Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Saturday, January 23, 2010

"The number of earthquakes experienced since Sunday at Yellowstone National Park has risen to 901, with two of the strongest occurring late Wednesday, according to scientists monitoring the situation.

They say the swarm is likely the result of a slip in pre-existing faults and not a sign of a potential volcanic eruption. However, they continue to monitor the situation.

The largest swarm recorded was 3,156 earthquakes during a three- month period starting Oct. 4, 1985, according to the university."

Is this one of those signs of the apocalypse, too?

Obviously the military is testing their earthquake technology.

Surely caused by the chemtrails.

We haven't had a good chemtrail thread in awhile... but douchemark's apparently back from nuthouse so we might be in for a treat.

you been there too?

I volunteer there, mainly scrubbing LR's fecal fingerpainting off of the walls. Until Douchemark got released, you'd usually find that bald blumpkin muttering to himself in a corner while rocking back and forth in the fetal position.

When I'm feeling mischevious, I set the homepage of all the ward's computers to prisonplanet... the patients love it.

Zombie - yes, Mark 13 - natural disasters have increased more than 4X in the past twenty years according to a report by the UK charity OXFAM - they found the earth is heaving from approximately 500 natural disasters a year comared with 120 a year in the early 1980's.

The Lord told us that "when you see these events occurring to lift up your heads as redemption draws near (paraphrased).". He has always tried to get the attention of stubborn people through signs in nature.

Even Christians are covering their eyes and ears today because they love the creation more than the Creator.

What we have here on earth is but a fleeting moment compared to what He has in store for those who heed and love his Word. And, frankly I don't like my duty to have to report this to you and do resist at every opportunity.

"Compared" not "comared" - BB won't let me go back into the text here and make corrections!

Jesus didn't tell us. He told his disciples what they should expect. That was 2,000 years ago. Nothing happened. Every generation of Christians seems to have the bad habit of thinking the Bible was written for their generation.

Yellowstone is a well know super volcano. It will blow when internal pressures force the magma through the earth's crust. An imaginary God can't control it.

He used natural disasters to awaken the people and bring them to repentance - America is Nineveh and I see no true repentance left in this nation. I will continue to pray we will change our ways and for those who are lost.

"those who are lost."

Yeah sure he did. What kind of God is that, one who destroys to teach a lesson to the unbelievers?

Man that is fucked up. A sensible person would say that God is a murderer to achieve his own ends. Who would want to worship that? A fool maybe.

Get real, Nanc. The US is following the pattern of rise and fall of empires of the past. The Asian nations on the rise are atheistic and Hindu. Do you want to argue like the Prophets that God empowered his enemies to punish his chosen people?

It's just further evidence of global warming. So yes, it's also one of those signs of the apocalypse.

Happy extinction.

That has to be the most egregious case of 'missed the point' I ever saw.

Damn, Ray, you are almost as stupid as cranc.

Anyway there's no way Al Gore will allow yellowstone to blow until it is forced to pay the tax. Until then it stays capped.

If that was aimed at Nanc, it was the most egregious case of bad communication I ever saw. You're one of the most noxious insulters on the site. That's what assholes do when they have nothing intelligent to say.

Funny, seems like it would be more effective in grabbing the attention of ignorant fools.

What kind of God is that, one who destroys to teach a lesson to the unbelievers?

One not worth a goddamn minute of your time or a goddamn cent of your savings.

Would a small yield nuclear device--perhaps obtained by terrorists and shoved down Old Faithful--be able to initiate an eruption?

Could be the plot for a future espionage/action adventure flick--or something worse.

"Or a goddamn cent of your savings...."

So, are you a practiconer of anything?

Would a small yield nuclear device--perhaps obtained by terrorists and shoved down Old Faithful--be able to initiate an eruption?

It would need to be pretty big, and you'd have to shove it in pretty deep. Probably bigger and deeper than anything humans can muster.

I don't have any numbers to back me up, but I suspect that all the nuclear bombs in the world don't add up to the power of Yellowstone when it blows. The magma under Yellowstone is formed from granite. It is highly viscous compared to the thinner iron and iron/silicon magmas. So it takes that much more pressure to make it blow. Earth would be covered in dust, not to mention many years of weak sunlight.

That's some messed up stuff right there. Do you really believe that God, having given man the most important thing, freedom of choice, would slaughter them if they made the wrong choices? Could you kill your own child for making a bad choice or choosing a lifestyle that you diagreed with?

I don't want to slam your belief in God, because I also believe in God (although, by your standards, I don't). But I do want to tell you that you are very brain-washed by local and artistic interpretations of biblical teachings. None of this shit you are talking about has anything to do with physical sciences. You are only an arrogant american who thinks life and consciousness was created in anglo-saxon, judea-christian america in the past few centuries.

I'll bet there were some folks in Pompeii, in 79 AD, who thought God was punishing them also, but here you are 2 thousand years later, still carrying your banner that say, 'the end is near'.

Nanc is a buffoon. It is best not to take her seriously.

This is the Thread where the Humble Devout warn of the imminent ----- only later to claim their Prayer, and only "their" effort, prevented what never materialized!

How Convenient ---- and Vain!

But I like how they clamor to embrace science when it dove tails with their fantasy of exaggerated self-importance!

Its some really fucked up shit!

YEAH!

Just like That ------ Except the Punishment generally doesn't entail the Burning of Their Stuffed Animals, The Decapitation of their Pets and or the Crushing/killing of their Friends!

Yes I often see loving parents crushing their children to death with tons of concrete for being disobedient.

Then stop. I don't enjoy watching an otherwise nice person make an idiot of herself on a regular basis.

Hey, can't we just drill a couple small holes down to the magma and relieve some of that bottled up pressure? :-D
Gotta' put some Noxzema on the state before it turns into a big-ass zit man!

Do that and the whole thing will blow. If I recall correctly a caldera volcano erupts when the pressure is released due to the gases in the liquid magma.
