If Nostradamus predicted that the world will end in 2012, how exactly will this happen?
I don't think he predicted that considering his predictions extend until the year 3797. And they are so vague that they'll apply to whatever people want to attach them to. They are hardly cold hard predictions of the future. They're nice poetry at best.
I'm baffled as to why there is a section of the population that is obsessed with our obliteration. I'd rather the world didn't end in 2012, and I don't think it's going to.
2 Thumbs down! Ha! He says in the preface to his prophecies,
"But after being surprised sometimes by day while in a trance, and having long fallen into the habit of agreeable nocturnal studies, I have composed books of prophecies, each containing one hundred astronomical quatrains, which I want to condense somewhat obscurely. The work comprises prophecies from today to the year 3797."
