7. Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places.

1) There have been wars throughout the entire 6,000+ year history of human civilization. Interestingly, a variety of organizations tracking warfare have found that the last few years have been among the most peaceful worldwide in recent memory. There are no large-scale organized country-against-country wars going on anywhere in the world at the moment, which has been shockingly rare in human history.

2) There have been earthquakes continuously in the entire 4 billion year history of this planet. It's a meaningless prediction (Actually, I suspect it's a bit of a joke played on the gullible, a reinforcement of the idea that the End cannot be predicted.)

The most peaceful?

I don't think the most recent years have been the most peaceful at all.

I agree. The end times will be a succession of World Wars from which mankind will never recover. Man will become the proverbial overcrowded mouse cage: Man will rend the civilization he has created into unrecognizable fragments. Christ also said that we will now the end is near (simply by the severity).

Now is not the time, I think.

I wish everyone could have the opportunity to view a few 2D or 3D seismic lines that have been shot over the years by the oil companies in search of underground traps that might contain hydrocarbons.

Multiple fault lines are visible in every one of them. Nearly all are currently inactive, but given the throw on some of them, this earth has been rockin' and rollin' since the start.

Texas isn't thought of as earthquake country. Rightfully so at the moment. The seismic lines I'd be happy to show anyone show fault displacements that would make the Indonesian earthquakes look like mere shivers.
