3/15/21: PETRUS ROMANUS – IDES OF A STRANGER W/ LEO ZAGAMI

Today is March 15th — the Ides of March.

Every year when possible, I observe the Ides of March, mainly because it is a day where we have to admit that there are conspiracies focused on destroying governments in order to reorganize them.

March 15 is the historic dark day of the assassination of Julius Caesar in 44 B.C., by some fifty conspirators, many said to be friends. They were anxious either to save the Republic, as they saw it, or to gain power for themselves. In either alternative, they failed. Rome came to be ruled not by Julius Caesar or Republican opponents, but by a distant relative, Octavian, whom we know as Caesar Augustus.

With considerable help from William Shakespeare, Caesar became a name of political perplexity, a name that recurs in many languages. Christians themselves are admonished, often to their surprise, to “render” things not to God but precisely to this “Caesar.” Caesar has “things”, not everything, but some things.

In the history of political thought, many have chastised Christianity for its failure to combat the perceived “Caesars” of their time. Nietzsche thought Christians to be a hapless bunch of wimps who turned one cheek after another to stand for nothing but weakness. In the country that uses the word “Tsar” for Caesar, the Church has often been seen as merely the state at prayer, at best useful in carrying out the state’s will.

Though the Roman Republic stood for several centuries, tensions within the government began to tear it apart. Civil wars started between groups with different loyalties, which brought about the transformation of the republic into an empire.

Historians look back at the Roman Empire and there have been many comparisons to what was as opposed as to what is now — and whether or not we are about to fall into the trap of what is called Ceasarism.

We have a president who rules mainly by decrees, a Congress that offers little resistance, and a court system busily embodying the latest ideologies.

Some say that we live in times where we need a Brutus to step in and correct what we see as corruption but as a force of a appropriateness we are now allowing a new empire to be built upon what will be the ashes of America.

We know that governments repeatedly ignore or trample on the rights of the people, and actively abuse and mistreat the people. None of this is controversial.

History catalogs the machinations of liars, thieves, bullies and narcissists and their devastating effects. In modern times too, evidence of corruption and extraordinary deceptions abound.

We know, without question, that politicians lie and hide their connections and that corporations routinely display utter contempt for moral norms – that corruption surrounds us.

We know that revolving doors between the corporate and political spheres, the lobbying system, corrupt regulators, the media and judiciary mean that wrongdoing is practically never brought to any semblance of genuine justice.

The world at large has been deemed ungovernable and now the words from the Bishop of Rome have been spoken ironically on the Ides of March, declaring that the world must be prepared for the New World Order.

Pope Francis insists in a new book, things will never be the same in a post-pandemic world, calling instead for the establishment of a “new world order.”

In a book-length interview with journalist Domenico Agasso titled God and the World to Come, scheduled for release in Italian on Tuesday, the pontiff reiterates his case for the Great Reset with a shift away from financial speculation, fossil fuels, and military build-up toward a green economy based on inclusiveness.

After the coronavirus pandemic, “no one today can afford to rest easy,” the pope declares in a lengthy extract from the book published by Vatican News. “The world will never be the same again. But it is precisely within this calamity that we must grasp those signs which may prove to be the cornerstones of reconstruction.”

“Let us all keep in mind that there is something worse than this crisis: the drama of wasting it,” he states. “We cannot emerge from a crisis the same as before: we either come out better or we come out worse.”

We can heal injustice “by building a new world order based on solidarity, studying innovative methods to eradicate bullying, poverty and corruption,” he adds, “all working together, each for their own part, without delegating and passing the buck.”

This New World Order will be based on eradicating inequalities and attending to the environment, the pope affirms.

“We can no longer blithely accept inequalities and disruptions to the environment,” he declares. “The path to humanity’s salvation passes through the creation of a new model of development, which unquestionably focuses on coexistence among peoples in harmony with Creation.”

As a path toward a solution, Francis points toward young people involved in “ecological movements.”

“If we don’t roll up our sleeves and immediately take care of the Earth, with radical personal and political choices, with an economic ‘green’ turn by directing technological developments in this direction, sooner or later our common home will throw us out the window,” he insists.

The pope also asserts his conviction the world needs to be healed from “the dominant speculative mentality” to be re-established “with a ‘soul’” in order to reduce the gap between those who have access to credit and those who do not.

Again the dominant speculative mentality he speaks of is the sin of theorizing that there is a plot to destroy our way of life.

It is yet again an attack on speculating on a world conspiracy while at the same time telling is that there is a conspiracy of world leaders preparing us for a global reset.

The speculative mind is now realizing that what is being proposed in the Beast System foretold in the Bible — another Roman Empire — the empire ruled by the Antichrist.

The first President of the United Nations General Assembly, Paul-Henri Spaak, who was also a Prime Minister of Belgium and one of the early planners of the European Union , as well as a Secretary-General of NATO, affirmed,

“We do not want another committee, we have too many already. What we want is a man of sufficient stature to hold the allegiance of all the people of the world and to lift us up out of the economic morass into which we are sinking. Send us such a man, and whether he be God or devil, we will receive him.”

Spaak is literally asking that we have a deliverer or even a political messiah or great Caesar.

Put people in a place where they feel they are losing a grip on their personal freedom and watch them as their minds unravel and every programmed fear is exposed and every frayed nerve is left exposed, raw and ready to snap. When the nerves snap and the mind is open, what suggestion will enter in? What can possess it?

