There was an interesting article the other day on these “end times” predictions, and one case in particular was more preposterous than the others. It involved one guy who predicted the world would end on some date in the 1990s ... and then resurfaced about ten years later with the same prediction for another date. LOL.

It was Michel de Nostradamus who predicted in the 16th century that the world would end in 1997 A.D. This was brought out by Orson Welles in his 1981 film “The Man Who Saw Tomorrow”.
When that didn’t come to pass, a TV adaptation of the 1981 film named Saddam Hussein as the third antichrist who would rise out of the Middle East, and updated the end date to....2003?
That prediction fizzled too, IIRC./s
Christ did say, “...for ye know not the hour”. That’s certain.
