The Pope is the Antichrist.

As I said in the comments I will post my contentions this round since Pro did not finish his Contentions in order to make it fair.Contention 1: The three Anti-ChristsNostradamus predicted three anti-Christs. Let's see how correct they are and their attacks against the church as well.NapoleonNapoleon was the first anti-christ. "An Emperor shall be born near Italy,Who shall do great harm to the Empire,People shall say what company does he keep,It shall be said that he is less of a prince than a butcher."France being near Italy. Napolean rises to become Emporer of France after the French Revolution. Napoleon also had suffered hundreds of thousands of casulaties on the side of the French and his opponents. "From simple Soldier, he shall head the Empire,From the short military Mantle (plain soldier) to the long military Mantle,Happy with the Army, but hating the church,He will be hurtful to the priesthood as water which swells the sponge"Napoleon was a soldier who helped fight for France against Austria and Britian during the French Revolution. His name in Greek mean Exterminator and no one in history before then has used that name. Napoleon fought two wars against the Papal states (empire of the Roman Catholic Church) and forced the Puis the 7th into exile. The Pope died while under the care of Napoleon and Napoleon used this as a political tatic when he burried the Pope and brought in the Catholic Church into the French Empire. Napoleon was also excommunicated by the Church as well. (http://en.wikipedia.org...) and (http://propheticals.angelfire.com...) Napoleon was code named “PAU, NAY, LORON.” Which are 3 small cities in southern France and when Rearanged it spells out NAPOLEON ROY. HitlerNostradamus also predicted a man named Hister (Hitler) who bore the crooked cross. (The swastica) Let's look at the Phrophacies."The great speech-maker audaciously and un-shamefully,Shall get himself elected as Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces,By the boldness of his disputes,He shall cease all diplomatic relations, in the city the fearful shall re-arm themselves."Hence, Hitler began to rebuild his military and made annexations of Czechslovakia, Austria, and Poland."Wild beasts will be crossing the river because of hunger,Most of the battlefield will be against Hitler,In cages of iron, battle tanks, will he send his great army,When the child of Germany observes no law."Here Nostrodamus shows Hitler's Blitzkreig methoods."The exiles (the Jews) deported to the (European) Isles,By a very cruel monarch (Head of State),They shall be killed and then their bodies burned,Because they had been marked (as Jews)."Here he talks about the Holocaust and the Jewish Concentration camps. Jews were exiled and were forced to wear the Star of David. Now let me throw in a Bible verse to show that there is a connection here. "The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah. Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth; for the Lord has spoken: “Children have I reared and brought up, but they have rebelled against me. The ox knows its owner, and the donkey its master's crib, but Israel does not know, my people do not understand.” Ah, sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, offspring of evildoers, children who deal corruptly! They have forsaken the Lord, they have despised the Holy One of Israel, they are utterly estranged. Why will you still be struck down? Why will you continue to rebel? The whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint." (Isaiah 1:1-31) Here we see that Isaiah predicts that Israel will be punished and stuck down. He warns the Israelites that they must repent or face a grim future as they did in World War 2. Job 12:14-18 "If he tears down, none can rebuild; if he shuts a man in, none can open. If he withholds the waters, they dry up; if he sends them out, they overwhelm the land. With him are strength and sound wisdom; the deceived and the deceiver are his. He leads counselors away stripped, and judges he makes fools. He looses the bonds of kings and binds a waistcloth on their hips."In this one here Job shows how destructive Hitler is. He turned kings (leaders of other nations) into slaves as he conquered a large portion of Europe. MabusIn 1999, seven months, From the sky (North) a great frightening King will come The great King of Angoulmois lives again. Before (and) after March (2000), (he) rules for happiness. We currently do not know who the third anti-christ is, but from here we could see it might be Vladamir Putin as he took office in July of 1998, but in 1999 he became acting Prime Minister of the Russian Federation. “From the Orient shall come the treacherous one, To strike at the Heirs of Romulus from the Adriatic sea, With his Libyan fleet, The inhabitants of Malta and other nearby islands shall tremble."Here we can see that the heirs of Romulus may refur to the Western Roman Empire and Oriental (asian) would make Putin a perfect canadate here. (http://worldnewsdailyreport.com...) “And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him” Ezeikiel 28.Many scholars state that Maggog is China and Gog is Russia. Meshech has Greek relatance to Moscow. While in the Prince James version it uses the Prince of Rosh. Which can be close to Rus which was indeed an ancent name for Russia. Tubal referrs to the Tobol River which was where the capital of the Russian control of Serbia was. (http://www.thetrumpet.com...)Or perhaps it's someone else?"Mabus will soon die, then will come,A horrible undoing of people and animals,At once one will see vengeance,One hundred powers, thirst, famine, when the comet will pass."Perhaps this is Saddam? Saddam was left still in power after the Persian Gulf War of 1990. He came back and began commiting mass atrocities. Nostradamus also says that there say be 3 Kingdoms from the west to unite against the west. Possibly the Axis of Evil? Also if you invert Saddam's name and change around the ds then you can see it's Mabbus."The antichrist very soon annihilates the three, twenty-seven years his war will last. The unbelievers are dead, captive, exiled; with blood, human bodies, water and red hail covering the earth."Saddam is looked to in the Arab World as a Martyer. It seems very likely that the War on Terror or the turmoil in the Middle East will last 27 years. The forum of Jihad that Saddam used can been seen likely here as jihadists kill non-believers and those who disagree with the Muslum faith. (http://www.crystalinks.com...)
