i have read a lot and watched some you-tube videos (some by marginally lunatic fringe christians - not necessarily invalidating) searching for asteroid september 2015 or comet september 2015.. there is some biblical evidence that, if one doesn't spiritualize / make literally invalid by symbolic exercise, that at the time of the end of the age there will be a uniquely severe, single great earthquake (isaiah 29:6, zecharia 4:7, haggia 2:6, revelation 6:12, revelation 16:18) and destructive objects described as hail, mountains falling from the sky, stars falling onto earth.
i note that ancients would not recognize the vastness of outer space and meteroids, asteroids, comets, planets being what we know them as.. there is also the exact symbol of "then the second angel blew his trumpet, and a great mountain of fire was thrown into the sea.
one-third of the water in the sea became blood, one-third of all things living in the sea died, and one-third of all the ships on the sea were destroyed.

angola has banned islam and closed the mosques, saying that it is a sect and counter to the culture of the country.. http://www.worldbulletin.net/headlines/163865/angola-bans-islam-shuts-down-mosques .
Conservative Muslims hate Christians and non-Muslims.
Ancient Hebrews hated non-Hebrews and were barbaric in their laws in general.
Fundamentalist Christians consider non-Christians to be worthy of eternal torture unless, of course, they convert.
The three sisters Judaism, Christianity and Islam have similar temperaments even if they look different from each other in superficial appearance.

violias: "He has attacked a religious belief..."
Only from the point of view of those who share that religion. From an objective point of view he is simply punishing a person who isn't following orders.
ok so in 1kings chapters 5-6 is where we have the story of the construction of solomon's most holy temple to god, the supreme god.
it says that to build this magnificent temple they used 30,000 men, 10,000 per month.
another 70,000 common laborers in the hills digging up stone and 80,000 stone cutting laborers.
Solomon's temple; a talent for exaggeration*:
I have taken great pains to provide for the temple of the Lord a hundred thousand talents of gold, a million talents of silver, quantities of bronze and iron too great to be weighed, and wood and stone. And you may add to them. - 1 Chronicles 22:14 New International Version
*A talent weighs 75 lbs.

Morpheus:
"Im finding it harder and harder to believe that a simple minded county clerk in the middle of bum screw america is still such a hot topic."
You've got tens of millions of right wing Christians who've been fed a steady diet of mock persecution and threats of revolution and this woman is all that it will take to spark the next civil war.
Listen to the 1:04 mark. He speaks for a lot of Christo-fascists in this nation.

Sorry if I misunderstood what you said but you did say, "How does being angry with me show that you know she is playing the martyr?" in response to one of my posts. I assumed you must have misunderstood the cartoon I put up in another post.

Fisherman:
"How do you know she is playing the martyr? How does being angry with me show that you know she is playing the martyr?"
I'm not angry with you. That cartoon was directed at the exchange between you and Viviane.
As for playing the martyr, if she knew beforehand that she was going to jail and if she basked in the publicity amongst her fellow believers who supported her then that's enough of a reason to figure out her motives.

Fisherperson: "How do you know?"
How do I know she's playing the martyr? She has stated, before she got jailed, that she was willing to go to jail. She's been held up in Fundamentalist Christian circles as a hero for taking a stand.
This issue has been brewing before the mainstream media picked up on it. Go here for more details.
