Years ago, I found, in the local K-Mart, a book titled "Christ Returns by 1988, 101 Reasons Why." At least one of those reasons was Jimmy Carter's election to the Presidency!

Shoulda bought that book, but I was very broke in those days. It remained on sale until sometime in 1985, and then it quietly disappeared.

BROKE? They only cost two dollars! I bought two and still have them. I keep them with my other “failed end times” prophecy books.

It's not only Christians who go a bit wacko. I remember one November day in the supermarket checkout line reading some new-age psychic's predictions for coming year. The big one? "Major new initiatives by President Kennedy". The coming year? You guessed it - 1964.

Would-be prophets should remember the wisdom of Daniel - prophesy only after the events have happened.
