Have you already or do you plan to prepare for an apocalyptic state in the United States? Why?
Many signs point toward a potential apocalyptic event coming, including prophesy in the Bible. Preparation for this type of event could make or break a person's ability to survive. Have you made any preparations?
Why bother living in that world, when this one isn't going so well itself.
I want to live, and not survive.
Unfortunately, for billions of people in the world today, they already think they are in the apocalypse.
You are living in that world, whether or not you care to admit it.
I am living in Chaos here that has existed since the 70s, but not the apocalypse found in the 3rd world countries. If you don't see the difference, then that is a problem.
Well, while I don't feel our world today is great by any measure, it is not yet apocalyptic. Thanks for answering!
Absolutely not. And I believe in America's downfall in the future. I should be preparing, but I haven't gotten around to it.
I agree...it is in the future. I began as a "joke", then continued with one item each week. I'm not prepared by any means, however.
I have no intention of surviving an apocalypse. I already have a poor opinion of the human race, and I don't imagine the end times will bring out the best in people. I think I have half a bottle of Vicodin left over from when I had surgery. I'm sure that and a bottle of wine are all the preparations I need.
Revelations 9:6 states that people will want to die but will be unable. The human race is flawed. We all fall short. However God provided a way out of it all through Jesus Christ.John 3:16 tells us that believing in Jesus gives us eternal paradise.
Economic collapse under socialist Sanders - just following example of Venezuela and other socialist totalitarian states, so reasonable
Economic collapse under Clinton - less likely, more a slow to no growth scenario with a growing population entirely due to immigration, so quality of life goes down as society fractures but not apocolypse
Under a true conservative, economy rebounds as it did under Ronald Regan, though the media will suddenly start reporting on the homeless and the 15% unemployed / under employed / on disability to make what they didn't report under eight years of Obama suddenly look like the new guy's fault
Exactly! My preparations came following the tornado that struck Joplin only a few miles away. It was a challenge to go days without electricity. Preparing for an unlikely event helps everyone. Politically, I don't think anyone believes news anymore.

Would humans really be savage and brutal in a post-apocalypse scenario?In most post-apocalyptic scenarios you see, (Mad Max, Fallout, The Road, etc.) people band together in violent groups that live only to kill and raid. Do you think this is realistic or do you think people are more inherently...

What preparations are you making to prepare for a predicted global disaster in 2012? In history, the Mayans predicted on 12/21/2012 all planets will line up with the sun. This could create global effect on all our resources which are electrical, mechanical, digital, and nuclear. The Bible...

Survivors of the apocalypse, if anyone can hear me, tell us about your experiences in the aftermath of all the destruction... day one: I ran into some strange blind guy named Eli. He is taking a book to the coast. Everyone is trying to kill him for the book. It doesn't matter though because...
