Comment from the Netherlands... Terrifying, is doomsday coming? I bought Nostradamus' Prophecies way back in 1971. Approximately around that same time I saw a documentary hosted by actor George Kennedy; in the coming decades more and disasters were predicted (earthquakes, fires, floods, global warming etc). I have been thinking about it every since. Being interested in all earth matters I have watched every National Geographic documentary on meteorites and comets; about the odds that earth can be hit again, the probability that that is why the dinosaurs became extinct, and about the comet that fell to earth in 1908 in Siberia. And then, then I read Stefan Paulus' book "Nostradamus 1999" and I feel the jigsaw puzzle is completed. Paulus has interpreted the prophecies into real possibilities, based on realism and on actual facts. He knows what he is talking about. We will be able to see the comet coming during the eclipse. The European 1999 eclipse (August 11th at 11.11 am) is to be seen in a.o. France, United Kingdom, Netherlands, Belgium and Joesoslavia (!). I sincerely hope that Mr Paulus took the wrong prophecies and interpreted them in the wrong sequence. I would advise everyone who is interested in world politics, and who has a healthy and keen interest in what is happening to earth, to buy this book. Read it, digest it intelligently and do, or don't do whatever you feel is necessary. Sophia Benjamins (benjamins@panta-electronics.com) from Amersfoort, Netherlands , June 15, 1999

woe there hoss. I guess you are so used to reading into things such as N's predictions that you failed to read my last post. I never said you didn't believe in Christ, only that I thought (ie in my opinion) that as a Christian it was sad that you didn't look to Him for answers to whatever is obviously bugging you. As far as harm than good: I would agree that most/all religions are politically motivated and therefore have done more harm than good - on a large scale - but not on a personal scale. And as I stated, I am a Roman Catholic, and although I have known Mormons I am not one. I was primarily stating a view which you apparently do not like (and why would you, having spent so much of your time trying to interpret the vagueness so correctly). That being that Nosty was nothing but a fraud who predicted in vagueness and generalities based upon mathematical guesses he was making. The easy proof of which is that in every century until now people have been able to apply ALL of his guesses to their time and age. In 1899 people used his guesses to say the world would end in 1900, big scare, even killed a few people. In 1999 people are predicting gloom and doom. Big woop, I just think its all bogus. "sig. see also "millenium sickness"" ps. I can leave religion completely out of it and still not believe in Nosty's predictions can't I? yup sure can.
