  Common sense on Jockland's gender Bill

  by LoveUniHateExams in

  1. social
  2. current

  nicola sturgeon's daft plan to introduce a gender bill which allows anyone aged 16 and over to legally change gender without a doctor's diagnosis of gender dysphoria has rightly been stopped by pm rishi sunak.. under the rules of devolvement, the uk government can overrule holyrood if the pm so chooses.. lots of predictable howling form the scotch nuts, with ridiculous claims that rishi is trying to organise a fight with holyrood.

  of course, it's actually the other way round - the snp has been trying to pass this gender bill in order to drive a wedge between scotland and the rest of the uk.. sensibly, rishi has pulled rank on sturgeon and stopped her nonsense.. nicola sturgeon needs to know her place ....

  That excuse for a politician has indeed driven a coach and horses through our UK equality Act, but the problem has been compounded by the Scottish courts. Because gender takes priority over sex now in Scotland. If a woman in a rape crises center in Scotland wishes to be examined by a female nurse and so refuses a trans woman, she can be prosecuted for being prejudiced. 🤦🏻‍♀️

  Statistics prove that rates of violent offending for trans identified males remain the same as the general male population.

  There are now rapists in Scotland recorded as female and placed in women's prisons. With sex offenders claiming to be women after conviction, then changing back to male on release.

  Elizabeth Fry campaigned for single sex prisons 200 years ago, because prisons were mixed back then & women (& their children) were being assaulted. I cannot believe that we are regressing back to a time when the most vulnerable women in society are once again being put at risk.

  This is not about being 'not being kind', this is about safeguarding for women and children above all else

  JW Broadcasting - simply a platform for narcissists?

  one thing i notice from sitting through a number of broadcasts is just how much these guys love their titles.

  it's always brother such-and-such, member of the gb, helper to the teaching committee, etc.

  it's never simply brother such-and-such, a local elder with such-and-such congregation.. it seems to me the witnesses are pretty quick to pick up on catholics who call their priests father, which at the end of the day is in much the same vein simply a title.. i suspect these titles point to a huge amount of narcissism of the part of those who revel in such titles, certainly it doesn't seem to fall in line with christ's advocation that the greatest amongst you should be be the least.

  Both came to bethel before 1992, the last year of Friedrich Franz. they are overlappers.

  * Please file your brain away as 'not required' when reading the following:-

  Not necessarily. Being at Bethel doesn't indicate you are anointed.

  An over-lapper could be anywhere in the world if they were anointed before any of the pre-1914 anointed died (such as F. Franz in 1992).

  To be a young person claiming to be anointed in the late 80s or 90s you'd have been viewed with extreme suspicion. Certainly Ken Cook didn't claim to be anointed until the 2000's when he arrived back in Bethel. It's a career move. I'd lay money on the same being true of Flegel and Winder. They're almost certainly not of "this generation" via the over-lapping side hustle.

  N.B. As far as I understand it GB helpers don't have to be anointed, but they may be anointed. I.e. anyone can be a GB helper (any male that is).

  T5 Headlining : to be the main performer at an entertainment event ...Oh good Gravy.

  Good gravy indeed! I can't believe that man organises an open mic night in town, just so he can set himself up as the headliner🙄🤦🏻‍♀️I expect he'll claim it was down to popular demand .....

  TonusOH Seeing it all in one place helps to remind us just how much that man loves to hear himself talk sing!

  😜

  Lekker dag to you too Giggles...

  Toby5 😬Should I say what a dag means in English? It's a piece of sh*t covered wool off the rear end of a sheep😂

  TonusOH Next year's new member of the GB will be Zaphod Beeblebrox.

  😂😂🤣 Yup can they get more absurd?

  Do the GB literally whip out the roladex and flick through in a competition to see who can find either the daftest name or, failing that, the daftest bloke? (Lett?!)

  So, I think we probably have our first gb guys who are not part of “this generation”.

  FF Ghost No COOK is one of the new anointed. Not of "this generation". A board member was at Bethel when he became anointed and it was in the early 2000's (around 2007 I believe. Shortly after he arrived this time at Bethel...he was in the canteen at the time🤔😂)

  Breaking News from JW.org....

  "We are pleased to inform you that two additional brothers have been appointed to serve as members of the Governing Body of Jehovah’s Witnesses: Brothers Gage Fleegle and Jeffrey Winder. Both brothers are anointed Christians who have a long history of loyal service to Jehovah. Brother Fleegle began his full-time service in 1989 and Bethel service in 1991. Brother Fleegle has served as a helper to the Service Committee of the Governing Body. Brother Jeffrey Winder began his full-time service in 1986 and Bethel service in 1990. Brother Winder has served as a helper to the Personnel Committee of the Governing Body. We thank our heavenly Father, Jehovah, for raising up such faithful men to share in the work of the Governing Body. We pray that Jehovah will richly bless Brothers Fleegle and Winder and their wives!"

  Well darn I liked the ring of "Octopope"🤔☺️!! What about "Decadope"?? Any ideas my fellow apostates?

  Rhi-Rhi His playing isn't bad, especially if he hasn't practiced in a while. But his singing is off key.

  Yes, I was pleasantly surprised with his guitar. He's chosen the best key for his voice, the best style - sing-talking straight close into the mic in a whisper style. But still orf key😬
  

  LMsA He says "get inside our CAR"
  

  That's a 10-10 from me.....OVER...
