There are plenty of places to hide here mainly in Scotland which is where I'm off to if the worst were to happen,I'm not one for sitting and accepting my fate.

The Islamic State of Iraq & Syria isn't killing us with ideas. I'm just telling you what some ancient prophecies say my friend. They say WWIII will be started by Muhammad's followers and will be defeated when Russia and America join forces.
They don't really. That's just what people have interpretted them to say.
It's kind of like the whole "Nostradamus predicted 9/11". Such a good prediction they didn't know about it until AFTER 9/11.
You can attach meaning to any "predictions" to fit almost any world event. Doesn't make them true.

Ahhh, more stuff from Nostradamus the fortuneteller, I do remember the Orson Wells special on his predictions, it was back in 86 and the world was coming to an end by means of Halley's comet and also a Persian prince was going to unleash a nuclear war, so now thirty years later still waiting....

Mountains aren't buildings. Buildings are buildings. Mountains are mountains. To get the meaning of mountain to mean building you need to stretch what's said to fit what you need it to.
Now, if it had said "large building" or "tall building" or "towering building" it might have been more credible. But it didn't. It said mountain, which isn't man made or a building.
This is called grasping at straws to fit a narrative.

Respectfully, I disagree. They weren't called buildings in the 16th century. Perhaps he could have used castles instead of mountains, but he said man-made mountains. Skyscraper wasn't a term back then. How would you build a mountain in 1555?
