----LITERAL & SYMBOLIC MESSAGES ON ARMAGEDDON
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------March 19, 2007
2007 March: The chaos and evil in today's world have led many to bible study, particularly prophetic messages concerning Armageddon, The End of Days, and 666. One Bible prophecy foretells that the Jewish Temple must be rebuilt before the second coming of the savior. The interpretations of the Bible leaves many people, scholars, and theologians unsure of biblical prophecies and their interpretations. Are they meant to be taken as literal, or symbolically? The below two passages are excellent examples of literal and symbolic prophecy

MATTHEW 20:17~18  Jesus literally tells His disciples that the Son of man shall be betrayed and handed over to the chief priests. Then the Son of man would be mocked, then crucified to death: and on third day he shall rise again. This is a literal text prophecy.

MARK: 14:57~60  The head priests had stated that Jesus spoke of destroying the temple, and within three days He would build another one. The priests interpreted that this was The Jewish Temple that Jesus spoke of, and that it had took decades to construct. this enormous building which was located on the temple mount. The priests mocked Jesus by saying how could he rebuild the temple in three days, when it took decades to build? Jesus was not speaking of the temple building, Jesus was stating that metaphorically HIS body was the temple which would be destroyed, then RISE in three days. This is symbolic prophecy. Below is a brief history concerning the geographic area of the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.

Any military or religious attack on the Islamic Dome of the Rock, which would innate the rebuilding of the Jewish temple mount
would be a certain path to World War III.. One exception to this geographic grid-lock would be an enormous earthquake which would topple all buildings in the area of Jerusalem. The temple mount would be rebuilt, but not with a Muslim Mosque, The third Jewish Temple would be built and retake it's historic location. The previous Jewish Temple was destroyed in 70 A.D. by the Romans.

The Global Map of earthquake activity is shown below. As you can see, the area of the Middle East is the most concentrated area in the world for seismic activity. It would be highly plausible for an earthquake with a magnitude of 9.0 to 10.3  to hit the area of Israel to Iran. An earthquake of this magnitude would literally be of  biblical proportions which would leave this region of the world in chaos.

Seismic Map of the Middle East

One scenario could include massive earthquake with a magnitude of 8.4  to 10.2 on the Richter scale in the area of Jerusulem. Such a disaster would devastate and destroy all current structures in the city of Jerusalem, including the The Dome of the Rock. The country of Iran suffers frequent earthquakes, with small tremors happening almost daily. Since 1991, tremors have claimed some 17,600 lives and injured 53,000 people, according to official figures..
In the Middle East region, modern tectonic activity is forced by the convergent movements between two plates: the Arabian plate, including Saudi Arabia, Persian Gulf and the Zagros Ranges of Iran, and the Eurasian plate that incorporates Europe, central and East Asia, as well as the interior Iran. Earthquakes in Iran and neighboring regions (e.g., Turkey and Afghanistan) are closely connected to their position within the geologically active Alpine-Himalayan belt. A major fault line, the Jordan Valley rift, runs through Israel. About 400 earthquakes occur annually in Israel, yet most are so minor only a seismograph can detect them.
-------------------------------------------THE TEMPLE MOUNT TODAY
-------------------------------
The Temple Mount as it appears today. The Western Wall is in the foreground with the Dome of the Rock rising over the Mount.

It was the site of the first (c. 957 BCE, destroyed c. 587 BCE) and second (c. 515 BCE, destroyed in 70 CE ) Jewish Temples in Jerusalem and according to Judaism is to be the site of the third and final Temple to be rebuilt with the coming of the Messiah; and as such it is the holiest site in the world  for Jews and Christians. It is also the site of two major Muslim religious shrines, the Dome of the Rock (c. 690) and Al-Aqsa Mosque (c. 710). It is thus one of the most contested religious sites in the world. Under the Jordanian rule of Eastern Jerusalem between 1948 and 1967, Israelis were forbidden from entering the Old City. Currently, as territory of Israel, the government of Israel has granted a Muslim Council full administration of the site.

--------------------------------------------------THE FIRST TEMPLE
While the point at which the Temple Mount enters history may be disputed (see the religious traditions mentioned above), history records that there was a First Temple that stood for 410 years, being built by the Israelites in 996 BC and destroyed by Nebuchadnezzar II of Babylon in 586 BC.

-----------------------------------------------THE SECOND TEMPLE
Construction of the Second Temple began in 530, 70 years after the exile to Babylonia. It was destroyed for a second time by Titus 420 years later, in 70 AD, after being expanded by Herod . The Romans were, however, unable to topple the Western Wall of the Temple Mount (or completely destroy the Mount, for that matter). Upon the destruction of the Temple, the Rabbis revised prayers, and introduced new ones to request the speedy rebuilding of the Temple (and the city of Jerusalem). They also instituted the saying of the portions of the Torah commanding the bringing of the sacrifices in place of the sacrifices themselves.

------------------------------------REBULIDING THE TEMPLE
----------------------------
The Dome of the Rock in the center of the Temple Mount, or Mount Moriah. The rock in the center of the dome is believed by Muslims to be the spot from which Muhammad ascended to God in heaven, accompanied by the angel Gabriel. There he consulted with Moses and was given the (now obligatory) Islamic prayers before returning to Earth. The Dome was built between 687 and 691 an it remains one of the best known landmarks of Jerusalem.

