Founded at beginning of 3rd century BC, Library of Alexandria was largest in world at that time. It was burned during Julius Caesar's invasion of Alexandria (47–48 BC). According to Roman Philosopher and Author, Aulus Gellius (123–169) "sack" of Alexandria resulted in destruction of 700,000 scrolls; pitiful few that survived only whet our regrets over this tragic loss. Oddly, same fate nearly befell The Kolbrin.

Some theorize that Egyptian scrolls in The Kolbrin were taken as booty during 11th century Crusade and secreted away by Saxon monks at Glastonbury Abbey in England for safekeeping. However, much of The Kolbrin was lost when arsonists set fire to Glastonbury Abbey in 1184. Luckily, some of original manuscripts were written on thin sheets of bronze in an effort to protect them from destruction. These bronze sheets were kept in copper-clad boxes and known as The Bronzebook of Britain. They were later combined with another collection, called The Coelbook, to become The Kolbrin.

WHY THE KOLBRIN IS URGENTLY RELEVANT TO MODERN TIMES

Some of driving principles of The Kolbrin were recently echoed in last-rites declaration of Pope John Paul II on April 2, 2005. "The unforgivable sins this earth must confront and overcome are Nationalism, capitalism, and hoarding. The idea of every nation should be forgot, price should be struck from commons and princes should be seen for devils they are. The sins include our church, secret societies and other religions which make of spirit of God a divide."

SHARE THE KOLBRIN WITH OTHERS TODAY

The need to study The Kolbrin is urgent, because it warns us of a long period object called “The Destroyer” that is soon to return. Despite lack of present day scientific verbiage, accounts contained in The Kolbrin of last flyby event are factually prescient and help explain current perturbations in our solar system. More importantly, The Kolbrin offers us new hope by telling us how humanity survived and evolved beyond last flyby of “The Destroyer.”

It should further be noted that nobiliary hierarchy is usually regarded as logarithmic. The step between noble and Baron is often regarded as greater than that between Baron and Count, etc. I am not competent to judge if this is also case with catholic hierarchy of Church, but it will be evident that for a number of reasons it is only possibly to make approximations when trying to bring rank systems above in harmony with each other.

Popes have granted a number of nobiliary titles to deserving subjects during course of centuries. According to Lateran Pacts of 1929, in Concordat Art 42, "Italy shall admit recognition of titles of nobility conferred by Supreme Pontiff, even after 1870, and of those that shall be conferred in future". In 1947 Constitution of Italian Republic abolished use of nobiliary titles, in sense that they are place outside legal system of Republic (see excellent article by Italian lawyer Gherardo Guelfi Camaiani at http://www.dirittonobiliare.com/titoli.html).

Here in Sweden we have example of margravely family Lagergren, where Claes Lagergren was granted title of Marquis in year 1889 by Pope Leo XIII.
