You'll notice the title include the term confirmation bias. Basically if you start out with an idea (especially a conclusion), then look for evidence of it, you'll probably find it. Much of the focus now is on the plague of locust traveling throughout Africa and now into China. A locust swarm can spread out 40 miles, and travel 100 miles a day, and eat an entire farm in just a matter of seconds. What separates locust from grasshoppers is wings. These "grasshoppers" can fly. The problem could get 500x worse by summer. And if it is starting to spread throughout asia, what stops it from spreading into Europe? Hopefully the Bering strait is too cold and too far away keeping the locus out of north & south America and Australia. But maybe they will come here through ship. Remember in the USA we pay farmers not to grow food. I am not sure that this is a good idea-that might be like paying our farmers so we can't sell/give our food surplus to these countries being brought to ruin. In Judeochristianity there were the 10 plagues of Egypt. So let's explore these then and in the modern sense. >1 This is what the Lord says: By this you will know that I am the Lord: With the staff that is in my hand I will strike the water of the Nile, and it will be changed into blood. The fish in the Nile will die, and the river will stink; the Egyptians will not be able to drink its water.’” Exodus 7:17-18 Well at least the nile hasn't turned red....oh Wait it is when measured in infrared. ![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmTFXEnA7bQr5Z6hVDhjyKSgtdne7ZbvYb4oto4Eo1r5Zd/image.png) The Nile being red on such a scale luckily shows us there is abundant plant life. Maybe it is the deadly cyanobacteria. As far as the water Quality. The water is still the main source of water for some 80 million people, despite it being heavily polluted, stinky, and full of sewage and factory waste. The people drinking it tend to have poor health. The fish are dying too. >2 ‘This is what the Lord says: Let my people go, so that they may worship me. If you refuse to let them go, I will send a plague of frogs on your whole country. The Nile will teem with frogs. They will come up into your palace and your bedroom and onto your bed, into the houses of your officials and on your people, and into your ovens and kneading troughs. The frogs will come up on you and your people and all your officials.’”-Exodus 8-1-4 The frog pollution in Egypt has been in decline for a number of reported reasons. But elsewhere in the world, the poisonous Cane toad has become quite the pest; Namely Florida and Australia. these are all cane toads in Florida in a swimming pool. Australia has it much worse I hear. ![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmcAx8QGSncHjAyvAdnXvURjJAKbSpyYiEnZ4aXqp8Bfas/image.png) image source: wptv I don't really considered toads/frogs a pest myself, but the cane toad can kill dogs-maybe even humans. Also if I was driving in such an area, I wouldn't want to look at, nor be responsible for, the massacre of dead frogs in the road. They lay thousands of eggs at a time. So good luck trying to play the catholic church trying to stop them. >3 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Stretch out your staff and strike the dust of the ground,’ and throughout the land of Egypt the dust will become gnats.” They did this, and when Aaron stretched out his hand with the staff and struck the dust of the ground, gnats came on people and animals. All the dust throughout the land of Egypt became gnats. Exodus 8:16-17 Another word used instead of gnats is lice. Superlice, that is treatment resistant Lice, is found in 48 states. https://www.healthline.com/health/super-lice#causes And cases of Lice are up 30% in 2019 over the previous year. up 80% in certain parts of the USA. https://kutv.com/news/local/highly-contagious-lice-cases-up-30-nationwide-this-winter The word Gnat has a broad range of uses ranging from the black fly to the mosquito. https://www.dictionary.com/browse/gnat And Less we forget, David Hogg of Parkland, loves his mosquito because they kill billions of People a year and that's good for the environment. https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/6nx6wd/what_is_a_positive_reason_for_mosquitoes_to_exist/dkcwtnu/ Mosquito populations have increased reportedly 5x in 50 years in major US cities. https://news.ucsc.edu/2016/12/mosquito-populations.html Not sure I agree with this premise about urbanization increasing mosquito population. A mosquito in the city, outside of government, is a rare sight compared to the country. Must be the alternative they suggested, weakening residual DDT. But, the blackfly is also known as a gnat. I never seen one in the city, but their numbers are exploding there. https://www.independent.co.uk/environment/nature/revealed-the-rural-flies-with-a-taste-for-city-flesh-2091303.html At least ticks, despite Lyme disease, POW, and other diseases, aren't considered a gnat to be a biblical plague. >4 And the Lord did this. Dense swarms of flies poured into Pharaoh’s palace and into the houses of his officials; throughout Egypt the land was ruined by the flies. -Exodus 8:24 ![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmZm3B4odfAVV6jtxymQoChBXr64jZqJ7L7QpvEm8S4zRb/image.png) -Carolyn Kaster/AP ok, not really anything on this one.

