Maybe with hindsight it does, but Ive never seen an actual prediction made with the "Bible Code" or any other interpretation of any religious text. Ever.

Theres only one thing that will force humanity to unite in the long term, and that would be conflict with something from outside. Possibly, after such a conflict, humanity would end up as one "nation" among others, but thats only moving the problem up a notch. The only thing that could unite this galactic society would be a conflict with something outside that.

Thus it has been since the days of warring villages millenia ago. Thus it always will be.

And I am well aware that the chances of interstellar conflict of any level is well below any chance you care to name.
