From what I've learned, especially the old testament, it isn't really to be taken in literally for every single event that happened. I remember someone telling me that what's more important in the bible than the actual small details are the lessons you can learn from it, which I believe is very important.

you know what cold reading is don't you Mark? they are general lines that is used to seemingly predict the future but are actually correct for everyone, imo, the Bible is full of those lines, but instead of talking about a person, they talk about a period of time and they talk about basic... philosophies, i could be wrong, but that's my impression of the Bible

But yeah, prophecies have nothing to do with cold reading, it's just logic and probability. For instance, I can now predict that there will be a third World War and sometime in the future I will be right. If not, the world came to an end too soon. |

lol, i messed up, it was quite early in the morning so instead of " seemingly read you mind" in my head i typed "seemingly predict the future"( English is my second language, so things sometimes gets tangled up in my head). It's just like that time i mistook a double face card for a double back card in my head( cost me an HOUR arguing back and forth with a friend before i realized i mistook them for the other one)
