Prophets, in the modern scense of the word have never existed. Jonah was no prophet; for his prophecy of Nineveh failed. Every honest man is a Prophet. He utters his opinion of both provate and public matters. Thus: If you go on So, the result is So. He never says such a thing shall happen let you do what you will. A Prophet is a Seer, not an Arbitrary Dictator. Every genius, every hero, is a prophet
