19th agrarian practices aren't going to support the population levels anywhere in the world, but that is sure as shit where we're headed. Either that, or a totalitarian police state. Either way, there's going to be a whole lot less of us around. Mark of the beast?
"But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” (Joshua 24:15b, ESV)
One can analyze and even be successful in this world. Hussman can be 99% right, and still fail! Carl Sagan? FAIL!
"For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his soul?" (Mark 8:36, ESV)
"but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal." (Matthew 6:20, ESV)
The world system is a giant casino. Who needs any more proof? It is possible to win, but the odds are dead set against it. More power to you if you're successful and God bless you. If you're not, then at least take comfort in the fact you're not alone, that we are fellow workers with Christ, who died once and for all,
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life." (John 3:16, ESV)
What else is there to say, except that if it was within man to save himself, Jesus Christ would need not have died on the cross? The Apostle Peter spake thusly, on the day of Pentecost,
"And with many other words he bore witness and continued to exhort them, saying, “Save yourselves from this crooked generation.” (Acts 2:40, ESV)
From what are we saved?
"For God has not destined us for wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ" (1 Thessalonians 5:9, ESV)
"He who testifies to these things says, “Surely I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus!" (Revelation 22:20, ESV)
And finally,
"The end of the matter; all has been heard. Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man. For God will bring every deed into judgment, with every secret thing, whether good or evil. (Ecclesiastes 12:13-14, ESV)"
Why make things any harder than they already are? Amen!
