Umm, so-and-so might do so-and-so sometimes in the future. Umm, maybe that prophecy came true, when … you know, when … you know, it happened.
Therefore god.

@nessahanalita Saint BigNeerav, of Atheist Republic, is prophesizing that at some point, you are going to be pretty much laughed out of this forum, for making unevidenced claims and for preaching.

Since the revelation of Stalin’s crimes in 1956, orthodox Marxism was at a low ebb, it was considered to be something of old, grimacing people.
The proposal to throw the nettles into proletarian discipline and make the revolution through a delicious surrender to the lower instincts, even if it required a preliminary immersion in some indecipherable pages by Theodor Adorno and Walter Benjamin, was practically irresistible to the student masses that could thus make the coincidentia oppositorum of the sophisticated with the animalistic.
Certainly, the influence of the Frankfurt School, from the 1960s onwards, was much greater on the international left than that of classical Marxism-Leninism.
@nessahanalita You keep talking. But you don’t listen. I don’t think your eyes read so good on here. You probably don’t hear so good either.

He’s spamming his beliefs, maybe trolling as well. I’m on the brink of flagging his verbiage as it’s against the forum rules.
If you listen carefully you can almost here the cracking of thin ice beneath his feet.

I am sorry, but your prediction does not meet up with religious standards. it is too precise, it actually names people.

HOLY FUCK - now video games??? You DO KNOW don’t you that this is imaginary “fun” play for grown-ups (or at least those above the age of 5). Does this make up part of your “belief” system?

@Sheldon Cracking ice, that sounds like stormtroopers blaster fire from Star Wars.
@Whitefire13 At this point, we have to come to the conclusion that he has no idea what he is talking about, since he seems to be going around in circles.
Indeed. Such people are called polyglots. Some people are able to pick up new languages quite quickly. ( Young Children are great at it)
A young woman I knew once dragged me along to a Pentacostal revival meeting. There was speaking and singing in tongues all around me. Didn’t hear anything resembling an actual language. Of course I understand believers claim to be speaking a ‘heavenly language’ known only to angels. One of the loopier unfounded religious claims of which I’m aware.
Contrary to the claims of believers, I’ve never seen any evidence of people talking in tongues are speaking a language they didn’t know. I have heard of people coming out of comas and speaking a language they were not supposed to know. Turns out there are scientific explanations, as far as I know.
I doubt it. Actually I reject your rewrite of history.
But it is interesting to note that in 1963, about the time that Bridgit predicted your Devil would be released, Pope Paul VI officially dismissed all substantiated claims against Padre Pio, which included the medical examinations that he stridently attempted to avoid since 1918, revealed his stigmata were the result of using carbolic acid to promote skin necrosis at the stigmata points, the claims of his wholly unevidenced ability to levitate, and the accusations of having sexual relations with the inner circle of his fanatic female adorers and amongst others, of his pilfering from the funds collected for the construction of a hospital in his name. Permitting the old charlatan to avoid any closer examination of those charges against him was a devil of a thing to do.
But beyond that, your synopsis of the Cold War was the funniest thing I have read since Old Man’s last New Age rant and twice as meaningless. You do realise the plot line about the Russian mole Pegasus was only a fictional plot device for a computer game?
As always I am happy that some people find comfort in whatever fanciful perception of life and world history that grants them imagined reassurance of their world views, I just hate that they then try to impose those jaundiced views on others. You are gravely mistaken in believing you have any sort of monopoly on truth or knowledge. You waste your time here, and ours, with baseless opinion and mythologies. I can’t even bring myself to support your personal crusade by conferring any credence or dignity through argument or objection. I will charitablly ignore them instead.

You are joking of course?
I don’t believe in fortune telling of any kind. Two reasons (1) being able to predict future abrogates free will. (that includes god having such knowledge (2) I have never yet found one case where the future was predicted accurately and specifically. EG: “At 10 am Friday, Fred Manglewurtzle, his wife and eleven children will be killed when a Boeing 727 falls onto their trailer in Possum Creek Arkansas”
Fortune telling was practiced centuries before organised religion. The Abrahamic faiths dismiss fortune telling as superstition, but accept it if it’s their kind of fortune telling: Eg the magi following a star, or say from an interpretation of scripture. These days, sects such as JW’s keep finding new dates for the end of days in Revelations especially. That they don’t come true, is irrelevant, they’re still trying to predict the future. It’s pure woo and always has been.

You’d have to hope so, sadly I fear not.
Strangely, prophecies made after the event have high level of accuracy.
Die hard dickheads are ferocious when extrapolating prophecies to make them more contemporary, or at least more accurate in retrospect .
Two examples which come to mind are Michel De Nostradame and his nonsense quatrains… For Astrology the claim that astrologer William Lilly predicted the great fire of London in 1666. He didn’t. One need only read his general predictions for that years.
I’m confident I can come up with appropriate woo to reply to most religious claims.
One of my favourite non religious scams is “The Turk” a chess playing automaton.

Read today: 4 year old yells “Yipee Ki Ay!!!” Father automatically finishes the phrase. Wife returns home “There’s good news and there’s not so good news. Timmy learned a new word today–” .
Jonathan Cahn prophesied that 19 years after 2001, some catastrophe would occur and he did so based entirely on biblical history.
Woooo! Holy Shit! Damn! Fuck! That convinces me! Where in the fuck do I send my money???
That’s not prophesy ffs, that’s simply stating the obvious, using a vague assumption.
I don’t believe you. Kindly post your evidence. If true, you will earn some credibility(you have none at present)
Second point; if true, such an event is not empirical evidence for the existence of a god. I’m just curious.
It becomes prophecy if it’s specific. I’ll give you odds of 10:1 on that it is not.***
This type of biblical prophecy is fortune telling and woo. Nor is it the proper meaning of prophecy, or by inference, prophets****
***I refer to a previous post where I gave an example of what I mean by specific. Viz; " Today, Fred Manglewurtzle, his wife and 11 children were killed when a Boeing 747 landed on their trailer in Possum creek Arkansas"
If a natural disaster. Start with date (Hebrew or Gregorian), then the place, naming the easily identified geographic location, then the nature of the catastrophe including approx how many people will die.

****my understanding is that a prophet is one who speaks for god, a messenger. The Muslim Shahada is smore accurate than the way the term has come to be used in Christianity:
“I bear witness that none deserves worship except God, and I bear witness that Muhammad is the messenger of God.”
A prophet may also work miracles and tell the future, but those things are secondary that to speaking for god
