Edit: I do agree with the overall message though that we must correct our wrongs before it is too late. That much is too true for words.edit on 27/1/12 by murkraz because: (no reason given)

So the prediction/prophecy this time around is:
1) By March 2012, if the world hasn't contrived a means of feeding everyone in the planet, a natural disaster of some kind will happen (caused by God.)
2) By summer (June 20th - September 22nd) 2012, if it hasn't happened, no one on Earth will have enough food.
3) By the end of the year, if we still don't get with the program, dreadful vengeance will be exacted.
Okay. So we know the dates. All that's left is to wait and see, as usual. As always, I will not assert that nothing will happen, as I can't prove that assertion. I will however say - again, as always - that prophecies like these have come and gone on ATS literally hundreds, if not thousands, of times without incident. I have no compelling reason to expect this one to be different. But anything is possible, so I will wait along with everyone else and see what happens.
I will confess that while I certainly do wish the world would come together in agreement regarding an efficient, non-wasteful means of food distribution that was more fair and ensured everyone had enough to eat, I'm not particularly concerned that this prophecy will come to pass personally. Given all the others. But again, anything is possible.
Peace.

Within a week of the superbowl, something important is going to happen. It may not seem important at the time, but it will be.
Don't worry, as it reads in the OP, you'll still be able to deny me past March even.

We are well into March. I haven't seen any reports of major natural disasters of a magnitude that would lead me to believe a deity was punishing humanity for not feeding all of humanity (i.e. any greater severity or frequency that was already the norm before this prophecy.) Am I checking in too early?

So is this an amorphous, broadly interpretable, unfalsifiable prediction open to interpretation until many months from now when and if the final date passes either in fulfillment of it, or without incident? Just clarifying. Even the "signs" leading up to it are open to interpretation and are unfalsifiable. "Something" called natural but "not" will happen could include an unbelievably long list of things, you must admit. You could have made that prediction during multiple years since the AGW alarm bells started going off, and would have still been potentially correct depending upon how it was interpreted. (Oh but you said we'd still be able to "deny" the prophecy at this point, so it actually fulfills it in that sense. I forgot. Not being snarky. I actually did forget. Though that's another good example of an unfalsifiable prediction.)
Anyhow, because this early stage is still so broadly interpretable and undefined, we have to wait until later stages of the prediction to verify it. Which is fine, of course. We've done it countless times before. What's one more? (Still not asserting that nothing will happen, btw. Just assuming crash position because this has happened so, so many times, and only a fool would ignore such a lengthy and well established pattern.)

If so, as you say, why isn't He speaking to the Pope that we might see His Church lead the way.
I say yea, oh Church of Rome.
Open thy coffers.
