No different. No times, no months, no days, no hours, just talking about the Popes.

Hopefully you read the article’s disclaimer in red.

Thank you for the response. And I did read the disclaimer.

My trust in predictions of the end of the world is very limited; there have been so many predictions, and none has yet to be accurate. There is no reason to believe the next one will be any more accurate than the hundreds or thousands which have gone before.

I even remember a few decades ago a prediction that California was supposed to fall into the ocean (I think it was 1969). I was there at the time, and the prediction was a no-show.

All of this brings to mind the famous quotation:

It does not pay a prophet to be too specific.

L. Sprague de Camp
