It was Nikita Khrushchev who said in 1960 during one of his rocket-rattling rants that in the event of global thermonuclear war that “the survivors will envy the dead”.
“We will bury you” and “Your grandchildren will grow up under communism” were Comrade K.’s other best known quotes.
Anyway, do believers in the End Times (and I’m one) really need overpriced survival food? If one is raptured to be with the Lord, who needs beans? That’s for those who will be left behind, IMO.
If your plan is rapture-dependent, you will not need a whole lot of food in the pantry.
I believe in insurance. Even though I do not plan on have my car wrecked.
As a Catholic, I do not believe in the Rapture, and accept that good people may suffer with bad. Christ chose suffering, and if we can unite our suffering with his patiently all the better. There is nothing wrong with preparation as a general concept, but if your life is centered around it, the priorities might be skewed. In the meantime, I have a family to raise.
