Nostradamus and other fortune tellers

[downquark1]

As a spin off of the bible code thread, let's discuss Nostradamus' predictions:

Is George Bush the third anti-christ "Mabus"?

How accurate was his 9 11 prediction?

But isn't the whole Nostradamus predictions thing a load of codswallop?

His alleged prediction of 9/11 was a hoax, written in his style and then sent around via email

I think one of them were, but some of the more vague ones are supposedly real

At five and forty degrees, the sky will burn,
Fire approaches the great new city,
Immediately a huge, scattered flame leaps up,
When they want to have verification from the Normans.

The 'two towers' nostro prediction was written way before 911, and is spooky in its similarity to those events.

BTW: IF you do a google groups 'two towers' search, there is a message in one group 2 days before 911, that meantions 'two towers bring destroyed', I wonder if it was a code message for the events?

Also The two towers could have been the two buddha statues the taliban distroyed in afghanistan.

If memory serves you have to add something like 280 to his years as well.

Sorry I'm not sure if you offer that as evidence that it was written before OR after 911?
I have a book of his predictions written in the 70's that includes the 'two towers' paragraph, so I know for sure it was writen before 911.

Cheers about the avatar tho, love the yin yang symbol but they are missing the white and black dot in the oposite colour.

Ah, it's just an example of the mis-quoting of his predictions to make it fit 911, after 911
