Appearing on God Knows with hosts Cindy and Mike Jacobs, Christian minister Rebecca Greenwood explained that she first became aware of her gift of prophecy when she discovered she had the ability to predict what was going to happen in movies.
-snip-
Greenwood then went on to describe becoming aware of her prophetic powers, explaining that, not only did she predict that killer bees would be coming to the U.S. from Africa, but that when she went to the movies with her husband she could predict what was going to happen next.
And Im really good at going to movies. And I didnt know why. And lots of times, we could be sitting, watching a movie, and Id look at Greg even before I understood I was a prophet, and Im like, This is gonna happen. This is gonna happen. This is gonna be the outcome, she explained. And lots of times, he would tell me, Dont tell me whats gonna happen at the movie. If you understand before its happening, I dont wanna know before it happens.

(23,720 posts)In fact I often feel I could write the scripts. Silly minister, so damn full of herself. It takes no special gift to predict what will happen in a freaking movie.

No shaming here...

(23,720 posts)Typical evening involves him dropping in, rolling a blunt or two, cracking open a couple of beers and going over future movie scripts.
Damn blunts though, I keep telling Jesus that I prefer old fashioned ZigZags when imbibing in a little herbal refreshment. Can't seem to make him understand that tobacco wraps tend to ruin the taste of some good Kush. I think he's just worried that he get caught driving with the stuff.

(46,369 posts)She's really good at predicting natural and un-natural disasters.
AFTER they happen.
Her "prophesies" are like the ones in supermarket tabloids.
Really vague. "A beloved actor will get sick, and maybe die."
Or really obvious. "There will be trouble in the Middle East."
Every time, and I do mean EVERY time these people make a specific "prophesy," it comes out dead wrong.
Remember Hal Lindsey (currently wrting at WND) and his book "The Late Great Planet Earth?"
We were supposed to have a nuclear war with the Soviet Union and Red China, 30 years ago.
Gee, what happened?

(20,606 posts)I remember his book was a big deal when I was a kid!
Does he still pump out predictions?

(24,380 posts)I'm betting she really thinks she got the short end of the "prophesy" stick, there.
"Waddya mean MOVIE PLOTS? You couldn't have given me...oh...I don't know.....Stock Market closing prices 6 months in advance? The ability to see where a fatal car accident would happen? POWERBALL NUMBERS? NOOOOOO...I get Movie Plots. Might as well have given me Dust Bunny locating, for crying out loud."

(7,638 posts)Most movies are so scripted that it is pretty easy to predict what is going to happen. I do that all the time and I definitely am not infused with divine inspiration.
