"Since the start of the 21st century, dozens of incoming asteroids have slammed into Earth, some of them packing far more energy than a city-destroying atomic bomb, a new animation illustrates."

This goes a long way to explaining LDS. Mormonism is like the deals companies give new subscribers while being subsidized by existing clients. I can hear the pitch now, "Sign up today. Not only will you receive our traditional package but we'll throw in special underwear, three levels of heaven, and your own special planet requiring you to constantly spirit fuck to populate. Planets are limited so don't wait; call now."

Pedantic Cthulhu says - earth has never been struck by an asteroid, but has been struck by countless meteors.

But seriously, we are lucky then it has never been recorded that one of those flattened a populated city, two of these hit really close to where i live, i know that they blew up high in the atmosphere but still, disturbing.
