Apparently my post was unclear. The only person I meant to insult was
the poster to whom you had been replying, claiming that
"conservatives" both didn't worry about doomsday, and yet were
motivated by the prospect of it.

That made the post so weird that I couldn't answer it.

I have no issue with your statements that we need to avoid failing to
plan, and we need to expand to keep our options.
