End of the World?

Post by _Who Knows »

MORONI (Reuters) - Earth tremors from Comoros' volcano Mount Karthala grew stronger and more frequent, residents said on Sunday, forcing thousands of nervous families to sleep outside overnight for fear their homes might collapse. The Indian Ocean archipelago's largest island, Grand Comore, was put on red alert after Mount Karthala -- one of the world's largest active volcanos -- began to glow red and emit suffocating fumes late on Friday.

Still waiting for Will to back this up...

What has the activity of on volcano have to do with the the end of the world? Is it in the link I'm apparently too lazy to read?

Would everyone be safe from the lava flows if they climbed to the top of Hill Comoro?

Moroni? Cumorah? Comoros islands?

Is Moroni ready to return - perhaps to give back the gold plates?

This all seems a bit cryptic, but is this anything to do with Captain Kidd, and Joseph's (or others) supposed source for the names Moroni and Cumorah?

How nice. Book of Mormon names in the news again. I wonder if anyone else picked up on that?

So how many Hill Cumorahs is this? 4? 5? Perhaps we should start counting the hills that are definitely not the Hill Cumorah and work from the other direction.

Did you all know there were 2 Nauvoo's in the US? Try finding the second more obscure one by searching online. Winner get's a dancing banana for their efforts!
