Interestingly, no specific kingdoms are mentioned in the statue tale, hence, a matter of interpretation and no actual prophecy.
Additionally, there are several schools of thought as to the identities of these four kingdoms: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_kingdoms_of_Daniel
"And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever." (Daniel 2:44) This never came to pass. The alleged statue prophecy is, therefore, bogus. Next case.
The kingdoms are Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece, and Rome:

It absolutely has come to pass in Christ.

There is one very well researched and backed view which is the correct view.

Sounds more like you're about to launch into some silly objection to cosmology than anything that would interest me.

Sounds more like you like making assumptions. Do you know or do you assume? Big difference.

Do I know that you were mouthing off with some silly objection to cosmology? Yes. It's pointless to say that sort of shit if you're not going to run with it. I get it, it's fun, I make these little oblique side-swiping sorts of comments all the time. The big difference, since you're a big difference guy, is that I own it.
Next.
