I'm not going to lie...I thought preppers was another word for preppies.
 
Am I the only one who doesn't commit all his mental energy to fantasizing about the apocalypse? If that is indeed the case, and I am mad or foolish because of it ... so be it.
 
To be fair to Zero, is it really stealing if everyone has abandoned their stuff and it's just sitting there? I mean, for example, if it is a Zombie Apocalypse, basically the owners of those things could be a zombie and therefore not really alive. So, it is something to consider. Maybe Zero means he will "borrow" these things.
Ahhh true...borrow. Never thought of that. lol

Er...no, you're not.

But being prepared for something and being obsessed over it are completely different things. Burying your head in the sand and ignoring the possibilities is just...I'ma go with 'naive' here.

I'm sorry Cris...can you repeat that,my head was buried in the..oh....nm *camera pans out...tumbleweed rolls by...and cut!*
 
Zombie shmombie,.. I hate the idea of a zombie apocalypse,.. Idk who brought it up but that notion should have no welcome place in the Christian community. Because of what's really going to happen, zombies are the least people should be worrying about lol. As for the stockpile preppers,.. Their efforts are futile as they will have all their food taken away by the government of the Antichrist if they do not comply. The ONLY way to survive the Great Tribulation (aka apocalypse), is by enduring in Faith. Just as the Israelites, we will have to rely on the pure grace of God to sustain our lives in such calamity. We also have to accept the possibility that endurance may not be our destiny. Brace yourselves for severe persecution, even martyrdom, for the name of Christ.
 
Yeah... The company 'OpticsPlanet' is a good company...they came up with the Zombie Kit idea as a sorta joke... No telling if they've actually sold any.

It was a JOKE???????!!! :eek: I was trying to find my credit card!!! *disappointed*

Total paranoia is total awareness, is that it? :p

If I "refused to ignore the possibilities" I think I'd still hospitalized and under suicide-watch, in a lockdown psych unit. I'd be taking a lot more medications than I'm taking now and there probably wouldn't be any joy or peace in my life. I may have even succeeded in committing suicide by now.

Aw, come on, you wouldn't want to be the Daryl of the group? You'll get a cool bow shooter thingy.

I do occasionally daydream about this, but it is a very unhealthy thing to daydream about as it can lead you into a private hell of your own making.
 
Those preppies would be more helpful than the preppies that first sprang to my mind, Julianna. Here the very first year of schooling when you are 5 years old is called 'Prep'. So, we call those cute little prep students 'preppies'. Here I am envisioning a bunch of 5 year olds in a zombie attack!

Lol, no my dear. I'm only a fan of resident evil zombies, even then it's just for fun. But I don't like entertaining the thought of an actual zombie apocalypse,.. It's much more beneficial if you entertain the truth[: ya know?
 
Lol julliana .. I have seen guys like this turn into something completely different in disaster events ..
I have also seen people I thought would be first on the scene of blood and gore be completely paralyzed not able to move into action ..
I'm laid back until a disaster or an emergency occurs .. I then kick into full throttle ..
I think knowing these things about people is important too.. Ya might want to stick granny up front with Rambo..
I love to fish and love to hunt .. I'm bringing my crossbow and gilley suit!
make fun of me allllll you want lol

It's all in good fun, I'm not expecting an actual Zombie Apocalypse.. although that one crazy guy in Miami did make me pause for a second and wonder what was happening. lol
 
Ive been on craigs list ... Have you guys ever seen how much construction and building marerlial they give away for "free" on there?

Lol yeah, I know[: I just like talking about what's actually gonna happen instead[: I find that to be more fun. But that dude in Miami,.. I'm convinced was possessed.
 
We have zombies now .. ( if you look, marriages have the hand( women) beating up the head (husbands) and the head (husbands) dragging their legs (children who will take care of them in their elderly years) around .. it's already going on if you look at it spiritually . Not knocking anyone down just sharing what I see spiritually happening ..
Branches not connected to a vine die slowly . But do die
It's already happening folks .. Watch carefully who you attach yourself too..
 
I read a study not long ago ... It stated that men who are properly connected to god have a 99% chance of bringing the rest of their family to Christ .. In broken homes with women being the head properly connected.. 10%
