Now take into account the fact that Pat Robertson predicted the world would end back in
1982 and for some *shrug* unknown reason

I am not
convined of his prediction.
Here on ATS I have seen virtually NOT a
SINGLE prediction come true. And in fact if i see a prediction something is 'going' to happen I feel
almost certain it won't happen. In fact bet the opposite of predictions.
Some people have predicted Kerry would win. I thought that was a certain victory for Bush, but now Robertson says this and it gives me a small glimmer
of hope for Kerry's election.
