-Removed-I see so you cannot say and once again insist on pandering your opinion as if it has some efficacy beyond the hot air which inflates it. Once again you seem to have little to contribute except the usual dull 'contentious for contentiousness sake', style arguments which has marred your entire posting history. How so thoroughly predictable and so thoroughly banal.

-Removed-more irrelevant nothingness. We are well aware of your douchbaggery and how you attempt to turn any issue against those people you find objectionable, but it wont happen here for this thread is about Jesus prophecy and the scientific data which has been used to establish it, its no place for your prejudices, hatred and rampant douchebaggery, move along, you clearly have nothing worth contributing.

because my dear Wolfgang we must go by what is known ie recorded data rather than what is not known. Surely this is the empirical scientific method?
You cannot seriously believe that one decade or one century will have similar
seismic activity to another. It is (for all intents) random (the frequency) and
although we can say some events are "overdue" it doesn't mean they
are going to happen tomorrow or even in 100 years.

Originally posted by wolfgang59Again no one has made this claim, either there has been an increase in the magnitude and frequency of measurable seismic activity or there has not and all we can know with any certainty is what has been measured by the scientific method.

Originally posted by robbie carrobieThe bit where you claim there is a significant increase.
really, which of the following data is in your words, 'unreliable',
You don't give a source, but I am guessing you got that from Wikipedia.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_20th-century_earthquakes
Wikipedia includes a kind of chart and there is no indication of an increase in the chart.

Originally posted by robbie carrobieObviously what I am saying is that even if an increase can be shown it is irrelevant.

Originally posted by googlefudgeI find this amusing, because this reminds me of the far-right's view that global warming is "nonsense".
There is probably an increase in Earthquakes hitting heavily populated areas over the last century,
as the number of heavily populated areas increases this is pretty inevitable.
But as you say, nobody in the relevant field is concerned about any great increase in earthquake
frequency... mainly because there isn't one.
I still find it hard to ...[text shortened]... in almost every metric you care to name in making life better for the majority
of human kind.
