    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9SSsL2K4H54"]YouTube - Mass animal deaths since the start of 2011

    Plus, what´s the current death toll in Japan?

    (2012 comes in 8 and a half months... Just saying)


    I´m not saying I honestly believe that the end is here, but another event or two in the next couple months could convince me..


    EDIT: It´s not just the one event, there are several other that come just after 2:30.

    Some say the end is near.
    Some say we'll see armageddon soon.
    I certainly hope we will.
    I sure could use a vacation from this

    You may say I´m a dreamer,
    But I´m not the only one.
    I don´t really care if you join us..
    It won´t really matter when we´re all gone.:2thumbsup:

    Whats gonna be next? Surely someone has foreseen this. I wouldn't be too worried unless a cataclysmic event starts to happen on every continent.

    that´s what I found so distubing about the video.. The mass animal deaths are happening everywhere.

    And I agree, the video and Japan aren´t enough to convince me of anything, but if we start seeing more of of these types of events in the near future, I would consider the posibility.

    Well one thing I strongly believe is that humans have treated this world like shit since oil came into the picture. Sooner or later everything is going to come back around to bite us hard. Before I even saw that video the evidence that species are dying world wide is down right scary. I don't think a lot of people realize how serious some things are.

    The earth is 4.5 billion years old at least. 99.9% of the species before us are extinct. Our time will come either way, and that is something we will never have any control over.

    well, by ¨

    ´end of the world´

    I really mean,

    ´end of the world for us´

    The earth, (and probably life) will be around long after we´re gone.

    The Fuck? I haven't heard about this. Scary/weird. The weird part is they don't know why they are dead.

    you can make anything sound stupid.

    Millions of animals have suddenly died in the span of a few weeks for a completely unknown reason all over the world. A massive natural disaster has just killed thousands of people. An ancient calander that has been relativly accurate throughout history ends next year. (Seriously, don´t discount my argument because I´m bringing that up. I´m not using it as a major argument. I just think it´s an intresting sidenote.)

    Fuck thats bullshit if the world is ending next year. All our parents fucked us over for handing us down "doomsday". I don't really believe it will be though. I am sure my hope for it is inluencing my guess though.

    haha, like we won´t fuck the planet up even more if we get the chance.

    Now that I think about it, ´end of the world´ is probably a poor choice of words. The whole idea of ´doomsday´ or ´the apocolypse´ seems so cliche. If there´s anything to this whole idea, I think it would be a drastic loss of life, and a completely different way of life for those that are left.

    theoretically speaking.. Those that support end the world, One concept would be if we're all gonna die, why bother caring for the material things around you. Just lay waste everything you can....

    This song gets me though... jump out a plane, and ride a wild bull..
    nothing like wasting fuel in an airplane, and abusing a poor animal before you gonna die. Why not go Llama punching too !! [​IMG]

    Millions? That was a commercial news broadcast and they showed a few birds lying on the road. They played dramatic music to make you think it was important. Not saying it can never be true but people have been getting sucked in to that kind of thing by these people for thousands of years.

    the animal deaths are strange. we don't know the cause though.

    this video is misleading. for one, the fact that they are playing ominous music with a tolling bell suggests that they are trying to scare you.

    they ignore any rational explantions of some of the animal deaths. for one thing, if you read the caption for one of the fish kills, it says something like "cold stress" is to blame. They don't mention that.

    They show a news clip about cows dying, but they cut off the part that sounds like it is about to explain why.

    They show video of the news lady reading off all of the animal deaths, but they don't show video of the scientist's answer.

    If a particular kind of event catches people's attention, then stories about similar events get more news coverage. This can create the illusion that a particular type of event is more prevalent. Events similar to this have happened in the past, but haven't shown up on the world news radar.

    I'm not saying the deaths of the animals is not a cause for concern, but I don't think one should jump to any conclusions.

    We fixate on death our entire lives because of its inevitability and we’re helpless to do anything about it :( Fine I understand that but why everyone else is so damned anxious to take everyone else along with them :eek:
