This is a truly bizarre twist of fate. I can't actually *say* anything, since I shouldn't be making fun of dying popes, but... wow.

Doesn't Nostradamus predict that the end of the world comes after two more popes die (after this one)? Wouldn't that make the very next pope (if this pretender pope is considered a pope) the very last pope before the end of the world?

Certainly, it would match up with the rest of the Signs, like George W. Bush (who is, as according to prophecy, the antichrist).
