Let me be the first to say...
It's Bush's fault!
Interesting analogy Dobbs uses. The same thing occurred to me, but I don't know why those people would be considered any worse [sinners] than others on this globe. Does it relate at all to Akita or anything else?
At the moment I consider it merely the result of the earthquate, no Biblical intervention required . . .

I don't understand this. Did we stand still for a while? Did we jump forward, backward, slow, speed up? In what way did it affect our rotation and what is the data for this conclusion? If it did affect our rotation, everything will be affected. So, is this an emotional response or does the scientist have some measurements to back it up?
Mr. Dobbs was swimming of an island that is owned by his brother.

I get a little nervous when stuff affects the planet's rotation and stuff.
..... it even disturbed the rotation of the Earth......
I doubt it.
No evidence was presented.
Greenhouse gases caused it. Algore said it so it must be true. No?
The following prophetic doc from Nov about an Indonesian Tsunami dream/vision is more than a little interesting to me:
Arafat Era Ends 11/11 - An 11th Hour Warning
November 11, 2004
At exactly 4:30am Paris time on 11/11, Yasser Arafat was officially pronounced dead in French military hospital, fulfilling a significant series of prophecies concerning the "removal of Arafat", and how this relates to our current timeline. For the last several years we have received numerous prophetic words from people around the world, in many cases which the Holy Spirit has verbally spoken to them that the "removal of Arafat" would be a clear sign of the Lord's soon return, and indication that major judgments were about to explode on the world scene.
The timing in which Arafat fell into a coma, November 3, Paris time (November 2, U.S. time: Election Day) is also extremely significant (read our September 15, 2004 Rosh Hashanah Report). Shortly after Yasser Arafat fell into a coma on November 3, the Holy Spirit spoke to me that 11/11 would be a very significant date in history. (I mentioned this to my wife and several other ministry associates in the Philippines.) One week ago, we felt prompted to enter into a time of prayer and fasting from 11/11/04 - 01/11/05; a 3-month period of cleansing and preparation for the new year (chiefly a Daniel fast, fruits and vegetables).
On the early morning of 11/11 before the sun rose in the Philippines, I received the following vision: I was climbing a large mountain somewhere near the Indonesian coast, traveling upwards into a place of refuge. Upon reaching my destination in the mountains, I found a small city with a large population of Christians, and begin to prophesy to them about approaching judgments; but the inhabitants were spiritually blind, and could not receive the word.
Suddenly, the ground began to shake, and every eye looked towards the coast. Like a small ripple in the crystal blue sea, the first tidal wave approached and had little impact. Those watching said, "Is that all!?". They began to mock God's grace and mercy demonstrated in the first judgment.
But while they were mocking yet another wave approached, slightly larger; and then another, and another. Until finally one large ripple appeared on the horizon, so large that as it struck the hills on the coast the impact left a thunderous splash, towering perhaps a thousand feet into the air. Below us the water from the tsunami traveled along the river inland for nearly a hundred miles, destroying everything in it's path.
Damn! I just sent calenders to all my clients..........what does this mean? Do I need to send new ones with fewer days? Or more days, or what?
"All the planet is vibrating," Enzo Boschi, head of Italy's National Geophysics Institute..."
Desperate for riveting articles that prove their relevance, the media is beginning it's tailspin descent into the level of journalism formerly reserved for bat-boy and UFO's. The next wave of articles will probably sound like those from 1950's 'B' sci-fi movies...

"An Italian scientist says the earthquake was so strong, it even disturbed the rotation of the Earth. "
All the msm have latched onto this one sentence by somebody ... sounds scary doesn't it?
Only one problem, it doesn't say a thing! "..it disturbed the rotation.." !!!??? What is that supposed to mean?
"Disaster struck with no warning out of a faultlessly clear blue sky."
Sounds like 9-11...
According to one news report, the island of Sumartra moved 100 feet toward the Southwest.
Affected the planet's rotation???
Totally absurd!
Anyone know how to donate to the support effort in a Christian way?
