Could he be the one in Brackin's transmission? I think that statement about his dead being 'scientific impossibility' is an indication that he's not a simple student.

Note that "Brother Theo" is actually Al's old profile. All the posts on deus-city are now labelled with that name. Has Al totally gone off the deep end or something?

Anyhow, another e-mail:

Quote:
I've been debating whether to tell you all this true believers - for your own safety - but as you know foo's hack the feed site is up and we can't stop it. I'm not even sure we should since we are using it ourselves and the transmissions would come anyway to whoever is in control of the technology now.

I'm forwarding you a message from one of our spies below. If you want the code to get in you have it now... thanks to him, but I can't caution you enough... we don't know what lies on the other side of this "processing". If you are willing to do this for what you believe then I salute you. I have not yet "registered" for their cattle round up. But for those of you who have decided to take down the system from the inside... Thanks.

Our numbers are great, and I don't know how much more I can do for you now alone. Something deep inside me hurts - and I've decided to find Foo. I can't just sit and wait anymore. Anyone who wants to help me look - can. Not to worry, the feed is in good hands and there will be a place for us to continue to see what foo sees. I cannot risk one of foo's double agents knowing its location though, so you will have to find it. Out there...

Some of you already know that my first BLOGSPOT.COM Site connectiOn was trackeD And i can no Longer post there with safety. this is why I have hidden my contact info and am now postIng elsewhere. mosT of You have the PeRfect clues needed tO find out where it is uP, and wHosE help i am now enlisTing to protect the feed.

Wish me well, when I can find a secure internet portal I will use it, and I will not forget you true believers. Please do not give up on me.
-AB


Capital letters spell SODALITY PROPHET.

A sodality is a paragroup within the Catholic Church -- they get special missions or something.

Presumably THEO NOSTRADAME and SODALITY PROPHET are hints that will direct us to his new blog.

ETA: Never mind, that was easy:

Brother Theo 111:-19 (latin translation)

(Latin-English translation)

And to give is me anything made or reed similar a green twig , and word is me : To get up arise , and Metz sacred precinct Dei , and altare , and adorantes upon to go : atrium but , and is out of doors sacred precinct ejice outdoors , and that not metiaris that : since to give is gentibus , and state sanctam calcabunt month forty two : and dabo two testibus meis , and prophetabunt days a thousand ducentis sixty , mantle purse. THESE are loyal to the king are duæ olivæ and two lamp stand upon to sprinkle Demesne earth stantes. And if you wish anyone voluerit these bad , fire exiet about ore their , and devorabit personal enemy their : and if you wish anyone voluerit these lædere , so it behooves he to fall. THESE are loyal to the king government power to limp cælum , that not pluat days prophetiæ ipsorum : and power government over, upon water convertendi these upon what blood , and to strike hard earth omni plague quotiescumque voluerint.

And upon that hour be made is terræmotus large , and to fall down part state cecidit : and murderer are upon terræmotu by name of men seven a thousand times : and remainder upon fear are holy mass , and dederunt fame Deo cæli. Væ accordingly abiit : and lo væ third to come quickly. And septimus angel war trumpet cecinit : and factæ are voces magnæ upon cælo dicentes :

Deed is rule hujus to clean , Demesne our and Christi ejus , and regnabit upon sæcula sæculorum. out of ones senses And twenty quatinus older , quae upon to sprinkle Dei sixteen upon to sit suis ceciderunt upon face persuasive discourse , and adoraverunt Of the gods dicentes : Give thanks agimus to you , Lady God all-powerful , quae are , and quae were , and quae breeze are : because accepisti valor tuam magnam , and regnasti. And angry are gentes , and to come anger your and time mortuorum trial , and to repeat pay servis tuis prophetis , and to sanctify , and timentibus name your tiny and magnis , and banished these quae corruperunt earth.

And openly is sacred precinct Dei upon cælo : and visa is chest testamenti ejus upon Templeuve ejus , and facta are to flash , and voces , and terræmotus , and onis magna.

And when finierint proof its , animal quæ to climb about hell , the making adversity these war , and conquer those , and to fall these. And fleshly their jacebunt upon street state magnæ quæ vocatur spiritualiter Sodoma , and Ægyptus , when and Master their crucifixus is. And videbunt about tribubus , and the people , and language , and gentibus fleshly their very three day and half : and fleshly their not without poni upon memorial : and inhabitantes earth gaudebunt over, upon those , and jucundabuntur : and to give to send reciprocally , since THESE are loyal to the king two prophetæ cruciaverunt these , quae habitabant over, upon earth.

And after day three and half , breath vitæ a Deo within upon these. And steterunt over, upon going on foot suos , and fear large cecidit over, upon these quae viderunt these. And you will be heard vocem magnam about cælo dicentem these : To climb huc. And ascenderunt upon cælum upon nube : and viderunt those personal enemy their.

Brother Theo Blog Header (latin translation)

Et dabo duobus testibus meis, et prophetabunt diebus mille ducentis sexaginta, amicti saccis. Hi sunt duæ olivæ et duo candelabra in conspectu Domini terræ stantes. Et si quis voluerit eos nocere, ignis exiet de ore eorum, et devorabit inimicos eorum: et si quis voluerit eos lædere, sic oportet eum occidi.


(Latin-English translation)

And dabo two testibus meis , and prophetabunt days a thousand ducentis sixty , mantle purse. THESE are loyal to the king are duæ olivæ and two lamp stand upon to sprinkle Demesne earth stantes. And if you wish anyone voluerit these bad , fire exiet about ore their , and devorabit personal enemy their : and if you wish anyone voluerit these lædere , so it behooves he to fall.

I hate Latin there's like ten meanings to each word, and it never translates out well when you go from English to Latin to English. Most of it looks like gibberish anyways so I don't think we are missing to much.


I'm not sure If i should have spoilered those latin translations............ Well I'll do it if I have to I guess.

What we need to do i forget about "Neurotrans" and affiliated products that translate whole blocks of text based on that same engine (InterTrans works the same).

What we need, is someone with patience to go through the text using THIS website (Link ends in .exe but it should be safe, it's from Notredame University).

It knows a hell of a lot more words than InterTrans, and gives possible meanings and root words, and thus it should be possible to hack our way through the header, and latin post in this fashion.

Quick skimming the header gives me something like the following:
"And dare you witness me, also proffesy(connectin) day(specific)/divine thousands twohundre sixty, veil/"clothe with word"/cover/surround sack/bag/walelt"

This might be reinterpreted as: "And dare you witness what i proffesised in 1260, veiled in words"

This is far from correct, but i think it's closer than the machine translation. And the veiled in wors thing, seems fairly nostradamus like, meaning, interpret my words and discern the truth.

I don't have time atm to hack away at this, but it's a thought.

Also atleast one of the mails Adam sent to me, was CC'ed to Foo, so I think that's there way of hinting that we shouldn't guard our secrets too tightly... could also ofcourse just be a mistake, but i doubt it Wink

my 2 cents
