So they are indistinguishable from random associations drawn between unrelated events.
Therein lies the problem. If you read Randi's book, "The Mask of Nostradamus", you will understand why he would never take this seriously.

Words of wisdom from a funny (and bitter) man to ponder over:
Religion easily has the greatest bull**** story ever told. Think about it, religion has actually convinced people that there's an INVISIBLE MAN...LIVING IN THE SKY...who watches every thing you do, every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a list of ten special things that he does not want you to do. And if you do any of these ten things, he has a special place full of fire and smoke and burning and torture and anguish where he will send to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and cry for ever and ever 'til the end of time...but he loves you. [George Carlin, from "You Are All Diseased"]
A man came up to me on the street and said I used to be messed up out of my mind on drugs but now I'm messed up out of my mind on Jeeesus Chriiist. [George Carlin]
And finally, I've always drawn a great deal of moral comfort from Humpty Dumpty. The part I like the best? "All the king's horses and all the king's men couldn't put Humpty Dumpty back together again." That's because there is no Humpty Dumpty, and there is no God. None, not one, no God, never was. In fact, I'm gonna put it this way.
If there is a God, may he strike THIS AUDIENCE dead!
See? Nothing happened. Nothing happened? Everybody's okay?
All right, tell you what, I'll raise the stakes a little bit.
If there is a God, may he strike ME dead.
See? Nothing happened, oh, wait, I've got a little cramp in my leg.
And my balls hurt. Plus, I'm blind!
I'm blind, oh, now I'm okay again, must have been Joe Pesci, huh?
God Bless Joe Pesci. Thank you all very much. Joe Bless You! -George Carlin (You Are All Diseased)

Why do religious fruitcakes use CAPITALS! and exclamations at EVERY OPPORTUNITY! Is the Bible written that way, or is it their own humble attempt to sound like Charlton Heston in text form? I think the public should be told.
What you are saying that when something has happened, you can always retro-fit some scripture so that it seems to fit! That is worthless, and certainly not paranormal. Anybody can do that with any book.

Dear fruit loop,
In gazing carefully into my bowl of Alpha-bits this morning, the details of every significant event of the next millenia was revealed unto me by the great spirit - Post Cereals -. Of course, because the milk in the bowl ordered me not to reveal them, I cannot mention any of the events until long after they happen. However, it is clear that my claim outweighs yours since I do not require the use of random bold letters and colours to make my claim.
Woe unto the unbelievers of Post!
Woe unto the unbelievers of the Toronto Maple Leafs!
Whoa! I just got another hindsight prophecy....Bush is a bonehead! (actually I got this one before he was elected, so it is a real prophecy).

Daniel 9
25 Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.
26 And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.
Micah 5
2 But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.
Isaiah 7 : 14
Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
Hosea 11 : 1
When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt.

9 Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.
Psalm 22 : 16
For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet.

Zechariah 12:10
And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn.
Psalm 34:20
He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken.

He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.
Psalm 41
9 Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread, hath lifted up his heel against me.

8 He trusted on the LORD that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.
Psalm 22
18 They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.

The above Prophecies Written between (very approx) 1000 BC and 500 BC
are just a small sampling of The Grand Plan of The Holy Scriptures...
The Coming, Birth, Style, Location, Life, Betrayal, Crucifixion, Burial and Glorious Resurrection and Ascension of The Lord and Saviour JESUS CHRIST.
All other Prophecies are inferior to those above.
He will Come Again....
GET READY...
You WILL Meet Him - either this life or the next...
What will you say when you are questioned about this little antichrist episode
in some of the postings herein?
Careful now.....
I AM TELLING YOU THE GOSPEL TRUTH...
The Lamb that was Slain IS The Great Judge in Heaven...
Ask yourselves - WHAT DO I DESERVE?
Eternal Life or Eternal Damnation...
Your True Answer to this question WILL Decide your fate....
The Holy Spirit KNOWS Everything about each and every one of us..
Do you deserve PARADISE ???
Be honest - THIS IS NO JOKE....SERIOUSLY....

This has nothing to do with the Challenge.

Here is one of my Biblical Interpretations so I can win the JREF Prize Money.
When 'Lot' escaped Sodom, his wife died but his daughters lived.
Later, the women were so forlorn about the lack of men to date (because they were all killed) that they got their daddy 'Lot' drunk and then had sex with him.
This story is an obvious prediction of the Jerry Springer Show, therefore I will thank the JREF staff to please deposit the money into this garbage bag I brought along.

In other words: You got caught with your pants down and now you are trying to back pedal.
No. I love my eyes to much. But giving the "mellowing" of your posting style, I would say that someone got lucky last night.
That does not help your claim. It's just
and is called past diction.Or reengineering things to suit your purposes. Doesn't make it true thouh.
Not paranormal. Still the wrong pantheon.
Prove that any of the mentioned events took place.
Those are not prophecies.
Ehhh...Still don't do blowjobs on foreigners of neither deity nor human origins.
Evidence? Also wrong pantheon and wrong religion. Besides: YOU could be wrong. After all, the bible DOES warn from false prophets, doesn't it?
Have a laugh and a half about those "Warped out X-tians".
Evidence?
Again with the sheep reference. Are you sure your not the deviant here?
A good footrub. Well right now anyway. Later tonight....No, that would scare some of the kiddies.
My religion doesn't do the "damnation" thing. That's only for x-tians. Rabid ones like you that is.
I never lie about these things. And forcing someone to do a BJ is rape so don't think that "NO" doesn't mean "NO". Maybee you didn't get lucky last night after all......And I had such hopes for you.
So your deity of choice is a pervert. Not exactly an inciter to change religions.
I live it every night.....
Whom were joking?
Quiet welcome.

Didn't see this one untill now.
And I actually think you are right.
Ritual magic puts big stock in things like that. Hey, whadoyaknow: Elijah is a witch/mage/wizard!
Welcome to the club brother elijah, now tell me, how do you get around that pesky "thou shall not suffer a witch to live"-thing that you x-tians have?

This thread should probably be moved- most likely to the "Religion and Philosophy" thread- since this Elijah fellow is DEFINITELY not going to make one reasonable comment about the challenge, particularly since he doesn't understand the difference between the words "rejected" and "accepted."

I second that.
