Mother Nature, Ticked Off
Over the past few days we've seen:
A) a catastrophic cyclone hit Burma, with a staggering death toll expected to reach over 100,000.
B) a 7.9 magnitude earthquake hit central China, with a current death toll of 12,000, which is also expected to climb.
C) a major volcanic eruption in Chile, displacing hundreds of people, and Mount Etna in Sicily seems poised to erupt again.
Are these natural disasters a sign of:
A) Global Warming
B) The End of the World
C) A Total Coincidence?
Right after the cyclone hit, Al Gore said he thought it was a result of global climate change. He's been silent, however, on what may have caused the earthquake and the newly active volcanoes. Could his deafening silence be because their activity is NOT caused by global warming? I don't know if the Almighty is planning the End of the World, but I do know that Gore isn't the Almighty. There IS a lot of shakin' and bakin' going on in the world, but let's not forget our common sense: sometimes they happen one at a time, and sometimes they happen in clusters. The rhythm of the world is under the direction of a higher force, a force much more powerful and profound than man. And we can see our vulnerability to that force in the photos coming from Burma and China.
