    Big Earthquake in Iran December 26, 2003 Death toll possibly 40,000

    Big Earthquake/Tsunami December 26, 2004 Death toll now at 272,000

    Exactly one year apart to the day.

    Just a coincidence of natural disasters that two major destructions happen exactly one year apart to the day? :confused:

    And the day after Christmas, at that! :eek:

    Musician Naomi Judd was born on January 11, 1946.

    The former prime minister of Canada, Jean Chretien, was born January 11, 1934.

    Coincidence???


    The fact is that there are only 365 days in a year. Each day, there are tens of thousands of events that are noticeable, and of those, hundreds of them are globally newsworthy. Picking any random day on the calendar, one will be able to find hundreds of significant events occurring on that day in history.

    I don't think it's coincidence, things happen for a reason.

    There are probly a lot of weirder coincidences than that its just that the news media will highlight big stuff like that to get ratings. I dont thinks its the end of the world, but Yes everything happens for a reason, God just doesent randomly do things. they may be in sertin places to get a messege to a small group of people or to a large. but i doubt its a sign of the end.

    But that doesn't mean we should try to read a meaning into everything that happens.

    I know the reason!

    We are living in a sin cursed world and the world is groaning and travailing in pain (Rom 8:22).

    I know a few folks who believe that major events that we see in the natural are indicative of things that are happening in the spirit realm.
    Now don't ya'll go getting sarcastic on me about this...they just believe that we will know the times and seasons based on what's happening in the natural realm.

    You won't have to worry about me getting sarcastic. But I'm in the minority on this stuff around here it seems. [​IMG]

    I see no reason not to understand this as being a coincidence.
