you can't deny his prediction because it really happened.
what do you think about this ?

Nostradamus' predictions were usually pretty vague, and can easily be applied to lots of different occurences. Read his actual words and decide for yourself.

The only thing that Nostradamus ever "predicted" was the approximate size of his rear end at his time of death. I HOPE that you DON'T take this seriously because you are asking if you should. Well, DON'T. The world will end when it ends. For Christians, it will end when they are scooped up and go to heaven. For us atheists it ends for us when each of us dies and/or the sun goes nova in about 5 million years. Every darned "prophet" the world has ever known predicts the end of the world. Either the world doesn't end or it's predicted to end after his/her death. So, no matter what you read about Nostradamus, his ravings are just badly written stories that could use an edit by Edgar Allen Poe. Auntie Kookoo Edit: Note to Myself above: I defy you to tell me that these disasters haven't been happening CONSTANTLY for the past 2000 years. For example, which hurricane along the coast signals the end of the world? One from this year? Maybe Katrina? There was a doozy in 1907, was that the one? I understand that most of the state of Florida was underwater from one in 1836. Was that the one? Do please stop believing everything that you read. I know you're young, but common sense will come eventually. -AK

Nostradamus's predictions were in general. His predictions may be right but never precise. We project it in a particular way after something happens that gives more credit to Nostradamus. If all or some of his predictions were precise, don't you think we will try to prevent it? If we can prevent any tragedy, Nostradamus will be very happy that with his guidance we have made this world a little better place to live.

Please quote the prediction (give exact words and source) and THEN show how that was fulfilled by 9/11.
We will then discuss if his words are equivalent to, say, Isaiah's or another of the prophets.
After THAT, you will have to say why you think Nostradamus is a possible equivalent of Jesus Christ.

he didn't predict any of those assumptions we've made thus far.
He actually predicted the rebirth of Christ and ALL of the hardships he has to face... And each city that he mentions has a specific signifance and relevance to Christs life and not literally meaning the city but instead the meaning behind the cities existence... like if they are famous or well known for a signifcant event in history that would relate to Christ's life... it's difficult to explain... but it's all directly related to Christ himself... he could care less about the sept 11th attacks.
The end of the world is abit more important, wouldn't you say?

As you say we cannot deny that there is something there.
I myself do believe that there are psychics, but not all that say they are, are psychics.
I do not remember what verse, but the Bible says that the old will dream dreams and the young will have visions.
I do not trust the fortune tellers that are selling their supposed gifts. I think a true psychic will try to help without financial gain.

It was not predicted by Nostradamus. Double check your source with snopes.com.

I am a born again christian.If you read about him and his predictions you will see that he was right on target with alot of his prose. He knew about Hitler all he had wrong was one letter in the name he wrote Histler. John Kennedy's death, wrote their was a man hiding in a nearby bush with a gun and about Jack Ruby a journalist that would be present that day also with a gun.

I don’t think it is all that difficult to match a vague prediction to an event, after the event has occurred.

Bet you a gazillion pounds/dollars/whatever that he didn't predict anything of the sort.
Produce the actual quatrains in question so we can see how much of a stretch it is.
