Looks like this weekend will be snowy in Iowa

Quote

If shoveling wasn’t part of your New Years Day plans, it might be now. A significant winter storm looks to impact the state over the weekend and could dump more than six inches of snow in some areas. A Winter Storm Watch is in effect for the southern half of Iowa.

“We’ve been mentioning this for several days and now that the storm is closer, the specifics are becoming much clearer allowing for a more detailed forecast,” said First Alert Storm Team Meteorologist Jan Ryherd. “The bottom line is that snow will fall across the state this weekend with heavier amounts to the south. We’re very confident about that.”

As of the Thursday early evening forecast, Ryherd said that areas roughly along and south of Interstate 80 will see the heaviest amounts of snowfall with seven to ten inches of snow possible, with isolated heavier amounts possible. Areas between Highways 20 and 30 are looking at four to seven inches, with lighter amounts north of Highway 20.

So we appear to be in the 4 to 7 inch band.  Southern Iowa it looks like they'll get almost a foot.  Of course in reality we'll have anywhere from a trace to 99 inches of snow.  Right now it looks like we'll get hit on Saturday and it'll be clear out on Sunday.

      You are probably correct - as usual, it's about the money and the power. Jesus is a very distant third, if He is in the running at all.

      Nathan Pearl just took over the NGJ business ministries. His daughter Ashley is running the NGJ social media. NGJ is also republishing TTUAC, allegedly a new edition with some changes:

      Well now. Who is going to take one for the team and compare it to the original?

      Nose goes.

      Michael Pearl is the cult leader and he will feel the need to pontificate on some bizarre and arcane reasoning when the truth is likely much more logical: he wants to keep the money and the power and the esteem and allowing for occasional divorce makes all that possible. To stay true to the teaching would mean distancing from half of his kids and that would be cruel.

      We have looney relatives on both sides of the political spectrum but the place they overlap is a desire to buy raw milk and organic foods. 

       

      OMG this is so funny you guys mention the raw milk thing, because as a homeschooling fundie kid in the 90s there ended up being a black market/raw milk ring that operated through the local library (small town). We would collect giant jars of raw unpasteurized milk from the fridge there (deposited from a local farm). It was an open secret advertised by word of mouth in the fundie homeschool community. 

      I loved skimming off ladles filled with cream from the top and using it in the baking I did for the family. Looking back, I'm just glad none of us got seriously ill.  But since this was before the internet really took hold it shows how longstanding these beliefs really are.

      I think the fact that the bont kids post things all the time about their dad and not their mom perhaps reflects negatively on their relationship with their dad. They feel more secure with their mom and don’t have to post praising Instagram posts to get her love and attention. I see the posts about their dad as a way to get positive attention from him (and perhaps keep away negative attention). It’s like they are trying too hard for marlins approval 

      They have been raised to worship their father, not their mother. There is a disturbing picture where Marlin is sitting in the middle and all his kids and wife and around him, adoring him like an idol. At least, Duggars or Bates mothers had the spotlight, were the bee queens (not that I envy their position!), but Bontragers don't give wives that special treatment.

      Based on the quote posted by @TrueRebel1, I'm going to say her parents have changed their ideas on divorce FOR THEIR DAUGHTER already but of course won't preach it publicly. Michael Pearl is the cult leader and he will feel the need to pontificate on some bizarre and arcane reasoning when the truth is likely much more logical: he wants to keep the money and the power and the esteem and allowing for occasional divorce makes all that possible. To stay true to the teaching would mean distancing from half of his kids and that would be cruel.

      Well duh. All of it is cruel.

      WTF does the following even mean?

      She must be functionally illiterate. Even considering her (and her parents') belief in "rules for thee but not for me," does she even read what she writes? CTBHM was first published in 2004 -- the year she & James got married. IOW, the book was written in this century, the 21st century. 

       

      I'm laughing at your summary. Because yeah. Apparently 2004 was the time for marrying and 2023 the time for divorcing. Women saved their marriages and now women are saved by fleeing their marriages. All ordained by the unchanging Bible.

      Nothing to see here, people.
