and:



The year 1999 seven months
From the sky will come the great King of Terror.
To resuscitate the great king of the Mongols. Before and after Mars reigns by good luck. (X.72)*

Nobody, not even the most fanatical of Nostradamus's disciples, had a clue what this passage might have meant before July 1999. However, after John F. Kennedy Jr., his wife Carolyn Bessette and her sister Lauren Bessette, were killed in a plane crash on July 18, 1999, the retroprophets shoehorned the event to the "prophecy." Here is just one example culled from the Internet:

Could the crash of John F. Kennedy Jr.'s airplane in July of 1999 fulfill the line "from the sky will come "the great King of Terror"? Could the human fear of death and bodily injury be the intended definition of "the great King of Terror"? It might be possible!*

"It might be possible"--now there is a precise bit of terminology. Other disciples were generous enough to think that Nostradamus was referring to a solar eclipse that would occur on August 11, 1999. Others feared a NASA space probe would come crashing down on earth.

upon further research I found one conflict in 1997. A civil uprest in Nigeria and in fact it is still going on.

Unless your 40 right now. . .2012 will hardly be "old" -

Ill be fucking 35. . .still young enough to be able to hold an erection for longer than 15 minutes. . .THATS the measure of how old one is. . .

As for NOSTRADAMUS - I remember watching a "special" on him during a church function, and being PERMANENTLY (for my young age) scared shitless about what he "predicted". . .

The fact that the NAZIS/HITLER used him to perfection didnt help either. . .

You need to watch more scifi, dude.

if he predicted it, assuming things would work themselves out, but someone figured it out and prevented it. you gotta think outside the box dude.

btw history channel pwns, they had several specials on nostradamus, the bible code, etc.

i agree with coleman that the bible code is 100% bull plop. you can apply that code to any lengthy piece of literature and systematically spell out all kinds of shit.

stupid:

people believe in this stuff mostly because they want to believe in it. its like what george carlin says, "an invisible man in the sky whom weve never seen is all knowing and has each and every moment of our lives pre planned out to the most minute detail" eek: he always gets me to think, thats why i love his comedy so much.

also, isnt more fun and interesting to play with these ideals? that some uber mystical guy from the middle ages could actually predict the future? humans have always been susceptible to cunning orators....good or bad, they can control a whole generation. (hitler, for example the bad....alan greenspan the good oOo: )

my thoughts on this is that i think that everyone wants to believe in it, because frankly its just way cooler. in reality, life on this planet is based on science and nothing more. imo.

Exactly what I think.....I mean, it seems like every year a new theory from some historical document or piece of folklore depicts the ending of the world. I just don't care anymore for that shit.

I mean, look at Y2K....Nothing happened...at all...

The Mayan Long Count Calendar ends December 21, 2012. What this means is a matter of opinion and conjecture, one of the mayan elders said the world doesn't end. It just starts a new period of the Earth and we become more enlightened

All the Y2K bug was a possible programming error for computers, main concern was thos on wall street and at banks that come 12:00am or 00:00 for others Jan 1st of 2000 that there clocks and calendars would read 12:00am Jan 1st 1900, which would in all circumstances create a big mess
