Pagan folk did this for millennia - it’s a human response (aka, human sin nature) to attempt to divine the future using natural phenomena around them.

It’s why you still have primitive isolated tribes more than willing to attack an outside visitor is someone in their village gets sick or dies - the same process of assigning blame and cause on the unusual.

It is a temptation to throw away one’s assurance in the Lord, that all too many easily fall for.

Reminds me of this:

“ Try Jesus, if you don’t like him, Satan will always take you back”.
