David505 said:
Revelation 8 may authenticate the appalling spectacle of an intercontinental nuclear exchange. In this regard, John compares the conflagration to “hail and fire mingled with blood (Rev. 8:7); a great mountain burning with fire (Rev. 8:8); [and] a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp (Rev. 8:10).†In fact, the fusion reaction is the same process that powers the stars. After a nuclear strike, weather systems distribute radionuclide derivatives throughout the environment contaminating the ecosystem’s air, soil, ocean, and freshwater supplies. “Wormwood†is from the Greek apsinthos (Strong 894), with reference to the bitter herb, Artemisia absinthium. In antiquity, folk preparations of the plant’s oily extract alleviated digestive ailments, fever, and infection. Wormwood–based concoctions also enhanced the potent liqueur, absinthe. Alternatively, an overdose of the active ingredients, santonin and thujone, elicits disturbed vision, tremor, and convulsion. The plant’s insecticidal properties benefit gardens. In scripture, wormwood evokes the mordant recompense of idolatry and infidelity: “Her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two–edged sword (Prov. 5:4).†In John’s context, wormwood is synonymous with “bitter†from the Greek pikraino (Strong 4087), meaning to make bitter, or to embitter in an abstract sense of piercing; for example, as the sharply acute calamity of poison rivers and springs: “many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter (Rev. 8: 11).†You can click the following links to learn about the devastating potential of nuclear weaponry:

dont bother miss quoting bible versus to me
Rev 8 v7 The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.
all the worlds grass burnt up and a third of the trees and you think a nuclear exchange. get serious
it is the super heated methane atmosphere of Wormwood mixing with Earths
Rev 8 v 8 says 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;
that description clearly indicates a meteor or asteroid type thing hitting an ocean
Rev 8 v 11 And the name of the star is called Wormwood and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.
And the NAME of the STAR is called WORMWOOD
Honestly, all you date-setters have learned nothing from "date-setting history". :yes
