I am not sure if you are being serious or satirical, but I suspect some would take you ever so seriously and henceforth abjure for life all bar-codes, the entire Internet and any "Monster" beverage!
But not before finishing their last can of "Monster" fizz beeped by bar-code past the supermarket till, and coming on here to tell us what dangers we face, predicted by someone's dream some two thousand years ago...
There are no fulfilled prophecies in the Bible - not a single one. They're either fulfillment after the fact, where a later writer made sure that his "fulfillment" matched an earlier "prophecy," or they're so vague as to apply to anything, or they're number games that for some reason are only apparent after the thing happened.
You remind me of your Muslim brethren, who believe that the Quran "predicted" many modern scientific discoveries, like the speed of light, black holes, aerodynamics, etc.
People in every generation throughout history have done calculations and made arguments supposedly proving that their generation would be the last.

Tha's some crazy argument there! Reminds me of a Muslim claim: where ancient mention of a clot is said proof that the ancients understood biology before microscopes were even invented. Meanwhile, the truth has been discovered. It doesn't include God.
@SW-User Well, the Bible is thousands of years ahead of science when it says that the life of the flesh is in the blood, because science did not know this until the 19th century. Science had no idea until then that information is in the blood, but the Bible knew for thousands of years.
We all know that just by taking a blood sample, a doctor can evaluate the health issues and conditions of a person. And the discovery of healing through blood transfusions was a game changer. A blood transfusion replenishes lost blood. But long before science discovered about this biological truth, the Bible has already spoken of it.
For 3000 years bloodletting, which is the removal of blood (originated in ancient Egypt) was a popular way doctors treated most sicknesses. From cutting to lychees…the problem was too much blood. Imagine having a common cold and the doctor gets the knife out! Many people died from this horrible treatment method. George Washington, the first President of the United States happened to be one of them.
Now we know blood is vital for life like the Bible says and the blood tells us so much about our health and what is going on in our body. Instead of bloodletting we now do blood transfusions.
"For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul." Leviticus 17:11

@TommyDeZinna 'Life of the flesh is in the blood' isn't an impressive bit of information. Anyone of any time period can see that profuse blood loss results in death. To suggest that this is evidence for knowledge ahead of its time is to not value truth or honesty.
@TommyDeZinna Oh ok so now if someone has a common cold Dr gives them a blood transfusion. 🤣🤣 better stay away from the bar codes and monster drinks. 🤣🤣
