End of the World?

Lately there has been a seemingly overwhelming uprise of severe, life taking weather.  There are religious fanatics claiming these are the end times and God is letting His wrath reign, and there are science fanatics who are saying this is merely an uprising of documenting technology. It's a question that we have seen being stirred up everywhere from weather.com to facebook, etc., and it's a question that is not easily answered.  In the Bible, God seems to speak of severe weather that will be seen in the "end times":

"... and huge hailstones, about one hundred pounds each, came down from heaven upon men ..."
(Rev. 16.21)

"Thou shalt be visited of the Lord of hosts with thunder, and with earthquake, and great noise, with storm and tempest, and the flame of devouring fire." (Isaiah 29:6)

"And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth: and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake." (Rev. 8:5)

One can see why some one may see these bizarre weather changes as an act of a Divine being.  Science disagrees with this religious theory and counters it with statistics, documentation, and modern technology.  Some scientists claim that the increase in severe weather patterns is purely due to the advances in internet use, media broadcasting, and the ability to document weather like we never have been able to before.

The "Enhanced Fajita Scale" is a recently updated version of the tornado measuring F-scale.  This has given meteorologists a new perception of a tornado's power, strength, and duration.  Also, the new awareness that SKYWARN has given to the general community may add to the number of tornadoes that are documented.  Most tornadoes in the past have gone unnoticed, undocumented, or unrated because of the lack of technology.  Could this be the reason behind the significant increase in numbers?

One can suppose that whether you're a science fanatic or a religion fanatic, the answer will never truly be revealed.  We will dig for an answer when all we come up with are theories and beliefs.  Instead of looking for the answer to an unattainable question, we should be looking for answers for those who have been seriously affected by these unusual and deadly natural disasters.  Perhaps praying and brain storming is just not enough, we need to act, we need to respond.
