Nostradamus was sought out by royalty of his day for his predictions. Some of his most intriguing predictions were not in book form. One story has him at a banquent where the host tries to trick him. The host tells him he has a white pig and a black pig. He is asked to choose which one will be served. Upon knowing his answer- the black pig, the host instructs the cook to prepare the white pig. During the meal the host asks again which pig was chosen. Again he replied the black pig. Then the host brings in the chef to tell him which pig was cooked. The cook says the white pig fell from the table and was devoured by dogs and that the black pig was served.  His earliest known prediction was religious. In his youth he saw a young Fransican friar and paid homage by kneeling and kissing his robe. Asked why he was paying such duty to a lowly friar he responded, "He must kiss the robes of his holiness the Pope." Many years after Nostradamus's death, the young friar became Pope Sixtus V. <ref>The Man Who Saw Tomorrow, 1981 documentary</ref> It is said that he predicted his own death and the day his tomb would be violated, May 1791.

Many events four hundreds years later can be attributed to Nostradamus predictions, such as the rise of [[Napoleon]] and [[Hitler]]. His writings would be used as propaganda by the [[Nazi]]'s. Goebells used the quatrains showing the defeat of the French in [[World War II]]. His 21st century visions include the rise of the third anti-Christ, from the Kingdom of Mohammed with worldwide death and destruction. After his defeat, a universal peace of 1000 years. In a letter to his son, he would write that the end of the world would takes place in 3797.
