    This is more or less my opinion of the Nostradamus prophecies too. They are so terribly vague that they can be made to fit many situations, and you would only know that they had come true in retrospect.

    The world was supposed to end many times in the seventies and nineties according to the interpreters of Nostradamus, but so far so good!

    Anyone can say there will be an earthquake on such and such a day and chances are somewhere on the globe there will be one. Same with a tornado, flood, mudslide, plane crash. These things happen every day. Thousands of people die each year in car accidents, boating accidents, motorcycle etc. Different groups have predicted the end of the world for thousands of years and yet here we still are AND what's more we have the same problems we had one thousand, two thousand or six thousand years ago. Money, in-laws, children, cancer, common cold, flu, jealousy, greed, hunger, hate, lust, wanting power or control over others. Not much has changed really except now we live in homes instead of caves, we still eat meat, worry about our kids, die to young, love, hate, cry, and laugh and pray. We still kill over land, over our respected God or Gods, cheat on our husbands and wives, beat our children. Mankind can fly to the moon but as for morals, kindness, common goodness,forgivness, love, helping others we are NO better then we were 50 or 100 years ago or even 400 years ago. Sad sad sad.

    My knock on prophecy is that it's basically useless. You always hear after the fact. We'll know in just under 4 years if this is a potentially "forewarned is forearmed" situation. There does seem to be a disproportionate amount of trouble, which, IMO, has one root cause: "too many people, not enough planet", as the late great Robert Heinlein wrote.

    Is it the truth! I believe "passing out birth control with the communion wafers" would go a long way to easing the troubles that afflict us!

    This is a very shocking comment and I agree 100%.
