Earthquakes on the rise!

Revelation 6:12

I looked when He broke the sixth seal, and there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth made of hair, and the whole moon became like blood;

Everyone knows about California's imminent splash into the Pacific ocean (LOL) but even those in the heart of the country aren't safe. Read on about growign recent earthquake activity in the midwest and Reno, Nevada:

"In the 17 years we’ve been monitoring the ocean through hydrophone recordings, we’ve never seen a swarm of earthquakes in an area such as this..."

Researchers have recorded more than 600 earthquakes in the last 10 days off the central Oregon coast in an area not typically known for a high degree of seismic activity.

And the New Madrid seismic zone in the Midwest:

And lest anyone forget, there is also the worrisome Yellowstone (Park) Caldera:

I've been hearing about what could be the "end of the world as we know it" if the Yellowstone caldera erupts full force, and it ain't pretty:

excerpt: Short only of meteorite impacts, a supervolcano explosion has the capability of reducing our grand civilization to a whimpering mass of starving creatures. Lying in the path of a massive eruption is the breadbasket of America, that in a very few years will also be sustaining a large fraction of the expanding world population. Cutting off that food supply will create a famine that the world has never seen, especially since most of the crops around the world would have a hard time surviving due to the extreme global cooling caused by the eruption. Wars would break out, hundreds of millions would likely die (if not more), and the world order will be forever shifted. The United States would be crippled, its vast wealth nothing without the sustenance provided by the land. Its neighbors, Canada and Mexico will be facing a crisis as waves of American emigrants struggle to find a new home. We talk about a post-9/11 world as if we’ve experienced a real catastrophe. Just imagine a post-Yellowstone world.

450-odd children seized from LDS camp

While I don't agree with their lifestyle or habits, and I DO feel they are a cult, as they do not adhere to true Biblical teachings, this has been a very challenging story for the country and the world, and myself.

To have so many children ripped from their mothers by SWAT teams in riot gear, with guns and a TANK, and the fact that the courts have now forced their adoptions by those other than families outside the LDS compound, and as this is the only life the children have ever known, this event will undoubtedly be the most tramatic and psychologically damaging thing that will ever occur in their young lives.

I feel that our government did this completely the WRONG way, and believe that they have now created long-term mental distress in over 450 children, PLUS their mothers and fathers, from which they may never recover. That's 450 children who will need long-term counseling, will always be resentful, will probably act out in all sorts of ways, causing even more damage to society overall. All in all, one hell of a mess.

THAT BEING SAID...they are now doing DNA testing on all of the children, for obvious reasons. So when a story like this comes along, it makes me hope and pray all the more that nothing like this has happened in that compound, because this is some sick sick stuff:

sadly there's another similarly sick story from Oz:
