Nostradamus Effect
Premieres Monday @ 9pm, 6 September 2010
Synopsis:
For thousands of years, every culture has generated dark prophecies portending doomsday scenarios when the world will come to a cataclysmic end. THE NOSTRADAMUS EFFECT presents the most chilling prophecies generated over time by closely examining today’s global events and relating them back to a particular prophecy.
A broad range of experts will deconstruct the prophecies of Nostradamus, others contained in the bible, within mythology, hieroglyphs and other ancient texts to identify remarkable correlations between today’s unfolding events and a particular prediction.
Science will be used to provide evidence supporting the possible association between these prophecies and corresponding future scenarios. Also, each episode will explore the connection between the prophecy in question with prophecies from other cultures portending mysteriously similar end-of-day scenarios.
The Third Antichrist, 6 Sept
History s most acclaimed prophet, Nostradamus, saw the arrival of three antichrists that would plague mankind. But who are they? When will they come and what disasters will they cause? Can we decode the visions of Nostradamus in time to ward off a coming apocalypse? Some say at least two of the prophesied antichrists have already appeared.
Clues hidden in Nostradamus’ writings point to Napoleon Bonaparte, one of history s most bloodthirsty tyrants and the Emperor of France, as the first antichrist. Shockingly precise quatrains also seem to point to Adolph Hitler, the 20th century s most notorious madman, as the next, and even more terrifying second antichrist.
Da Vinci’s Armageddon, 13 Sept
Was Leonardo Da Vinci, one of history s great philosophers, artists and engineers, also one of its greatest prophets? And did he envision world destruction of such biblical proportions that it haunted him till the end of his days? Clues hidden in Da Vinci s paintings, his re-discovered prophetic riddles and the events of his life now suggest that he, too, was influenced by The Nostradamus Effect a supernatural warning of impending doom as punishment for mankind s wicked ways.
Extinction: 2012, 20 Sept
Did an ancient South American culture predict that time would end in a violent apocalypse, with an expiration date of December 21, 2012? The Mayans created an elaborate astronomical calendar called The Long Count, which stops abruptly in 2012. This date, which is also the winter equinox, coincides with an incredibly rare galactic alignment that happens once every 26,000 years. What did the Mayans think would happen when their calendar ended? And were they joined by other cultures from different parts of the world and in different centuries all pointing to 2012 as a calamitous end time?
