It seems you chose to ignore most of those, however.
Your responses were more intelligent than most, so I apologize.
Yes, I have had a number of responses. And yes, I certainly am ignoring most of them, because most of them are unintelligent, swear-ridden attacks on religion rather than logical discussion.
You bring up a valid point about the vagueness of prophecy. Certain prophecies are vague, but others are too specific to be coincidence. I will try to explain more of these further on in the discussion.
I have yet to read a clear biblical prophecie. THey're all vague and/or made up of word salad. Some of that may be down to verious interpretations and translations over the centuries, but they would honestly be more valid if they were clear and concise: "On this day, this will happen in this place."
Biblical prophecies remind me of the "prophecies" of Nostradamus: easily interpreted to mean what you want them to mean, after the events have supposedly occurred. Which is why no one who equated any of the prophecies to 911 did so before the attacks occurred.
