Horseshit.  The English bible, which is a book written by man and
translated by men, makes vague allusions to a "bear", which is a
modern metaphor also created by men, and the stretched scenario you
and other twits attempt to draw from it is yet another one interpreted
by men.  Thirty years ago, the biblical "prediction" was of a war
between Russia and Red China with the yellow race taking over the
world.  Then is was a worldwide AIDS plague.  We can lay these
besides other biblically-foretold end-of-world scenarios, which
include global floods, asteroid strikes and the sun burning out.
With biblical references to "firey places", wildlife critters and
unleavened bread, I on the other hand believe that the Bible
clearly predicts that everyone on the planet will die from eating
a bad burrito.
