Broken civilizations get rebuilt at the local community level as families, businesses, churches and small civil governments begin to learn what those local institutions can be. That is happening right now in the US, primarily in rural counties.

We explore real-life reformation here in this informed, online community.

IT IS ILLEGAL FOR FEMA TO INTERFERE IN ANY PRIVATE CIVILIAN RELIEF EFFORTS IN A DISASTER OR ANY OTHER TIME.

IT IS MANDATED TO ASSIST CIVILIANS.
FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) does not have a legal mandate to interfere in private civilian relief efforts. Instead, FEMA’s role is to coordinate and support federal disaster response and recovery efforts, working alongside state and local governments, as well as non-profit and private organizations.

FEMA can provide guidance and resources, but it typically encourages collaboration with civilian efforts rather than interference. If private organizations are operating within the law and are effective in their relief efforts, FEMA generally supports their work rather than intervening. However, there might be situations where coordination is necessary to ensure the safety and effectiveness of relief operations.

FEMA's legal role is defined by several statutes, primarily found in the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (Public Law 93-288). This act outlines FEMA's responsibilities during disasters and emergencies, including how it can assist state and local governments.

Other relevant statutes include:
Homeland Security Act of 2002 - This act established the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), under which FEMA operates, and outlines the agency's broader responsibilities related to disaster management and national security.
National Response Framework (NRF) and National Incident Management System (NIMS) - While not statutes, these frameworks provide guidance on how federal, state, and local agencies, including FEMA, should coordinate disaster response efforts.

Various federal regulations and policies that further delineate FEMA’s role, including the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), particularly Title 44, which covers emergency management and assistance

Reasons Not to Invade Venezuela

1. The country is only a minor contributor to America’s drug problem; the necessary violence of war cannot be Biblically justified to protect American citizens
2. Both rural and urban terrain would be a nightmare for modern warfare
3. Venezuela’s forces are built for decades-long guerrilla war, not conventional defense
4. Logistics would be slow, vulnerable, and expensive
5. The out-of-order oil fields are unwinnable battlefields: sinkholes of corruption, sabotage, and ecological collapse.
6. Occupation would lead to political and economic chaos, not stability
7. The loss of young American infantry could easily surpass that of Vietnam

Counting the Cost on Venezuela

An invasion of Venezuela would be quick to start but impossible to finish. The terrain, the logistics, and the complexity of the country’s politics make it a trap for any foreign army. And far from securing oil or influence, it would likely unleash environmental and humanitarian chaos that no one could control. Venezuela is a fragile state sitting on a volatile resource, not a battlefield the U.S. could ever truly win.

This is why political pollsters call Christians "The Stupid Demographic"

They don't unite truth with faith.

"Christians have been duped into being fearful, timid, and neurotic. We walk around as if we are the most ignorant of all people, unable to cope with basic social stigma, even though we’re the only ones who have the Truth, and the Lord Almighty has our backs against anything that would threaten us. Somehow, we can’t seem to bridge the gap between believing the miracles and promises we read in the Bible and applying it real life; thus making it an empty “religion” rather than an explosive, reality-shattering revelation about how everything truly works."
