I am referring to Jewish-Christian prophecy, not the likes of Nostradamus, Harold Camping or even Isaac Newton. Before hitting the reply button, remember what your mother said about not saying anything at all if you don't have anything nice to say.
Unlike Mayan, Nostradamus or Hopi 'prophecy', the Bible has a 100% accuracy rate. Biblical prophecy uses symbolism to point to nations, kingdoms, kings, etc and a very specific event followed by a time period. I am not entirely sure about the authenticity of the book of Revelations that is included in the New Testament. Daniel, of the Old Testament and the original holy scriptures of Judaism, was undoubtedly a prophet. I think we're going to see some important events unfold in September with the UN '66th Assembly' deciding on whether or not to divide the borders of Israel with the Palestinians. I think that regardless of the outcome, we're going to see some unusual events unfold followed by a period of war. Of course, the way it is portrayed in the controlled media will be that of the invading nations doing what is in the best interests of the people, etc. I believe that Obama will play a big role as well as pope Benedict XVI (Ratzinger). Other nations, particularly those in the Middle East and others surrounding Israel, such as the Mediterranean will play a role. I would go into more depth, but I fully anticipate getting thumped over the head with a college-approved textbook.
The Mayans were good astronomers/astrologers and had a calendar with an end date. That's it. When my calendar ends, I throw it out and buy a new one. The Hopi have an oral tradition of prophecy and have surfaced recently saying the end is drawing nigh. In my opinion, if it's an oral tradition passed down through generations it's about as reliable as broken telephone and their timing for going public is interesting.
Texts like the Kolbrin bible (Egyptian) and Chilam Balam (Mayan) are of questionable origins, authorship and time periods. As far as I know, they merely point to vague time periods or waves and what will happen during the apocalypse. Sumer/Sumeria is Babylon in the bible. Many of the tablets weren't found until the 19th century and then translated when, miraculously, an archeologist stumbled upon a Rosetta Stone. The likes of Zacharia Sitchin have attempted to interpret the tablets (poorly), even going as far as to use the Bible as support for his interpretations (sitchiniswrong.com). All of these cultures practiced the occult in one form or another, had polytheistic religion, and even practiced self-deification. I find it interesting that cultures, with no apparent connection, separated by oceans, would all have enormous pyramids that could, say, keep a select few alive in the event of global flooding.
If you're interested in archeology, take a look at what has been kept quiet and not sensationalized. The Shroud of Turin, the Crystal Skull (Mitchell-Hedges), Piltdown man, maps depicting Antarctica before it was covered with ice and before it was even 'discovered', fossilized footprints of men running from dinosaurs, footprints and fossils bringing into question the age of man, giant skeletons (no, not the ones seen in that competition to create the best hoax photo of giant skeletons - I wonder who came up with that idea?), evidence that the great pyramids of Giza may be water eroded, not with sand erosion... the list goes on. The mainstream science community has often put out reports of the exact same findings with their own spin story, many years later, with out any mention of the original finding and conclusions.
Mainstream science is funded to find evidence for what certain people want to have found. Any competing theories can't get the funding to attempt to prove their hypothesis, and even if they manage to bring forward a good case, it's not going to get published in any major journal or media outlet. Even the education system, with colleges and universities often relying a lot on funding outside of tuition, perpetuates the cycle of continuing to build conjecture on top of suppositions. The education system is not about thinking outside the box, it's about building a box in which you are allowed to think. Why do you think many theories have remained theories for decades or even centuries, yet have a lot of 'compelling evidence'?
