I think you totally misunderstood what I was saying, so I will try to elaborate. Your analogy of the moral of the story is on point and makes a lot of sense.
I did not mention God, and the example that I used of Egypt and the plagues was an example of how history is/was written, albeit a basic one with no scientific knowledge or support. Recent studies have shown that the Nile "turning to blood" was probably as a result of an algae bloom which turns red and gives off certain toxins rendering the water poisonous.
I am not an opportunistic homophobe, but I do believe that the numbers of that diverse group are rising and have been throughout my lifetime. I do not know why but could it be "mother nature" trying to slow down the population growth of humans as ultimately and naturally on the whole do not procreate. Nature is a funny thing and I feel has a way of communicating without talking, like why do a group of woman who live in a close group all menstruate at the same time and if a new woman joins the group the sync in with the main group?
I would imagine small changes precede larger ones as the situation becomes more desperate, have you seen a map of what the USA will look like in 100 years if temperatures and water levels continue to rise how they are expected to? Or how the weather will change? The entire west coast becomes a desert, Miami is below sea level, the whole Mississippi valley is uninhabitable due to high temperatures and humidity, I believe the term they use is "wet bulb". The mid-west is now longer viable farming land and there is a n exodus of millions towards the north-east. Now that is frightening.
