Do you want to know the future?

Back in the ancient world, the prophet Cassandra would supposedly predict the future, but only in prophetic language, so making sense of her words was difficult. This lead to people disbelieving her, even though her words meant true. There are prophets like her today, but the same disbelief comes upon them, too. This is because people don't want to believe that someone else might have a  supernatural power. We think that being an oracle could never be possible, but how would we know?  However, we can change that disbelief factor. If you put the time in to understand what they are saying, you might be able to predict and prepare for what is coming in the future. Plus, even if the prophets are speaking falsely, you've got nothing to lose listening to them. As my point shows, if someone claims to be a prophet or oracle, at least listen to what they are saying, because you might know what the future will tell you!

  2. I agree with what you are saying but I don't see the lesson learned in here and even if we do listen to all prophets then we could all become very paranoid about all this bad stuff but if we can ask them about things that we know will happen to see if they are really a prophet. Now what kind of test do you think we could do to see if they are a real prophet?
