When does Nostradamus predicts the world to end?
Okay, yes the Mayans did predict the world would end on December 21, 2012. Does this mean that everybody should go crazy believing them? No, because there have been thousands of predictions for the world to end, and none of them have come true. So why believe this one? Everybody can believe what they want, but just remember that this is just another prediction out of over a thousand that are going to fail.
(plus, those who believe the movie 2012, are not the smartest of people, its a movie so dont be afraid, The Knowing is another movie where people predict the end of the world and that was a prediction that would occur on October something in 2008).

My opinion is most of his predictions are too vague meaning they could apply to many events. Look for yourself and make up your own mind.
Nostradamus was famous for making what?
A series of "predictions" in the form of "quatrains" that were so vague and all encompassing that every year we get to hear how all those predictions applied to what just happened.
Don't worry if you missed it. Next year we'll learn that all the predictions were for this year.
Was Nostradamus a real person?
A:
People can use scientific methods to predict probable events and outcomes, and can extrapolate past events to estimate likely future events, but no one has ever been able simply to prophecy future events. Anyone who claims otherwise is a fake, including Nostradamus. The writings of Nostradamus are couched in such obscure and ambiguous terms that someone can always read into them prophecies of events in our our time, but the same passage can be read by another person as an infallible prophecy of a different event that occurred or will occur at another time or place.
No.
Nostradamus's quatrains have been subject to re-interpretations for centuries, but the fact remains that his verse is so open ended to interpretation that numerous events have been suspected for most verses, and most have root in his contemporary experience.
Did Nostradamus believe in God?
Yes. Nostradamus was a Christian. His relationship with the Church, as a prophet and healer, was excellent, although he was briefly imprisoned because he had published his 1562 almanac without the prior permission of a bishop, contrary to a royal decree.
AnswerNostradamus was born into a Jewish home, but his parents and himself converted to Catholicism. It does appear that for some of his life, he was fairly religious and active in his faith; but, after the death of his first wife and their 2 children- which, though he had helped to save other plague victims thru making a type of Vit D supplement (& the like), he was unable to save his wife and their children.-
After this loss, it appears that his healthy curiosity of Astronomy & the Earth, he begun to dig deeper, and into the occult. He began doing private meditation or sayances (sp?) sessions. This is when he began going in the direction of the occult & away from G-d. Doing these sessions, opens one up to evil/ possession/ and to evil prophecies (prophesies not from G-d). The Bible does state that the Devil has been given enough leash to give prophecies- and even though some may be accurate (to entice others into believing), they can't be trusted. And the importance of truly knowing the word of G-d and His warnings to ensure one isn't tricked.
Nostradamus may have believed that his revelations were given by G-d, or he may have completely turned away from G-d in search for the same thing that caused the original fall- infinite knowledge. This, is a bit harder to find a straight answer.
Be sure to keep a critical mind, and allow for honest research to lead you, rather than, ones OWN perception (like the response below). In today's world, in can take some time of sifting through misinformation/ opinions, and out right lies, in order to find &/ or piece together the full truth. Be accepting of new information, look for disproving & supporting info, and always remain critical. And most of all, leave ones ego at the door. Our ego/ pride can prevent truth from coming to us more than anything else.

ANSWER:Nostradamus did not behave as if he believed in God as a real entity as described in the Bible. If he did believe, he did not believe sufficiently to heed God's words. Neither did he communicate with God since all of his prophecies failed wheras ones from God were fulfilled. Also, Nostradamus used divinition and other occultish practises forbidden in the Bible. Neither did he reveal the name of his deity.What did Nostradamus predict would happen in 2012?
Some have interpreted Nostradamus's work to point to the theory that the world would end on December 31, 2012. This prediction is based off an ancient Mayan calendar.
Did Nostradamus help with the black plague?
I just watched a biography on Nostradamus. He actually graduated as a physician at the time when the black plaque was happening. He didn't believe in blood letting like most doctors of his time and when he went into a city he made them clear the bodies and make sure the waterways were kept clean. He believed in cleanliness and he treated people with a rose and rose hip lozenges he made himself which was Vitamin C. That in itself was beyond the other doctors of that time.

It's very difficult to know, since many of his predictions were worded so ambiguously that they could be made to apply to many different events at many different times. However, he IS said to have predicted the sinking of the Titanic, the rise of the Third Reich under Hitler, and the assassination of President John F.Kennedy. He is also said to have foretold the advent of the motor car, development of the atomic bomb, and the Premiership of Margaret Thatcher.
What was the cause of nostradamus death?
Standing up when you have found him.
Nostradamus as you know predicted his death the night before he died, and people believe that he died standing.
He was found on the ground, NOT standing up. There's no way to know if he died standing up, but it's doubtful.
Neither. The art of precognition is not exact. If your predictions are proven correct it is unnecessary to adjust either your prediction or the observations.

What was Nostradamus' prediction with the Lord of Terror?
His prediction was that the world was going to end in 2012, due to world war III. But another prediction was that the third antichrist by the name of Mabus was going to become in power in the middle east. But the thing is, is that Mabus=sudaM backwards and sudam is another name for Saddam Hussein. -Allie Parker

Will the world end in 2012 according to nostradamus?
No it is just another ordinary year and an ordinary day (21st December 2012)
Any one of his "predictions" could be used to support that belief; they are sufficiently ambiguous and vague that whichever event in human history you chose, there would be at least several references to it in his works.
