Worst thing to happen to the world: Religion. Separates everyone and for no real reason. The only thing that should separate someone is Sports!  I remember the 9/11 Religions crap. That led to 2012 the end of the Mayan calendar. Eh, to paraphrase and old saying, religion doesn't separate people, people separate people. Religion can be perverted and used for evil, but it's an excuse like any other. If it didn't exist, they'd find some other reason. I'm an atheist myself, but saying religion has brought nothing good to the world IMO is crap. |

Apparently, they are expecting or it's said that there's 88,000 people missing (my local news said this, and I haven't heard anything more so I dunno about the truth in this), in addition to the confirmed deaths so far.
Jesus.

Ugh, cue religious fanatics ranting about the coming apocalypse. LOL. "OMG A NATURAL DISASTER! JESUS DONE BE UPSET WITH THEM JAPANESE OVER THEM FISH EATIN AND GODZILLA MOVIES I RECKON!" Living in the middle of Texas, I've probably got neighbors who are saying just that. |

At the very least, at least this isn't happening to another poor country like Haiti or Chile.
