Estimated Prophets: Nostradamus & Cayce

EPISODE 128 | Estimated Prophets: Nostradamus & Cayce

Even though almost none of the things that prophets say will happen actually do, we still persist in believing in the capability anyway. We do not like to change out minds very much. Two of the biggest prophets that still hold sway today over Western culture are Nostradamus and Edgar Cayce, and we’ll take a look at each one in turn.
