In some cities including Boston itself, it’s not the Fd that resets it but the fire alarm company of record(I work for one) who also gets a call. The possible issue is if another alarm comes in before the tech arrives it will not report to the FD again.

I understand your POV and where it comes from but not all Christian’s believe in a theocracy or that those things you mentioned are even bad necessarily. Your lumping a lot of people in one group.
