If anyone else quotes fucking Nostradamus at me, I am going to go mad.

In case you don't know what I'm talking about: "In the City of God there will be a great thunder, Two brothers torn apart by Chaos, while the fortress endures, the great leader will succumb" , "The third big war will begin when the big city is burning"- Nostradamus 1654.

If Nostradamus was so great, how come he predicted the end of the world happening on no less than 8 different dates, all of which have now passed?

from the age of 6 onwards (when my evil aunt gave me a book about nostradamus) to 1999 i believed the world was going to end before i reached my 25th birthday. i now assume he just got the date wrong. yes, i wish i'd never read this information, because i've spent a lot of the intervening years believing nothing mattered because my life would be over before i got to do anything. unfortunately i don't see myself stopping believing in it anytime soon.

Eeek, 6 is definitely too young to read anything like that :( I read three books of his prophecies when I was 13 (for a project I was doing at school), and was scared even then. *hugs*

Liam is still missing :/
