What will Pat say?

it's always made sense to store supplies, even more so now. Hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes actually do happen.

Sure, it makes good sense to prepare for disasters.  But according to the Mormon doctrine on food storage, those who fail to conform wind up in the hands of Satan.  From D & C 78::

 

11 Wherefore, a commandment I give unto you, to prepare and organize yourselves by a ^abond or everlasting ^bcovenant that cannot be broken.

 12 And he who breaketh it shall lose his office and standing in the church, and shall be ^adelivered over to the ^bbuffetings of Satan until the day of redemption.

No dumber than the things the other denominations say will get you tossed to satan.

That  knee-jerk response qualifies you for the Totally Predictable and Utterly Uncreative Scoffers Club, which already has substantial representation on this forum.

Politics thinly disguised as a religious subject. Once more, for every idiotic idea one denomination has, there are ones to match them in the other sects/cults of religion.

I just can't subscribe to that "God is punishing you" belief. Robertson is famous for these type statements through the years though.

Sounds like something Bill Gray would proclaim.

I'm sure Paul Krugman would say it's good for infrastructure building.
