Pope Francis oversees release of peace doves; birds get attacked

January 28, 2014

Pope Francis was the king of public relations in 2013, but something went terribly wrong for the pontiff today. In the window at St. Peter's Square, he stood beside two children, who each released "peace doves" over the crowd. But shortly thereafter, a crow and a seagull attacked the birds in front of thousands of people.

MYTH and SPIRITUALITY

Crows are associated with war and death. Seagulls are associated with pestilence. "Seagulls were sent by the Great Creator to purify the pestilence." (Bobby Lake-Thom/Spirits of the Earth)

My Thoughts:

With all the problems and talk about wars and peace deals in the Middle East, the Pope symbolizes that peace is what we should all strive for, so he releases two doves. To me this signifies that two (or more) countries should be at peace with each other. But then comes along Death and Pestilence to mire the process. Satan and his demons are alive and well on planet Earth. On the other hand this could have been just an unfortunate mishap for the doves and the other birds that frequent the area were just hungry. But, please notice that in the video the dove that was attacked by the crow probably was killed as it "was pecked numerous times." While the dove that was attacked by the seagull did manage to escape and flew off, whereabouts unknown. Unfortunate mishap or omen? What are your thoughts?

¹ And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.

² And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.

³ And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.

⁴ And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.

⁵ And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.

⁶ And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.

⁷ And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.

⁸ And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
