Blondie, are you implying that the main reason they are now suggesting that disaster preparation is a good idea is because they lost some paperwork? š¤š±
I find their suggestion of having a go bag (I guess "bug-out bag" is too crude for their liking?) ready interesting. A normal person told to get a bug-out bag ready would probably watch a few YouTube videos on how to assemble one. But being so much about information control as the WT is, I can't see them encouraging the sheep to go off the plantation and watch any old video, especially not from the "Christian" preppers.
So, do they have their own guide(s) on how to make a bug-out bag? Do they have videos on disaster preparation on their website?
A further thought raises its head: everyone from Walmart to high-end survival/camping suppliers sell ready made bug-out bags, from a few dollars, into the thousands. Are there any entrepreneurial JWs providing third party bug-out bags to fellow JWs? The WT carts/trolleys are made by an approved third party provider, and AFAIK, there are all sorts of JW friendly items like bible covers and book bags sold online to JWs. So is there a WT approved provider of "Go Bags" out there*?
*I thought I'd ask the question before I went searching for the answer. I'd be interested to know, if such provider exists, if anyone here already knew about them.
