How soon do scientists predict,and what’s being done about it ?
 
How will-can the government know if someone has been to confession or even what is confessed? I guess a government can ‘demand’ but how can they verify short of torture or murder. Should either one occur the church will go underground.

There really nothing that can be done.

Actually a method has been proposed to stabilize the Yellowstone supervolcano. Wells could be drilled near it, and cool water pumped into the wells, returning high-pressure steam to the surface. This would gradually cool and solidify the magma in the volcano. As a side benefit, the steam could be put to good use spinning turbines and generating electricity.

The engineering is challenging, as are the political barriers, but the science is well understood. The volcano gains heat from the deep earth at a rate of only several gigawatts, which is energetically equivalent to several electric power plants. It is feasible to extract this heat faster than Mother Earth is supplying it, and if we do so, the volcano will eventually cool down and solidify. It might take a few thousand years, though.
 
Do you know where that toilet 🚽 leads? Well I do! Straight into the depths of hell 😱
 
Unfortunately, Clementine now resides in Shadow and Flame… Normally, I wouldn’t reveal these truths; however, this Thread is for Doom and Gloom :frowning_face_with_open_mouth:
