England and Denmark did not come "out of" the HRE. Neither of those two regions were ever under control of the imperial germans.

I'll admit I am not a bible scholar, but those "prophecies" look incredibly vague. How can you use them for evidence of a god?

He is deceived. He wants you to believe God makes prophecies in books but refuses to answer prayers for starving children.

God does not contradict Himself. He doesn't answer prayers or make prophecies in books. God is beyond this.

God is not pretend. God is as real as the sun on your face.
