1. Zira and Scar may be related

What is the certain relationships you think about?
No this is not based upon looks and descriptions nor attitudes.

You ask yourself: Who could be Zira's father? This is an interesting question. Could Ahadi have been her father? I don't really see any other male Outsiders

2. Where did the Outsiders come from?

In The Lion King 2: Simba's Pride you can clearly see the modest respect for Scar and Zira's desire for him. Where did they come from? Why didn't they help Scar in the battle at the end of the first movie? Who can Kovu's father be? This is a question I ask myself often. We never took notice of the Outlanders until movie 2

3. Could The Lion King 1 be based on the rapture?

The rapture is described in the book of Revelation to come when we don't care anymore. This could be the description of Simba's running away to live in Hakuna Matata. It also described a battle between good and evil. The rapture also explains how the mark of the beast would allow people to act freely while those without it were prohibited, much like how Scar refused to let the hyenas eat until they complied to his plan. Then in the bible it also says "the devil will be tossed into the fires of Hell" much like Scar's death, eh? God will return and save his people. Simba anyone?

#3 could not have been just an accident. There is too many similarities.

Personally, I don't think it really matters who Zira's father is. XD

Also, about the Outlanders, they were Pridelanders who remained followers of Scar after his death and because of such were sent to the outlands. Zira herself mentions how Simba "banished them to the outlands, where food is scarce, there is little water", etc., etc.
