Devote yourself to my teachings and follow me!” How would you react? Perhaps you would challenge them by asking for proof. You open it and are greeted by a stranger: “I can see into the future. 2 CHAPTER 1 Genuine Prophets or Frauds? Imagine you hear a knock on the door. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, and we will utilise a number of different tools in order to put the most popular of these to the test. In this book we are going to examine the prophetic credentials of those in whom millions of people have put their trust. History is littered with individuals and sacred texts that make the momentous claim of being able to see into the future. As with most things in life, where there is great demand there is supply. Indeed, the desire to unveil the future is an aspect of human behaviour that transcends culture and religion and is as old as the human story itself. It is not solely the domain of the religious, as even atheists, those who claim there is no God, are drawn to trying to peer into the future, with horoscopes being more popular than ever in secular societies. The reasons are just as rich and varied as the methods they include curiosity, guidance for everyday life and searching for meaning. Today millions of people indulge in practices such as astrology, tarot, numerology, palm reading, psychics and many others. Is it just the fear of the unknown that drives us? There seems to be more to it than that. These are uncertain times, and new world events bring fresh speculation and a renewed eagerness to make sense of what’s happening around us by looking to the predictions of prophets and oracles of history. Talk of global warming saturates the news, the threat of a nuclear holocaust has persisted since the invention of the atomic bomb and storylines involving asteroids, aliens, and zombie apocalypses wiping out all planetary life dominate Hollywood blockbusters. Perhaps this is due to the last century having witnessed so much destruction and devastation. End time prophecies in particular seem to strike a chord with us and are more popular than ever.
