I do believe that I may live to see persecution of Christians. It is our main impetus for having the farm... so that if there is ever a time that belivers can not buy or sell and are hungry there will be a place to feed them. We've been made fun of for that by Christians and non-Christians alike but I think most of it is good natured... or part of the fear that considering such a world brings.
Where is your farm??

I would assume your stocking up on ammo too? (Don't laugh -I'm serious. We started.)

It is also one reason we got our solar panels, with the full intent of adding some manner of battery back up when it becomes even semi-affordable so we can keep our fridge and ceiling fans going during long blackouts.

Good old car batteries and a converter works fine. Hook the windmill/car alternator up to them, too.

BTW, persecution from fellow believers doesn't count. (Or does it? )
