Krakatoa just exploded




You don't think it's going to make a little ice age like in 19th century?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Unlikely, since it’s erupted dozens of times since the big one in 1883.

FUCK! Depending on the magnitude this could effect the region if not the world. I forget which volcano erupted a few years back that disrupted air flight. On top of the virus, this shit is not something that part of the world needs right now.

Also, I think it was Mt. Tambora that caused the year without a summer in 1815. While there have been some claims that the 1883 eruption contributed to particularly brutal winters, it should be noted that this period of "volcanic winter" actually started the winter before it.

Also, there were previous eruptions in 2018, and I think that might have been a bigger one that this, since it apparently caused tsunamis:

IIRC Krakatau is the correct spelling. "Krakatoa, West of Java" was the movie title.

The film was ‘Krakatoa East Of Java’. They got it wrong, you got it right. Smile

This is, I think, the 40th eruption since 1883. Nothing to fret about.
