The day they predict the winning Lotto numbers is the day I'll start believing.

First of all, I am not much of a TV watcher of shows having to do with past blowhard philosophers and such, but my son is learning about planets at school now and we decided to watch The History Channel one night, just for the heck of it.
So, I was watching a program there about a week ago referring to Nostradamus' ('Nostra' for short) predictions, followed by a program regarding Leonardo DaVinci's predictions, and I was perplexed by something that Nostra "saw" in one of his many visions, which included visions of what or who would be causing chaos around the world in the next 400 years or so.
Nostra "saw" the one who became Napoleon Bonaparte, and saw the word "CORSICA" about 200 years before Napoleon was born. It just so happens that Napoleon was born in Corsica and was disastrous for France and Europe.
Later, the program shows that Nostra "saw" the word "HISTER", and a vision of a man from Europe wreaking chaos in the 20th Century. Experts believe "HISTER" was Hitler.
Next, Nostra "saw" the name MABUS. No one knows what MABUS is, and experts on the show said that MABUS has not yet happened on this planet. No one associated with the show could decipher what MABUS is.
But I immediately thought: MABUS stands for "MAHMOUD AHMADINEJAD BOMBS UNITED STATES". My family laughed at me, but I was dead serious.
Thoughts??
TV question ping.
Nostradamus, as I understand it, heard murmuring voices coming out of hot coals. Somebody correct me if that’s not what was attributed to him.
I would avoid Nostradamus and trust the Word of God which accurately predicted Israel’s rebirth (Isaiah 66:8) from a prophecy of about 2,500 years ago.

Ex-Miss. Gov. Mabus confirmed as US Navy secretary
7:34 p.m. May 19, 2009
JACKSON, Miss. — Former Mississippi Gov. Ray Mabus has been sworn-in as secretary of the U.S. Navy.
The U.S. Department of Defense says the ceremony took place Tuesday, a day after the Senate voted unanimously in Washington, D.C., to confirm Mabus to the Navy’s top civilian job. Mabus succeeds Donald C. Winter.
Mabus, who’s now 60, served in the Navy from 1970-72 as a surface warfare officer. The Democrat was Mississippi governor from 1988-92. He was U.S. ambassador to Saudi Arabia from 1994-96 under President Bill Clinton.
During 2008, Mabus campaigned extensively for Democrat Barack Obama. Now president, Obama nominated Mabus for the Navy post in late March.

