the number 1961, upside down, is 1961 again. \nIn 6009 it will happen again (4003 years from now).

I am not sure that if there would be recorded  a year called 10000 in the future... I think it would be an optimistic guess to imagine 3000's... Don't forget!       The Judgement Day is approaching day by day... Well, if i supposed to say, human will be naked at the year 10000...

Sadly, there is no equivilant that is older.  Anyway, traditions have to start somewhere.  And Christmas was started to distract people from Winter Solstice Celebrations.\n\nPatty "Fabricated in the 60's, too" Surrey

The time will not be the same.

No.  They've been predicting it forever now.  See the link below for just how many times.  Every generation thinks it is, pointing to passages in the bible that match something going on.  Hasn't happened yet and won't happen.

Old age, the Earth will gradually become uninhabitable over a very long period of time until the time comes when the few million people that are left only have legends about how the planet once supported billions.\nNuclear war,  pandemics, possible global warming would be as hiccups along the way.

i don't know what the final outcome in iraq will be, but i have made this very point to people i know. i heard the same thing in 1969 myself. we were in an unpopular war then, gas prices were soon to rise, people, for the most part, were becoming disillusioned with our government, jobs were soon to start drying up and many were to move overseas, interest rates were starting to rise. sounds like deja vu all over again today, doesn't it?

First off, there was no year zero, the years go straight from 1 BC to 1 AD.\n\nI'm not sure there was a whole lot of science going on in the "western" world at that time - you may want to investigate what was going on in China or other areas.

The worst limitation is that it is not forward looking. It cannot predict the future, only analyze the past, compare and contrast the present with the past.

To soon to tell.  A lot can happen between now and 11/08

Without a doubt the Great Drought will return. Nobody can say when, but exactly the same weather systems exist today as existed then, so one day the same pattern must recur. It might be next year, it might not be for another 1000 years, but it will recur.

I agree with the first answer.  That's nearly impossible to predict.  I have this book from the 70's that tried to predict where we would be by now and they had moon bases, flying cars, giant space stations, etcetra.  So they couldn't even figure out where we would be in 30 years let alone 1000.

I don't think it'll ever be fully reconciled, but it will be closer than it is now.  It seems the pendulum of thought is swinging back toward the dark ages at the moment :(

It is too soon, the things that are happening don't happen overnight.  The changes that are taking place will happen more slowly, but I would say that within 5 years you will see some drastic changes in the US.\nWhen they approved abortion in the 70's I don't think that they ever thought that the USA alone would ever abort 50 million babies, nor that they would have late term abortions.   You see that from the 70's to now didn't happen overnight.. \n\nThe Gay parades (answering your question)  Have you ever seen unedited film of them??  It is illegal to show on TV.  I saw unedited film of tha San Francisco gay parade one year.  People were completely naked, not all and not the majority, but people were on floats and grabbing their blank and showing it to the crowd.  I say how can they do this in public??  But the police were there and did nothing.. Our society would never have allowed this before, but now??  It has all happened slowly, so wait a while, you will live to see hell on earth as God lets man do what he wants to do.  Not to attack you personally, but you (and others) have showed your approval of these things in your questions and answers.  You will also see what the results are of what you have approved.  I don't think that you will like it, but who knows.    Not to attack, but put this in perspective.  Give it a little time 5 years more or less.. that will be 2011, but the science guy says 2012 is a major problem..  Maybe it will self destruct.

No. Officially it's 1946-1964.
