Texas Lake Turns Blood-Red. Does It Mean The End?

Sorry, this is a bit long (also, it may contain things not appropriate for children under 12)... :)

On the news this morning, they brought up a topic about a Texas Lake, which turned blood-red. All fish in the lake have died, only leaving corpse's behind. Most think it's a fungus, while others think it signifies the end. What do YOU think it means? There is a bit of religion in this quote, so sorry if it offends or such. I will edit it out if warned. :)

Quote:

'As if Texas’ drought wasn’t bad enough, it might be a sign of something worse, some Christians worry. A favorite fishing spot in West Texas has turned blood-red, cuing rapture-ready believers to claim that it’s evidence of the end of time.
The OC Fisher Reservoir in San Angelo State Park has dried up, with lonely fish skeletons left in the basin and the remaining water a deep red. It looks like a biblical plague.
“Together now (the dead fish) float in clumps numbering in the thousands in and around that small pool of water that remains — its surface stained the color of blood by the amount of death and algae inside,” wrote John Boyd, of the Midland Reporter-Telegram. “This is how a reservoir dies: Not to the slow and steady slurp from a municipal straw, not to a gentle dissipation into the heavens, but abruptly, in a violent battle by nature against itself.”
Begley quotes signs referenced in Revelation 16, saying “The second angel poured out his bowl on the sea, and it became as the blood of a dead man, and every living soul died in the sea. The third angel poured out his bowl upon the rivers and the fountains of water, and they became blood.”
It’s not unusual for pastors focused on the end times to search for evidence in the headlines. These scriptures are the same referenced by some when the BP oil spill gave parts of the Gulf a red sheen. From volcanoes to dead animals, check out other recent events that have been called “signs of the apocalypse.”

So what do YOU think of it?

I think it's nonsense. ^.^

Ok.
If you're "always proved wrong," then take it as a learning experience. Do some research into topics about which you want to debate before posting and take people's posts into account before you respond.<br /> The thing to keep in mind is that this is a debate/discussion, not a competition. Don't take it as an "oh, no, I lose." Take it as a sign that you need to engage in actual discourse. That's how we learn!
Ugh. I'm always proved wrong on the debate forum. -.-' Oh well. *sigh*
Not while they were <i>living</i>, so I don't think that really mattered to most.
I guess, but they still get fame fom it.
"<i>Pft! "Prophets" only do that for the mony. They never look to science FIRST for an explanation."</i>/<br /> <br /> Most prophets did their stuff long before science was advanced enough to even be able to look to. And I seriously doubt they made any money from it.
I'm not offended. I just have no idea what ":P" means in reply to what I'd said.
Sorry, I didn't mean to offend. Dx I just didn't know what to say.
Well...if this is an actual discussion, a reply other than an emoticon would really be the best course of action. Especially since this is the debate boards and you seem to disagree with something I've said.
What's not at appropriate answer? o_O
