   That isn't time compression. It's a dream that covers a week of events. You   
   remember a week, but do you recall what you had for breakfast on the third   
   day of that dream? In other words, there is a vast difference between the   
   memory of a week, and the week itself. Therefore, it is in no way   
   supernatural to have a dream that seems to span a significant amount of   
   time. Such a dream doesn't even take 8 hours to have; 30 minutes is   
   sufficient.

   If, and only if, their prophecies are fulfilled. And even then, it will be   
   largely a matter of interpretation, since the wording of biblical prophecies   
   is woefully nebulous.   
   They have a habit of "being fulfilled" every few generations, actually, when   
   the faithful manage to interpret them to fit current events.
