As the quote from Socrates demonstrates, there are troubles in all times. Do you know who Celsus was? Christianity has received criticism ("scoffers") from the very beginning. As such, this fails because it's true of many times in the past; it's not specific enough. (10 Ancient Critics Of Christianity)

You're trying to turn a sow's ear into a silk purse by quoting excuses for why an exact date isn't given? All that does is reinforce that your "prophecy" isn't sufficiently precise for its fulfillment to mean anything about the predictive powers of the bible. You claim the bible produces amazing predictions and your evidence is a passage saying that it won't produce amazing predictions? Honestly, you must not be right in the head.

This is entirely too vague and nonspecific to count as fulfilled prophecy. Are you dense?