DOOMSDAY ASTEROIDS
--------------------------------
2007 MARCH: At 7:17 AM on the morning of June 30, 1908, a mysterious explosion occurred in the skies over Siberia. It may have been caused by the impact and breakup of a large meteorite, at an altitude roughly six kilometers in the atmosphere.It left in its wake a scarred landscape littered with tens of thousands of felled trees.  Because the meteorite did not strike the ground or make a crater, early researchers thought the object might be a weak, icy fragment of a comet, which vaporized explosively in the air, and left no residue on the ground. Some researchers theroize the event was likely caused by a low-density asteroid that exploded in the atmosphere, sending out a firestorm that burned trees and a shock wave that did more damage, according to a story on the BBC's web site. The explosion was equal to more than 10 million tons of TNT, researchers say.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Asteroid  2004 XP14
On the dark morning hours of January 18, 2000, a fireball exploded over the town of Whitehorse in the Canadian Yukon at an altitude of about 26 kilometers, lighting up the night like day and bringing down a third of the Yukon's electrical power grid, due to the electromagnetic pulse created by the blast. The meteor that produced the fireball was estimated to be about 4.6 meters in diameter and with a weight of 180 tonnes. If the asteroid had hit the area instead of exploding in the atmosphere, it would have had the force of a nuclear bomb. Other such atmospheric explosions occurred over the Pacific Ocean in 2001, and over The Mediterranean Ocean in 2002.  On June 15, 2002, an asteroid the size of a football field, dubbed 2002MN, came within 120,000 kilometers of hitting Earth. The rocky body was traveling at a speed of 36,800 kilometers per hour, and if it struck, it would have wreaked as much destruction as a nuclear weapon. It was one of the closest passes ever recorded for an object of that size. And astronomers didn't detect it till three days afterward. On Monday, July 3, 2006, Asteroid  2004 XP14 passed within 268,624 miles of  Earth, a distance that's little more than the moon's average distance from Earth. The sobering story was that the 2004 XP14 asteroid was discovered was on Dec. 10, 2004, a period of less than 19 months before impact. Another asteroid named 1997 XF11 will pass close to the Earth in October 2028, according to astronomers at NASA. Asteroid (29075) 1950 DA was discovered on 23 February 1950. It was observed for 17 days and then faded from view for half a century. Then, an object discovered on 31 December 2000 was recognized as being the long-lost 1950 DA. 1950DA is a kilometer wide asteroid and if it impacted the Earth, it would have the explosive force of 100,000 mega-tons. ( A Hydrogen Bomb is 10-15 mega-tons.) It is now not a question of if an asteroid hits the Earth, but when.

------BUSH ADMINISTRATION LIED ON GLOBAL WARMING
2007 March: The current issue of global warming is most troublesome and a recipe for global annihilation.and the extinction of the human race. The last 12 years has produced seven years which were the hottest recorded years in global temperatures. Numerous individuals claim that global warming is a myth, and that the reducing of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere would have no effect in the lowering of global temperatures. Other groups claim that the scientific evidence of global warming is a reality which must be overcome before it's to late. The melting of the polar ice caps have already raised sea levels on a global scale.This resulting melt down will lead the earth into famine, droughts, and the breakout of global war between nations fighting for limited water, food, and dwindling natural resources.

In March 2007,a former White House official accused of improperly editing reports on global warming defended his editing changes Monday, saying they reflected views in a 2001 report by the  National Academy of Sciences. House Democrats said the 181 changes made in three climate reports reflected a consistent attempt to emphasize the uncertainties surrounding the science of climate change and undercut the broad conclusions that man-made emissions are warming the earth.
Philip Cooney, former chief of staff at the White House Council on Environmental Quality, acknowledged at a House hearing that some of the changes he made were "to align these communications with the administration's stated policy" on climate change. It seems the Bush administrative knows no limits when it comes to policy. That policy is lying to US citizens and the global community. "My concern is that there was a concerted White House effort to inject uncertainty into the climate debate," said Rep. Henry Waxman (news, bio, voting record), D-Calif., chairman of the  House Government Reform Committee.
Cooney said that many of the changes he made to the reports, such as uncertainty about the regional impact of climate change and limits on climate modeling, reflected findings of a 2001 National Academy of Sciences report on climate. James Hansen, director of  NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies and one of the country's leading climate scientists, who said the White House repeatedly tried to control what government scientists say to the public and media about climate change.

On Sunday March 25, Jerry Falwell preached  that global warming is a myth. This myth according to Fartwell originated from groups such as abortionist, liberals, gays, those who oppose Jerry Fartwells babbling on global warming.. Others Fartwell
blamed were ecologists, religious leaders and individuals in Hollywood.. According to Fartwell this hysteria comes from the United Nations, liberal religious leaders, ecologists, and he blames everyone on global warming seems except for Fartwell himself. He even went as far as saying the Bible  passages Psalm 24 & Geniis 8;32 enforce his fanatical ideals on global warming by giving his false interpretations of biblical scripture. The Bush and Fartwells of the world and those who support them and their ideology are the most guilty of all.
