Is God really a volcano

[Anomalocaris]

There are a cluster of volcanoes in Saudi Arabia which lends a little credence to the Kenite hypothesis http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenite which indicates that southern tribes brought the whole Yah concept into Palestine.

Additionally there seem to be a couple of Egyptian inscriptions which refer to Yah ( or Yaw ) as a place name in Midian which would be analogous to Saudi Arabia. We see in Hawaii that when people live near active volcanoes that they are really impressed by them.

To be fair, there are volcanos in the Jordan Valley, on the Golan heights, and in western Syria. Those volcano might appear to be extinct due to lack of evidence of recent eruption, but the underlying tectonic mechanism for them is long lasting and certainly on-going. So these region are almost certainly not through with their volcanism on a geological time scale.

As to whether they could have erupted in historic times inspite of appearing dead now, I think the answer is it can't be ruled out. There was probably no mega giant eruptions with stratospheric pilinean columns, or huge pompian pyroclastic flows. But small scale ash eruption with a minimum of lava extrusion could leave very little evidence after a few hundred years. Such would likely remain undiscovered until some geologist randomly pick up a rock and date it.

There are recorded minor eruptions in Oregon and Washington in the 19th century, and even one in Northern california in early 20th, that left so little evidence that Geologists have yet to identify the exact spot.
