There really isn't any a direct method of predicting things.
But there are trends and habits that eliminate probabilities. Do you see a day world dominance would play a role in war? Based on the rise of powers, there is no possibility that every world power has the same conquest or agenda. There is also a 0% chance of science based advances being nullified, educating the masses halting, humanitary progression, societal progression, human advancing, or evolution stopping. Not 1 field or facet moving backward. No one will re-learn or even reassess major trends. No one will revisit error. All possibilities become narrowed, deepened, and further set in stone. Who lives and who dies to see these fringes becomes a necessity. Inventors, lawmen, and rebels start aligning the profitable and beneficial secrets of mankind, to put us all on a like-kind. The boundaries align to fewer possibilities with every rock-solid decision we make. It's good we have what's best in clear sight, which will always be the protection of God's children so we may reap what we sow. The hardest battles are within. And premonition comes from experience. Your dreams are the future.
