(A thread about animals acting strangely and how it means the world is ending):
Well, I won't say that I consider this evidence...but, just to contribute to this thread, the other day we were taking our walk down the trail and we saw a very large flock of vultures in the field near us...about 8 of them.
We assume there was something dead and they were feasting...BUT we didn't go and take a closer look (for obvious reasons).
But, they were circling us (including my young children)...and that was kind of wierd.

Wow, very large indeed.

Maybe it's clear to them that fundies have no life and are therefore carrion.
That's not weird. vultures are scavangers, idiot.
They simply thought you were at the end of you 'god-given' lifespan.
Ew, vultures are pigeons from Silent Hill.
Okay where the hell do these people live, by the way? If I were to go outside right now (I'm in the Chicagoland area), the odds of me seeing swooping vultures feasting on corpses are about 0.000000000001%.
What madness! But that's what vultures do and have always done, circle the proximity of food or what can be food.
@OhHolyHell probably the country somewhere dry, couldn't think of a specific spot. Lots of vultures in central California (or at least my region).
Okay, lets use Occams Razor here...
8 vultures in a field near by, and more circling overhead suggests a large animal has died. I'm going to guess a cow for this one. They weren't circling you. You, just by chance, had entered into the area where the dead animal was. How you got that this could be in anyway related to the Rapture is beyond me.
Yeah it's weird how vultures wanted to see if you were dead or not, since you are a potential food source for them.
And the other day I put food in my dog's food dish and he came and ate it!
WEIRD!
Circling vultures often indicate the end of something. If it were the world, though, there would have been a whole, whole big bunch of 'em flying in really, really big circles.
"But, they were circling us (including my young children)...and that was kind of wierd."
No it wasn't, they were waiting to see if you died. That's what vultures do.
Unless they're swooping in and trying to peck your eyes out, don't worry about it. They're fucking vultures, circling is what they do. Did it ever occur to you that it's spring? Mating season? Mating behaviour?
Then again, you probably think opossums leaping in front of your car is a sign of the end-times. Well I guess it is for them. Suicidal bastards.
Shortly after the Institute for Broken Minds threw my father's 25 years of loyalty back in his face, I was walking home from the library, and passed the IBM plant. Riding on the thermals over said plant were what looked like four very large birds of prey. I didn't have any binocs with me, so couldn't see exactly what they were.
But comforting my betrayed mind with the thought that they might just be vultures made me feel very warm and fuzzy inside for the rest of that day.
Vultures! Riding air currents that so happen to be above my family! The rapture is coming! The rapture is coming!
Jeez... I wish I had a penny for every friggin' fundie that said the rapture is coming. I would be friggin' rich!
Yes, flocks of birds can be a sign of the Apocalypse, as demonstrated about 45 years ago (see Hitchcock, 1963).
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
