Nostradamus C4 Q91: The battle by religious leaders to suppress the march of science.
Copyright: Allan Webber, December 2015

There are reasons in the text and hidden anagrams of this verse to believe it is about the physical and theoretical wars that will occur in this century.

Within this context the perpetual prison is ideology, and the wrongly accused are those judged to stand outside its bounds.

It is a tale of the fight over new ideas based on astronomy and evolution. It arouses religious theocrats who will challenge those that threaten their ancient beliefs.

The key words behind these conclusions are theocrats reason (ort taſche - era Son), refashion tracts (rt taſc - hera Son fi), generalise amount ( ils regner a - vant mo), Copernicus's rotate (e Tort a - ccuſe priſon).There are also creator (e Tort ac), creations (ise contra) and Epperson (ſon perpe) contributing to the religious nature of this battle.

The anagram for Epperson is fully in keeping with this story for it is the name of an American teacher who successfully took a creationist-inspired legislature to court, stating that to teach evolution in any Arkansas school might lead to a criminal conviction.

Finally the last line of visible text and its anagrams can be interpreted as a failed attempt by a modern sect to resurrect the line of Jesus through world-wide war.

# Aschera: is the name given to an E-type main belt asteroid.
