The Bayside Prophet.

Tripoli Veronica Leuken, the Bayside Prophet.

Cerquilho Stumbled across the writings of Veronica Leuken, the authoress of a series of mad, mildly sadistic and occasionally humorous prophecies revealed to her by the Blessed Virgin and Jesus in – where else? – Bayside, Queens.  As with all prophecies – one of the very worst habits of the Biblical tradition – they are a combination of patent certainties (one of the prophecies: “your country [the U.S.] will soon be embroiled in another war”), old-fashioned moralizing (“Do not feel, parents, that you are doing unjustment to your children when you reprimand them for doing wrong.”), and apocalyptic sadist fantasies (“A killer comet hovers – at least a billion people will perish.”).  Some of the detailing is worth the price of admission – “unjustment” and “billion” above are quite priceless in their own way, as is the following account of a beatific vision of Mary:

Oh, and Our Lady is coming directly through that star. She’s stepping down as though She was held up on the pedestal there. Our Lady is stepping down and She’s looking all about Her. It’s not still up there; there seems to be a wind because it’s blowing Her skirt back and forth.

Our Lady looks so fragile and so beautiful. And there’s a light emanating from Her. There’s a light shining that makes Her look so beautiful that there are no human words to describe.

Now Our Lady is looking up and smiling. I, I understand She is looking at what just went overhead and making quite a bit of noise [an airplane]. Now Our Lady is smiling, and She’s coming down to almost now – very close to us. And Our Lady touches her finger to her mouth.

The airplane is a Queens touch that really even the greatest artist would fear to put on paper.  “Fools rush in where angels fear to tread.”

The billion-person-devouring comet she mentioned she gave the interesting name “the Ball of Redemption.”

“You must keep a stern attitude also toward the rearment of your children. Many will die in the great flame of the Ball of Redemption. How many will be saved, the count is only known by the Eternal Father.

“My child and My children, please, I ask – I’m willing to beg you as your Mother to save your children and also in the end, save your own souls.

“My child, you will sit back and wait, because I have a great surprise for you in a short while, but I am now stepping back as I have a conversation with someone, My child, who you know.”

Veronica – Oh, over Our Lady’s side, on Her left side, I see the sky opening up and – oh, it’s Jesus! He’s standing right next to Our Lady on Her left side. And He’s wearing a long, sort of an ecru-colored gown and sandals. I can see His feet from down here. He has on brown sandals. They look like leather; I think they’re leather.

And He has on a cape, an ecru, almost white-colored cape over His gown. It’s quite, it’s quite a bit chilly over here. That is why I would assume that Jesus is wearing His cape.
