Why are so many people interested in Nostradamus?

Since I have been allowed to understand Nostradamus, for the purpose of sharing what I have found with others, I have found myself between two opposing views about Nostradamus. One view is from those who disdain religion, for a myriad of reasons, but love the thought that Nostradamus was some Merlin-like human being that unlocked the secrets of the universe with his own big brain (and perhaps some secret society of alchemists and astrologers), and they love elbowing with such types, hoping some magic will rub off on them. Those people spit venom when I suggest that Nostradamus was a Prophet of Jesus Christ. Then, on the other hand, there are the "Christians" who have been raised to think of Nostradamus as spawned of Satan, because he was an astrologer, thus a false prophet. Those people curse me with condemnations by suggesting that Jesus or God would ever encounter another Prophet, after the Bible was hammered around the 4th century A.D.

The way I see it is simple. People today recognize the name Nostradamus, 443 years after his death, 454 years after the first edition of The Prophecies, and 506 years after his birth, not because anyone really knows anything about Nostradamus, but because God has kept the mystique alive. If you can grasp that concept, then you have a chance to understand what God instructed Nostradamus to write. If God, as the Spirit of Jesus the Messiah, told Nostradamus to write The Prophecies and his letters of explanation, it was with the ultimate purpose of being understood.

Ask yourself ... why are you interested in Nostradamus?
