Actually, I was in Alaska - noted for volcanoes and earthquakes - on June 19th, and maybe Rusty was right. Thtat day was terrible! Scorching fluids belching forth from below. Things shaking violently underfoot. The ocean rising to cover the earth.
Well, there was hot water from the tap when I shaved, my sister's Labrador scratching himself and wagging his tail, and the tide coming in. So maybe this prophecy thing is just a matter of perspective.

I agree. This was different sources from the prohpetess but I've recently had enough of the prophecy "smack" (as it were) and I'm trying to aviod going down this road again.

Currently there are contradictory prophecies on the net.
A couple I've read say that the time is now and it's all about to happen.
Another I've read says it's still 3 to 4 years away.
I've NEVER known the date-namers to be right but it's taken several months of mstakes for me to finally wake up to this.

Currently there are contradictory prophecies on the net. Hmm, this brings up an interesting point that I hadn't quite thought of before. Back in the day, when "prophets" disseminated their "prophesies" directly to a limited number of people, those on the receiving end were less likely to hear other, conflicting "prophesies." Now, with dozens (hundreds? thousands?) of self-proclaimed prophets projecting their, err, "wisdom" onto the internet, it's easier to see the "stab in the dark" nature of the whole racket. Then again, this presumes a predisposition to look at prophesy with any sort of critical eye, as opposed to simply disregarding those which contradict one's favored "prophet" as false or misleading (a defense which is kinda ironic, in and of itself.) Vereh goo, grasshoppah!
