Does anyone know of Nostradamus? Do you have faith in all that he predicted? Do you have faith in this and that he predicted WWIII? If so and you read through his premonitions do you feel scared as i do. With War in the air at our time? do you feel that he was right in the future he saw?

Its said that he predicted the twin towers with the below… Even though the date is wrong Historians have found that 1999 could be 9/11.

In the year 1999 and seven months

From the sky will come the great King of Terror.

He will bring back to life the King of the Mongols;

Before and after war reigns.

I know this isn’t about romance and relationships but I it would be nice for a far opinions

Thanks for your opinions… I’m not trying to have fair in Nostradamus him self, just in his predictions! Its not about looking for answers, its about being interested in the world and people of it. (past and present)

His predictions aren’t really vague and haven’t been changed… Just read the below….

Beginning in 1532, Nostradamus enjoyed three years of happiness. During this time he got married and had children, but the terrible plague that Nostradamus himself had helped to fight returned killing his wife and children (Time Life 17). Deeply depressed, Nostradamus spent the next six years wandering around France and Italy. This is when he began to notice and take account of his strange prophetic gifts (Time Life 17). While wandering through Italy, Nostradamus encountered a group of Franciscan monks. Standing aside to let them pass Nostradamus suddenly exclaimed and threw himself on his knees, bowing his head and clutching at the garment of one of the monks. The monk, named Felice Peretti, was a former swine herder of very lowly birth. When asked why he had done such a silly act, Nostradamus replied, "I must yield myself and bow before his Holiness." Nineteen years after the death of Nostradamus, Peretti became Pope Sixtus V (Randi 25).

This isn’t a prediction this is actual. I’m not searching for answers, I’m just interested that’s all… I am living a full and happy life trust me, everyone has interested though…

Nostradamus is always grossly misquoted, especially on the Internet. Your quote and your "could be" explanation shows just how vague and convoluted Nostradamus' "predictions" are. I find it funny how people keep "changing" his predictions to fit in with on-going world events.

All people have faith in something, whether it be God, religion, science, Nostradamus or.. Santa Claus.

My personal opinion is that you are wasting your life looking for answers in things such as this. Go out and live your life and enjoy what it has to offer, stop expecting an apocalypse. Just my opinion, of course.

You're asking about the spiritual. Since Nostradamus lived so long ago and since so much of what he said came true, he is a prather daunting fellwo and makes one think about his/her destiny and future.

Whether what Nos says is true or not, we all still have to die one day. It may because of the King of Terror or it may be due to a car accident or an illness.

I think this kind of stuff makes us reevelate our lives and how we live them. Who was telling Nos this futuristic information? God?

If so, than we're forced to deal with the reality of a God in the world. What do we do about that? To me, that is the bigger question; bigger than than wondering if Nos was right or not. Odds are, he was. Odds are, there is a God and he told Nos this stuff. What do we do now?
