Actually, there is an intriguing correlation between nukes and Revelation, but not the one Webdude is thinking of...
Please turn to Revelation VIII:10-11 : "And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters. 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." Wormwood, or apsintos in John's Greek text, is indeed a bitter plant that grows on riverbanks, and, in fact, a nuclear power plant was named after it because it was found in abundance near the river needed to cool the plant down.
You may have guessed where I'm going with this, for in Ukrainian, wormwood is named tchernobyl. Yes, I did check in many English-Ukrainian and French-Ukrainian dictionaries; that's one of the perks of being a professional translator. Need I draw the obvious parallels between the bitter, deadly rivers and radioactive fallout?
After close to 2000 years, we weren't even halfway through Revelation, which counts 22 chapters: in other words, it's far too early to rant about the End Times even by the Fundie's own book.
Next time you want to stump a typical The-End-is-Nigh! bible-thumper, you'll have some ammo.
