That was my first thought, too.  Maybe we should help them out and post to some groups who might be interested in attending.

Jill has a video up on her Facebook.

She is an idiotic example of a warped brain.

I can’t, and wouldn’t anyway, post it. I’m sure it’s on her Instagram too.

I watched it.  She’s a nasty piece of work, that Jill.  She’s filled with hatred for the LGBTQ community.  She’s obsesses over it.

[iwantcookies]

“Man food” my mind went x rated all right. Definitely can be a gay porno.

 

Seriously what is man food ? Hot dogs or steak??? No pesky vegetables?

Fellowship with other man. Hmmm definitely a good pick up line lol.

So the Bontragers are advertising for the Man Camp and Young Women's Retreat. They will both be held in May and are enrichment opportunties. 

             Man Camp sounds like more of a joke than usual.

 "On May 13-16th Denver would love if you joined him and his amazing team of staff for a weekend in May in which you will be prepared for life, adversity and manhood. You will be stretched outside of  your comfort zone physically, mentally, and spiritually. You will discover what it means to truly be a mighty man of God in your discipline, character, passions, pursuits, and conversations. There will be convicting sessions, stretching activities, outstanding "man food" and fellowship with other men! Sign up soon and mightymencamp.org to receive the early bird discount!"  

     Both of these camps are fundie-networking events to meet other people with similar beliefs. The Bontragers may met have the Helferichs through these camps. Lauren Caldwell went to women's one once.

Sounds like a orgy to me 😉 I’m glad they’ve finally accepted gay people how lovely of them to be so open to hold them a sexy party.

I wouldn't be surprised if several of the "manly" attendees are gay. This is a perfect cover to enjoy themselves and pretend to be straight.

Did some gay person she accosted in a parking lot refuse to be saved and instead told her to fuck off? Because that I would pay to see.

Now that God has filled Nurie's womb, he's is back in Jill's corner after all the abuse and persecution she's suffered (in her mind, that is). Jill is emboldened, so her true, nasty self is on display. She's just getting started. 

[FizzyPuff]

I just thought I’d post this as it’s got a little clip at the beginning showing Jill & her husband announcing Nurthans pregnancy:

 

[BitterApple]

Nurie's hair looks so much thicker and healthier now that's she's getting sufficient nutrients. 

[Oldernowiser]

May I just say that the thumbs up sign is forever ruined for me and it looks particularly stupid in that Nurthan photo.

This made me laugh.  A church I used to attend had an annual men's fellowship barbeque.  The only rules:  No women and no vegetables.

I should add that this was not a Bible study or class in any way.  This was just a chance for the men to get together.  I'm sure the beer and wine flowed freely.  The women had their own thing once a year, too.

[Abmis]

I watched Jill's hateful video on Facebook.  I have to admit that I laughed at the way she emphasized even baby showers.  It's pretty obvious where her grifting little mind is at.  I wish some LGBTQ people would offer to host a baby and grandma shower for Nurthan's baby.  There is no way she'd turn that down no matter where it was coming from.

Am I crazy or have they (or some other group) used this exact description before? I feel like we were laughing over this last year at some point. 

[65mickey]

Stretching activities where you will be stretched outside of your comfort zone physically. This sounds like either kinky stuff or some form of torture, maybe both.

Oh yeah,esp. if it had all the glam gifts Jill wanted.They'd all be best friends!

Well, apparently JillyRod’s God was too busy making sure SpecialNurie’s womb was filled, because the law she was praying so hard for to fail passed. I am happy, because, equal rights and all... JillyRod will feel persecuted. Of course she will.

I don’t understand why some people thinking giving others equal rights will take away from their own rights. What rights would Jill lose if others gained them?

precious Jill can’t say boo if a trans person uses the women’s bathroom. It bothers Jill SEVERELY. 
 

Also that non hereto people can adopt kids. Just a guess. If she saw 2 dads with a baby she’d lose her s***.

