I know very little about the Bible. I read it from cover to cover when I was eleven/twelve but have retained nothing.

How much should we consider self-fulfilling prophecies when looking at Biblical predictions?

Is it not possible that the 'interpretation' of events (that *is* all we really get outside of physical evidence) is a result of the same dynamic as the production of events to match a prediction?

It's hard to *do* self-fulfilling predictions when they involve contravention of established physical law.

That's why I chose the examples I did. :-)

Skeptics claim this *proves* them false, adherents call them miracles.

I beg your pardon, I'm not sure what you're asking...could you rephrase that?

Cheers!
