I am somewhat surprised that there has been no mention of the disaster that is unfolding right now in China. They have received two years worth of rain, in just two days. The worst flooding in the recorded history of China. Entire villages and towns downstream from Beijing have been washed away, due to all the flood gates being opened in order to try to spare Beijing. There is no way to accurately assess the loss of life, but based on the video footage I have seen, it could potentially be in the millions. Water is overflowing the 3 Gorges Dam. The destruction of infrastructure, crops and homes, is absolutely devastating. This is going to have a fatal impact upon China's economy, and will have a ripple effect on economies around the world. There is a virtual media blackout concerning this biblical disaster. I wept as I watched this tragedy destroying the lives and property of so many. We are powerless in the face of Nature's whims. Although the Chinese government has tried to block the release of any video of this horror, there are plenty of them on YouTube. Watch the Water. Pray for the people of China.

First, I doubt this is nature's whim. It's probably weather manipulation. I heard there was massive flooding (again) but didn't know how grave it was. My prayers are with the people of China. May the departed rest in peace and the living recover well.
