Nostradamus

[starnbar]

'' A Plague shall fall upon the world. After, a feeble man shall rule the Western World with a jezebel. The people will be damaged and subjugated by a fool ruler. The great eagle shall suffer and fall."

[salpal48]

the future lies in the past

[Triggerfinger]

These words weren't ever written by Nostradamus.

Yes they were in a quotation they mirror what was written in Ezekiel 5:12

[Ickisrulz]

The quote is yet another internet hoax/lie. Easily checked, I might add.

[DougGuy]

It all sounds plausible until you get to the great eagle part, since the great eagle inhabited a land that was yet unknown to the world that Nostradamus lived in. JS....

[salpal48]

all BS

[sparky45]

It fits and I like it. WHAT'S THE TRUTH ANYMORE???

[powwowell]

All of Nostradamus's quotes can be MADE to fit.

Does anybody else find it interesting that for all of the ages of human history, folks have fretted over the end of the world, while they themselves have at best a couple handfuls of decades?

Personal encounters with cancer, clogged arteries, an out-of-control bus, a knife from a tweaker looking for the path to his next fix, or just slow physical and/or mental decline - I find these far more relevant concerns than what someone long dead thought might eventually happen at the intersection of Sand and Rocks. Yes, a humongous asteroid wiped out most life on earth 65 million years ago - - and we have folks obsessed over the possibility that such a thing might happen again next Tuesday. Seems to me like dwelling on some great potential catastrophe is just borrowing trouble.

I just find it interesting.

Well, I have no regard for the writings of ol' Nostra myself but future predictions really are the stock in trade of prophets. Prophets usually don't deal with past or present events but what will be.

I have no idea who wrote that supposed prophecy but Biden and Kackles sure fit the profile.

[Arkansas Paul]

Nostradamus died in 1566.
How many illnesses have befallen man since then? How many leaders have been in power that half the people hated?
A lot and a lot.

You can make this crap fit anything you want it to fit.

It works the same was as the daily horoscope.

[Good Cheer]

Through the ages there are always seers, channelers, prophets and people communing with entities of various stripe.
They aren't all charlatans and they aren't all quackadoodles. Some gained acceptance and social prominence. Some got literally or figuratively burned at the stake. Some created new religions, typically cults no matter the number of adherents.
A fine example is a fellow that could easily be called one of the western world's first documented alien contactees, in the last millennium at any rate, a successful gentleman of his day and scientist, theologian, inventor and author Emanuel Swedenborg (1688-1772). The guy was something else, a major force in the formation of our modern world.

I see Joy and Grief in your life. That will be $50.00 please.

[dannyd]

That's western Europe because the United State's is not in the Bible so to say.

[elmacgyver0]

It is all BS.

That doesn't mean it won't happen.

[Good Cheer]

How could the end times super power of super powers not be mentioned in prophetic scripture?

Swedenborg's list of devotees definitely are a rather interesting group of individuals, beyond a doubt.

Yes sir they are.

Coming forward in time to Madame Blavatsky and who knows who all else today, there's always some contactees being fed the messages for the spiritual con game. Some become very influential. Doesn't take much bait to get people to bite so some contactees net quite a large mystery school.

I know, bad pun, but the sun's not up and I need more coffee.
