Their view it as a way to punish those that don't closely follow their fallacy system. There, the non-followes are dying in molten lava, that will teach them not to believe with I believe, die die die you miserable non-fallacy followed, severs you right

Likely something to really mess with their minds, like "the world is about the end in a very violent means, but in the mean time do your home work, brush your teeth, and get on your knees and grovel to be forgiven". Oh you didn't do anything wrong that needs to be forgiven, well you better grovel anyway, Mr. deity can be very easily offended.

There is physical abuse, and there is mental abuse. Mental abuse is the cruelest, as the scars are deeper, devastating, and last a lifetime.

We don't have to be Christian, but to understand a fireball in the sky, we have to read the Bible?

If it was a meteor, 15 minutes would have meant nothing. A meteor that takes 15 minutes to travel through the atmosphere is large enough that it would impact in those 15 minutes.

On the other hand, I've heard of certain astronomical phenomena that create fireballs, though they're fairly rare and we don't know exactly how it happens.

If, however, it *is* extraterrestrial life -- well, you'd expect a race that's mastered interstellar travel to be able to plot an entry angle in a halfway-competent manner, and if it was a UFO, that fireball kinda indicates otherwise....

I honestly don't know.
