Mindlessly repeating your own incredulity, as if it does anything to make your assertion seem self-evident, when it manifestly is not, is nothing but a conceit on your part.
I understand the practice is common enough. Like some nutty Protestant trying to convince a Catholic he's really worshiping Mary (as if insisting to someone their REAL favorite color is something other than what they'll tell you when asked), but that doesn't make it any less absurd.
That the writer expresses a certain level of contempt for those he believes are being willfully obtuse about a coming calamity, is entirely separate from the idea that the writer WANTS the obtuse to suffer.
Try as you might, the two are entirely different propositions, and no amount of hystrionics on your part is going to conflate the two.
In closing, I felt compelled to tell you to "give it a rest" because it's just plain distasteful to watch someone continually trying to embarrass others over something they know they have nothing to be embarrassed about....
Sure it’s possible to misread somebody, and maybe that’s what I’ve done, but I don’t think so. There’s something about preppers that reminds me of the Rapture crowd. They’ll deny that they want to see the world plunged into calamity, but their body language gives them away. It’s clear that on some level they want it. Or like media bias. Liberals will deny it all day long but you know it when you see it, even when it’s not quite self evident. I think a reasonable person would agree that the article blam posted the other day crosses some kind of line into unhealthy preoccupation with the presumed horrors that are in store for non-preppers. And I think you underestimate how difficult it is for people to keep the two propositions that you mention separated. When they intermingle, you get something like blam’s article.
Nutty? Look up Semiramis. Mary was a fine woman but the woman on the end time beast is a whore. Whores are not particular of what they take unto them. It's not good to mix the truth with the abominable mystery religion of the ancients.
By the way I'm not getting why you want to mix religion-bashing on this prepping thread. There are enough trolls who just want to come to these threads telling us its easier to die than to survive through a little bit of hardship, than to deal with an anti-Protestant flame war.
