Religious Haitians see hand of God in earthquake

By MICHELLE FAUL
The Associated Press
Sunday, January 17, 2010; 7:03 PM

PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti — Deeply religious Haitians see the hand of God in the destruction of Biblical proportions visited on their benighted country. The quake, religious leaders said Sunday, is evidence that He wants change.

Exactly what change He wants depends on the faith: Some Christians say it’s a sign that Haitians must deepen their faith, while some Voodoo followers see God’s judgment on corruption among the country’s mostly light-skinned elite.

I thought I saw something yesterday about a 6.0 on the Guatemalan coast. Watch out for volcanos too.

Here’s an article from 2005 warning of such possibilities. (I actually had little knowledge of the plate tectonics and trenches in the area)

If that stress were to be released on the submarine fault, it could trigger a catastrophic tsunami of the scale of the 26 December 2004 Indian Ocean disaster.

We aren't going to see a single week without a 6.0 or better from now on somewhere in the world. "Diverse places..."

I think you’re right, Comedian.

Certainly your research is impressive.

I suspect Strategerist is going to have to . . .

reconsider a lot of assumptions . . .

if not eat a ton of crow . . . or dirt.

The human mind has a remarkable ability to create patterns of out randomness.

Exceeded only by its ability to screen out and ignore unpleasant reality as portrayed by objective inference.

Now, now.

Don’t you know it’s not polite to question

the omniscience of the supreme intellectual elitist on such threads!

I mean, after all, everyone else is just ignorant by comparison.

No one else has more than a gnat’s fart’s worth of a clue about earthquakes.

And the fact that 7.0 & above quakes have been rising in frequency . . . well . . . that’s just END TIMES stupid hysterics from the ignorant religionists.

The all knowing, KNOW better.

LOL.

God is punishing Argentina for sending relief to Haiti.

That's a great graph. Did you put it together or find it on the web? Do you have a link for reference?

Thanks, Shalom.

I think it was one of those mini-links I posted in a reply to you? I saw it too, regardless.

I’m sure it’s due to the approach of Nibiru. [joke alert!]