Would be a shame if humans started to carry with these death rates. >While [the African Swine flu] rarely infects humans, according to the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE), it kills 80 percent of the pigs it infects....In South Korea, photos have emerged of a river turned red by blood from mass culls at pig farms and in Indonesia's province of North Sumatra, authorities confirmed some 5,000 pigs died from the virus last year. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2020/02/swine-fever-double-punch-countries-facing-covid-19-threat-200217050557166.html And chickens too with yet another outbreak a week ago. >However, the outbreak is a cause for concern because this avian flu has a 60% mortality rate among infected humans, according to WHO. Additionally, the H5N1 bird flu can cause severe respiratory illness, including pneumonia, and neurological changes such as an altered mental state and seizures. https://www.businessinsider.com/h5n1-deadly-bird-flu-emerged-near-center-coronavirus-outbreak-2020-2 >6 Then the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, “Take handfuls of soot from a furnace and have Moses toss it into the air in the presence of Pharaoh. It will become fine dust over the whole land of Egypt, and festering boils will break out on people and animals throughout the land.” -Exodus 9:8-9 ![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmWosihi7gxdqet4CVriM9cKMy82RWA2nUE4W5QUeKSx9K/image.png) Today we have super staph which is resistant to treatment. In super staph gets in you might be facing amputation or death. Staph alone was bad enough, but collectively staph now kills 20k people a year in the USA. Those who inject drugs account for 9% of the more serious cases. https://www.cdc.gov/media/releases/2019/p0305-deadly-staph-infections.html Your best chance of getting super staph is your health care facilities. >7 So the Lord rained hail on the land of Egypt; hail fell and lightning flashed back and forth. It was the worst storm in all the land of Egypt since it had become a nation. Throughout Egypt hail struck everything in the fields—both people and animals; it beat down everything growing in the fields and stripped every tree. The only place it did not hail was the land of Goshen, where the Israelites were. exodus 9:23-26 Over in charbroiled Australia, where nothing is spared from God's bbq grill, they had a series of hail storms last month with hail stones the size of baseballs according to the new york times. Other than broken windows and injured birds, the damage seems to be small. two years ago, it was a different story. 400 kangaroos and 150 goats killed by a hail storm in oz in 2018. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-10-16/hail-storm-kills-hundreds-of-kangaroos-and-goats-far-west-nsw/10382274 The Saudi deserts turned white with hail. ![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmRAvficUbkCqfSCL61z8B4YckmHJKaxzpZNRjcLSfGspb/image.png) -source world net daily And a child killed and 14 cows killed in swaziland due to hail. http://www.times.co.sz/news/121304-ten-minute-storm-leaves-one-dead.html In 2016, 300 reindeer were killed by a thunderstorm. https://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/31/science/lightning-strike-dead-reindeer.html in 2014, 500 cows were killed by hail in India and 1500 other farm animals. https://www.thecattlesite.com/news/45346/freak-hail-kills-500-cattle/ >"Fire and ice raining down on beast and man, mirroring the Biblical account of the Exodus. Prophecy predicts that the plagues of Egypt will reappear before the arrival of the Messiah. Could it be that is what we are witnessing?" Berkowitz asked. https://www.wnd.com/2018/12/bible-plagues-back-hail-with-fire-ice-covers-desert/ >8 So Moses stretched out his staff over Egypt, and the Lord made an east wind blow across the land all that day and all that night. By morning the wind had brought the locusts; they invaded all Egypt and settled down in every area of the country in great numbers. Never before had there been such a plague of locusts, nor will there ever be again. They covered all the ground until it was black. They devoured all that was left after the hail—everything growing in the fields and the fruit on the trees. Nothing green remained on tree or plant in all the land of Egypt. Exodus 10:13-15 I think this is pretty much covered in the intro. > 9 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward the sky so that darkness spreads over Egypt—darkness that can be felt.” So Moses stretched out his hand toward the sky, and total darkness covered all Egypt for three days. No one could see anyone else or move about for three days. Yet all the Israelites had light in the places where they lived. -Exodus 10:21-23 Outside of the polar regions, There are very few events that could cause