Did Nostradomus Predict The Future?

Why? Why would his visions of the future be based on the USA. little visions of the rest of the world but we'll never know if he actually knew what was going to happen. i caught that specail in may and it made me think. but i dont think his prophicies are really true to what we think they mean. thats why we interpret and then think of what happes but until we can crack the space time continum and havee a time machine then we can find out what really happened. |
Easy!!! 1) Political propaganda
2) It's always good to keep people scared, they don't ask questions and they buy
SOMETHING ELSE!!! Anybody noticed how terrorism came back RIGHT BEFORE elections??? What are they gonna do now? Change the votes of Alaska? "It was too cold and they couldn't see the paper!"

Nostradamus was full of sh*t. They twist what he said to MAKE it fit what has happened. If you read his quatrains (or whatever they are) you will see that only some predictions are even remotely close to actual events. He gave names that you need to rearrange and add letters too and it all seems like these 'experts/believers' are stretching to prove something that is very far-fetched.
(Yay my 1st post since the upgrade, I kept going to mkonline.com and the "we'll be back soon, look at this ed boon thingy' page kept coming up. I thought mko was fuc*ed but, then today I had the ingenious idea of typing mk5.org and whoa! i feel like an idiot...)

I agree with krsx, Nostradomus didn't predict shit. I dont believe in any of that bs. If Nostradomus was alive today he wouldnt even be able to predict me coming to kick his ass then id be like pwned.

Thanks MKS for clearin that up, I hateeeee when ppl say he predicted 9/11 and Y2K. He did not.
I've really kept from posting here cause I have a few books, and I follow his work. I didn't wanna come in here and try to sound like I know it all.
However, in the books I have, he has been pretty accurate...Granted some ppl have a good argument in saying he was so vague he had to be accurate, but none the less he has predicted place, times, etc..
I will tell you ONE thing he said about the 'end'...I'll basically break it down for you, as interperted by experts:
The end of us
Russia and the United States will come together to stop a common enemy. One of these two countries will then turn on the other country, and this will start WW3. This will be the last war.
After the war, the few who are left will start over. A new religion will be founded, and peace will reign all over for many many decades to come.
Take that for what you will, it's in every book on him I have. 9/11, Y2K and other bullshit ppl make up is not.
DrF he did give NYC basic polar co-ordinates and he did say a man in a turban would launch missles, the first few we would shoot down, but the last one would hit. Perhaps he did mean planes, but who knows.

It's up to intepretation.
Some people will blindly believe that he predicted the future. I am a science student and therefore I cannot go by such beliefs. What I do know for a fact is that he wrote very vague predictions which can be associated, by interpretation, to events that have ocurred during history. I do not believe in "predicting the future" or similar things so my opinion is biased - as is everybody else's - but what really would be best was that you somehow managed to get hold of Nostradamus' writings and interpret them yourself. If you want to believe he predicted the future then it's fine by me (everybody's entitled to his/her opinion, as silly as it may seem to me), but it's only a matter of interpretation.

Did Nostradomus Predict the Future? NO the fact is that of All predictions only about 5% came true and with all the ones he did that very likely that they would come true because they way there wrighted they are very board and that why we can appile them to meny thing after they have happen. And Pluse all the one we have said have come true we could not read his word and say this will happen it is only unateal after it was wrigted that we were abbale to apaly the predictions.

My Grandmother said something about his family passing away and that made him depressed.And all he would think about were devasting things that might happen in the world.If these so called experts are telling the truth I say there wrong.Since you say the Y2K and 9/11 are fake predictions I guess some of his predictions never came true.
As for that WW3 I think thats the war in Iraq.Things in Iraq are more under control than it was in 2001.So I say his prediction on this came half true.

We can't just sit there and let them boss us around.The News makes it look like the bombings are always happening now.Truth is that stuff was going on waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay before Bush came in office.Even way before Clinton was in office.I still say they should just drop some bomb over in Iraq and bomb everything.I don't think they can do that though it would be nice but I think of the innocent people.The innocent people do not deserve the hell that those messed up people over there give them.There are more idiots over there than good.
Maybe soon this will all be over with.I don't want to see the "Bring the troops home" or that peaceful route.I like the "Bring the terriosts in body bags"way.Or the "Shot the hell up"way.And in the words of Toby Kieth "We'll put a boot in your ass because it's the American Way".LOL

Ya most of Nostradomus's predictions were eaither stuff that was happening in his own time, or mind less bannter. And the supposed 9/11 quatraine is bullshit because for one it was said to be written at a date when Nostradomus had been dead for like 20 years or sumtin like that.All bullshit if u ask me.

well, it seems like you guys failed to realize something. he predicted hitlers name...almost. he said hisler. so, if he can get that close for a name, why would you think the prediction about the end of the world in 1999 is wrong? what if the date was just a little off? i mean, 5 years is not a long time considering he made the prediction centuries ago. i mean hell, even if the end of the world is in 100 years, he made a damn good prediction.
