That is a pretty big statement. So you're saying that your belief in this god will be shattered is there is no WWIII started before the 2012 Olympic games. So - if we plan ahead here, what does this look like to you? Will you seek out another 'prophet'?

For me - if your prediction is right, then no, I wouldn't acknowledge this god as a true god - presumably I'll be busy trying to figure out how to ride out WWIII. But I'm not stockpiling tins of beans yet.

Are you, Agatha, not fortunate that I am talking to you and informing you of what is to happen very, very soon?

3 lions on the shirt.

Fortunate? Why? I'm not going to get a refund on my tickets as I think your prediction is nonsense, and if WWIII starts in just over six weeks I'm hardly going to be able to find a safe country at such short notice. That's sort of the point of a world war.

I do not give a tinker's damn what your mythical zombie is reported to have said, preaching just goes flying over my head. If you have something important to say, tell it to us in your own words and try to avoid reference to imaginary entities.

Well, at least it will be painless. The thing about threatening me, even indirectly, with death is that it means very little to me, I'm not scared of dying. I hope it will be a long time before it happens as there are things I want to do, but I'm as near certain as I can be that there is no afterlife. So what is there to be scared of - why do you think my views would be altered if I believed your prophecies?

Here is what a psychic said in about 1980 of what will happen in 2012: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZAIQJmE75vg&feature=related titled “Psychic's predictions for 2012 -- From 30 years ago. ******* scary! - English subtitles”. The psychic said that New York AND Los Angeles will be attacked a la Pearl Harbor. I don’t think it is 9/11 which happened in New York though. The psychic said New York AND Los Angeles.

Is this another prediction? LA and NY will be attacked "a la Pearl Harbour" in 2012?

Can I ask what "pushed through" means, please, peace crusader? You keep referring to the games as being pushed through, which seems odd, even if English isn't your first language.

Surely the word is "staged" or "organised" or "held" - given that the UK has been planning and preparing for these games since at least 2005 when they won the bid - and before that in working on the bid itself.

The phrase "pushed through" suggests something last minute and rushed, and I'm not sure why?


(and I'm not even sure why that's the bit that's bothering me )

20120614.2350

Sorry, IronPup, for my use of “pushed through”. That is my translation of what the Holy Spirit said, “hindi matutuloy”. Like you said, “staged” or “held”. So according to the Holy Spirit, the 2012 Olympic Games in London will not be staged or will not be held. It will be cancelled. Why cancelled? Because something will happen before 2012-07-27. It will be beyond the control of LOCOG.

I am a little sceptical about the suggestion that China is mobilising a force of 200,000,000 to start World War III. The logistics of acquiring and distributing materiel for a force of this size would present enormous challenges and yet the Chinese economy is continuing to produce the usual quantities of goods for internal consumption and export as well.

Merely moving that number of people to the designated location for their invasion would be a daunting exercise and would doubtless take many months and be very visible by satellites. This means that if the invasion is under way then the leaders of the United States, Russia, Great Britain, France and other countries are already aware of what is happening and yet they seem to be making no contingency preparations.

No, I just don’t “believe what any crackpot ‘psychic’ predicts". I can say is that what the psychic said reinforce what the Holy Spirit said. I do not know or remember how and where I got that link.

Any chance of you sharing a source for this assertion with us?

Perhaps, more to the point, you might want to make sure that the GDP figures his Holy Spookiness is working with aren't as wildly innacurate as the nonsense you came up with for China's military strength or there's going to be a lot of explaining to do in Beijing when it turns out the country has been bankrupted for the sake of $2.57, two goats and 500 pairs of second-hand shoes.

30,000 lbs of bananas.
Well, when the US Navy used to pull into Subic Bay, the hookers in Olongapo and Subic City used to get quite a windfall. Maybe they invested the money. They might have $253.24 in cash, 5 goats and a Shemp, and a whole Imelda Marcos of shoes by now.

[Tormac]

Ok, ok, ok. I think that there is one bit of information that is missing when discussing this.
There will be an army of 200,000,000 soldiers that will start a terrible war of conquest in the Philippines in July. The thing that all of us are missing is that this will not be an army from Red China, but an army of Red Ants, invading the nations of the Black Ants in a terrific battle of biblical proportions. My cat the Purrfect Prophet El Gato Gaucho Groucho has explained this to me.
The Purrfect Prophet El Gato Gaucho Groucho explained that only dumb human-centric deities would get this obvious prophesy wrong, but if we would listen to the one true God, Ceiling Cat, we will avoid the horrors of Basement Cat's scratching post of doom.
El Gato Gaucho Groucho has offered this miracle as proof of his prophecy. He has started fetching his cat toy. Obviously, when cats have taken on the powers of their nemesis, the dog, it is undeniable evidence of the power of Ceiling Cat. If you guys would like I can post a video clip of my cat fetching after I get home from work and finish mowing the grass.
El Gato Gaucho Groucho challenges any human prophet to a duel of miracles. He says that if any human prophet can sneak up on a wild bird and catch it with your paws, (thus taking on the power of house cats), he might, grudgingly, concede that maybe your god is (almost) as powerful as Ceiling Cat, and equal his miracle of the Purrfect Prophet fetching his cat toy. Until then though, in the name of Ceiling Cat, he declares you false prophets, and warns that your soul will be bound to the eternal scratching post of doom with extra itchy twine.

Let's see... a Chinese army 200 million strong will invade the Philippines, a country with an area of about 300,000 square kilometers. You know what that means.

That's right. 666 Chinese per square kilometer.

15 men on a dead man's chest

How was the Holy Spirit measuring "richest"? I cannot find any measure by which the Philippines could be said to be the richest in terms of money or purchasing power. I did find a couple of pages stating that it is "one of the richest in biodiversity", though not the richest (Madagascar and Indonesia are richer in biodiversity to name just two).

Perhaps you could ask the Holy Spirit what he/she is talking about?

36DD

Added to the 308 persons per sq kilometre the Philippines already has, that makes for a very crowded place - almost as crowded as Bangladesh. Not so crowded as Singapore, though, with 7301 people per sq kilometre.

Or, because it's not true, it may not.

Did you know also that the Chinese will destroy Metro Manila?

Oh, wicked, bad, naughty, evil Chinese! Oh, they are a naughty people, and they must pay the penalty -- and here we have but one punishment for destroying Metro Manila. You must tie them down on a bed and spank them!

Quote:

Quite sad but this is what the Holy Spirit revealed to us.

It might be sad if your holy spirit wasn't clearly nuts.

Quote:

Maybe when they come in contact with Chinese Christians in the Philippines and elsewhere who will tell them that there is God, when they go back to China, they may say that there really is a god.

How's that going in Tibet?

No. Not even slightly. If a false god had the power of prophecy, isn't that likely to be exactly what he would claim in order to try to convince you that he's the true god? As I said before, you could easily be being suckered by evil spirits here (assuming I grant the hypothesis of the existence of true/false gods and evil spirits and whatnot, which I'm doing for the sake of argument).

If your criteria for the "one true god" is accurate prophecy, I suggest you may be looking at the wrong religion, and some comparitive religion studies might do you good. The Greeks had ambivalent and ambiguous prophets, but the Norse/Germanic tribes seemed to have some pretty decent ones. Perhaps you should consider worshipping Odin.

Or you could accept that true prophecying is not, nor ever has been, a reliable indication of one-true-godness.
