I'm not sure how many times I can explain this. There will be no "falling into the ocean" to claim there will shows a fundamental misunderstanding of plate tectonics.

What about people who really do have conversations with God? I am only referring to those that seem to take dictation from God, such as the author of these prophesies, then present the conversation as a universally true statement from God.

Most of the religious world believes there have been people who have taken dictation from God and that it is universally true. Moses, Elijah, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Jesus, John the Revelator, Mohammed, Joseph Smith, etc.

I am quite certain that this fellow did not take divine dictation.

Are you ever going to get tired of posting crap that constantly gets disproved? Or if it isn't disproved it is because it is such a general or obvious statement that a 4 year old with a massive head wound could predict?

Actually , the first of those last couple of links is a bit waflling. It appears to be prognisticating by calculations based on numbers etc which I think is superstition. I posted it because it IS a prediction though I would personally say it is a false one.
The second one has an out clause - 17th March but it may still change blah blah blah meaning it quite likely won't.
This is a predictions thread so I plan to keep posting them even if just as examples of how bad predictions can be. Posting them doesn't mean I agree with them.

You might want to note that when you post them, otherwise people assume you do.

How does the fact that he is wrong make him different from the rest of the prognosticators that you have told us about?

Some have the general substance correct but have been misguided about the date. This guy has a proven track record of 100% failure.

If they are getting messages from God then why are they misguided? Or to put it another way, if the guidance is not accurate why should we think that any of the guidance is from God?

That's not vague at all!
Oh, no, wait, it's amazingly vague.