True, but why on earth would a ‘reputable’ cable network like The History Channel devote an hour to this man??
there is no proof whatsoever that nostra was seeing that far into the future or into any future at all. he was probably a dissident dedicated to not being tortured and murdered who couched his criticism of the regime of the time in conveniently vague “predictions of future events”.
THE THIRD AND FINAL ANTICHRIST... MABUS
Mabus
The Candidates for Mabus.
The prophet forged visions into cryptic verse after sitting alone in a state of trance in nightly vigils locked away in his secret upstairs study in Salon Provence summoning what he called “angelic emissaries from God” to his aid. In the mid-1550s, he received from them words, sounds and twilit images warning about a third and final antichrist that has yet to fully reveal himself. This man is described in a prophecy indexed 10 Q72 (Century 10, Quatrain 72) as, The king of terror. He will enter the world stage, descending from distant future skies, In the year 1999 September month.
Nostradamus fashioned anagrams out of numbers too. If the month of “September” is a lead, then “1999” could be a reverse code for the actual year, month and DAY:
1999 = 9111
Thus the prophecy means to say:
In the year 9.11.1 September month,
The great King of Terror comes from the Sky.
Nostradamus gave the Third Antichrist the following code name. He’s Mabus. A number of notorious contemporary figures, still living or recently dead from the Middle East can see their names spelled in the Mabus code. But there also are other leaders from the West, deeply entangled in Middle Eastern turmoil, a current US president and a charismatic candidate who could be his successor whose names also easily decode out of Mabus, making the search for the right candidate the most provocative and topical challenge presented by Nostradamus for our present times.
Though his true name is occulted, the Third Antichrist’s destiny is made clear. Unlike the first two, he is the first to die in a war he initiates at the sign of a comet, or a rocket falling out of the skies:
World War III begins when Mabus dies a sudden death.
911 world trade center
911: World Trade Center.
His act of terror unites a hundred nations in a war against what Nostradamus calls three Eastern kings secretly allied in opposition to the West. They would use piracy (hijacking?), ambush and subterfuge to wage war.
Know the war has begun when hollow mountains of a great New City (yet to be built in Nostradamus’ day) at latitude 45 in an unborn country he called Americh or Amorica, will be attacked by a fire in the sky. The hollow mountains crafted by man will be seized and plunged into the boiling cauldron of their own debris clouds.
After this happens, we will be living in the days
of the last Antichrist.
I believe my grandparents thought Hitler was the AC. Just be prepared.
I wouldn’t worry about Amastupi’uck, as much as Odumbo.
Take a couple of aspirine and go lie down. Nostradamus was wrong as often as he was right. Prophecy is a blind man in a dark maze looking for a black book.
Nostradamus stuff is “popular” with folks, so it’s a revenue-generator.
Much like some “Bible-apologetic” shows are in fact, just plain silly. And in fact detrimental. One claimed “cool spots” in the fiery furnace in Daniel. Nonsense; the fire devoured the men who threw Shadrach, Meschech and Abednego in. It was a supernatural miracle from God; nothing less.
Read Ezekiel 38. Verse 5 mentions Iran (Persia) and Libya (Phut, Put in some translations).
I do have deep concerns for our country though. Iran cannot nuke us. Mother Russia, OTOH, still has quite a few nuke weapons and many that are long range (ICBM’s).
It’s the old game where Nostradamus made a bunch of vague predictions where we in the future fill in the details. We make it up as we go along and think that recent history is a fulfillment of his vague predictions.
He also showed history ending in 2012. I predict we won’t see many shows that are in awe of his predictive powers after 2012.
If the world will come to an end in 2012, as Nostra stated, why then is President Obama vying for Chicago to be an Olympics venue for 2016?? ;-)
a wife of a poster here thinks that since only god knows when the antichrist will appear...satan keeps popping up folks who would fit the bill..such as Hitler...and then on to the next one
‘The History Channel’ is owned in part by NBC, GE and Microsoft. I can’t watch it without throwing a shoe at the TV, LOL!
I’m no History Major, but some of the ‘history’ they sell is just flat-out lies.
They love this ‘who-do-voo-doo’ stuff, and if they had their way, they’d prove that we didn’t win WWII.
Take that for what it’s worth...I’m going to make my own destiny. You should too. Prepare for the worst and pray for the best. :)
Step away from the POPCORN.
One of the cable channels had a two-hour show about what the govt’s plans are for the aftermath of Washington DC getting nuked.
What the Hell is up with that?
Reputable
I am not sure.
Beware of anything you see on the Histeria Channel where the phrase “some say” precedes every claim they make...
Mabus = Massachusetts Busing System
Nostradomos (or whatever his name was) wrote hundreds of these quatrains, and very, very few could possibly have any shred of credence today. What you have is a bunch of nuts who find some kind of itty-bitty thread to tie these together.
If he was that full of foresight to pick “Hister,” then he should have gotten “Hitler.”
The guy was a hokey-pokey numbnuts who happens to have lots of people today all goofy about a half dozen or so “kinda-sorta-accurate-maybe” quatrains.
I think the Mayan calendar also ends at 2012...hummmmmm
I call him dumbo but I love the O!!
Speaking of lotto numbers, did you know on the day that Obama was officially the President Elect(11/05/2008), the pick three numbers in his state were 666. Something else to think about.
I thought it was "Hilter."
To get folks like you to watch it.........its all about viewership.
Personally, I like Fringe.....
I dunno. I think humans can excel at evil without Satan even getting involved.

LOL...put down the glass of wine before freeping....
A good question. My guess is that they have to dumb down to get viewers. This is an alarming trend. The National Geographic Channel has similar fare; e.g., shows devoted to the goings on at various tattoo parlors around the country. The decline of our culture continues apace.
maybe it was actually Amabos which spells sobama backwards

BUTTMAN
United States Senator
LOL - great find.
The now rare occasions they do military history they seem pretty accurate still. And when they do a special on some time period or event they still do a decent job.
It's very disappointing. One of my kids is as much of a history buff as me and we used to make Friday night our History night, but we gave up on it when History quit doing history.
I have seen several of those shows about Nostradamus. I always enjoy reading or seeing these oddities but as near as I can tell, Nostradamus was unusually bad at predicting anything.
If you write all kinds of vague predictions, sort of like what the oracle of Delphi used to do, one can nearly always make some kind of connection.
The truth is Nostradamus has nothing to say that is useful.
The History Channel has been adjusting facts for well over a year, along with "NatGeo" to fit the NWO consensus. I used to watch them extensively, now rarely.
“The day they predict the winning Lotto numbers is the day I’ll start believing.”
Your assumption is that psychics have control over what they see. I know of enough strange events that I’m willing to say there’s something there.
And one of them did concern the lottery. A friend’s mother was a religious player of the lottery. One day she was working in the garden & a series of numbers popped into her mind. She wrote them down on a scrap of paper, but didn’t go buy a ticket (I’ve forgotten the reason why). Those numbers actually did come up in the next lottery, & my friend said his mother & brother & sister would have been set for life if she had actually followed through. Too bad!
TOO FUNNY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bush's Fault.
