    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Mar 23, 2020
    based on 5 ratings
     | 5,728 views

    2020 was a year full of Prophecies about the ending of the Covid-19 pandemic, as well as the USA Presidential election, that can be added to the proliferation of so-called prophecies over the last 30+ years that were completely wrong.
