Just heard through the grapevine in my area that several JW's have recently come down with the latest variant. More transmissible, less dangerous. But the word is that everyone must now submit to all the GB mandated "guidelines" again, yet in all their fear of the virus they are still going ahead with in person meetings. SMDH

JWs still paranoid about covid
by neat blue dog inin the newest governing body update loesche recounts the experience of a jw who was pleased with the results of resuming in-person ministry.
he said, 'i thought people would be scared of the virus, but they were welcoming!
' - 🤣 um maybe he doesn't get out much because kingdom halls are one of the few places left except hospitals that require masks.

And they will still beat the flock with the "show your appreciation by giving us $$$$" bull---t! Never mind that any who are foolish enough to pay for gas, food, or lodging will have little left to give.

Roe vs Wade Overturned by US Supreme Court!
by Simon ini know there was a leak a few weeks back, but this really does seem to have come out of the blue.. the anomaly was the original decision.
it clearly had no basis in law or the constitution, and was a flimsy, ridiculous ruling.
plus the whole thing was based on a fraudulent case in the first place.. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-61928898.

I mean, let's be real here, a 1 or 2 year old has no viability if the mother didn't care for it, feed and clothe it, or nurture it.
Let's take the next step on this road. A person is paralyzed from the neck down in an accident and can no longer survive completely on their own without a caregiver to feed them, change their diaper, a machine to breathe for them and so on, or an elderly person suffering from advanced dementia who needless round the clock care to live? How about we just use them for "target practice", after all they are an inconvenience to the young and healthy aren't they?
BTW...Simon, can you add a sarcasm font?
I second that.

Rosemont Cemetery II
by RolRod inokay, so here's a follow-up to my post a while back regarding the society tearing down the pyramid monument.
they cleared the area and this is what they did.
notice ... nothing about the watchtower connected to it, just slabs of cheap concrete..

I must say I am truly impressed by how well maintained WT has it around the concrete. No weeds, nice grass right to the edge, no litter. Oh wait. . .

But if you do get drunk, get a designated driver, or take an uber/ taxi, then that's a workable solution too. Likewise, if you insist on fucking around, get birth control or the morning after pill (also a workable solution).
I agree 100%. However both those choices would require a person to exercise a fair amount of intelligent, self-responsibility, something that those who drink and drive without regard for possible consequences and those who f--k around like animals with no regard for consequences are woefully lacking.

The president always gets credit or blame for what happens during his watch.
Unless of course your name is Øbammy. He continually blamed his predecessor for his f--- ups, and tried to take credit for the good that happened under his successor. Sorry S.O.B. that he is.

Since urban areas with large populations tend to be more politically liberal than areas with much smaller populations (such as rural areas), political conservatives get more representation in the US Senate than would otherwise be the case.
Really? So I was taught the wrong thing in school civics and government classes? Here all along I thought I was taught correctly that the REPRESENTATIVES from the states being proportioned to population, and the SENATORS being equal from every state was intended to give EQUAL voice to the less populated states. Otherwise Californicate and Nyark would control the entire country. Of course that is exactly what the anti-American left's agenda is!
clearly something, or someone other than the mother and her uterus, can feed the baby.
So by your own words that baby is incapable of independent life. Your "mother and her uterus" argument falls as flat as a welfare persons old car tire!

Different interpretations then on if it is murder or not.
So enlighten us as to when an abortion suddenly becomes murder? Is it a three months in the womb, six months, or is it as some pro-abortion activists claim at the point of viability? If it is viability then exactly how viable? The dictionary defines viable as, "capable of existence and development as an independent unit." So by definition the life of a baby at six or seven months post-birth should be able to be legally terminated as they are not yet 100% viable. Or what about someone like Beijing-joe the alleged president of the U.S.? He is definitely not viable in his dementia addled state!

Experiences with kiss up kick down Jehovahs witnesses
by hoser inhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/kiss_up_kick_down.
i’ll go first.. in a previous congregation we had a pioneer couple that have since gone on to be gilead graduates and are now either in circuit work or translation.
they checked all the boxes off the societies list so they were exemplary.

A JW cannot be excommunicated for the sole act of taking another believer to court.
Well maybe not using that exact worded reason, however any JW can be DF'd for ANY reason that three illiterate window washers in the back room can agree upon.
