I’ve long felt that the “lone prepper” was dystopian in more than one way. Not that one shouldn’t be able to do that, but there’s a humongous factor that’s gotten short shrift here: the Lord. Who makes the audacious promise of always furnishing, as asked, what’s necessary to glorify His name. Always. Always. Always. There’s your cornucopia. Don’t despise Him!
I think a church would be the ideal unit to prep. And that they should prep in such a way as to be able to take on at least a limited number of unplanned extras, putting usefully into play the work of the others. But most of all they should prep with the gospel once a reasonable amount of physical provisions have been stored.
Regardless of what one may think of their theology, the LDS folks are wonderful resources and an inspiration in regards to prepping. ‘Been there, done that’ f0r what, five generations?. I don’t need to be a Buddhist to learn Kung Fu :-)
