Most of the 70s survivalists were Mormons.
I can “head for the hills without the suitcase” easily, since we have a ranch in the Sierra that is fully equipped. That is not the real issue WRT what I posted. There is something wired into most of us that inclines us to want to “rough it.” That’s ok, but don’t let it take control of your life.
If you say so....and even so, so what?

Well bully for you.

Oh yes it is, since you are the one who quoted scripture about doing such things. Starting at post 199. In post 203 you were reasonable and sensible and then you blew it in post 205.

My idea of "roughing it" is a motel without an attached restaurant or room service, and most people I know have a similar attitude. And that is just the folks I know who live out in the rural nowhere land where I live, I won't even discuss my city friends and acquaintances.

Where you see such an attitude on this thread is totally beyond me. All I have seen is a group of folks discussing being prepared for various scenarios.
You, on the other hand found fault with others who make preparations claiming they are going against scripture, all the while being prepared yourself for a possible natural (or manmade) disaster. That is more than just a bit hypoctritical in my book.
“Most of the 70s survivalists were Mormons.”
I would like to see your evidence for that, I considered myself a part of the survivalist movement then and I never read or heard about it.
