Doomsday movies...?

Haha heres another video from... you guessed it, Fox news talking about Survivalist's. That is something I doubt I would EVER see on any other mainstream news networks unless it was after some catastrophic event.

Well, we started out with discussing doomsday movies and we ended up with a reason why Lux Luthor may be going to hell after the real thing takes place. I hope I'm wrong about that.

🙂 You are. Hell is a story the nuns made up to keep us in line at the Catholic schools. They backed it up with rulers on the knuckles.
 
Glad to see someone in the news media giving suggestions on what to do when something bad happens. Most stations just try to constantly scare the heck out of you to keep you watching in your now wet seat. I still prefer to look at it from a different angle. If you don't want people to think you're crazy for preparing, use your preparations in a hobby or a sport. Camping and backpacking use the same supplies as preparing for disasters as well as give you the skills you need to survive the disasters. If you don't know how to live without electricity, you'll be in trouble if you don't get used to it first. Get your family used to it as well by relaxing in the great outdoors. If you don't know how to work a gas stove or have never used matches, you may burn your house down during a disaster. Learn how to use a manual can opener on a swiss army knife. Learn how to use a knife without cutting yourself. Take classes in CPR and first aid and safety. Practice target shooting or hunting. If you need a gun to get food or for protection, you won't be able to afford novice mistakes. Learn self defense. During Katrina, the police took away guns from law abiding citizens. If that happens again, how then will you have to protect your family? Much of what you need for any disaster is the knowledge of how to survive and the mindset to stay calm. Freaking out during a disaster will only make it worse.

Personally, I try to be prepared for disaster (as best as I can in an apartment). I probably have enough non perishable food and water to make it through at least a week. I have enough flashlights and batteries for my block to make it through a month. I have CPR training. I know how to use a gun, though I don't own one. I am a third degree black belt. I have been hiking and backpacking for over 10 years and have plenty of gear to survive in the wilderness as well as at home. I always carry a flashlight and multitool everywhere I go. Those that laugh at how prepared I am are usually the ones that come for help when something bad happens.

I just want to point out that CPR would be fairly useless in a 'doomsday' situation. You give CPR to someone who's heart has stopped. It is designed to keep a flow of oxygenated blood going to the brain while you wait for a defibrillator to arrive to re-start the heart. Without access to 999 ( sorry 911 over there ) and the arrival of an ambulance which, as it's the end of the world I'm assuming won't turn up, there's not a lot of point in giving it.

There are a few exceptions, people who's heart is still beating but they aren't breathing but that sort of situation is extremely rare and almost always requires an ambulance/medical team anyway.

I think most of us here are smart enough to carry flashlights but I personally do not carry a screwdriver. 🙂
I doubt you will see anything like that on CNN. :sick2:

I bet the guy talking about survival in that video has gone beyond mainstream news networks.

The world will not end in 2012. 1 Thessalonians 4:7 says that there will be people alive on the Earth when Jesus returns to the Earth.

However, Jesus said, "For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be." Matthew 24:21 and "there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places." Matthew 24:7

There are many signs and a few men of God that say that the Great Tribulation will begin soon, which will last 3 1/2 years until Jesus comes back. I personally believe that this Great Tribulation will begin in 2012.
Noah preached about the coming flood for 120 years and only 7 people believed him.

Jesus answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red. And in the morning, It will be foul weather today: for the sky is red and lowring. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times? Matthew 16:3-4

I think you need to get your counselling elsewhere.

With respect, that is the stupidest video I have ever seen on YouTube. I can't believe anyone would be able to watch more than 60 seconds of it. I'm sure it must end with Captain Spaulding making fun of you for wasting the time watching all of it, but I couldn't be bothered.

I didn't think you would. Fact is, Hollywood is full of occultism and they don't care about entertaining. Hopefully, sometime in your lifetime you will know why they made all these movies but it will take some effort.

Tigers, and Lions, and Bears....Oh My. :tinfoil:
 
Whether or not the government will take over, aliens will attack, Nuclear war happens, meteors hit the earth, or my Lincoln Continental Mark IV pollutes so much that all the ice caps melt. I believe that around 2012 SHF will still happen. Why? Well look at that stupid Y2K panic, it would only take even the stupidest person 5 seconds to figure out that is didn't make sense, but look how bonkers people went "stock piling and stuff" all because they though their computer wouldn't work. Now look at 2012, your computer isn't supposed to work "You Will Die!". It is getting 50x more publicity with a foundation that normal people will only find more bad news if they Google it. I think the biggest disaster that will happen around 2012 is a crash in the infrastructure. People aren't going to show up for work, buy merchandise they don't need to survive. People will panic all for nothing and that panicking "even if it only affects 15% of the population" can spell disastrous results for the rest of use🙁.

Although the Y2K rumors did not occur there was a networking of many computers. I do not think the world will end in 2012 but anyone watching world events knows trouble is coming.
 
Trouble is always coming. More so if you look for it.

Anyone watching Attilla The Hun's army approaching knew trouble was coming. Watching Idi Amin's troops coming in Uganda, the people knew trouble was coming. Anyone watching Napoleon or Hitler's armies approaching knew trouble was coming.

Rain is also always coming. Sunshine is always coming. Happiness and joy are always coming. Waves, birds, babies, horses are always coming.
