Are the laws of physics based on magic?

You must have missed how the war was supernaturally averted by the people on the Syria thread.

I thought it was averted (so far) by diplomacy and convincing others of the potential consequences of a war in Syria. What is supernatural about that?

In the last two posts I have used the words potential (and its implications) several times and in context of recognizing and prophecizing a possible future.

What prophecy wouldn't come about by some human or natural intervention?
What would you consider the sort of intervention you wanted?
Has there been an historical example?

Precisely, there is nothing supernatural or magical in any of this.

No, it is an evolutionary process. All sentient living things exhibit this ability to a degree. It is just very advanced in humans and in some humans more than others.

Is the creation of a great work of art the work of god or the work by a mind that has an advanced artistic component? This is the function of evolution, accidental genetic refinement of functionality and adaption to natural circumstances.

There is only one instance where the speculation of the existence of a god (deity) may be invoked and that is as a causality for the BB and that is only because we don't know yet the real causality. When we find that we shall know if it the BB was an inevitability or a "motivated" creative sentient force.
Once you are inside the universe, everything is by definition a natural part of universal evolutionary processes.

The difference will be determined by the effort we put in.
Like we could all say we are doomed because of Global Warming but the people (some) are taking a stand to prevent this.

The war in Syria could have been the start of WW3 but we took a stand and changed direction, so far so good.
So some prophecies averted are a good thing aren't they. So who is really worried that the prophets of doom were wrong?

Saying that someone will probably die of a heart attack if they only eat bacon deep fat fried in butter is not a prophecy or a premonition. It's just common sense.

I once has a friend tell me that all the prophecies in the Bible have come true... except those that have not yet come to pass. He couldn't figure out why I burst out laughing.

So you are virtually an atheist then. Did the holy spirit descend upon Jesus at the time of his baptism?

I'm like you too. But did you read where I had the prophecy that Mike Steele would die, and he died within a month, yet no one knew there was anything wrong with him?
My Dad used to eat that type of food, and lived close to 87 years old, so you would have to wait a while if you had said that prophesy over someone with his constitution!

Did the holy spirit descend on Hitler at the time he wrote Mein Kampf? He was a very spiritual man. Did the holy spirit guide the terrorists who brought down the WTC? They were very spiritual people willing to martyr themselves in the name of god.

Or was that the other god, the devil?
 
I have a premonition that the Dow will go down on Monday. I see a wet day in Seattle and I'm seeing some not so good things happening on "Breaking Bad" unless there is some intervention.

So was that a yes or a no then about Jesus? Those other questions you sprung on me would seem to take a bit more research.

I can't mock what I don't have evidence for in the first place (the anointed whether by the Lord or otherwise). I am demonstrating how easy the predictions are to make.

But we agreed they had to be Earth shattering ones, not wishy washy ones like you mockingly wrote down. They don't happen every day so you have to be patient OK.
That is why I transferred our "Million Dollar" challenge to the the premonitions thread as well so it will be easier to find.

I saw the first post in the premonition thread. It was predicting the sex of The Royal Baby.

OK, war will break out in the middle east at some point. China will eventually cause problems for some of its neighbors. Our economy and financial system will have some major problems I predict.

Do we have to wait 2000 years for some of those to happen?
