North America After the Collapse
No I don't think it is or that it isn't. I was simply responding to
someone's bafflement that for a survivalist room no one seems interested in the issue of the collapse of civilization. My statement was that the post was crossposted to rooms that were not of that ilk. In response to the issue - I'm not so sure we are civilized. You are talking about a country that executes mentally retarded humans, imprisons children (and executes them), wants to teach the bible as science, crows about being religous and loving G~d while painting graffiti over G~d's creation and strutting about glorifying man's creations over that of G~d (ugly sentence)... There is a prayer (I'm really not into prayers in general since to me waving the flag or your religion in public is like making out on Main Street but...) the prayer says basically to work to change for the better that which you can, not to be brought down by those things you cannot change and to have the sense to know the difference. Humans (well all living things) adapt. If civilization collapses, those who adapt may survive. I may be a survivor, I may not be. I'm not going to ruin my life living it for the worse possible outcome. I wouldn't respond at all to this but I'm snow bound and bored.... and I like science fiction/fantasy DKat "Alan Connor" wrote in message link.net...

Many of us in rec.gardens and probably every room EXCEPT for survivalism are not all that in to planning for the end of civilization. We are having way too much fun in our gardens and doing what we do. Now if you want a hot debate that will cross all rooms and have everyone ticked off even at themselves bring up.... NO... I learned my lesson... I'm NOT going to go there.... Sighhhh, it passed. All is good. DKat I too love gardening. So you think that just because you aren't into planning for the end of your civilization that it isn't going to happen? :-) What's going on is being called the Great Recession. Unlike in the Great Depression, ailing companies can use cheap labor, and markets, overseas, and it is only the Middle Class that are dying. (Notice that the value of the Euro is so high that along with terrorism fears it has largely killed international tourism in the U.S. Care to guess how many Middle-Class folks lost and are losing their jobs because of this? And it is not going to get better. Quite the opposite. Inflation is going to continue at the same alarming pace. Soon you will not be able to afford a car.) As it progresses, you will, if you have any brains at all, change your mind. AC |
