Nonsense about pending cataclysmic disasters aside (at least as promulgated by the History Channel), I do find intriguing references in both Old and New Testament texts to (future?) disasters that sound an awful lot like great impacts. Just one example: <http://scriptures.lds.org/en/rev/6/14-16#14> Revelation 6: 14-16. Is anyone aware of similar references in the Talmud, Koran or other religious texts? (No Nostradamus, please.) Kim
Sorry all, I didn't realize that the link to LDS scriptures was embedded in that post.
