I remember a drive-by witness several years who bloviated about the Great Beast being born, timed with the passage of a comet, exactly according to prophecy, and Cecil Adams couldn’t disprove it. His link went to pages and pages of rants about how all the skeptics would pay for laughing at him, the course of the comet, its passing of Earth at the exact same time the Great Beast was born, and other coincidental data, till the denouement, the link to a picture of the Great Beast, which turned out to be… a six-legged goat. PROOF that the prophecy was true. The Great Beast went on to destroy an entire square meter of grass. ---
