00:53:58,360 Speaker 1: but I recommend looking at stuff from that society because 874 00:53:58,360 --> 00:54:04,000 Speaker 1: at least although they definitely are starting with the opinion 875 00:54:04,080 --> 00:54:07,600 Speaker 1: that the guy is correct, h, they're also using the 876 00:54:07,680 --> 00:54:10,480 Speaker 1: actual translations, so you won't run into a nostro damis 877 00:54:10,600 --> 00:54:13,520 Speaker 1: thing where someone made it up. Okay, that makes sense. 878 00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:17,799 Speaker 1: So start with the materials from Edgar Casey dot org 879 00:54:18,080 --> 00:54:21,120 Speaker 1: and then maybe move on to another spot, get some 880 00:54:21,200 --> 00:54:23,080 Speaker 1: other books and stuff like that. If you really want 881 00:54:23,120 --> 00:54:25,200 Speaker 1: to deep delve deep into this. I do like the 882 00:54:25,280 --> 00:54:28,640 Speaker 1: head or the header on the pages. Edgar Casey's are 883 00:54:29,360 --> 00:54:33,600 Speaker 1: a r E, which stands for Association for Research and Enlightenment, 884 00:54:34,719 --> 00:54:38,440 Speaker 1: acted since nineteen thirty one. They do have a health 885 00:54:38,480 --> 00:54:41,440 Speaker 1: SWAS center. Did you mention that already? Because you can 886 00:54:41,480 --> 00:54:44,080 Speaker 1: go you can go there. I mean, if you really 887 00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:47,160 Speaker 1: want to get into this head on out. Where is it? 888 00:54:47,239 --> 00:54:50,759 Speaker 1: Where is the main main office? Looks like it's in 889 00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:56,000 Speaker 1: Virginia Beach, Virginia Beach, Virginia, right, that's where he was 890 00:54:56,239 --> 00:54:59,279 Speaker 1: living at the time. I'm gonna have to see what 891 00:54:59,400 --> 00:55:01,560 Speaker 1: the what the scene is like. It would be nice 892 00:55:01,640 --> 00:55:04,560 Speaker 1: to it'd be nice to visit that. Here's another prediction 893 00:55:04,640 --> 00:55:06,799 Speaker 1: that he got wrong. It seems that the US would 894 00:55:06,800 --> 00:55:10,319 Speaker 1: discovering Atlantean death ray, as in a death ray from 895 00:55:10,360 --> 00:55:15,759 Speaker 1: the Law Civilization of Atlantis in nineteen Get it wrong 896 00:55:16,600 --> 00:55:20,040 Speaker 1: or did he been beat me to the punch? We 897 00:55:20,239 --> 00:55:23,440 Speaker 1: don't know at this point. Perhaps sometime we will in 898 00:55:23,480 --> 00:55:28,280 Speaker 1: the future. We do want to end, however, on something 899 00:55:28,640 --> 00:55:32,879 Speaker 1: a little bit different. We're talking about secrets, so let's 900 00:55:32,920 --> 00:55:35,560 Speaker 1: not just talk about another secret. Let's talk about three 901 00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:41,400 Speaker 1: at once, and that would be the three Secrets of Fatima. 902 00:55:41,840 --> 00:55:44,799 Speaker 1: This is a little bit different because it doesn't involve um, 903 00:55:45,040 --> 00:55:50,520 Speaker 1: it doesn't involve lifelong career sort of profits, you know, 904 00:55:50,719 --> 00:55:54,920 Speaker 1: like Agre Casey Nos Tre Damas Baba Vanga spent decades 905 00:55:55,560 --> 00:56:01,480 Speaker 1: uh making predictions. This, however, is this, however, is something 906 00:56:01,560 --> 00:56:08,560 Speaker 1: different that involves apparently divine direct divine intervention. So these 907 00:56:08,600 --> 00:56:12,319 Speaker 1: three young Portuguese shepherds, Lucia Santos primarily and then her 908 00:56:12,400 --> 00:56:16,880 Speaker 1: cousins are visited by an apparition of the Virgin Mary 909 00:56:17,320 --> 00:56:22,040 Speaker 1: several times, starting on the thirteenth of May nineteen seventeen. 