We are always full of illusions about the future, so we often want to predict what will happen in the future. If anyone predicts accurately, people will give him the title of "prophet". It is worth mentioning that there are many excellent prophets in the world, but none of them were accurately predicted by an American railway engineer. What exactly did the railway engineer predict? If you also want to know the answer, let Bian Xiao reveal it below.

Before revealing the secret, Bian Xiao will tell you the famous prophets in the west, among which Nocha Danmas, born in 1503, is a French Jew and is considered as the greatest prophet in16th century. Nocha Danmas predicted many historical events, such as "French Revolution" and "World War II", but he also failed, such as the end of the 20th century.

After Nostradamus, a famous prophet jeane dixon appeared in the United States. She is known as the most mysterious woman in the world in the 20th century, and also known as the "American witch". In the 1940s, jeane dixon predicted that Truman would be elected as the 33rd president, which was realized in 1945, but she also miscalculated. For example, she predicted that there would be a third world war in 1958.

For jeane dixon and Nostradamus, although they are prophets, they are also earthlings after all. They can't predict things beyond the earth, but Boriska is different. Boriska was born in Russia on 1996. At the age of eight, he said that he was a Martian. He told the history of Mars clearly and predicted that the earth would be like Mars, but experts found that his description was not accurate.

In addition to the above three professional prophets, there is also an amateur prophet in the United States, whose amateur level is even higher than that of professional prophets. According to the records, the amateur prophet's name is John Warkins, and his job is a railway engineer in Pennsylvania. 1900, Warkins made a lot of scientific predictions for the U.S. government to prepare for the production plan a hundred years later (2000). Warkins published his prediction in an American magazine-"What will happen in the next hundred years", and more than half of it has been realized:

First: the birth of mobile phones.

Warkins wrote, "In 2000, wireless telephone networks spread all over the world, and husbands on Atlantic ships could also call their wives in Chicago." Obviously, Warkins's "wireless phone" is the current "mobile phone", which appears in 1973.

Second: digital photos.

Although Warkins didn't mention "digital photos", we can know from his interpretation that he described digital photos, such as "color photos will be able to copy all natural colors". What an advanced prediction, you know, taking black and white photos was a luxury at that time.

Third: spy plane.

The spy plane is a new thing, but Warkins also predicted it. He wrote, "Balloons or aircrafts carry cameras, or telescopes to photograph and observe enemies from the air". Obviously, this is the spy plane now, which plays a great role in the military battlefield.

Fourth: War tanks.

Warkins also predicted that "an armored fortress walking on wheels can gallop at the speed of a train on the battlefield", among which "armored fortress" is a modern tank. It can be seen that Warkins's understanding of war is still very rich, otherwise the prediction of war weapons will not be accurate.

Fifth: American population.

Warkins also boldly predicted that after 100, the population of the United States would be about 350-500 million, which proved that he was right again. In 2000, the population of the United States exceeded 300 million. If calculated according to the growth rate, the population of the United States in 2000 was 654.38+0 billion, which shows that Warkins's algorithm is unusual.

Although Warkins predicted many things after 100 years, there are still some predictions that have not happened:

For example, Warkins predicts that university education will be free after 100 years, but it turns out that university education in many areas is still charged, and even the cost is getting higher and higher. Therefore, people want to know why Warkins made such a prediction. Perhaps he thought that with the development of society and the continuous improvement of national economic level, people would receive free education, but he did not consider the population explosion. If free education will become a huge economic burden for the country, only a few countries or regions have free education.

Apart from education, Warkins predicted that English letters such as Q, C and X would disappear, and it turns out that they have not disappeared until now. Experts found that in Warkins's era, there were not many English words containing Q, C and X, and there were many substitutable words, so Warkins thought Q, C and X were redundant. Later, with the rapid development of social economy, the scope of people's communication has been expanding, the probability of using vocabulary is increasing, and even many new words have been born.

Warkins's forecast covers all aspects. He said that many insects will disappear after 100 years, such as mice, flies and mosquitoes. Now we all know that none of these insects have disappeared, but it is a fact that the number has decreased. In Warkins's view, with the improvement of people's living environment, many harmful insects naturally become extinct, but Warkins neglected an important issue, namely the stability of the ecosystem, because even pests are part of the ecosystem, so they have the function of maintaining the stability of the chí system and will not be easily extinct.

From the above examples, we should know that prediction is not a superstitious and messy idea, but a scientific method to study what will happen in the future. Since it is a forecast, there must be success and failure. If it becomes a science to explain prediction, if it fails, it means that it is not well thought out.

The name of a gentler witch?

Women who make a living by praying for others, casting spells and divining are called witches. They collect money from it and profit from it, often with feudal superstition. But despite this, this profession has always been crazy, especially in rural areas and economically and culturally backward places, and it is also very common. It's a bit like someone who knows divination abroad.

Witches are also called fortune tellers or feng shui masters.
