"In the Gulf of Mexico, where Liu has been working in back-barrier freshwater lakes, the geological evidence for hurricanes extends further back into history, though it is somewhat less precise in the storm-by-storm details. “Our records go back about 5,000 years, and we definitely see a long-term cycle,” he notes. From about 5,000 to 3,400 years ago, hurricane patterns in the Gulf Coast were relatively mild. From 3,400 to 1,000 years ago, the region endured a “hyperactive” period. The past 1,000 years have been relatively placid.

“The good news is that we are living in a quiet period,” Liu says. “The bad news is that if we think we have seen too many catastrophic hurricanes coming our way, we haven't seen anything yet.”


So were Indians being punished for not supporting a country they'd never even heard of in the period of hyperactive Gulf of Mexico hurricane activity from 3,400 to 1,000 years ago?

So my question is does God only bless and not curse his people the Church and National Israel now? I mean does he not still bless us? Have his curses been written out of the Bible?
