which most obviously forewarns us of the possible
advent of Doomsday. The interior of the earth is, in
fact, composed of red-hot semi-molten magma,
which is ejected periodically through volcanic
activity in the form of lava. Sometimes strong
vibrations of the earth’s crust can also be felt. These

the cooling process which has been going on for
aeons. From time to time, the wrinkling of the
earth’s surface assumes gigantic proportions and
the resulting earthquakes are like a unilateral attack
of nature upon man in which nature definitely has
