wait what? China is supposed to nuke a country? This is a very specific prediction...where is the evidence?

Sorry I just came in to read the last post. :D

Oh, do try to keep up at the back there. :)

To recap:

China will invade the Phillippines over a minor territorial dispute.
This will instigate WWIII.
China will mobilise 200 million troops (about 1 in 7 of its entire population).
There will be a massive nuclear exchange lasting 8 hours.
Two thirds of the human race will be wiped out.

This will happen before the London Olympics, probably on a Wednesday, otherwise PeaceCrusader will declare the prophecies he's been supporting are those of a false prophet.


So, place your bets.

Another apposite Lehrer song ...


Bah! I'll see you and raise you. The ultimate WWIII song. (Tom Lehrer, of course.) This one contains the immortal line,

And this is what he said on
His way to Ar-ma-ged-don...


One of my favorite rhymes in musical history.

Thank you, SezMe, for asking the question. I have been waiting for it but because people here at James Randi Educational Foundation are mostly, if not all, atheists. They act as if crazy (“nagbabaliw-baliwan”).

What should you do in case World War III occurs on a Wednesday soon before the 2012 Olympic Games start? First and foremost, recant your being atheists. Can you do that? Believe that there is a true God.

There are so many gods that people in this world worship but there is only one true God. The rest are false gods. How can you know the difference? The true God can prophesy and they happen. The false gods cannot. It this fair enough? So if you will worship a god, be sure that He is the true God. Search for Him.

Since WWIII is a nuclear war, many things will be burned, especially in cities. As a consequence, the whole world will be enveloped by thick smoke which smells gas and is poisonous. So there is no place in this world where you can hide without being affected by this war.

Many people outside who will breathe the smoke will most likely die. So do not open the door to let even a relative in to your house. Let them die outside. Otherwise, you too will die because smoke will come in to your place as well. Shut off the windows and the doors. Tape places where smoke may come in. Do not look out of the window. You will not see anything because of thick smoke. Worst that fog or mist.

Pray fervently to the true God. Ask for His forgiveness.

Store food good for three days and three nights. Canned goods will do. You don’t have to heat them up.

This is all for now.

Bollocks. See you after the Olympics.

Let me clarify the situation. China says it owns the South China Sea. In it are Scarborough Shoal and the oil and gas rich Spratly Islands which are within the 200 nautical miles economic zone of the Philippines as stipulated in the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS).

China, Taiwan, and Vietnam claim wholly the Spratly Islands whereas the Philippines, Malaysia, and Brunei claim only partially that are within the 200 nautical miles zone.

Standing behind the Philippines is the US in their Mutual Defense Agreement. An attack on one is an attack on the other. China, although big and mighty, cannot just annex Scarborough Shoal and the Spratly Islands. So the US has to be attacked. And this attack will happen on a Wednesday before the 2012 Olympic Games in the middle of this year. I think, on 07-04, Wednesday, in the US because it is its Independence Day and is a public holiday and is vulnerable.

As you said, this will instigate the nuclear World War III. It will be a war that does not depend on soldiers. Nuclear missiles will just be used that is why Revelation 9:18 will be fulfilled. Fire, smoke and brimstone “which issued out of their mouths” that will kill a third part of men.

There will be many men who will be killed even after the nuclear exchange that is why there will be an abundance of women to men. I do not know the ratio. Maybe ten women is to one man. But men will still not be satisfied. That only means that something more important than sex will satisfy man.

I do not know if Russia will participate in the nuclear exchange. It may not be that is why to the northwest of China where Russia is will be a threat. Russia may just dismantle its nuclear arsenal. So no more war. The world will experience a long period of peace.

Instead of the population increasing again, it will even decrease until about year 2200 when there will just be very few who will be left to restart this world. And those good people taken out of this world (Revelation 14:3 – “redeemed from the earth”) will be brought back.

A cult leader in Texas claimed the same text was going to be fulfilled September 12, 2006. When that failed to happen, he revised his prediction (in which he referred to global nuclear war that would wipe out 1/3 of the world's population as a "nuclear baby") saying that that was the date the nuclear baby was conceived, and the war would start 9 months later. When that failed to happen, he revised it again. He has made millions of dollars off his deluded followers (who are required to give him 1/3 of their income as a "tithe").

In human history, there have been literally thousands of such end-of-times prophecies. Guess how many of them came to pass? More importantly, guess how many of the people making these failed prophecies were honest enough to admit that they were flat out wrong?

So again, will you commit to honestly admitting you were wrong when your prophecy fails to happen? Will you admit it here on this forum? How about you do it on the day of the closing ceremonies of the London Olympics? No embellishments or excuses, a simple, "I was completely wrong". Anything else would be dishonest.

You do value honesty, don't you?

[ETA: FWIW, I was corresponding with a follower of the Texas cult I mentioned across the time spanning the various global nuclear war predictions. He actually promised that he would admit he was wrong if it failed to come true, and of course he failed to keep his promise. For a time he insisted that global nuclear war had indeed started--just that no one had noticed it apparently. Then he followed with his leader's latest excuses and revised prophecies of the apocalypse. Then he just quit posting--this was in the Museum of Hoaxes Forum from around 2005 onward.]

No, but did you read about the sea serpent that was recently terrorizing small craft on that river? Finally the Londoners had enough and launched a successful plan to kill it.

Then the problem became what to do with the carcass. Finally a shop owner of German descent suggested the meat be ground up and made into sausage. The entire supply sold out within hours.

It's true! I read about it in the London Times under the headline "It was the Beast of Thames, it was the wurst of Thames."

Can you point me to the post where he made that commitment? I'd really like to see the wording.

I'd rather he simply commit to saying, "I was wrong" with no further elaboration. Otherwise, what we'll get will be a bunch of post hoc changes to the prophecy, or perhaps (as with Buffalo Bill Hawkins) an admission that he was wrong on the dates only (and this was a result of the cult's prayers), which is nonsensical*.


*ETA: If you make a prophecy of global nuclear war that will wipe out 1/3 of the population by some specific date, then revise it to leave out the dates and leave open the chance that human activity can cause it not to happen, then the prophecy is merely the trivial observation that there is some possibility of a global nuclear war at some unspecified time.

I won't believe it until I see the links. :p

It's five o'clock somewhere

I have an appointment to get my hair done on Wednesday; I'd be obliged if the holy spirit could just postpone Armageddon until after then.

I have just moved house and so only have 3G internet on my phone for a couple if weeks until the phone line gets installed, but I will keep checking in to see if any of these prophecies are any closer to being fulfilled.
 
3, 6, 9, The goose drank wine.

So to the list of ignorance we can now add:

Failure to understand what nuclear weapons do.
Failure to look up how many nukes China and the US have.

I will give a hint for our failing prophet. China never quite got into MAD strategy for nukes the way the US and Russia did. Possibly the never developed the ability to build them fast enough or possibly just figured they only needed enough to make sure a few survive to make an effective deterrent.

Here are the real prophecies.

"There shall in that time be rumors of things going astray, erm, and there shall be a great confusion as to where things really are, and nobody will really know where lieth those little things with the sort of raffia-work base, that has an attachment. At that time, a friend shall lose his friend's hammer, and the young shall not know where lieth the things possessed by their fathers that their fathers put there only just the night before, about eight o'clock. "

one and one are two, two and tow are four, four and four are sixteen, sixteen and sixteen are 32, inch worm, inch worm measuring the marigolds, don't you think you should stop and see how beautiful they are.

Apparently whoever dies last, wins.
