Does Jesus have extra gravitational pull that would disrupt the normal tectonic plate movement? Is there some sort of sympathetic heat exchange between the heavens and the earth's core? How would it happen?

The more I write, the more this sounds like something medieval monks would debate.

Inquiring minds want to know.

What I like about earthquakes is that if you survive, you get to talk about what a wild ass ride it was!

I have this recollection from the SoCal Northridge earthquake: The LA Times front page, above the fold, photo of the freeway transition lane that came to a sudden end, as in empty space, because a span had collapsed. It was of interest because the span had collapsed as an LAPD motor officer was approaching it and witnesses watched him sail out into the void, where Jesus did NOT a catch him.

I get extremely fatalistic while enduring the shaking and then when it's over I grin a lot and tell Saucie not to be a big baby and to get off my shoulders...

And that's why we have the Clarence Wayne Dean interchange at the 5 and the 14.

Tectonic plates move and plates grind together. Shit happens. God and Jesus aren't playing with their big model railroad.

It has to do with the continents coming back together again like they were before the days of Peleg, when mankind spoke one tongue,... Hebrew. We use to live on a place scientist call Pangia.

Except Pangea predates humans by hundreds of millions of years.

Except that isn't what is described in the BOM. You just made that up.

Mormon scripture states

D&C 133:23-24 "He shall command the great deep, and it shall be driven back into the north countries, and the islands shall become one land; and the land of Jerusalem and the land of Zion shall be turned back into their own place, and the earth shall be like it as it was in the days in the days before it was divided."

1 Chronicles 1:19 "And unto Eberwas born two sons: the name of one was Peleg because in his days the earth was divided"

Utah has so much concentrated righteousness that it has collapsed into a spiritual black hole. Neither intelligence nor ethics can escape the spiritual gravity.

People are urged to stay at least six miles from any MTC to avoid permanent intellectual impairment. It's a tragic situation.

Book of Mormon example. Massive quakes killed a ton of people. Jesus came - and no mention of rotting corpses, smell, disease, burials or anything you would expect.

Jesus kills thousands, tens of thousands and then shows up to Applause.

Transmissions from Kolob requiring the movement of a body and not just information unleash them.

In 1811 the transmission of Elohim and Jehovah caused this.

https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/the-great-midwest-earthquake-of-1811-46342/

They wandered around and had some meetings with John The Beloved, The Baptist, Peter, James, and John and the Three Nephites and then got around to going to New York to visit with their budding prophet for their restoration.

My guess is the recent SLC earth quake was the sending of The Urim and Thummim to replace Nelson's lighted pen for some more serious translating and revelating.

I think that is just Jesus' temperament shining through. He's always been sort of dramatic guy, with the miracle, fish, water, healing, temple outburst. Then there was the earthquake in the BOM at his crucifixion. I am just sayin' - he likes to make an entrance. And really that's fine, if that's the way you roll - good for you Jesus. Who am I to critique Jesus...he's a mover and a shaker. One in every crowd folks.

Moving from The Old World to the New world in the blink of an eye unleashed a lot of energy. It wasn't his fault. What was he going to do? Take a barge instead of descending in a beam of light?

Is Mr. Jesus an "As I have loved you" guy or a "death by earthquake & fire" guy? Seems like only in the scriptures can he have it both ways.

Maybe Jesus is just really, really fat.

He was spiritual and now he has a physical body. Regardless of how fat he might be after thousands of years of eating his bread of life (and being eaten by others) that body has mass and that takes energy to move. When Jesus dances maybe he moves the earth? He was supposed to have created it, the earth not dances.
