In January 2014 that old Christian scammer, Pat Robertson, went up onto the mountain top to commune with god and he came back with a series of (god given) prophecies for 2014.
Original video here:
Let's see how god's prophecies turned out:
1. The world will be in chaos
FAILED Not specific enough. Pat deliberately uses this vague language so that his followers can point to any tiny incident and interpret it as a fulfillment of the prophesied "chaos". As it happened, nothing unusual occurred during 2014 and the prophecy failed.
2. A credit crisis caused by China
FAILED
3. The Iranians will have a nuclear device before the end of the year
FAILED
4. Republicans will win control of the Congress
CORRECT - but nearly every US political pundit knew this would happen. Hell, even I thought it would happen (and I live on the other side of the world!).
5. The president will give up government to go surfing in Hawaii.
FAILED (Even his female sidekick couldn't suppress an incredulous snigger when she heard that bit of nonsense)
6. There will be a great rule of god
FAILED
7. Christians will do extraordinary things.
FAILED Not specific enough. So vague that almost any incident could be interpreted as fulfillment and therefore the prophecy is worthless.
8. There will be tremendous healing miracles
FAILED Not specific enough. So vague that almost any incident could be interpreted as fulfillment and therefore the prophecy is worthless.
9. Prayers will be answered
FAILED Not specific enough. So vague that almost any incident could be interpreted as fulfillment and therefore the prophecy is worthless.
10. It will be the greatest year in the history of the church
FAILED Not specific enough. So vague that almost any incident could be interpreted as fulfillment and therefore the prophecy is worthless.
11. Islam is going to be in retreat.
FAILED
