(7,018 posts)there will be only one more pope after the present one - named by
Nostradamus and the sainted Irish mystic who lived 300 years before
Nostradamus.
Yes, new religions are literally born every day. I had a neighbor once
who brought me to her church. It was a nice medium-sized building
and looked very new. I asked her how many members there were.
She said,"150." I said, "I mean, throughout the whole country." She
replied that this was it, the only one. It was started 10 years
previously by two men. It was of the evangelical, fundamentalist
genre: those who didn't believe in their way of interpreting the
Bible would go to you know where.
Later on I read that there were some 20,000 such religions or sects in the
US alone!
My guess is that the USA alone has more such tiny sects than the rest of
the world put together.
Do we really need more of them?
