According to that source, the prophecies appear in a book published by Benedictine friar Arnold Wion (or de Wyon) in 1590. The prophecies are named for St. Malachy (1094-1148), an Irish Benedictine bishop, but historians suspect that the prophecies were written in Wion's time (not necessarily by Wion) five hundred years after Malachy lived because the ones before Wion are detailed and accurate while the ones after Wion are vague and could apply to any pope.
Wion's book calls for pope number 112 in Wion's list, Peter of Rome, to be the last to reign. After that, it says, Rome "will be destroyed and the awful judge will pass judgement on his people." Wion's #1 in the prophecies is Celestine II (1143-1144), pope #165; and Wion's #111 in the prophecies is the current pope, Benedict XVI, pope #265. (That is, Benedict XVI is the 265th pope since the first pope, Peter.)
Here is a listing of the prophecies:
Another problem is the count. These sites say that Benedict XVI is #265 (or #266 if you count Stephen II, who died before being consecrated).
Other sites list different numbers of popes. And then there are all the antipopes included in Wion's list.It should be noted that true believers already have an excuse prepared when the world does not come to an end.
There are some topics which, although interesting in themselves, should be avoided in 3333. They can and will get you into trouble. Here are some of them.
Also avoid the following UNLESS you are willing to read extensively all the sources with which your professors are familiar and you have a new angle on the topic. Remember that your professors want to learn something while reading your paper. We will cover these topics in lecture.
