Oh, certainly not. Why expect you to evidence the least bit of empathy for other human beings in a catastrophic disaster lacking basic necessities in freezing temperatures when you can convert it into an expression of your juvenile religious
~ No it isn't. You got exposed for being a hypocritical moron again (not to mention having a bizarre and unhealthy obsession with me). Whoops!~ Where is your evidence of empathy? Whoops. I guess it was more important for you to obsess over me some more. And what is "juvenile" about not believing in silly fairy tales? As usual you have it ass backwards.
Highlighting what a shitass you are about it is excellent evidence of empathy with the victims but I never expected you to grasp that.
You don't even believe that yourself. And you're hoping someone else is going to buy it? LOL.
You are a quivering mess of fetid blab.
I don't need to convince anyone of anything. Your posts are are a billboard of stupidity and unhealthy obsession. You should really talk to a professional about it at this point.

Gravitational aliments. .. Google:
Which science shows true. (Like actual science)."One study, for example, concludes that during times of higher earth and ocean tides, such as
during times of full or new moon, earthquakes are more likely on shallow thrust faults near the
edges of continents and in (underwater) subduction zones."
Try https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/does-moon-cause-earthquakes-study-says-no-1-180967896/
It's not about the moon being full, or that the earthquakes had to be >8. But that the extra pull, going into and out of ("close") Full, is meaningful.I did. Did you?Yes, I read it. It said that there is no correlation between full moons and magnitude 8.0 or greater
earthquakes.
"In 2004, USGS analysis suggested there was a very small increase in the number of earthquakes in
deep ocean basins during low tide. And in 2016, a study by researchers at the University of Tokyo
found that some of the largest recent earthquakes—including the 2004 Sumatra quake, the 2010
quake in Chile and the 2011 Tohoku-Oki off the coast of Japan—all occurred during close to times of
peak tidal stress. But the study's authors were careful to not infer that one necessarily caused the other."
~ I did. I also read the sources. They retrofit data. It is not a likely hypothesis.And;
"One study, for example, concludes that during times of higher earth and ocean tides, such as during times
of full or new moon, earthquakes are more likely on shallow thrust faults near the edges of continents and

Google it..
Can Jerry dispense with your sources just by saying, 'They retrofit data'? I'm just wondering if that method is applicable either way or only one way.
