Nostrodamus Quote

I can across this message on collegeclub.com(http://www.collegeclub.com). Here how it’s go:
Some of you had asked about a prediction from Nostrodamus. This is the
direct quote. Mind you, I’m not saying I believe in this or not, but the
parallels are kind of eerie.

Peace,
El Poeta.

“In the year of the new century and nine months,
From the sky will come a great King of Terror…
The sky will burn at forty-five degrees.
Fire approaches the great new city…”
“In the city of york there will be a great collapse,
2 twin brothers torn apart by chaos
while the fortress falls the great leader will succumb
third big war will begin when the big city is burning”

  • NOSTRADAMUS

He said this will be bigger than the previous two.
2001 is the first year of the new century and this is the 9th
month.
New York is located at the 41st degree Latitude.

Can you tell me if this is real or not?

I hope you didn’t come directly in here from collegeclub.com without an acid bath.

It’s not an actual Nosty quote, and it’s been rewritten about two dozen times since Tuesday afternoon.

No

and no

It’s not true.

I wonder if Nostradamus predicted that this thread would be closed.

I read that as well. Must be going around a lot. I am no believer of Mr. N., his predictions of Hitler seemed extremely vague, but this seems close to target. I am curious if this is a recent translation, or a re-translation, much like Matthew did with old testament prophesies.

This is as good place as any to recommend James Randis excellent book, The Mask of Nostradomus.
Then those of you who are superstitious can sleep well again at night.

Road Rash, please read some of the links posted previous to your post.

Net for those not inclined to go to links: This is a bunch of hogwash.

If someone said that something was in the Bible and you doubted it, you would ask for Book, Chapter and Verse, right?

Nostrodamus’ writings broken down into Centuries and Quatrains. Ask your source to identify what Century and Quatrain this latest prediction is from. They can’t. Nostro never said anything like this, even given translations and obscure medieval imagery.

Snopes is the premier site for clarifying this sort of thing.

Please “reply all” with this message to everyone on the list every time you get this e-mail.

I’m going to close this thread because it has been discussed so recently. Any remaining unanswered questions on this topic are directed to the other thread, Nostradamus
