Everyone feels that something is coming. Something ominous, biblical, fatal, and final. There are many Catholic prophecies describing both the times we live in right now, as well as the times we are moving into. But news junkies read and think in a certain geopolitical style. Fortunately for such folks, Heaven can even speak to them.

A recent explosion of an oil tanker’s hull in the Gulf of Oman just reeks of a false flag set up. The world is so completely inured to the U.S.’s bullshit at this point, that Iran is even calling out America, using the very words, “false flag.” Whether Iran is right or wrong about this, the overall message is unavoidable: it’s becoming an open secret that the U.S. is increasingly not trusted. So, in that context, it makes sense that one day a Russia-China alliance would destroy all of our bases, rocket attack New York City, and invade the West Coast. Is it really that inconceivable to think those two super powers wouldn’t get together and say, “Man, I’m tired of their nonsense. Let’s put them out of power?”

In any event, those future actions were forseen by German Cathoic mystic, Alois Irlamier (1894-1959). This humble man was one day graced with visions of the future by the Blessed Virgin Mary. While a lot of his prophecy was reserved for his local area in Altotting, Bavaria, he also knew how World War 3 would come about. A quick run-down:

1. First there’s an economic vitality like never before.

2. A lapse of faith follows, like never before.

3. Then a corruption of morals, like never before.

4. A huge number of strangers flood the country.

5. Then comes a massive inflation. Paper money looses its value more and more.

6. Soon follows the revolution.

7. Then overnight the Russians raid the West.

We’ve experienced stages 1 through 3. People in the West are rich, individualistic, and hideous. And right now, at this time, we are witnessing stage 4 with the invasion of Europe. What’s next in our news cycle? Hyperinflation. We all know it. The shell game that keeps our economies afloat will only last so long. Destabilizing the U.S. dollar is not hard; we’re just waiting for China to pull the economic trigger.

After that, understandably, there will be civil war everywhere. After all, a lot of people are pissed off at the lack of leadership among our “elected” oligarchies. Irlamier has this to say about one particular city, which very much sounds like Paris:

The city with the iron tower becomes the victim of their own people. They ignite everything. Revolution is happening, and everything is going wildly…The large city with the high iron tower is on fire. But this has been done by the own people, not by those, which came from the east. And I can exactly see that the city is made equal to the ground. And in Italy it is going wildly too. They kill many people there and the Pope flees, but many clergymen will be killed, many churches collapse.

Paris is very much a fulcrum upon which we can understand many other prophecies given to man. Whenever I see Paris in a prophecy, alarms go off, and I pay attention. If you need a roadmap for the coming Chastisement, look to Paris.

Step 7 of our downfall is rather straightforward: Russia tires of our madness and attacks the West. Irlamier tells of many details, such as chemical weapons, places that will be avoided, and even what sounds like a nuclear bomb being dropped in the English Channel, creating an enormous tsunami and devestating Southern England. Not to mention the assault on America that I mentioned at the beginning of this article.

After that? God Himself tires of our insanity, and the world is treated to The Flood Part 2. Only it’s not a flood, but the Three Days of Darkness—a 72-hour period of darkness and death, during which fire falls from the sky, and every demon is let loose from Hell. There are many prophecies of this event, and traditional Catholics are well aware of it. The rest of the world, on the other hand, isn’t, which is probably why 2/3rds of the world or more will be killed off during this moment of severe punishment.

After all this comes a final period of peace—and monarchy, by the way—until those last days of the Antichrist, himself. What is to become of America after all this? Think Africa. Think of a vast continent, populated with people in their own tribes, disunited, and cut off from the rest of the world. That is our fate, here in the States. It is highly doubtful that anyone will be flying—or even sailing—back to civilization after what we go through here. George Washington’s Constitution won’t save anyone from what’s about to happen. Anyone left alive will be completely isolated. Ron Paul, eat your heart out.

You can hear a podcast going into far more detail here at Return to Tradition, and I would be remiss if I didn’t thank the folks over at Cathinfo for resurrecting this topic on their discussion board (lots of details to read over there, too).

These are the vials of The Apocalypse that will be poured out onto us. I honestly can’t see us continuing much longer outside of hyperinflation for more than a decade, though I’ve been surprised before. I wouldn’t give it more than 20 years, tops. It all depends on God’s mercy, I suppose. But once hyperinflation begins, things will speed up. Fast.

Enjoy these final days of plenty, ladies and gentlemen. Enjoy this technology, this knowledge, and your ability to travel so far and so fast. Because ours is a time like that before The Flood. And when the cataclysm hits us, the people on the other side will look back at our wonders with amazement. Just as we will be amazed —and terrified—by our own madness and the unstoppable wrath of God. Cherish this time you’re living on Earth, friends, for the things we are about to see is the stuff of legends.