I actually wouldn’t object to running into her self righteous holier than thou bitch self.   I kinda wish I lived closer as I could have a good ole time messing with her 😬  Alas, I live in the heathen land of CA

[GeeGolly]

The man camp discussion has me thinking of this toy one of my kids had. It was this weird red human shaped thing and you pulled on his arms and legs and stretched him out.

The Fundy mindset is so wrong. Being raised from birth thinking you're a superior being, just sets you up to be an asshole.

Whatever happened to, There but for the grace of God, there go I? Or does that thought evoke fear in them rather than empathy and understanding? No doubt, just like with the Duggars and Bates, one of the Rod kids is likely to be gay. Its almost too hard to think of an LGBT+ kid being raised in one of those households.

since her most recent posts were things that happened last week, give her time. She likes to pace the pics and fudge the timelines. There will be the flowers and cake. maybe even a family dinner at Golden Corral for the announcement to Jill.😂

Jill's entire set of offspring may have to ante up for individual bouquets and stuffed animals for her. She is their godly mama and now she's going to be the most important thing in the world -- a first-time godly grandma. So they all owe her, right?

Tim and the Etsy girls can fork over some of their extra cash so the little ones can all afford their teddy-bears-for-mama.

I think all these people are just terrified of anybody who seems even slightly different from them.

It does seem that humans, who are herd animals after all, do have some natural tendency to fear and shun outsiders and "different" people in favor of our own groups.

Clearly having some of that tendency is favorable in evolutionary terms, since it probably aids in the fight for resources and thus survival. If too many different people get accepted into our group and get access to our stuff, we fear there won't be enough resources for us, personally, and our genetic offspring. And that's what your own genes evolve to do above all -- protect their own ability to reproduce and survive the struggle for resources.

Possibly, just as with most or maybe all common traits, some people have this tendency to fear difference to a higher degree than average.

And then, since we're conscious beings with language, some of the super-fearful invent religions that include stories about how god or the gods actually order us to shun and hate these "different" people.

And once they've got those stories going, they can use people's also pretty natural fear of a god that will smite them down for disagreeing to win converts to their hate. That way they can easily spread the hate and the fear that underlies it and make themselves and others in their group believe that it's all righteous anger aimed at how immoral all the outsiders and "different" ones are instead. 

I think the whole business of the "manly" man camps are further evidence of how much their whole worldview arises from out-of-control fears that religion helps them turn into hatreds and angers and defensive fierceness. 

And since they live in bubbles and force their children to live in bubbles, they almost never encounter anything that could show them that their fears and hatreds fall way outside the range of useful and understandable caution. That's why homeschooling as it's mainly practiced in America is the devil, I think. 

The people who are attracted to these religions and cults on their own are all control freaks, I believe....because I'm pretty sure control freaks are mainly just these people who are especially fearful -- of difference, change, and so on. .....

And that's also why, if their access to information and other people isn't strictly controlled, so many second- and third-generation people leave or at least drift slowly away from cults and religions like this.

If you're born into the thing, but you're not a naturally highly fearful person like your parents who converted on purpose, then you may experience and learn things that show you, with your less naturally fearful nature, that all the controls and defensiveness of the cult or religion just aren't necessary and may even be harmful.

But of course the parents -- and, crucially, also the owners and operators of the religion, who take advantage of the whole situation to get money and the joy and perks of power -- busily put tons of protective mechanisms in the way to keep the children from learning anything that might open their minds to the possibility of leaving. (The parents fear for their children, too, just as they fear for themselves (that's biologically wired, too), while the religious leaders want the bucks and the obeisance!) That's the whole purpose for all their childrearing and educational practices.

Jill tossed in a hate the sin, love the sinner. Isn’t she special.

 

She posted early this morning about singing at a church in Florida. On February 18th there was a post stating the same, written by a woman who was part of a duo at the same appearance. So her timing is a bit off.

From Jill’s post:
