Revelation 00137 8:7 The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.
The blood is red rain of iron from the out gassing of the star.
The “heat shock” and “atmosheric chemical reaction” postulated by Prinn & Fegly in 1987 is a far less speculative for explaining the Wormwood Star Prophecy than is the “brown dwarf star”. The scientific scenario I have proposed only deals with enhancing the scientific credibility of the “Wormwood Star Prophecy”.
One should assume that if the “heat shock” is so great that it would convert O2 and N2 into NO and subsequently acid rain, it would also cause a tremendous “fire storm” in the area surrounding it's impact.
I am not refuting the connection of the Wormwood Star prophecy with Rev. 8.7, but for the sake of establishing the credibility of this article, I am circumventing it.
It also doesn't serve my argument to wander into speculation of ancient Chinese prophecies that may or may not be related to the prophecy of the Apostle John.
Sorry for being so strait-laced in the way I am approaching the subject. I don't want to be faulted for straying off into discussions that may be seen as fancifull.
