I recently came across this article (i had previously heard of the claim on a TV show, probably on discovery or something) and it involves a
prediction from a very important scientific figure in our past, the great Sir Isaac Newton, using religion rather than science & rationality he
predicted that the bible proved the world would end in the year 2060!
Here is a link to the article
Worlds End

Just goes to show, that the first real scientists were as confused by the bible as any modern creationist today.
The world's not going anywhere. And a bible prophecy is about as valuable as the paper it's printed on.

I personally am not religious in any way, and would never trust an ancient book with a thousand edits in it (this doesn't make me evil i shouldn't
think) what is quite amazing though is that to guys like Sir Issac Newton, Science was a way to prove that god existed, and physics was just how he
tried to understand 'Gods' ways, different story nowadays mind you, science and religion have reach a fork in the road.
