  Nurses are unwilling to take the COVID-19 Vaccine

  by adjusted knowledge in

  2. friends

  i work at two separate hospitals and most of the rns i work with have stated they won't take the vaccine.

  i've read a report that 1/3 of rns will refuse the vaccine.

  for those in other countries do you see this being an issue or is it more an american phenomenon?.

  I can see why there are some concerns. Especially about the Pfizer vaccine which is an RNA vaccine. RNA vaccines are a new thing. It's my understanding that none of our previous vaccines are RNA vaccines.In the USA these multi-billion dollar Big Pharma businesses have been granted immunity from lawsuits for injury resulting from the vaccines. If they are so f***ing safe and tested, then why the provision of immunity granted from Government?
  

  Read up about them people before you make such blanket decisions.

  Do we force people to take a flu jab?

  Heathcare workers here are required to take the "flu shot".

  I bet Hillary would have loved to make Bill wear a ball gag, lol.

  And Monica too! That might have saved an embarrassing impeachment investigation.

  the breaking news in canada today is the rollout of the pfizer/biontech vaccines.

  perhaps we can put this pandemic nightmare to bed soon.. i hate to rain on the parade, but we yet are not clear of any allergic reactions, side effects there might be as they roll out.

  but, just have to wait and see...to state the obvious.

  and you know God hates drug fueled orgies

  Then I suspect that would be one area in which we would differ.

  Predictions of The Org in one year.

  by Overrated in

  2. friends

  i predict that in a year kingdumb halls will be replaced by zoom.

  they will still have assembly halls but will charge a heavy entry fee.

  baptisms will continue to be so low that would not be worth counting.

  The years fly by a lot faster than they used to do so. But then, that's probably because I'm a lot older.

  Point is, a year isn't much time. I don't think changes of any consequence will take place within the next 12 months.

  shocking that almost 3000 people lost their lives in one day in the US because of making masks political.

  IMO more people are complying with the mask mandates than ever before. So WHY are the numbers rising so dramatically? Why are the more radical States having higher numbers? Why are Democrat celebration parties exempt?

  European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) dismissed numerous JW tax cases against Armenia

  by Corney in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  by three decisions handed down over the last year, the strasbourg court has declared 12 complaints, all named "christian religious organization of jehovah's witnesses against armenia", inadmissible.

  the cases concerned imposition of value-added tax (vat) on imported literature - on 67 shipments received between 2007 and 2015, to be exact.

  in short, the organization claimed that, first, the shipments should be tax-free pursuant to article 12 of the freedom of conscience act ("monetary and other gifts received by religious organisations, as well as income received from citizens shall not be subject to taxation"); secondly, the customs authorities arbitrarily determined the customs value of the imports based on, for example, the prices the bible society of armenia (affiliated with the dominant armenian apostolic church) sold imported religious literature.. up until march 2007, there were constant problems receiving regular shipments of religious literature, which should be tax-free but which customs arbitrarily reassessed at unpredictable higher values and then imposed a value-added tax of 20 percent.

  Regardless of ones opinion of JWs, this is an example of Government oppressing religious freedom.

  Friend Is Worried About My “Mental Health”...lol

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  one of my tennis friends who happens also to be a nurse, told me today that he is concerned about my mental health because i support donald trump.

  i believe he got shafted but i also recognize that very little will probably change regarding his being re-elected.

  this man voted for the “green” candidate and said he personally agrees with most of trump’s views but he thinks he’s morally corrupt.

  Still hoping (quietly) for a "December Surprise".

  Not really expecting it at this point. But hoping.

  Kinda like I hope I win the $300 million Power Ball.
