Yep, the world started to end again. You heard it here first!
Haiti wasn't good enough for a lot of folks. Too small. Now we have the Chile earthquake. We have an apocalyptic 8.8 on the rock and roll scale. Haiti was just 7.0, but that is a strong quake for a country that has such poor housing construction.
But is 8.8 apocalyptic? Well, in 1960 the same area of Chile had a 9.5 quake and there were tsunami waves that hit Hawaii, and California. As I write this, the waves haven't hit, but there are people going to higher ground. So, nothing new and thanks to earthquake resistant housing, Chili is faring much better than Haiti. No, this isn't apocalyptic. It is however as usual, not so good for a lot of people. It is apocalyptic for the many people affected (see Red Cross link below).
It is a great time for doomsayers. You will probably see a few dozen come out of the woodwork quoting the Mayan calendar again. Especially true given this quake hit in the Mayan neighborhood of South America. The latest earthquake is always a sign that we will see another that will tip the world spill the martinis of the evil people that infect the Earth.
I really wish doomsayers would be just a tad more creative...
I would prefer that you ignore the latest crop of doomsayers and instead, donate to the Red Cross who is really the best organization on the planet.

Earthquakes Keep On Shaking World To End
Well, another earthquake is sending us signs that the world will end any second. This time Turkey.
Funny thing though, earthquakes happen all the time. Nothing new to see here. Why can't the dead rise from their graves or folks with 666 on their foreheads get into politics? I am getting tired of or the same old signs!

Man or Beast?
I'm doing a little research for the book cover today and came across a reference to the seven headed beast in Revelations. The fellow bloggers over at Bible & World History Timeline. The interesting bit was this statement in regards to the the dehumanizing of a hated enemy to be no more than a beast to be killed:
Truer words a hard to come by! Think of this as the opposite of giving your dog a good solid name, like Humphrey. We then further humanize the pet and it becomes our closest relative. We talk to our pets like they are people. We give them human emotions, fears, and foibles that are clearly human and not a dog (especially true for some breeds).
This humanization of our pets is so compelling that in the greatest downturn since the depression we are actual increasing our spending on our pets for everything from food to extending their lives with medicines, operation, and even chemotherapy.
So, see how powerful the humanizing of a pet is? Imagine how powerful it is to call the President a monster, a Nazi, or the Antichrist.
Speaking of the good old Nazi, did you know that they were doing the same things as the Republicans are with Democrats? Yep, dehumanizing. The Democrats are evil, etc. Soon the shooting will begin and we are off on to the predicted Apocalypse where the seven heads are seven Democratic states and the ten will be powerful Democrats. Of course the whore ridding the beast will be the President.
Hatred is just that easy. Of course, that's why you are reading this, we need to know when a bunch of hate mongers are about to end the world so that we can hunker down and wait for the Republicans to start hatting themselves.
The writer of Revelation saw Rome as the Seven Headed Dragon, and in fact, Satan. There was no greater monster to him than Rome. The sad fact today is that many of us still follow the example of allowing our anger to gradually remove all of the attributes of humanity from those we hate, eventually transforming them into irredeemable monsters. And of course, we can more easily kill monsters without remorse.
