It’s simple, they are Karma rocks.

What goes around comes around............................

[BitWielder1]

It's hot. But don't try to blame it on human activity.

[Red Badger]

Why not, everything else is....................

Have you got a pictue, a ground scan, anything to prove what you claim?
Has any of this molten rock worked its way to the surface so it can be seen?
Is another supervolcano brewing to end the world, or are you just spitballing?

“Water lowers the melting point of rocks, similar to how salt lowers the melting point of ice”

A flood.

“The Laramide orogeny...”

They were doing that crap even back then?

[Renfrew]

The headline of the article isn’t very clear. It seems these rocks melted some 80 million years ago, but are now solid.

[one guy in new jersey]

Yeah. Cause if it was, it wouldn’t be an the origeny, but instead, something with three fewer letters.

[gundog]

Mega-flooding. The weight of the ice sheets must have played hell with the tectonic plates.

[right way right]

I saw rocks melting in my back yard and MT Rainer was laughing in the background.

It appears they’ve found an extremely sensitive zone of the earth.

“Geoscientists usually associate long belts of igneous rocks with chains of volcanoes at subduction zones, like Mount Shasta, Mount Hood, Mount St. Helens and Mount Rainer,” says Jay Chapman, an assistant professor in UW’s Department of Geology and Geophysics.

Yellowstone?

[SKI NOW]

The weight of the ice sheets must have played hell with the tectonic plates.

The Great Lakes are still rebounding.

Not a nba reference.

[MtnClimber]

I know! Global Warming! Where is my grant money?

[Diana in Wisconsin]

There’s DIAMONDS in them thar hills! (Most likely!) :)

[jmacusa]

Ah... have you been eating funny little sugar cubes?

[right way right]

No, I’m diabetic.
The governmentiswatchingme though.

Who cares, they are just rock. They have no feelings, no sense of belonging and have limited societal value except to look at in awe at the mountains that are formed out of them, or to be crushed for gravel for concrete or asphalt.

In my geology class we went on a field trip in southern Oregon so our professor could show us the difference between volcanic rock formations and rock formations formed from earthquakes and basically that every hill or mountain was the result of earthquake movement or volcanic activity.

I wonder about the scripture that say; “Hell Has enlarged herself” Could it be that the churning core is not a perfect constant but fluctuates and is actually slowing eating away the earth’s crust from the inside out? What would the effects be? An increase in earthquakes and volcanic activity? If this is indeed happening, did God create this to happen as part of his plan for the end time?
