Quote: ok you might find my topic a bit weird but it works every year and they put him every year on tv so he can predict what's going to happen in our country and in the whole world this is about a guy that can predict the future very here in lebanon they put him every new year's eve on tv mostly he talks about politics and stuff but those are some things he said that will happen this year or maybe the next that got stuck on my mind(trust me everything this guy says comes true and i am not lying about anything i'm about to say) first for those who live in the united states: - a big scandal will happen between george bush and two people close to him - a big earthquake will hit one of the states but he didn't say which one as for other stuff he said: - there will be more terrorist attacks specially on hotels and touristic places -something very unusual will happen to the sun that will keep the scientists busy with research -a strange body will be found and it might be something not from our earth -a big earthquake will hit the middle east (a bit like the Tsunami thingy) ok this is the stuff i remember till now i wanna say this again: i am not making this stuff up! if you wanna know more about this guy his name is "michel hayek" but remember the things he said are not only for 2005 they can happen up to 3 years or somethin like that ^ from a forum somewhere ^ _______________ - Even if Carlsberg made "w*nkers", Christiano Ronaldo would still be the biggest "w*nker" in the world |

Quote: tbh itøs kinda easy to predict earhquakes happening within 3 years of now, as wella s terrorism. Easy to predict earthquakes? O_O If you mean in general, yeah, because the earths tetonic plates do shift quite a bit, but predicting i.e. date, time is nearly impossible. If that were true, we could've brought everyone inland when this big tsunami happened, and saved a few hundered thousand lives. Terrorism is a big issue. I think many of us are wondering at this point, why hasen't another attack happened on the US? I would absolutly love to belive that the US has A+ security, and that terrorist groups are scared to death, and are turning themselves in, but.. I'm not that wishful of a thinker. Making a prediciton on that is pretty easy, because it's logical that the US will be attacked. It's not a matter of if, it's a matter of when But, people tend to focus on correct predictions, rather than incorrect ones. Like, with 500 predictions, even if 499 of them are wrong, the "psychic" still is considered to have supernatural powers. It's almost like predicting that in one second, I'm still going to be typeing this post. If a psychic ever made one (and only one), real, true and correct prediction, it would be noteable, but stuff like this I find kind of silleh -Drathir _______________ Where we ask the question, "Is real life really stranger than fiction, or is fiction about real life being stranger than fiction stranger than real life being stranger than fiction?"

Yeah, all the things the guy stated were pretty safe. It's like if I said: "This year the President will be ridiculed for a poor mistake." That happens to practically every president, every year. _______________ Top ten reasons to get a better computer...|My fan |

What I love about these guys is that every years they make hundreds of predictions, non of which is tooooo unlikely, e.g. there will be an earthquake (they happen all the time), and at the end of the year their press talks about only the small handful of predictions that came true. They never talk about the overwhelming number of them that were wrong. Remember Jeane Dixon? When she was an unknown she predicted the assassination of the President of the United States, year after year after year, and it never happened. Of course, it's not a bad prediction for a "psychic" to make if the press will only report it if it comes true--something like 11% of all U.S. presidents get assassinated, so it's really not that unlikely. There's no penalty for being wrong, and if you're right you make headlines. The "prediction" that she supposedly got right that rocketed her to national fame was the assassination of JFK, a prediction that appeared in Parade magazine (in 1956) and actually said that the winner of the 1960 election (it didn't say who it would be) would be assassinated but not necessarily in his first term. Not much of a prediction, and the odds against it are not that long. But it made her famous, and although virtually all of her predictions have proved wrong she made a huge name because the press only reported the ones that were right. Her most notable JFK prediction, though the press seldom rememember it, was in 1960: "John F. Kennedy would fail to win the presidency." Oh, and there's this! Anybody got a link to this guy's list of predictions for this year? This could be an interesting exercise in probability. _______________ My signature is only one line. You're welcome. |

If he'd be more exact I might just believe him. But come on a terrorist attack between now and three years from now... And the strange body will prolly be Gradius _______________ -Nero Quote: Curious, Smartass, what else? This comment was edited by Nero on Jan 02 2005 09:40am. |
