There are entirely too many disasters happening in the far east and not nearly enough happening in Ottawa.

If it weren’t for global or even regional news coverage, my interaction with natural disasters would be quite minimal. I don’t think I’ve personally experienced anything more intense than a hailstorm.

Of course, I’m sure there’s someone out there who has shown that hurricanes and earthquakes and what not are happening now more than ever…

Yep. None other than Elder Oaks in a recent GC. It’s very rare these days that one hears an apostle appeal to falsifiable evidence, but Elder Oaks went out on a limb.

IT has nothing to do with communications or technology when they wake you up in the middle of the night.

I agree with the comments that the Lord knew what was coming up and tried to warn us. For the most part we do listen to counsel given to us but there are many many areas that we still do not. Does that make us wicked compared to say someone who murders someone else? Obviously not.. but the Lord does not give us degrees of wickedness he just says the wicked will pay. So is that a lot wicked that will pay or just the little wicked will pay or all that are not perfect cause after all that must mean we are wicked as well????

Technically, Vancouver isn’t on any faults. All the faults bordering the North American Plate are west of Vancovuer Island.

Being in between Seattle and Vancouver Island we get the best of both the faults.. the Juan de Fuca and the Cascade one

They are on the same tectonic plate as Vancouver, the North American Plate.

I have no idea how you do links here so I just cut and pasted the link that shows how we are “sitting” above where both plates/faults are butting heads

They are only near the faults if you consider 100-200 km to be near.

As many of you can see, our rights are quickly disappearing in the good ole’ U.S. of America. I believe people should start looking a little deeper than thinking that we are in END TIMES! The only END TIMES I see, is the END TIMES of our civil liberties! We are losing are rights, faster than ever and it seems that no one in America, gives a hoot!! or is even noticing! I have personally questioned everything from 9-11 on forward to even …yes, hurricane Katrina! With all the devastation of prior storms even very , very bad ones, I have never heard any of them to have had Martial Law Declared!! Are they testing us out? Preparing us for worse things to come? It seems the answer to me is “yes”. I am reading a wonderful book right now called: “Economic Disorder”, by Larry Bates an ex-banker and former member of the House of Representatives, where he chaired the Committee on Banking & Commerce. He saw much unjustice while in his position, and also saw the ushing in of the NWO (New World Order) which our president and his father has mentions countless times in their speaks. He warns of the coming time, (very soon), that we will be a cashless society, doing everything electronically. This way , they can watch our every move and be able to control us. Everything now is being set up & (very rapidly) with the purpose of our downfall, and again, Americans are asleep! I highly recommend this book! Its sells on Amazon for a descent price. I found it to be an eye opener! The ISBN is 0-88419-383-7 I am also leaving a site for those of you interested in reading more about HAARP. here’s a coupleto get you started for more put the word Haarp into your search engine, I recommend Google. http://perdurabo10.tripod.com/id116.html http://www.popularmechanics.com/science/defense/1281146.html
Both are very interesting!!

Popular Mechanics explains how theywill use HAARP to fight wars, using weather as a weapon!! Happy Reading!! Please help others to think outside of the box! Pass this on!
