It's a Model, Not Prophecy!

personal gain. No ethics at all. His Kyoto protocol failed in the
Senate by something like 98-0. Totally worthless, incompetent person.

None of that is true; Gore would have been a good president.

Quote:Anyway, back to the subject. I don't believe that anything the
president does can cause or prevent a world war. The war is most
likely to be triggered by some event like a border war between
Pakistan and India, or a proxy war between Iran and Saudi Arabia, and
none of those have anything directly to do with somebody having
read the fourth turning.

These are potential triggers; it still takes the USA president or other major powers to create a world war out of it.

Quote:However, there is an interesting example of a self-fulfilling prophecy
that I've referred to a number of times. Isaiah 17:1-3 predicts the
destruction of Damascus, turning it from a city into "a heap of
ruins." Almost everyone in the Mideast seems to know about this
prophecy, so if anyone ever nukes Damascus, it would be with the
specific purpose and intent of fulfilling the prophecy, which would
make it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Assad seems intent on virtually fulfilling the prophecy; we'll see what happens. He's already the worst war criminal since Hitler, Stalin and Pol Pot.
