Thats a good thing

And going over other cultures prophecies wouldn't prove you correct about Bible prophecy, it would disprove much of what the Bible believers say is true. Your belief is that there is only one true way, isn't it? You can't have it both ways. And it might prove that some ancient Jews and Greeks were able to glean from their ideas, some of the same thoughts and understandings that many other cultures found to be true to them. We are all humans, whether or not we are all the same religion. You've heard of the collective unconscious?
Great, lets get this train in motion then. Prove me wrong through unbiblical prophecies.

How can you disprove a claim of something that hasn't happened yet? Or that happened in the past for a people, but people today think hasn't happened yet? You believe that something is occurring today, that many people believed was happening 500 years ago, a thousand years ago, 2000 years ago, etc. Nothing is written clearly enough in the prophecies to convince me that it couldn't have been applied to a million other situations. It is deliberately ambiguous.

Waiting, in all honesty, that just isnt true. There are TONS of clear as day prophecies going on right now. Im not coming at you trying to prove anything, I didnt even believe in the bible till I was shown these things. I always believed in God, but I didnt know were to turn for truth, till I was shown. I didnt have any preconcived notions, so I was able to look with a opened mind. There are many that are vague, but when you add them all together, a pretty clear picture arises. What is the extent of your biblical knowledge regarding end time prophecies??

You would simply disagree with the interpretation that I believed. So why bother. I simply will not agree that the Bible is telling us now, what our future holds, or that it has anything to do with physical reality, it's more likely an esoteric teaching meant for inner transformation, to be understood by those who are trained in the teaching. Such as a disciple or an apostle, those in the inner circle of the religion or faith.

Well, if you cant open your mind even to the possibility, then it will do me no good. It still doesnt put you in a position to tell me im wrong.

A magnetic shift will do nothing to humans. It has happenend hundreds of times in the past, and will happen hundreds of times in the future. All it is is the Earth's outer core (mostly iron and nickle) steadily reshifting it's current. The outer core is responsible for our magneti field, and when this 'disaster' does occur it will be roughly one day, where you may get a severe sunburn if you stay out too long. I'm not sure about the damage done to satellites, but it would be severe, as the magnetic field of the Earth is the main shield for our satellites. We'd have communications down across the world, most radio stations would have a lot of interference. After the field re-aligns all we will need to do is switch our compasses around and repair our satellite fleets.

The ancient Greeks used to say, "You shall know a man by the friends that he keeps." Given the nature of his friends and advisors, what are we to conclude about George W. Bush:
