"Ok how does it work and why do you think all the bible prophecies are scams"
Was the prophecy precise or so generalized it could easily be applied to multiple examples? If I predict that there will be a fatal traffic accident (somewhere, anywhere) before Saturday, and I being prophetic?
Was my prediction noted and documented before or after the event?
How many predictions were made, and what percentage came true? I could make a thousand predictions, some will come true, and some will not. Am I genuine predictor or just throwing shit at a wall hoping some will stick? How many times have religious leader predicted the end of times?
Was the prediction almost assured, but all other details (location, times, characters) undocumented. A great nation will rise up and be destroyed. Of course that will happen, that is a distinct pattern of human activity.
Just a few examples and food for thought.

"Who says i cant believe somethings and be skeptical about others"
Which is your right. But I suggest you apply the same standards of evidence to everything equally.
@Rickswordfish: STOP CHANGING THE TOPIC. Typical Christian bullshit tactic. You asserted Danial 9 was a prophecy. No ONE IS BUYING IT. You have been given all the evidence debunking your claim completely and now you want to wriggle around and change topics. PROVE THAT YOUR INTERPRETATION OF DANIEL IS CORRECT OR ADMIT IS IS NOT. No one gives a shit about what you believe. Facts do not support your beliefs.
(EDITED: 12 CHANGED TO 9, TO MAKE RICKY HAPPY.)
No i said daniel 9 was the prophecy, maybe you should try paying attention instead of acting like an asshole
@Rickswordfish: HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA! re: " the gospels may misrepresent him,"
SO THE GOSPELS ARE WRONG ABOUT JESUS - THE VERY THING THEY ARE WRITTEN TO EXPLAIN, BUT COMPLETELY CORRECT ABOUT PROPHECY. HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!
Oh my, my, my, ..... my side hurts! I think I wet myself again.
Since you also claimed the "gospels misrepresent him", and are therefore by definition unreliable, what objective evidence can you demonstrate for your second claim, that will negate your first claim being such an obvious falsehood?
RE: "I do however think jesus was real and was some kind of divine being but i believe the gospels may misrepresent him"
DOUBLE FACE PALM!!
@Rickswordfish: IT'S FUNNY AS HELL, You are a troll.
@Cog Re: "@Rickswordfish: IT'S FUNNY AS HELL, You are a troll."
Dang, you are getting slow. You are JUST NOW realizing that?... *shaking head sadly*... Hey, lay off the fermented bananas for awhile Bonzo.
@TIN: I do give everyone a chance. I did legitimately respond to the OP. I even gave the guy an honest link that he could read for himself. If he wishes to wallow in ignorance and make totally ridiculous comments, well, that just isn't my fault.
@Cog
"@Rickswordfish: IT'S FUNNY AS HELL, You are a troll."
Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding. Thaaaaaaat's right Johnny. Now tell the man what he's won.
Cognastic - You've won, a BRAND NEW BIBLE!!!!
It's the guar-an-teed word of God (at least you can believe some of it, your choice). It comes leather-bound and with the Words of Christ in Red Text, so you know it's accurate. It's manufacturer's price is $249. It's all yours Cog - thanks for playing our game.
I'm sorry. I already have a bible, a concordance, and the internet. I would really like a new Satanic Bible though. Some Christians broke into my office a few years ago and burned it in a trash can. (True Story.)
Look if youre not going to take this seriously and just act likema jackass stay off this forum
@RickyRicardo
There is nothing you have written that can in any way be taken seriously.
@Rickswordfish: " likema jackass stay off this forum" I'm confused? Did you just say "ma" was a jackass? Yours or mine?
As far as staying off the forum goes; have you tried praying away the Cog? It does not help but you will feel better when you realize God has a plan and he is testing you.
@Rickswordfishy: Have you forgotten: "God never gives you more than you can handle. "
@Cog
Sorry, all prizes are not exchangeable.
And the Satanists really should stop hitching their wagon to religious dogma.
Keep it up ill report you for bullying
@Ricky
Oh no, please don't do that. (I'm on my knees begging for the first time since I swore off religious nonsense). I completely apologize if I have offended your delicate sensibilities.
@Rickswordfishthetroll
You'd think theists would tire of such an obvious cliche as pretending they're a victim?
I'm sceptical you're being honest...
@NewSkeptic: I guess it is okay. I will just put it on the shelves with the other rolls of toilet paper.
@Cog
I'm afraid the raised text and coarse paper makes it completely unsuitable for that purpose, but I guess in a pinch.....
New Skeptic: My thoughts as well. I can always put it in the corn cob bin. (Have I given away my rustic upbringing?)
It makes good fire starter for the wood-burning stove.
The god damned bible idea written after all the bullshit... err , events supposedly happened. Wouldn’t it be easy as fuck to write fiction about something that had already supposedly happened? God damn it.
On the off chance that you are serious (and it is getting harder and harder to suspend disbelief): after talking with you, I'd guess the reason you think so many prophecies have seemingly come true, is because you want them to be true.
And I'm not trying to be snarky, just honest with you.
I dont want them to be true but to me it looks they are true espicially the one in daniel 9
@Rickswordfish: RE: " to me it looks they are true" Then stop ignoring FACTS.
What facts? you havent presented any facts