910 00:56:22,360 --> 00:56:24,759 Speaker 1: They said they were visited six times between May and 911 00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:29,480 Speaker 1: October that year. Now this apparition is popularly known as 912 00:56:29,640 --> 00:56:35,680 Speaker 1: Our Lady of Fatima. She entrusted the children with three 913 00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:40,520 Speaker 1: secrets in July v Two of these secrets were revealed 914 00:56:40,560 --> 00:56:44,520 Speaker 1: in nineteen forty one at the request of a bishop 915 00:56:44,640 --> 00:56:49,000 Speaker 1: named Jose Alvas Correa del Silva, and he wanted to 916 00:56:49,360 --> 00:56:53,440 Speaker 1: assist with the publication of a new edition of a 917 00:56:53,600 --> 00:56:58,120 Speaker 1: book on one of the cousins. As for the third secret, 918 00:56:58,680 --> 00:57:01,040 Speaker 1: the bishop ordered her to put it and writing. Lucia 919 00:57:01,080 --> 00:57:03,319 Speaker 1: wrote it down, sealed it in an envelope that wasn't 920 00:57:03,400 --> 00:57:06,680 Speaker 1: not supposed to be opened until nineteen sixty, when it 921 00:57:06,719 --> 00:57:11,120 Speaker 1: would quote appear clearer the text of this third secret. 922 00:57:11,400 --> 00:57:15,080 Speaker 1: It was officially released by poop John Paul the Second 923 00:57:15,200 --> 00:57:18,760 Speaker 1: in two thousand or or was it because some people 924 00:57:19,200 --> 00:57:24,400 Speaker 1: claim that it was not the entire secret, and we 925 00:57:24,520 --> 00:57:27,680 Speaker 1: will never know for sure because only a few people 926 00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:31,320 Speaker 1: were actually in control of that information, right. Yeah. It 927 00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:34,520 Speaker 1: reminds me of when we did some of the we 928 00:57:34,600 --> 00:57:39,480 Speaker 1: did some of our earlier episodes on the the Restricted 929 00:57:39,560 --> 00:57:44,000 Speaker 1: Material and the Vatican Archives, because the secret archives the 930 00:57:44,080 --> 00:57:47,000 Speaker 1: Vatican are real, but they're using secret in a different way. 931 00:57:48,080 --> 00:57:51,920 Speaker 1: It's still tricky though, because you can request something if 932 00:57:51,960 --> 00:57:55,040 Speaker 1: you know exactly what you're requesting. Yeah. I feel like 933 00:57:55,400 --> 00:57:58,080 Speaker 1: someone should make a list of all possible things that 934 00:57:58,200 --> 00:58:02,800 Speaker 1: could ever exist and and just submit them daily to 935 00:58:02,920 --> 00:58:06,080 Speaker 1: the Vatican. What what are the what are the secrets? A? Yes, 936 00:58:06,240 --> 00:58:10,479 Speaker 1: great question. Okay, So the first secret is a vision 937 00:58:10,560 --> 00:58:14,720 Speaker 1: of Hell. I've got some of the text. Our ladies 938 00:58:14,760 --> 00:58:16,920 Speaker 1: showed us a great sea of fire which seemed to 939 00:58:16,960 --> 00:58:19,840 Speaker 1: be under the earth, plunged in this fire, with demons 940 00:58:19,960 --> 00:58:23,880 Speaker 1: and souls in human form like transparent burning embers all 941 00:58:23,960 --> 00:58:28,440 Speaker 1: black and there burnished bronze that goes on. The second 942 00:58:28,760 --> 00:58:32,040 Speaker 1: was a statement that World War One would end, along 943 00:58:32,080 --> 00:58:34,400 Speaker 1: with the prediction of another war during the reign of 944 00:58:34,480 --> 00:58:39,880 Speaker 1: Pope Pious. Uh, and then that would happen if Russia 945 00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:44,920 Speaker 1: did not convert to Catholicism. Yeah, So basically one is 946 00:58:44,960 --> 00:58:48,920 Speaker 1: a vision of hell. One is about communist Russia. Uh, 947 00:58:49,080 --> 00:58:52,880 Speaker 1: and then the third one, though the third one, at 948 00:58:52,960 --> 00:58:57,200 Speaker 1: least the way it was published, was that there would 949 00:58:57,240 --> 00:59:01,960 Speaker 1: be an assassination attempt on Pope John Paul the second 950 00:59:03,600 --> 00:59:09,240 Speaker 1: and that's the crazy thing there was, you know. So 951 00:59:09,480 --> 00:59:12,720 Speaker 1: the thing is that there actually was an assassination attempt 952 00:59:14,040 --> 00:59:18,320 Speaker 1: on Pope John Paul, which occurred on the thirteenth of 953 00:59:18,520 --> 00:59:22,240 Speaker 1: May nine one. You can see a video of that 954 00:59:22,440 --> 00:59:24,440 Speaker 1: if you wish, and just head on over to YouTube. 