  as a non vaccinated person you represent a health risk to your fellow workers

  Still waiting for someone to logically and intelligently explain exactly how that works.

  FUJ: There is a big difference from the virus being carried into a fertile facility, like a meat plant, on skin that has not be scrubbed, and/or

  exhaled into the air by a person that is infected and carries the replicating virus.

  vaccination limits the development into that virulent stage, where it damages you and those that you potentially share the virus with via ventilation or the lack of it.

  I do not judge anti vaxxers, but stay home, in isolation and create and enjoy your safe cocoon.

  go read about thalidomide.

  f: remember it well, people still working with no arms. yes, medical treatments can turn out to be hazardous, think of the billions paid out in the tainted blood scandal. but in the long run, vaccinations have been a boon to all of us. yes,

  Thalidomide came from the same country as the novel vaccine, yet it was only a 'feel better' pill, not a live saving preventative.

  as a non vaccinated person you represent a health risk to your fellow workers. your employer may be sued for letting you loose among the herd.

  A couple of large businesses where I live are mandating the vaccine ("take the jab or lose your job")

  f: Businesses have the right to expect a certain standard from their employees.

  A basic one is to behave in the safest manner possible. It is a safer world now, since we have vaccines. fellow employees too have the right to work in a virus free surroundings, virus carrier free that is.

  it could be that the virus has new mutation, against which the original vaccines the are only marginally effective, so the next round of [anti]vaccines is needed for protection.

  “Well at least he doesn’t make mean tweets”

  i asked a tennis friend this morning what he thought about what’s going on in afghanistan and he said it was terrible.

  he was a military man and identifies as a middle of the road republican.

  he supported most of trump’s policies but voted for biden because he couldn’t take trump’s mean tweets.

  the real tragedy is the girls, woman caught in a military conquest again.

  we need the angel that dealt with all the firstborn at passover night in Egipt to be on standby and alert.

  sorry to mix irony with a very serious looming situation.

  ....and still no big 'a'.

  armageddon.. it was 15 years ago dubland was in lala dream-like almost trance-like state hanging on the notion the big 'a' was imminent.. it was ironic.

  ironic at that time was when.... i was starting my long waking-up process.

  you forgot the spurs on the riding boots.

  spurs: sure punishment under religious systems. or better:

  s for supposed punishment

  A conversation that could have occurred between Jesus and a crowd he taught

  by BourneIdentity in

  2. humour

  jesus: "so that is why you all get sick and die, because adam and eve grabbed an apple from the tree that god told them not to.".

  a man from the crowd: "but why are we punished for something we didn't do, we don't even know that man and woman, that was thousands of years ago!".

  jesus: "my father exercises perfect justice, believe me when i tell you when i say you got what was coming to you.

  These days wt inc is supposed to have taking on the role of teaching the great[er] crowd.

  When Nasa was building the space center on merritt island FL,they were boasting they will go to the moon, and there I thought, still giving wt chance after chance,: " no you will not , Your god is confined to the earth as per wt illustrations, and his subjects carrying their flags, idols will be too.

  well, the voyageurs are now past the heliopause, and flags are planted on the Moon, Mars, Venus.

  humour: can you picture Bezos, Musk, Branson with hoofs and tails? reaching for the heavens?

  the remains of what may be one of the largest pterosaur's yet found have been discovered in outback queensland.

  the palaeontologists that have been examining the discovery describe it as having been a fearsome beast, with a spear -like mouth and a 7 metre wingspan.. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-08-10/dragon-like-pterosaur-outback-queensland-identified-named/100361038.

  the naive wt reply was that it all happened because of creatures rebelling in Eden ~ 6000 years ago, well, it looks like the creation of mischief by demons, or punishment by the deity, (take your pick), reaches 100 000 times longer into the past.

  re: 7 meter flapping wing creatures taking of by jumping

  1) only the young flew ( see sci forum) or

  2) they were water creatures, manta rays of sort.

  Did You Think The Majority of Elders Were “Qualified “?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in my opinion, in a body of elders let’s say with 7 elders , 2 or 3 were pretty much on the ball.

  they were reasonable, intelligent and moderate.

  the others were either extremely extreme about everything or very liberal.. did you have qualified older men or were they all lousy to you?

  Qualified ? I am not really sure what that means.

  MW do not forget that the 'get to the top game' in wt land is a free for all, a no holds barred sport. from the first appointment meeting in ~1973 on. (a nice diversion from the impending 1975 disaster btw)

  In the end the same characters would prevail as under Hitler and Stalin. and dont underestimate the undercurrent of the ladies in this.

  elders = leaders.-- only one letter more, that Jesus forbade.
