“The whole world will be involved in the fighting. A unique feature is the internal disintegration of the Western democracies and the invasion of Western Europe by Arab forces.

“The roles of the U.S.A. and U.S.S.R. are not clear in the beginning. The U.S.A. may be involved in the Far-East or at home or both. The U.S.S.R. may want to keep out of the fray at first, while abetting the Arab world, or may be involved in Siberia.

“Civil wars rage in Western Europe. The Church is persecuted; the Pope leaves Rome and dies in exile; an anti-pope is installed in Rome; the Catholic Church is split, leaderless and completely disorganized. Communism is victorious. The Mohammedans invade Europe and commit innumerable atrocities.

“In the west, however, Christians rally around an unexpected leader, an army officer of royal blood, but their chances seem very slim.”

The above quote is taken from Catholic Prophecy: The Coming Chastisement by Yves Dupont, that is compiled of prophecies dating back to the early Church Fathers up to modern times. In the first quote, it states that Western democracies will disintegrate into fighting in the streets, and Western Europe will be invaded by the Arabs.

The Collapse of Western Civilization

We are witnessing this now. I don’t think there are very many places on the earth right now that isn’t fighting or demonstrating over something, whether LGBTQ+, human rights, wanting to overthrow the present regime, or you name it. Currently, the citizens of Belfast, Ireland are rioting in the streets over the attempted beheading of a Scottish resident by a Sudanese immigrant who had just been bussed into Belfast. Scotland is now following suit by demonstrating by the hundreds in Glasgow, Edinburgh, and Ayr while UK Prime Minister, Keir Starmer, sides with the immigrants flooding Great Britain. Similar demonstrations are happening in France, where recently several Catholics were arrested for demonstrating against a presentation entitled Nuit Blanche put on by lesbian activist and anti-Catholic, Barbara Butch (you know, the one who wore a “halo” on her head very reminiscent of the Holy Eucharist while mimicking The Last Supper at the opening festivities of the 2024 Olympics in France), in several churches in Paris, notably Saint-Laurent, and approved by the Diocese of Paris.

Was Pope Benedict XVI Forced Into An Impeded See?

“. . .the Pope leaves Rome and dies in exile.”

I believe this prophecy was fulfilled with Pope Benedict XVI’s sham resignation on February 11, 2013 as intricately described in Andrea Cionci’s riveting book, The Ratzinger Code, Volume I. Cionci explains in erudite detail how Benedict XVI was forced into an impeded see by the Saint Gallen Mafia and other evil globalists hell-bent on taking down the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church founded by Jesus Christ and His Apostles, and changed into a false religion. For those who are unaware of what an impeded see is, here is the official definition from The Code of Canon Law, Chapter Three, Art. I, 412:

An episcopal see is understood to be impeded if by reason of captivity, banishment, exile, or incapacity a diocesan bishop is clearly prevented from fulfilling his pastoral function in the diocese, so that he is not able to communicate with those in his diocese even by letter.

Cionci lays out crystal-clear facts quoting many well-known scholars and theologians that Benedict XVI was forced into an impeded see, arguing that the Pope did not resign or abdicate the Throne of Peter but was literally forced out.

The following is an excerpt from the Introduction of Cionci’s 2022 book:

“Il papa è uno solo” – “There is only one pope” – Benedict XVI has been repeating for nine years, without ever explaining which of the two it is. In all this time, not even by chance, he has never added that “...it’s Francis.” The oddity was noted, but it was then confirmed in 2021 by his private secretary, Msgr. Georg Gänswein who, responding to Fr. Enrico Bernasconi, one of those priests who has been excommunicated because they are faithful only to Pope Ratzinger, said: “There is only one pope and it is clear that it is Francis.” So, if “it is clear,” Benedict XVI never said it explicitly. , ,”

“. . . We have examined in depth the context that led the Pontiff to this dramatic choice in 2013, and also all the juridical, theological, historical and cultural reasons that demonstrate that Jorge Mario Bergoglio has never been and never could be the true pope. Some scholars say that he is a false pope, or a usurper; others say that he is an antipope, of which there have been about forty in the history of the Church. Nihil sub sole novum.”

One of Cionci’s chief antagonists in this realm is Steven O’Reilly, former CIA agent who argues on a recent Conor Gallagher show that Benedict XVI’s resignation must be taken at face value and that arguments trying to prove that Ratzinger was forced out are the product of conspiracy theorists. A recent article in Zenit builds on this: “Nearly thirteen years after Benedict XVI’s historic resignation—the first papal renunciation in centuries—the Church continues to live with the consequences of that unprecedented gesture. Yet on the central question of its validity, there is no institutional doubt. What persists instead is a narrative sustained at the margins, periodically revived but consistently answered by the same convergence of law, theology, and historical fact.” (Di Georgio, V. (April 20, 2026). Is the Vatican investigating the validity of Benedict XVI’s resignation? The truth behind a confirmation by the Vatican Tribunal. Zenit.)

Another who disagrees with Cionci’s supposition is none other than Dr. Edmund Mazza, one of the foremost advocates that Benedict XVI did not resign the papacy validly. He responded unsympathetically to an open letter addressed to himself and Ann Barnhardt from Cionci on May 19, 2026 in Stilum Curiae. Cionci replied to Mazza’s arguments on May 25, 2026 here.

The Triumph of Communism and the War Against Christianity

No longer are the enemies of Christ speaking in veiled terms. They are declaring in brazen rhetoric that Man is the center of the universe and not some invisible God. Pope Leo XIV enlarges on this in his encyclical, Magnifica Humanitas, and its spotlight on man as the center of the universe.

Dupont (1970) wrote:

“St. Methodius was one of the earliest prophets of the Christian era to foresee the victory of Communism. He did not name Communism, but correlations with other prophecies will make this clear. Many other prophecies say that the victory of Communism will seem so certain that they, the Communists, will throw up their caps and shout about their triumph. At that very moment a cosmic phenomenon will take place, and help the designs of the future King’s small army (it is only later that his army will grow to be very large). This most Christian prince will reduce the Communists to a rabble.

“Pius IX alludes to the same episode, although in different terms: he sees the cosmic phenomenon that will follow the triumph of the Communist revolution.” (pp. 14-15.)

We see the effects of communism in our government, schools, corporations, and businesses more and more pushing God out of the equation while forcefully asserting diversity, equity, and inclusion. But what that really means is a breaking down of class systems to basically two: the haves and the have-nots, the rich and the poor. A glaring example of this is the World Economic Forum’s bold claim that in the near future, “You will own nothing and be happy.” However, in a 2023 research article, the authors claim that such a future would be bleak. (Stewart, R., Charles, M.B., Page, J. (September 2023). A future with no individual ownership is not a happy one: Property theory shows why. Science Direct.)

The Alien Deception

Perhaps one of the most sinister propagandas taking place in our world today is the belief that we are being monitored by alien beings from outer space. Steven Spielberg’s Disclosure Day is a testament of this. In the marketing of his film, he declared that watching his film would cause people to question their faith in God while instead turning to belief in aliens. (Daniel O’Connor gives an urgent warning on Disclosure Day here. I urge all to watch it.)

At the end of Spielberg’s epic, we (the people of the earth) are given a simple yet powerful one-word command: LISTEN.

Hmmm. . .where have we heard that message before?
