No! By observing the graph YOU furnished, it is a HUGE spike that's been sustained for 50 years.
That would be the opposite of what you're saying.
This argument is not about God creating a 50 year "spike" of natural disasters
In perspective to this argument, absolutely not.
Which is exactly what a discussion of the weather is all about. It is a neutral ground that those not looking for a fight will concede to. It is only those looking to be right will find fuel so that they make the effort.There have been many, many years with hundreds of tornado deaths (as per the statistics I posted). This is a year with hundreds of tornado deaths. I see no anomalies. You can say "Well compared to last year, they are way more frequent!", my response to that is that this happens literally all the time with weather and disasters. You can have a good year and be fortunate to not lose many people, and then the next year get hit badly. That is why such a narrow focus does no good, you're not proving anything out of the ordinary.
Accuracy here is subjective. Simply because given age of the earth, or even the time we live on it whether it be 1 year we look at or 50, it is still only a drop in the bucket compared to actual weather's history of this planet. If you want a truly accurate assessment then why not go back as far as recorded History will allow? Why limit your effort to 50 years? Why, because it goes back far enough to prove your point.His point is that the larger you increase the timescale, the more accurate you become. You are shrinking the timescale down to a couple of years, his point is that this is a much less accurate way of coming to a conclusion.
I on the other hand need only go back 1 year to prove mine, (Hint it has little to do with the weather) and more to do with the foolish nature of an argument concerning the weather, and the type of people who would pursue such an endeavor.
Also, yes I do know that this is a double edged sword.
You believe God purposefully created those tornado's to crash over cities and kill hundreds of innocent people in order to warn us that he's coming? How messed up is that?
Since accuracy seem to be the "fuel" that powers your efforts, Please Highlight my comments that lead you to your last conclusion. Just copy and paste or even give me a post number that has me telling you any of what you just posted.
If/when you can not find this post I would like for you to readdress your comments on "accuracy, and the need for evidence."
God is trying to wake the nations up. Hold fast. As the disasters get worse we will witness the greatest move of God in human history
So God is showing his love for us by sending us earthquakes, hurricanes, famines, diseases, etc?

I know the mods will censor me so I'll keep it clean : you are an ash hole.
You display an even greater level of arrogance than most atheists I've come to know. You're always ready and willing to make a smart reply to somebody putting down their level of intelligence. You've done it to me multiple times and I've seen you do it to others (like here).
Yet when you speak, you make it sound like absolute truth and that you stand on the higher ground. Shame on you for misrepresenting your religion so poorly.

And I am sorry that i hold you to your various levels of hypocrisy, and point out your elementary level Sunday school understandings of that in which you speak so absolutely, and securely about.
The reason I decided to leave that argument is because the person in question does not understand how to use the reference material I have been referencing. Then when I broke the explanation down to it's most basic level the person then proceeded to tell me Wikipedia tells Him the Concordances and lexicons are not valid reference materials, in the decerning how bible was translated.. Which is ludicrous because these reference materials were compiled to that very end. To which i decided there was absolutely nothing more that can be said. I even admitted this in that post "That i was at the end of my ability to explain these facts."Elementary level understandings, hm. Again, you seem to enjoy thinking of yourself on a higher and more intellectual ground. A great example of this is in the "Why Jesus didn't come back" thread, where you start talking about "lexicons and concordances" and using them to justify the meaning of genea. You got hosed in that argument by the same lexicons you use to support it, and you made no response to it at all. Your argument is completely defeated, you give up, and move on to display your superiority in another thread.
When I call a person a fool or label their efforts foolish, it is not just a name calling exercise. It is because their actions, words or deed comply with the definition of a fool or a foolish behavior.What's funny is if you go through that argument, you find that you do the same thing, end up resorting to insults. Calling people "foolish" multiple times, telling people they need their memory checked, etc.
I say these things as a way to wake up the person in question in hopes to shock them back into reality, so that the conversation may proceed on a coherent level.
Is that what happened with the answers i provided you? Did I insult you or simply show you the hypocrisy and arrogance of your challenges? (I know these are hot button words but look past them to their actual meanings. They do apply to your situation/behavior.) Is this why you stopped responding to me? Because you ran out of hurtful things to say, or cause doubt with me? Is this why you bring up My efforts in the other thread?Your responses start off attempting to be rational, then as you are slowly "chipped away" at your responses become shorter and shorter, and filled more and more with insults instead of reason.
Coming from one who hates Christ i guess that is actually a compliment.. (All of the disciples were hated by unbelievers too. to the point of death in most cases.)You are a disgusting disciple of Jesus' teachings.

I do not hate Jesus Christ, I actually respect many of his moral teachings that you so clearly do not follow.
What exactly am I ignorant of? God's loving wrath (which is what this thread is about)? I told raze to prove it because the burden of proof is upon him to convince me that God is about to pour out his wrath.
You got hosed in that argument by the same lexicons you use to support it
