Wow really good thread, especially the video clips from the History Channel in the OP. I'd just like to weigh in on this topic because I believe
these web-bot are pretty good statistically at forecasting. Also, I believe they are gear towards measuring social sentiment. Have anyone checked
out the
Sibylline Oracle? When you begin to read this, it looks very much looks like a
biblical text. The part that references the resurrection, prophecy, tower of babel are pretty amazing.
Cumaean Sybil was a prophet around 100BC?? Seems that her prophecy clearly point to Jesus
Christ, so I wonder why the church never adopted it?? Perhaps because she wasn't part of the boys club. Anywayz, I have never even heard of her,
but the it is certainly an interesting read.
