    Magnitude 5.3 quake off Greek islands, no injuries

    ATHENS, Greece (AP) — Greek authorities say an earthquake with preliminary 5.3-magnitude has shaken the southern Aegean Sea islands, but no injuries or damage have been reported.

    The Athens Geodynamic Institute says the undersea earthquake occurred Thursday between the popular tourist resort islands of Santorini and Crete, some 244 kilometers (150 miles) southeast of Athens.

    Greece is in one of the world's seismically active areas. Out of the hundreds of quakes that occur every year, very few cause injuries or damage, although a strong earthquake on the outskirts of Athens in 1999 killed 143 people.

      Just out of curiousity...how many earthquakes have to take place before non-believers give any credence to the Bible, in where it predicts (among many things happening today -more than in any time in history...and that Israel became a nation in 1948 - also, predicted) "earthquakes in diverse places'?
      Not arguing the validity of it, just want a number or situation where it may give you pause to make you think it may be true, due to current circumstances.

        the middle east has a huge fault that runs up the dead sea. it is very seismically active. of course a book about the awesome power of god would talk about earthquakes if it was written in a place where earthquakes happen. duh.
