The Boy who cried Wolf – and how it applies to EVERY failed prediction and prophecy

reply to post by mileslong54


Some people may have flagged it for its creativity and ingenious/outrageous connections that were made.

Some of us appreciated the effort, and the structure of the OP. Something only rarely done lately here on ATS.

Some of us can indulge in the 'what ifs' even though they are highly unlikely, if only for the entertainment.

You may have a distorted view of the purpose of the star and flag counters.

Don't blame the wolf he is just a scapegoat.

With all that is happening in the world today, I think the lesson to learn is to be prepared but do not let a possibility rule your life.

It is like making sure you have everything in your car in case of a flat tire. It may or may not happen depending on several variables. But you still need to be prepared for it so you do not end up sitting on the side of the road waiting for a tow truck because of a simple flat tire.

Panic is the death of reason.
