there was a Catholic reason for this, the Fatima Sheppards. there was an "apparition" of Virgin Mary and some "Prophecies" that were really imprinted on all Catholics over 50 years old. pretty much anti-russian propaganda. they silently pedal back from them in the last 25 years. but last time I visited sn important catholic monument internationally, most of the people in the bus knew about them, how they talk about the end of the world but never realized the Vatican already made them public all and it was a sham.

also end of the world prophecies are a Catholic meme
my favorite is Pope Sylvester II in 1000 AD

- rich_sasha 7mo ago> pretty much anti-russian propaganda Russia bit of the prophecies: > [...] If my requests are [not] heeded, Russia [...] will spread her errors throughout the world, causing wars and persecutions of the Church. The good will be martyred; the Holy Father will have much to suffer; various nations will be annihilated. I'm not sure it is fair to call it propaganda when it is bang on the money. Even the Holy Father bit checks out, seeing how John Paul II narrowly survived a KGB-sponsored assassination attempt.
- rainworld 7mo agoThose who triumphed over “Russia” (also a tell) had anything but immaculate hearts. > The good will be martyred; the Holy Father will have much to suffer; various nations will be annihilated. Rings a bell. Errors are spreading but “Russian” they are not. > The date of the attempted assassination, 13 May 1981, was the 64th anniversary of the first apparition of the Virgin Mary to the children at Fátima. Do I have to spell it out.
