More world population to get whacked
A table from U.S. Census Bureau: Page not found showed the world population in 1950 to be about 2.5 billion. In 2005 it is estimated at 6.4 billion. So, simple arithmetic shows an increase of 3.9 BILLION potential victims since 1950 of fire, flood, famine, earthquakes, tsunamies, hurricanes, tornadoes and appalling auto depreciation rates.
You don't have to increase the frequency of disasters to kill more people. They're already there.

Population more than a factor

Yes, the population increase factors in, but meteorologists, foresters and other professionals are seeing more to it than that, according to my research.
If more people build their homes in the path of hurricanes along the Gulf Coast and Florida more homes get blown away.
If more people build their homes in tinder-dry canyons in California, more homes get burned.
If more people build their homes in old growth forests in the Northwest, more homes get burned.
If more people build their homes on or near fault lines, more homes get knocked down.
Think Pakistan - If more people insist on REBUILDING their homes on the same fault lines where earthquakes killed their great-great grandparents, GUESS WHAT?

And what's so magical about 1948? Oh, wait, I get it. That's when the modern state of Israel was born. Prophesy fulfilled, right?

Ends of the Earth Disclaimer

Jesus said his gospel would be preached unto the ends of the earth, and then the end would come
Well, there you are. Since the Earth is a sphere without "ends", then the "end" will never come.
