2Pe 3:3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
2Pe 3:4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.

Acts 2:17-18
‘In the last days,’ God says,
‘I will pour out my Spirit upon all people.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy.
Your young men will see visions,
and your old men will dream dreams.
In those days I will pour out my Spirit
even on my servants—men and women alike—
and they will prophesy.

You honestly can comprehend those verses? Do you realize that had to be translated into English from an ancient language? Do you realize the original author's ideas may not have been accurately captured, and could have been lost in translation? Do you know who the original author is, and whether he/she was not mentally ill? Isn't it foolish to place any validity in obscure texts by unidentifiable authors?

Seeing the future is remembering
the past.
We can't all believe the same way.
There are some of us who believe
that birth and death are merely the front
and back ends of a quantum leap.
Thus, the effort we put into life today,
shapes our tomorrow.

We all are, just by being here.
But of course if we are unaware of the prophecy then does it have any power over us, or is it more to do with those that do know about and believe in it and their faith than ours?
Who knows?

It would be the best choice of a sign for a prediction of this kind. Not a far stretch of the imagination.
