How does a guy making a prediction make a fool of Christianity? That's like saying if I read a science textbook and then incorrectly predict flying cars by 2020

How does a guy making a prediction make a fool of Christianity? That's like saying if I read a science textbook and then incorrectly predict flying cars by 2020, that I have made a fool of science.
Jesus Himself said: "No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. As it was in the days of Noah, so will it be at the coming of the Son of Man. For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark. ... Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day on which your Lord will come. But understand this: If the homeowner had known in which watch of the night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into." (Matthew 24:36-43)
- bjt2n3904 7y agoGood point. I spoke too hastily. More specifically, brought great disrepute to Christianity, and gave others cause to mock it.
- xamuel 7y ago>cause to mock it You do realize you're talking about Christianity here, right? As in, people who worship a homeless man who was rejected by his own people, tortured, spat upon, and nailed to a cross beside common thieves. He died pitifully on that cross, naked and exposed. And you are saying that what gives cause to mock Christianity is ... some dude making idle predictions 2,000 years later??? "You will be hated by everyone on account of My name, but the one who perseveres to the end will be saved." (Matthew 10:22)
