There is a major problem with predictions of future events -- you are either right or wrong.
If it's a dire prediction -- like so many of those made about Climate Change -- if you are wrong things continue as usual and you're an idiot. This means the subject of your prediction can be denied.. even if there is a real issue involved.
Climate Change is a good thing -- if you aren't in the areas that will be affected by increased storms or floods. In Maine, Climate Change means the usual 6-foot snow storms are reduced to a quarter of an inch. It also means the normally seasonal low temperatures are higher than the historic standard and that means multiple savings -- no plowing of the driveway and lower heating bills.
I've played with predictions ... in multiple books over the past fifty years. Here are a few recent books available on AMAZON:
ISRAEL SHALL BE FREE From the River to the Sea
Biblical Prophecy: Are we in the Revelation Era.
THE ALPHA QUESTION: The working title was GOD'S VIEW
These deal with one common element -- the probability of a Nuclear War in 2033/4. In Islam, there is a prediction of the Messiah that applies to 20 March 2034 ... and demands a war.
We know that the history of Israel involves the idea that a time will come when they are no longer attacked and can live in peace -- this is the Messianic Prophecy of a Leader {or King} calculated to appear within the next decade.
Is it right or wrong?
A Messiah need only be a powerful or influential leader who assures that the State of Israel is secure.
Comically, given that he recognized Jerusalem as Israel's Capitol, the next Trump administration could trigger the prophecy. It need not be an action by Donald Trump -- at least not anything more than the person he selects as Vice President, who then becomes POTUS in 2028 and 2032 ... putting them in office when the current War, caused by IRAN sponsoring the genocidal HAMAS terrorists, goes international.
Iran is aligned with Russia and Russia is attacking Ukraine. China is now playing games in the Pacific and has yet to fully commit to genocide and the murder of all the Jews or Zionists.
But it is moving in that direction. China wants to kill those living in Taiwan and the Philipines ... that will trigger the Pacific portion of the war.
As pointed out in Biblical Prophecy: Are we in the Revelation Era, a third of life is to die. We see extinctions due to Climate Change, and the Baby Bust will have the peak population drop by a third when the majority of Baby Boomers have died...
The Baby Boom started in 1945. The average life expectancy for all people on the planet is around 75... therefore, the formula 1945 + 75 = 2020 tells us the beginning of the decline. If the outside date for that generation is 1965, then we see the effect in 2040.
With a global reproductive rate of 1.6 vs the stability rate of 2.1, the prophecy should be fulfilled by 2050. Assuming a peak population of 9 Billion people, it is fulfilled if the 2050 population is about 6 Billion people.
Now, toss in a World War involving nuclear weapons -- and a nation like America that will refrain from their use until pushed by the death of the population living between New York and Washington.
Properly, to stop the war, someone should turn Tehran and Mashhad into the new Nagasaki and Hiroshima.
Politically people would scream ... but terrorism would end. Israel cannot nuke Gaza because the winds would carry the radiation back onto its territory. Lebanon and Syria face similar fallout problems if they were to nuke Israel (Iran would need to provide them with the bombs, which is why you take out Iran before they can complete the development of their nuclear war technologies).
This is the fun of projections and predictions. If you are a Baby Boomer -- or a member of the Silent Generation that preceded them -- do you want to be alive to see if the prophecy is true?
We can look at the mess the USA government is in... think about it -- BIDEN, PELOSI, and all the others who are leaders in creating the problems ... they are the Silent Generation or early Boomers. They will be dead when the product of their actions comes to fruition. They can destroy the world because they aren't going to be here for that destruction.
The problem with predictions of future events is that those who can make them come true will not be around if the result is the worst possible outcome. And if we look at their actions, we see they are working to ensure the worst-case scenario is the only one that can happen.
They have all the short-term benefits and none of the long-term risks or suffering.
Then we have the idiots in the younger generations -- those who attack Israel for defending itself, or support Project 2025, with its attacks on the economy, the least among us, health care, and those who have worked for their retirement.
Have FUN ... be young ... be stupid ... and get what the Silent Generation is wishing upon you.
