The head of gold is the Nebuchadnezzar and the Babylonians, =================================== So you claim. Got any evidence for that assertion? ================================== then there are the Persians, =================================== So you claim. Got any evidence for that assertion? ================================== then the Greeks, ================================ So you claim. Got any evidence for that assertion? ================================== then the Romans, etc., ================================== So you claim. Got any evidence for that assertion? ================================== till you get to the iron mixed with miry clay, which signify the kingdoms of modern Europe. ===================================== So you claim. Got any evidence for that assertion? ================================== Most people are capable of understanding the prophecy, ==================================== Translation: Most 'believers' will read between the line to "see" what isn't there in order to prop up their beliefs. ==================================== but probably no atheist would be able to do it. ================================= Translation: No atheist would be that gullible. =============================== The prophecy was given in 600 B.C. ================================ How do you know this? Where you there? Were there any independent witnesses? Age does not imply truth. Smiler, The godless one a.a.# 2279
