We know that Christianity is something false and evil, okay. But what is the explanation for the biblical prophecies that are actually happening in the course of time? I really want to understand this. Could you please explain to me? I'm trying to study as much as I can so I can have more knowledge and have bigger and better arguments when I talk about Satanism. I was already taken by surprise when they talked about the issue of prophecies and I didn't know what to say. can you help me?
No prophecy is happening. I have debated many Christians. They take a vague Bible passage, twist it, play with its words and claim it predicted a current event. This is called confirmation bias. Never mind that their particular interpretation often destroys its entire context. And if it did predict an event, how come nobody made that same prediction before the event? A Christian was telling me that the Bible predicted vaccines. He mentioned a verse from Revelation where the Greek word pharmakeia is used and said that word is usually translated sorcery, but it can mean "the use of pharmaceutics", so that one verse predicted vaccines. There is a serious problem with his twisting of that Greek word there, because from its context it can only mean sorcery in a symbolic way. And if it was meant to predict the vaccines, how come no Christian before Covid interpreted it to mean "use of pharmaceutics"?
Because -
- most of them probably never read enough of the bibles to know anything about them; they just get 2nd-hand, 3rd-hand, etc. information off others,
- they're not actually certain about anything; they just have "faith" and hope and wish and prey/pray
- they're holding-out, in the hopes that something will be vaguely and by a very wide margin, in one way or another remotely similar to something happening
then say, "See? The bible told you so". My argument has been "Why did 'god' not say, 'PANDEMIC 2020! PREPARE NOW!'?"; if "god" is oUtSiDe TiMe AnD sPaCe, then it was present during 2020 when others were around in year 0; and when I asked, it was either ignored or was not given an actual answer. "It doesn't work like that" was not a response, strangely. Some of them gave bitchy replies, of course.
If that Greek word in Revelation "predicted" CovID-19, then what about all of the other illnesses and diseases in history, and still present and the future? There have been many pandemics before, and many times a lot of people were quarantined in wards and administered vaccines, etc. What about "god" not giving Humans knowledge of germs; that
we discovered them a couple of centuries ago - through Science?
The history of germs began when germ theory was developed, proved, and popularized in Europe and North America between about 1850 and 1920. Before that time, people believed that foul odors could create disease or that evil spirits could cause a person to become ill. It was very rare for parents to see all their children survive to adulthood, and strange preventative measures were taken to no avail.
A breakthrough came during the 19th century, when improvements to microscope technology enabled microbiologists to investigate the world of previously unseen, disease-causing organisms. They found that illnesses were actually caused by interactions between bacteria or viruses and a host, instead of environmental influences, climate, ventilation, and other earlier understandings of health and disease.

"god" never informed anyone of any of this.
Humans did - we discovered it, we learnt it, and we informed of it.
Pharmakeia = vaccines? Which biblical verses = the existence of germs? "...and on the 8th day, 'god' forgot, so it created germs to fuck you up with illnesses and other ailments". Even
leprosy does not equal an exact skin condition of leprosy; it was more a general term - and some bibles with footnotes and similar things have said that, and no-doubt some Sunday morning preaches have included it, as well.