darkness for such an extended period of time. About the only thing that could cause it would be a Volcanic eruption or maybe an yuge meteor/comet. ![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmexEN2bekrbwgBLxwq1ZjrxjUQzcCwTpS1bVaYjHggbaG/image.png) -mount pinatbu eruption 1991, source usgs.gov >"By 2:30[pm], there was total darkness in nearby cities. Power was also cut." https://www.rappler.com/move-ph/issues/disasters/96424-1991-mount-pinatubo-eruption but that was almost 30 years ago. That was also a normal volcano. North America now has at least 2 super volcanoes. One in Yellow stone, another just found in Utah said to be 30x as large. The USA has more,but they might be dormant. Maine of all places And about 12 days ago, news reports came out suggesting how the first signs of an eruption at Yellowstone might take place. >“The area 60 miles around the volcano would become a hazard zone, officials would place on alert the surrounding region up to 200 miles readying people for a violent eruption. https://www.express.co.uk/news/science/1238481/yellowstone-volcano-first-sign-eruption-overdue-usgs-evacuation-spt 8 days ago, sputnick news reported yellowstone could erupt in a week.

I should invite my should be mother in law in for a swim. Please, no one else try swimming in these-read the link if you dare. >10 So Moses said, “This is what the Lord says: ‘About midnight I will go throughout Egypt. 5 Every firstborn son in Egypt will die, from the firstborn son of Pharaoh, who sits on the throne, to the firstborn son of the female slave, who is at her hand mill, and all the firstborn of the cattle as well. 6 There will be loud wailing throughout Egypt—worse than there has ever been or ever will be again. 7 But among the Israelites not a dog will bark at any person or animal.’ Then you will know that the Lord makes a distinction between Egypt and Israel. Exodus 11:4-7 One observation is, God didn't quite favor the Jews who were vegetarian, had a fear of blood, or were opposed to killing animals considering the Passover. A disease that would kill the first born would be unlikely. The one who carried this out was Azrael; the Angel of death. Similarly in the ancient days the pagans would sacrifice their first born to Molech. Today we have one child policies in China, and it is baby girls who get the axe. Only 2% of the USA works in agriculture where there is near true freedom. The rest are worked and taxed, and some sacrifice their first children to abortion to get ahead in our urbanized slave cult. ************* A prophet might say God is trying to prove his existence, to let us know he is God. It's hard to say that without thinking of tamtampamela, but I am not going to make the argument that God is Good. I would be lying to everyone including myself if I said God was Good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jP-sSeqPywI -source as satire, tamtampamela But supposing God is sending a message to mankind. What message is God trying to send. What does he want us to do or not do. There are some universal laws that doesn't need necessarily divine intervention (cough, end abortion). The cultures that don't have babies will die off, be conquered, or enslaved-so Nature is perfectly capable of handling gay, trannys, ethots, waifus, cucks, incels, abortion, birth control, type people to extinction in a few generations. The American left is a culture of their own political death. South America, Europe, and much of north America have been let off easy. Why did Australia get hit with massive fires, dust storms, and hail? Much of the problems in the middle east seems that they haven't been or don't have the means to be good stewards of the environment. China...China hasn't been a good steward to the environment either. But china is torturing the people of Allah, and harvesting the organs of Muslims and the Fulan gong. And the Chinese owned American media are hostile to Epoch times owned by the Fulan Gong. (Is Justin Sun/Tron owned Steemit now owned by the Chinese?)The Chinese may be playing God by engineering biological weapons. Still Corona is nothing yet compared to staph or the ordinary flu, and scientist the world over likewise played God guiding staph's evolution, among others, through antibiotics. And what did those poor animals do to deserve God's wrath other than being man's food sources? Why should they be punished for the cruel ways that men treat them in life? To ensure that the survivors of the famine learns his lesson? How is that fair to animals? And in Closing, in regards to monkeys and bats (bush meat) they are not kosher. If more people adopted a vegetarian or Kosher diet, then Ebola and possibly Wuhan flu wouldn't have spread to humans. But maybe people will be dining on the desert locust for a while, and they just might be Kosher. Still not eating bugs.
