Well, what is surprising about such prediction?

If you read the reviews of futurists, there are many many misses. I focus more on what is actually happening that I can see than what someone predicted.

Either Jesus rose from the dead or he did not.
If he did not Christianity is 100% false
If he did and you do not receive him as you Lord and Savior your
going to hell forever

Ergo, I will not go to hell forever.

These traditions have a huge body of religious texts. They are not regarded as "holy" in the sense of being revelations, but they are treated with reverence by many followers.

I know. I didn't mean to imply otherwise.

But they're not equivalents to the Bible or Qur'an.

I understand. But something written in the 1950's predicting t he Internet?

"A mechanism of world inter-communication will be devised, embracing the whole planet, freed from national hindrances and restrictions, and functioning with marvellous swiftness and perfect regularity." (Shoghi Effendi)

It was pretty obvious by that point that such a system would come about.

Of course, we're still struggling with the whole "national hindrances and restrictions" and "marvellous swiftness and perfect regularity" things...

If there's one region of the world that would cause God to be sad, it's the Middle-East. We've seen pictures of the lion laying down with the lamb, but that is a sad region of the world.

Some Gods are sad by it, other Gods love the situation. Still others are apathetic.

I won't presume to say which Gods feel what, though. It'd be too easy to project my own feelings on the matter onto them.

“Muhammad, the Apostle of God, bewaileth, in the all-highest Paradise, their acts." " (Baha'u'llah)

A day shall be witnessed by My people," their own traditions condemn them, "whereon there will have remained of Islám naught but a name, and of the Qur'án naught but a mere appearance. The doctors of that age shall be the most evil the world hath ever seen. Mischief hath proceeded from them, and on them it will recoil.”

Excerpt From: Effendi, Shoghi. “The Promised Day Is Come.” Bahá’í eBooks

The second quote is a well known tradition in Islam.

I came across that quote about the state of Islam in a book of Hadith of Muhammad.

All religions go through birth and death. Nothing here is permanent like the Buddha said. That's why new Buddhas or teachers are sent to us when the old teachings have become corrupted by man. Islam appears to be going through that stage now. I feel sorry for Muslims who are being blamed for all the crimes they didn't commit and I stand by them.
