My answer deleted by Quora. My answer was restored by Quora: 13 March 2023:
The Weight Answer: The weight of not being public to a degree is far worse than being public to a degree. By being public to a degree you are hopefully inspiring, empowering, teaching and being positive in every possible way that you can. Think about it. What is the essential point assuming your an actual good person who genuinely cares? Since your secretly behind your computer monitor you can be honest with yourself. The point of being public to some degree is to save as many people as you can from suffering and dying? Yes or no. Well, if your personal answer is “no”, then you have that essential truth of the kind of evil person that you are. Because good people want to do good things for other people without payment, gratitude, public acknowledgements or recognition's. So there you have it. Being more public with wisdom and discernment like a biblical fox is necessary to ease suffering and death hopefully before it happens. Think about those words. Easing suffering and death before it has a chance of happening during and after any unfortunate event. Is the purest and goodest essence of prepping. (yes, goodest is on purpose).
This is beyond my capability of understanding. In the deep south. You do have all kinds of people with very specific gifts. I always wonder how and when a family is going through trials and tribulations. All of a sudden pies, cakes, cookies, huge pans of dinners, fried chicken, deviled eggs, sandwiches just suddenly arrive. Do these people just have already made food on hand? Just waiting for a localized emergency event even if it is just some emergency family event. Southern folks do not go to the store to get the food. They make it. How does that happen? Why does that happen? This is another principle to prepping and having a very intimate knowledge of your essential skill sets. The old woman who is known for baking awesomeness does what her gift dictates.
Prepping Defined Answer: Every reasonable person should have some kind of prepping activities as there is no place on this planet which is free of dangers or any kind of threats. So because of this. Everyone should be prepping. Prepping is not a psychological disorder as put forth by the TV show Doomsday Preppers. Prepping is how people survived prior to the industrial age. When there wasn’t any refrigeration, transportation/Logistics, Electricity or gas/oil products. When there wasn’t any grocery stores or big box stores or Amazon or delivery services. When there wasn’t the huge number of restaurants. The act of prepping is a historical occurrence in all of human history and in every culture. In many localities of today prepping isn’t even thought of as prepping. This is because the people in the northern climates have known for generations that to have all of their necessities for many months at a time is how you not die to death in the cold(serious humor).
Communications Benefit Answer: By communicating the necessity of prepping to any individualist defined degree or capability. The stresses upon the actual full time prepper shall be lessened. The more the prepper communicates with their own family members, friends, church members and community. The less weight of feeling like you have to prep for all of your loved will become evident. This is also evidence of a good person. One who has already prepped for their loved ones, family, friends and church community. Can you imagine the impact on a person when you tell them in confidence/secret that you have already made a safe place or safely stored away food for them. By telling a person this does not remove them from their own responsibilities of prepping. They should also be prepping for themselves and their loved ones as well. So that when everyone within your own personal world is prepping for each other. The idea of food shortages of any kind or duration is not a concern to be feared when it is repeated on the news often. So by communicating to everyone the importance of prepping is beneficial to the whole and to the more serious of all preppers as that is weight of responsibility is lessened or lifted.
Outward Teaching Benefits Answer: The more a person, a family, a church, a community teaches and expects people to do and have preps. The greater chance the whole will survive any unfortunate calamity. The teaching of how too;s and the teaching of skill set development is essential to how the whole will do more than survive any and all calamities. Think about this. I’m not female but live with two. How does a female of child bearing age take care of herself when there are no longer any clean products? How do you make clothes/shoes when your not growing wool plants or raising cotton animals(humor)? How do you make rope and baskets? How do you make anything else from apparent nothing? What is companion planting and why is it important? Especially when fertilizer, herbicides and pesticides are no more. The more people know and have achieved a functional skill set level. The greater chance the whole community shall survive. The more the people are empowered the less weight and stresses will be upon the individual prepper. Who already feels like they have to do everything. The more the people are taught to do for themselves. The less likely they become a helpless drawback or a violent drawback.
Benefits Of Layering Answer: The idea of prepping should be layered. Which means the first layer is the individual family is prepping for themselves. The second half of the first layer is the individual family is prepping for their loved ones, friends, surprise guests, church and community. The second layer is the church prepping for all of their member families. The third layer is the community is prepping for their entire community. The forth layer is everyone prepping for surprised guests. When each layer is doing their part for the benefit of the whole the idea of food shortages or hunger is not something to be feared. This is not just about food storage. This is about raising and growing food sources and resources. This is about if one tree is taken to be used and it does not matter the disposition of that tree. That tree must be replaced with ten more resource trees. There is infrastructure involved. There is the need for preindustrial skill sets which must be learned. The more people at every layer who has the most preindustrial skill sets. The greater their chances of survival, just in case the worst happens however that is defined by you.