What course will the mind take? We are having those questions answered every time we see the mainstream narrative reinforce the forecasted doom on the horizon. When times become hopeless and the tragedies pile up and the morgues are full to capacity, the American people, maybe even the world will want a Savior or a Caesar.

What of Caesarism? Why should we guard against it? Some have said that they need to be aware of their leader’s direction and whether or not he is favored by the God of the people.

You need to understand that Caesarism is the revival of the doctrines and practices of the Roman Empire in its later and worst stages. It is, in short, an absolute and irresponsible despotism, which loves to display the prowess of its powers by abusing the trust of the people, and marching their armies and enforcers through cities in order to deter any and all civil unrest towards their grip and power grab.

There are many people who see the lifestyle of living in a divinely inspired empire as a tranquil experience.

The truth is that in this future empire if you are not enslaved for the greater good, you are a nobody doing nothing.

More often than not, especially in times that have been deemed uncertain, apocalyptic ideas have been issued in the expectation that human history might screech to a halt at any moment and dissolve into some kind of apocalyptic judgment. Protestant Christians have been especially susceptible to these schemes, especially the more conservative Protestants known as evangelicals, because of their inclination to read and interpret the Bible, literally.

They have tended to focus on the New Testament Book of Revelation as well as the Book of Daniel in the Hebrew Bible. Both texts are replete with imagery and allegory that would strike most casual readers as downright bizarre, but many Christians throughout American history have expended untold energies trying to fit these writings into an interpretive framework for understanding the end of time.

These notions, grounded in a literalistic interpretation of biblical prophecies, admit of many different constructions, and evangelical Christians who agree on such issues as biblical inerrancy, meaning the Bible is infallible without any mistakes or that left out inconvenient texts were left out for a reason and of course church leaders that will argue bitterly over whether or not God’s elect will go through the tribulation which is seven years of rule by the Antichrist predicted in Revelation.

It is time to ask isn’t it ironic that the Pope has aligned his politics with the segment of society who reject God and despise the teachings of the Church?

It is painfully obvious that the pyramidal, societal and legal structures that humanity has allowed to develop are exactly the kind of dominance hierarchies that undoubtedly favor the sociopath.

Sociopaths do not choose their worldview consciously and are simply unable to comprehend why normal people would put themselves at such an incredible disadvantage by limiting themselves with conscientiousness and empathy, which are as beyond the understanding of the sociopath as a world without them are to the human being.

We have been warned about power and betrayal is Shakespeare’s Caesar and we should be aware of Prophecy as we see the calendar and understand the reverberating reminders brought forth on the Ides,

There is a prophecy of St. Francis of Assisi that speaks of a future Pope with his name.

“There will be an uncanonically elected Pope who will cause a great schism, there will be diverse thoughts preached which will cause many, even those in the different orders to doubt, yea, even agree with those heretics which will cause my Order to divide, then will there be such universal dissensions and persecutions that if those days were not shortened even the elect would be lost.”

A 13th century prophecy that speaks of the “black pope” also says that he will be a “great and mighty “pope with a secret. It is during his short reign that a known Monarch dies.

In yet another chilling synchronicity, Saint Hildegard wrote in 1129 that the time of the lineage of Popes leading to the final Pontiff would happen in a time where the world faces famine, earthquakes, strange weather and extra-terrestrial dangers.

“A powerful wind will rise in the North carrying heavy fog and the densest dust (darkness?) by divine command and it will fill their throats and eyes so they will cease their savagery and be stricken with a great fear.

Then comes the warning of a Comet.

According to Hildegard:

Before the Comet comes, many nations, the good excepted, will be scoured with want and famine. The great nation in the ocean that is inhabited by people of different tribes and descent by an earthquake, storm and tidal waves will be devastated. It will be divided, and in great part be submerged.

The Comet by its tremendous pressure, will force much out of the ocean and flood many countries, causing much want and many plagues. All sea coast cities will be fearful and many of them will be destroyed by tidal waves, and most living creatures will be killed and even those who escape will die from a horrible disease. For in none of those cities does a person live according to the laws of God.”

Scientists are saying that During the first two weeks of December, Comet Leonard will be accessible to early risers, visible a couple of hours before sunrise, low in the east-northeast sky. It will track through the constellations Coma Berenices, Boötes and Serpens Caput.

It should be an easy object to see with a small telescope or a pair of binoculars — and with any luck, with the unaided eye. During the latter half of December, as the comet gets closer to the sun, it will gradually get absorbed into the light of dawn and finally disappear from view.

Hildegard’s prophecy seems to be on track .

All prophecies are fascinating with regards to the Popes and it is interesting to note that the name Francis was chosen by Pope to represent a “rebuilding of faith” could it be that this includes the reset or the rebuilding of world government?

The Republic, like Rome, chooses no longer to be governed by its founding principles especially as very few seem to hold them to be self-evident. The cry – “We have no king but Caesar” – seems prophetic.

We have neo-barbarians at the gate. We have little will to deal with them. We are mocked because we have the finest equipment, but no will to fight. The heart of our civilization has disappeared in a relativism that cannot distinguish friend and foe, truth and falsity. Not only do our people not know who they are, but even what they are. We no longer choose to understand families, truth, or polity.

We think now of Caesar as a single popular leader who rules for his own good. However now, pontiffs, kings and presidents are all keeping their eyes on a New World Order — and no one else can see because they wish to discredit it as conspiracy theory.
