Re: A candle in the dark?
...who knows how to make those things (bows and arrows, traps, fishing gear, even spears) we would need to use for hunting our food?
​
Come the collapse, just ask your friendly neighborhood archaeologist about these things. I'm sure he'll sell you some at a fair price!
​
And tools for making fire as well. (Those might be a little more expensive--what really good stuff do you have to trade?)

Religious belief does not constitute scientific evidence, nor does it convey scientific knowledge.

Re: A candle in the dark?
If the friendly neighborhood archaeologist could teach me how to make those items I would need, I would be his best friend.
If the friendly neighborhood archaeologist knew all of these things, and you did not, you would be his slave!

Knowledge is power!