Churches Benefit Answer: I have studied all of the rapture ideas and have concluded that God is gonna do what God is gonna do and He does not care if I agree, disagree, or understand. I have also studied Noah, Moses and figured out that the people had to live through the ordeal even though they were protected. Lots family was save and protected until sin found Lots wife. Lots wife was saved until she wasn’t. This is also a serious concern for the churches. Churches should be encouraging all of their members to prep. The physical buildings of the churches should have functionally engineered basements. With their own hidden water sources. The churches should be a storehouse for all people. So yes, the churches should have more involvement of their members and it should be expected. The churches should have their own farm land, fruit and nut trees, vegetable plots and natural safe cold storage.
Beneficial Churches Left Behind Answer: No matter the state before or after a rapture, When a rapture happens or if it is just a false teaching. When a church has made all of their preps and their church is an actual physical and spiritual safe building engineered to withstand all local emergencies. The beneficial message left behind will be crucial as those who are left behind will still find safety and sanctuary in a holy place. Then when and if most scholars are wrong and there is no rapture of the living and the people will have to live through the bad and sad prophecies. Their actions will go a long way in helping non believers and evil doers in becoming one of the last believing faithful. Think about it scholars.
Community Beneficial Micro Economies Answer: Those communities and churches which have established their own independent and interconnected micro economies. Will have the better chances of survival any kind of national or global economic down turns. This does mean that the people of the communities and of the churches must freely decide to only by products and services from their exclusive church and community micro economies. The people must stop buying products and services from any outsider where the wealth leaves the community. Such as all of the big box stores which can have a degree of foreign ownership.
The Drawback Answer: The more you focus on going it alone during and in the aftermath of any emergency. The greater your chances of dying alone. Your actions of going it alone is in direct contradiction of the laws within the animal kingdom and of human history. The larger the community of like minded individuals. The greater the chance that they all can survive. Even when being surrounded by predators who only desire to consume you. Desperate people will do desperate things.
Preparing for an unfortunate event is not as important as after the unfortunate. Where as more people suffer and die after the event than during. What is the point of having hours or days of water and food while safely tucked away in your shelter. Only to die of thirst and of hunger after you have exited your safe bunker. How will you survive if the growing season doe not begin for another 6- 9 months? What happens if you experience crop failures? How will you and your loved ones not starve to death?
There will always be people who do nothing and who will never become self empowered. It is they who in their won sense of self desperation who may act out violently. Then in that extreme environment where law, order, justice and civility have been taken away. You will be forced to stand your ground and bring forth a more exactly force of violence much quicker than what has been presented to you.
Your safety and security will be on your ability to hide and keep your safe and secure space hidden from strangers, outsiders and other unknowns. You will have to hide your own water sources as you mitigate all sounds and vibrations from the pumps used.
If you have not planted every kind of wild, natural, heirloom, antique edible plant everywhere you secretly can. Any kind of food shortage or starvation will have an impact upon you, your loved one, your church and your community. When everyone is secretly planting food sources. Everyone shall be benefited. When no one is removing their own ornamental plants and replacing them with every kind of edible plant, bush and tree fro your specific growing region. Then this shall be a drawback.
This is way above my pay grade. An economic drawback is where there is no established micro economies. Your family, your friends, your church and your community will economically suffer greatly when there is any kind of national or global economic down fall or financial collapse. You will be victims just as you each are currently watching your own retirement accounts become smaller and smaller right now. Churches and communities which have not become their own economic cells would be a drawback. The idea of cells is related to cell phones as all cell phone towers stand on their own but also are interconnected with other cell phone towers.
The mentioning of any corporate businesses or entities is not a promotion of any of those entities mentioned. The mentioning of bars and pubs is also not promotion or acceptance of drinking any kind of alcoholic beverage of any kind. Establishing your own micro-economies should use the same laws as which is used by exclusive golf courses, COSTCO, Sams Clubs, Eagles Clubs and any other exclusive club in existence. How do the purest Amish and Mennonites do what they do?
To avert all of the coming bad and sad prophecies. We each must decide to do the following everyday, every hour, every minute and every second.
