Why prepping is pointless. Why you, the meek, won't survive.

I rented a decent movie from Redbox yesterday, Noah, starring Russel Crowe. The plot is basically the same thing you're describing, and of course, it's biblically based.



So, biblically speaking, Noah was the only righteous person left on the face of the earth, and for the sake of one righteous person, through him, God spared the human race.



Could society go full blown zombie apocalyptic in a SHTF grid down scenario? Sure, and I don't keep all of my preps in one location. Life is not without risk, and I would respectfully suggest that one not neglect the most important prep of all, spiritual.



We can't plan for everything, but we can put our faith and trust in God Almighty, the God and Father of the Lord, Jesus Christ, Creator of Heaven and Earth and all that is in them, and who is able to save to the utmost.



Who among us wouldn't do things differently if we had a do over?



"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come." (2 Corinthians 5:17 ESV)



I'll hang on to my preps, and continue to add to them. Whatever happens, I know I've done my best, and that includes not being a door mat for the zombie horde. If everyone prepped, it would facilitate forming communities post SHTF, which offers the best opportunity for long term survival. Those who haven't prepped are going to find it tough going, but the worst case scenario is going to be mind numbing difficult for anyone, since modern societies just aren't prepared to revert to 19th century agrarian practices. Bottom line for me, believe God.



"Behold, I am sending you out as sheep in the midst of wolves, so be wise as serpents and innocent as doves." (Matthew 10:16 ESV)



If you don't believe the truth of God's word, that's OK. You can still be thankful for those of us who do, remember Noah.



"And if those days had not been cut short, no human being would be saved. But for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short." (Matthew 24:22 ESV)



You might even take this opportunity to save yourself,



"because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved." (Romans 10:9-10 ESV)



I've been giving some thought to starting a Sunday morning prayer net. It would be awesome to use the technology to bring the Word of God to the amateur radio community, starting on one of the local repeaters, and eventually adding another net on HF.



Anyway, thanks for the opportunity to share a little bit about why I prep. It's doing my utmost for his highest. God bless and god speed.

Maybe, the Scots will secede from UK, and the yuan will replace the pound. Then there's this,

The UK wouldn't mind poking a finger in the eye of the US. WWII is ancient history for most, and US hegemony is being weakened.



I still like our chances better than most. IOW, is there any other country where you would rather live?



That being said, is there anything the average person can do to change the present course of international monetary exchange, other than being along for the ride? Then, why should the average person care?



How is the FOREX going to change the level of wealth and income inequality that is the current source of pervasive global social malaise?



It won't, so who gives a shit? Even though I agree with T4C's conclusion, "They cannot afford to play without Us.", neither is this a game.
