Experts Reaffirm Asteroid Impact Caused Mass Extinction
a large meteorite slammed into Earth 65 million years ago and caused one of the most severe mass extinctions in Earth's history, ending the age of the dinosaurs.
The fossil record clearly shows a mass extinction event across the planet at about 65.5 million years ago. Because this change is so dramatic, geologists use it to define the end of the Cretaceous period and the start of the Paleogene period (formerly called the Tertiary period). They refer to the time of the extinctions as the K-Pg boundary.

It's possible. Like I said- something to chew on. Not anything I'm asserting as fact. Wormwood CLEARLY comes from the sky so I do not see how it could be the BP disaster. I actually feel WM is the astroid/meteor. Also, WM clearly affects rivers and streams while the previous event affects the ocean- which BP does. So I do not feel it is WM.
I'm not really sure if the BP disaster is even the preceding verse but it is at least more fitting than WM.
What I feel is a bit more possible as being the preceding verse is the mountain in West Africa that is sitting rather precariously. Experts predicted it would fall from the coast and into the ocean one day which would result in similar effects prophesied in Revelation.
Buried impact structures, such as those found in the Gulf of Mexico, form favourable sites for oil, gas and petroleum reserves.

Dahlia Flower Meanings Dahlia’s are spicy flowers, and their meanings range from a sign of warning, to change, to travel, to even a portent of betrayal. The varied symbolic meanings of the dahlia make this flower a wild card. Give to that unique, eclectic person whom you wish to compliment his/her wild side. Combine them with slender flowers like irises or tulips for a striking visual display as well as a combined symbolic message that says “temper your adventures with a kind heart.”

I call Bull on this one. If anything it's a small coincidence. No prophecy in the Bible has ever came true. The bible has been "debunked" time and time again You are just looking for an excuse to convert people. Religious groups love disasters like this!
That has GOT to be the stupidest thing I've ever heard in my life, EVERY prophecy in the bible has come true and is coming true as we speak, just look at Israel! It's all in front of your eyes, if you're too blind to see it then I feel sorry for you.

WOW! This is a strange connection. I don't think its a coincidence. Even the MSM is reporting the connections between BP and revelations.
"If followers of the Christian blogosphere are not yet familiar with Revelation 8:8, they soon will be:
'And the second angel sounded and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea: and the third part of the sea became blood; and the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed."