955 00:59:25,880 --> 00:59:29,480 Speaker 1: And people have thought about this back and forth. You 956 00:59:29,560 --> 00:59:33,360 Speaker 1: know that it is actually a prophecy or is it 957 00:59:33,480 --> 00:59:37,240 Speaker 1: just something that would happen because the Pope is up 958 00:59:37,280 --> 00:59:40,240 Speaker 1: there with the US President or other heads of state 959 00:59:40,520 --> 00:59:43,439 Speaker 1: who would be much more likely than the average person 960 00:59:43,520 --> 00:59:47,320 Speaker 1: to have an assassination attempt occur, perhaps even higher because 961 00:59:47,440 --> 00:59:52,160 Speaker 1: of the vitriol that you can have between religions. So 962 00:59:52,400 --> 00:59:58,040 Speaker 1: in June of two thousand, the that I can finally 963 00:59:58,120 --> 01:00:04,840 Speaker 1: release this uh, this secret. But there there have been 964 01:00:04,920 --> 01:00:08,560 Speaker 1: several other people who were involved with it who said 965 01:00:08,640 --> 01:00:14,560 Speaker 1: that um, that the the handwritten four page text is 966 01:00:14,640 --> 01:00:17,120 Speaker 1: not the real secret or not the full thing. And 967 01:00:17,240 --> 01:00:19,840 Speaker 1: they believe that the third secret is actually composed of 968 01:00:19,960 --> 01:00:23,440 Speaker 1: two texts, one of those is the four page published version. 969 01:00:23,840 --> 01:00:27,760 Speaker 1: The other is a single page letter containing the real 970 01:00:27,920 --> 01:00:31,880 Speaker 1: truth and their Italian journalists like Antonio soshi Um who 971 01:00:32,120 --> 01:00:36,360 Speaker 1: say that they have proof that there's a second secret. 972 01:00:36,800 --> 01:00:38,960 Speaker 1: All right, and here's here's just some of the proof. Quickly. 973 01:00:39,600 --> 01:00:42,520 Speaker 1: Uh Lucia Santo says she wrote the message in the 974 01:00:42,600 --> 01:00:45,920 Speaker 1: form of assigned letter to the bishop. The text is 975 01:00:45,920 --> 01:00:49,240 Speaker 1: supposed to contain words attributed to the Virgin Mary, which 976 01:00:49,280 --> 01:00:53,560 Speaker 1: the published one doesn't really the full secret. Bishops working 977 01:00:53,640 --> 01:00:57,240 Speaker 1: with Pope Pious, Pope John and Pope Paul all commented 978 01:00:57,320 --> 01:00:59,640 Speaker 1: that the text was written on one sheet of paper 979 01:01:00,200 --> 01:01:03,680 Speaker 1: for and the full secret, according to these people, contains 980 01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:10,080 Speaker 1: information about the apocalypse, a great apostasy, and Satanic infiltration 981 01:01:10,560 --> 01:01:14,640 Speaker 1: of the Catholic Church. Who and then you would hear 982 01:01:15,080 --> 01:01:17,160 Speaker 1: I remember a couple of years ago you heard a 983 01:01:17,240 --> 01:01:20,680 Speaker 1: lot about, oh gosh, what is the name of the 984 01:01:20,760 --> 01:01:23,120 Speaker 1: pope that is prior to the one we currently have. 985 01:01:23,280 --> 01:01:26,040 Speaker 1: And then after Pope John Paul, the second was Ratzinger 986 01:01:26,440 --> 01:01:29,320 Speaker 1: Ratzing Okay that I remember hearing lots and lots of 987 01:01:29,880 --> 01:01:34,280 Speaker 1: people talking about Ratzinger being this version of these prophecies 988 01:01:35,080 --> 01:01:39,120 Speaker 1: where he had infiltrated in his group had infiltrated, and 989 01:01:39,160 --> 01:01:41,720 Speaker 1: they're evil. That's the thing about prophecies. I mean, it's 990 01:01:41,800 --> 01:01:45,320 Speaker 1: so easy to let your imagination run wild and use 991 01:01:45,400 --> 01:01:48,400 Speaker 1: it to confirm something that you already believe. You know, 992 01:01:48,600 --> 01:01:51,280 Speaker 1: like this Pope feels like an outsider or something right, 993 01:01:51,880 --> 01:01:55,160 Speaker 1: and to be totally to be totally fair here, one 994 01:01:55,400 --> 01:01:58,600 Speaker 1: of the people who served as Vatican Secretary of State 995 01:01:58,800 --> 01:02:02,960 Speaker 1: until two third Team, a Cardinal Bertoni, wrote a book 996 01:02:03,000 --> 01:02:07,080 Speaker 1: called The Last Secret of Fatima and You, published in 997 01:02:07,200 --> 01:02:10,600 Speaker 1: Italian English, and it has an interview that touches on 998 01:02:10,760 --> 01:02:15,400 Speaker 1: this where the journalists, a journalist named Giuseppe Decarli is 999 01:02:15,720 --> 01:02:20,440 Speaker 1: interviewing Um is interviewing the cardinal, and he says, well, 1000 01:02:20,480 --> 01:02:23,480 Speaker 1: what about this rumor that you're concealing a one page 1001 01:02:23,560 --> 01:02:26,960 Speaker 1: text of the Third Secret that predicts Rome will lose 1002 01:02:27,040 --> 01:02:29,360 Speaker 1: the faith and become the throne of the Antichrist And 1003 01:02:29,440 --> 01:02:31,240 Speaker 1: the cardinal I just want to read this to be fair. 1004 01:02:31,360 --> 01:02:35,360 Speaker 1: The cardinal says, that's absolutely crazy. Are you claiming that 1005 01:02:35,440 --> 01:02:37,920 Speaker 1: the prophecy of Fatima is about the apostasy of the 1006 01:02:38,040 --> 01:02:40,720 Speaker 1: Church of Rome and Fatima is a prediction of Rome's 1007 01:02:40,760 --> 01:02:44,240 Speaker 1: transformation into the throne of the Antichrist, despite the love 1008 01:02:44,360 --> 01:02:47,440 Speaker 1: our lady capitalized, our Lady of Fatima has for the 1009 01:02:47,480 --> 01:02:50,360 Speaker 1: pope and the popes for our lady. Anyone can write books, 1010 01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:54,360 Speaker 1: can based on conspiracy theories, on biased interpretations. Anyone can 1011 01:02:54,440 --> 01:02:57,320 Speaker 1: take sentences out of context and present them as clues 1012 01:02:57,680 --> 01:03:00,560 Speaker 1: to some supposed plot, to avoid the volt the truth, 1013 01:03:00,880 --> 01:03:02,920 Speaker 1: and to transmit it in a code that only the 1014 01:03:03,000 --> 01:03:06,160 Speaker 1: initiates can understand. No, the whole theory you allude to 1015 01:03:06,320 --> 01:03:09,920 Speaker 1: is a fabrication, and this supposedly factual account is actually 1016 01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:12,480 Speaker 1: the sort of device the Mason's used to invent to 1017 01:03:12,800 --> 01:03:16,080 Speaker 1: discredit the church. I'm surprised that journalists and writers who 1018 01:03:16,120 --> 01:03:19,640 Speaker 1: claim to be Catholic let themselves be taken in strong words, 1019 01:03:20,120 --> 01:03:26,200 Speaker 1: really strong words. Who sounds like somebody I don't. My 1020 01:03:26,280 --> 01:03:30,720 Speaker 1: brain goes, oh boy, this guy sounds guilty. But well 1021 01:03:30,880 --> 01:03:33,880 Speaker 1: he might also just be irritated with having heard that, right, 1022 01:03:34,240 --> 01:03:36,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I can imagine how irritating that would be. 1023 01:03:36,920 --> 01:03:39,440 Speaker 1: But at the same time to fight back that well, 1024 01:03:39,520 --> 01:03:43,200 Speaker 1: that's also that's our That's where we're ending, just because 1025 01:03:43,400 --> 01:03:46,520 Speaker 1: this is a thing where it's not as far as 1026 01:03:46,600 --> 01:03:49,520 Speaker 1: the Catholic Church is concerned. This is not a matter 1027 01:03:49,640 --> 01:03:54,240 Speaker 1: of interpretation. This is a true for telling of an 1028 01:03:54,320 --> 01:03:58,760 Speaker 1: event before it occurred. And the other three examples um 1029 01:03:59,040 --> 01:04:03,240 Speaker 1: k C, Bubba Anga and No Stra Damas are all 1030 01:04:03,520 --> 01:04:06,040 Speaker 1: a little bit more muddy m And I know we 1031 01:04:06,120 --> 01:04:08,480 Speaker 1: didn't get to everything, but there's so many profits. No, 1032 01:04:08,600 --> 01:04:12,280 Speaker 1: but it's sure is interesting to have these prophecies like 1033 01:04:12,560 --> 01:04:16,560 Speaker 1: officially sanctioned by such a you know, an important body 1034 01:04:16,840 --> 01:04:19,680 Speaker 1: as you know, the Holy Roman Church. It's pretty intense. 1035 01:04:19,880 --> 01:04:21,200 Speaker 1: There are a lot of There are a lot of 1036 01:04:21,320 --> 01:04:25,560 Speaker 1: interesting things that we could talk about regarding the power 1037 01:04:25,640 --> 01:04:28,440 Speaker 1: structure of the Catholic Church, not the faith or religion 1038 01:04:28,520 --> 01:04:31,040 Speaker 1: in any way. Uh, we've discussed it a bit in 1039 01:04:31,080 --> 01:04:33,840 Speaker 1: the past, but there's just some fascinating things I think 1040 01:04:33,840 --> 01:04:36,600 Speaker 1: we got into when we were talking about possessions and 1041 01:04:37,000 --> 01:04:41,760 Speaker 1: the it's just some old things that still exist now 1042 01:04:42,360 --> 01:04:46,520 Speaker 1: in the Catholic Church. I mean referring to the official exorcise. Yes, yes, 1043 01:04:46,680 --> 01:04:50,880 Speaker 1: that is that is a true and fascinating thing. We 1044 01:04:51,000 --> 01:04:55,760 Speaker 1: would like your help, folks. Do you have any profits 1045 01:04:55,880 --> 01:04:57,760 Speaker 1: that you would like us to look into in the 1046 01:04:57,920 --> 01:05:01,800 Speaker 1: future or prophecies, because we'll tell you right Now, one 1047 01:05:01,880 --> 01:05:05,120 Speaker 1: thing in our experience that occurred was that it was 1048 01:05:05,680 --> 01:05:12,320 Speaker 1: surprisingly difficult to find some of the actual like the 1049 01:05:12,720 --> 01:05:14,680 Speaker 1: what what our some of our co workers would call 1050 01:05:14,720 --> 01:05:19,920 Speaker 1: the actual facts translations? Uh and and to separate the 1051 01:05:21,000 --> 01:05:24,760 Speaker 1: chaff from the wheat, you know, the internet echo chamber. 1052 01:05:24,880 --> 01:05:27,120 Speaker 1: But we would like to hear some more people that 1053 01:05:27,240 --> 01:05:29,640 Speaker 1: we should check out. And I gotta ask, I gotta 1054 01:05:29,640 --> 01:05:32,360 Speaker 1: ask you guys. I know that we went on some 1055 01:05:32,520 --> 01:05:36,160 Speaker 1: tangents and discovered some future episodes we could cover, but 1056 01:05:36,520 --> 01:05:41,920 Speaker 1: what do you think about upcoming prophecies? And what do 1057 01:05:41,920 --> 01:05:44,040 Speaker 1: you what do you think we had talked about this before. 1058 01:05:44,760 --> 01:05:48,240 Speaker 1: Do you think that software and big data will eventually 1059 01:05:48,320 --> 01:05:51,520 Speaker 1: be able to do what human beings have been trying 1060 01:05:51,600 --> 01:05:56,160 Speaker 1: to do predict disasters and changes, big global changes like that. 1061 01:05:57,280 --> 01:06:00,320 Speaker 1: I mean we've I think so. I think we're gonna 1062 01:06:00,360 --> 01:06:03,280 Speaker 1: get darn close. I mean, I'm sure there are folks 1063 01:06:03,760 --> 01:06:06,640 Speaker 1: are at work at it.

Yeah, that's super cool. Not 1066 01:06:16,080 --> 01:06:19,080 Speaker 1: to mention things like predicting trends and you know commerce 1067 01:06:19,200 --> 01:06:23,120 Speaker 1: in I mean, that's another world.
