Evolution predicts nothing.

Yes, it does. I predict, based upon the theory of evolution, that you will never find a transposon that exists in both whales and cows but not in hippos. That's a prediction. It has a very specific falsification criteria.

It cannot even predict if there will be life on the planet next week.

Neither can gravitational theory. I don't see you pooh-poohing gravity because of that.

You can use the theory to guess about the future, but it is only a guess, and even then it is a guess about the general direction of life.

Please look up the definition of "prediction" before you make such a bizarre argument.

The prophesies of God, however, predict the rise and fall of nations, the coming of the Son of God, the final judgement, future rewards and punishments, and the healing of the nations.

The alleged "prophecies" supposedly put forth by the god that you worship have nothing to do with evolution.

The foolish notion of evolution espoused by ignorant, self-centered atheists has nothing to do with reality.
