 Re: Earth tremor felt across England (27.3.08 breaking news)

Felt the quake. It woke me up and I knew the bed was shaking, but I dismissed it, thinking it might have been part of a dream.

Later, my husband phoned me from work and said it had been an earthquake.

Others have been speaking about it and their experiences.

For me, this is yet another sign of the endtimes.

Hope we have revival before long.

God bless

Dr Brian Baptie, of the BGS, said: "An earthquake of this size, of magnitude five or thereabouts, will occur roughly every 10 to 20 years in the UK. So we can get these kind of moderate to significant earthquakes of this size but they're relatively rare."

According to this expert that Tremors are normal in the UK about every 2 decades.

Can we put the book of Revelations away for now?

Brother Compliments,

That '10 to 20 years' you quoted is a statistical average. The last quake was centred around 60 miles west of this, in 2002.

Six years ago.

Perhaps not?

Absolutely not! But, when have you ever heard of a seismologist make the actual practicality of earthquakes sound as simple as 'every 10 to 20 years'. That was a [i]soundbite[/i], and very far from feeling the effect of [i]feeling[/i] the earth tremble.

Did you read the BBC page, and how frightened other people were when they heard the rumbling underground? I was frightened by much [i]less[/i] commotion.



I've been thinking recently (before this event) about the prophecy of people [i]desiring[/i] the rocks to fall on them... rather than... hmmm ... ... what? Does the Bible tell us? Is it the wrath of God... or, His holy presence?

The earthquake caused damage to many homes.
