Recent Earthquakes

Recent Earthquakes: There Have Been a Number of Recent Earthquakes May 21 2011 – Could They Be Connected to Judgement Day?

So the world didn’t end on May 21 2011 – 6pm came and went and the Rapture didn’t take place like Harold Camping said it would.

He predicted that there would be a number of earthquakes on May 21 2011, and in a way he was kind of right. Not the end-of-the-world kind of earthquakes, but a number of strong quakes did hit around the globe today.

An earthquake struck in New Zealand, a magnitude 6.1, near the Kermadec Islands on Saturday, May 21 at 9:17 pm UTC – however, Sunday, May 22, 9:17 am at the epicentre.

A magnitude 5.0 earthquake struck in the Banda Sea, Indonesia, at 21:37 UTC, however, it was 6:37 am on Sunday May 22 at the epicentre.

Then, in Japan, a 5.8 magnitude earthquake struck near the coast of Honshu, at 22:06 UTC, but it was 7:06am on Sunday May 22 at the epicentre.
So although it was May 21, 2011 in some parts of the world, it was already May 22 in the places where the earthquake hit.

Could Harold Camping have been wrong about the date and time?
Doubtful, as we’ll still be talking about this years from now, but we thought it was interesting that there have been a number of earthquakes today, and don’t forget the volcano in Iceland erupting as well, that it has been an active day. Rapture or no Rapture.
