It is very challenging to feel any animosity towards Preppers because so many of their fears are justified. Everybody is having concerns that are both artificial and natural, plus the 'end of the world' is coming up. Do you find it an issue of the preppers being a little crazy? Who is to say beyond doubt because the economy is located at an all-time low, authorities aren't working now days and there's always the menace of war. This is only the manmade problems. How about the fact that wildfires are obliterating homes everywhere in the US or famine ruining crops so there is a reduced amount of food for almost any one?
Are Doomsday Preppers Far too Prepared?
Many individuals think about the extent that many preppers are going to. Quite a few have shipped in dry foods with 15 year shelf lives and have armed themselves to the teeth. They already have guns for almost any room of the home to ensure that they will never be far from a handgun they could use for protection. Quite a few currently have gas masks and bomb shelters in case there is a devastating war or natural catastrophe. These people have a way out of their properties that can ideally lead to safety whatever the road they take. They are really ready or pray they are, for doomsday.
How about Non-Preppers?
Most non-preppers don't understand the mindset of the prepper. They think they are taking things to the extreme. Preppers on the other hand don't think non-preppers are taking things seriously enough. Non-preppers may not yet have been affected by unemployment, overthrown governments, food depletion or natural disasters. Some may believe they can shrug it off and expect things to get better. Doomsday preppers have as much trouble understanding why non-preppers don't take any action at all. They believe non- preppers are the crazy ones for not taking some measures to protect themselves and their families.
Why Consider Doomsday?
Many doomsday preppers believe that Christ is going to return very soon and life will be completely different. On the same note some people believe the anti-Christ will soon be in charge and that will be the end of life as we know it now. Not everyone looks at the religious aspect however. Some doomsday preppers believe it has everything to do with the Mayan Calendar which runs out in 2012.
Where do you stand?
What side do you tend to fall on? Do you expect life is going to change significantly and we will have to defend ourselves and protect ourselves? Do you think life will continue along forever although there may be some tight situations we will all have to deal with? Who knows with any certainty who is right. Maybe doomsday preppers know what they are doing. Since they aren't hurting anyone or breaking huge laws, they should be left alone to believe in what they want. On the other hand there may be nothing to all the talk of doomsday and no one needs to be that prepared. Only a doomsday prepper can decide if they are a prepper or not. No one on earth really knows the outcome
