I watched most of it that last night. I was hoping for something sensible. But we got 3 hours of credulous Nostradamus garbage, then an hour of Edgar Cayce garbage. Then repeated. From 5 PM to 3 AM. **10 HOURS** of wall-to-wall **CRAP**! I just couldn’t believe it.

This was in complete contrast to earlier programs which had knowledgeable people debunking Nostradamus.

Now it’s the Bible Channel? Maybe, but they’ve had on a lot of programs debunking the Bible. And they used to be called the Hitler Channel.

I don’t think we’ll see a lot of debunking the Koran, though.
