Read medieval texts on the issue.

Yes, hoarding was viewed as a form of gluttony, avarice, and lust.

Define hoarding.

You do realize, don't you, that these last couple generations have been the only ones in human history to not plan ahead for a year's worth of food, to get you through to the next growing season and harvest?

At one point in the not to recent past and beyond, those who didn't do what we now label prep, were considered the foolish ones, and very likely, they did not survive.

It's a crazy world when what we do now what our grandparents did all the time is now condemned.

Did it ever occur to you that the government is intentionally painting preppers as hoarders for the purpose of putting pressure on them to not prep?

Its in their best interests to have everyone depend on them for their monthly food handout, doled out by the government, just like Saddam Hussein did and China does.

People who are free cannot be easily controlled.

People whose survival depends on the government handouts, can be.

You may want to rethink whose side you are on by advocating against wise prepping.

Old testament God himself doesn’t agree. I’ll stick with him over some Medieval theological theorist hundreds of years later.
