The same could be said about a few of the Keller’s children. What does Jill think about them?

Well, Rebekah may wear jeans, but she's RICH. She has a vacation home that she allowed Jill to stay in. So she's cool 

Just another example of Jill's hypocrisy.

Liberty University is both non-profit and accredited, even though its beliefs and policies are steeped in fundie-ism. GCU is a little harder. It’s regionally accredited, and students are eligible for financial aid, so I can’t figure it out completely. My niece is a student there, and my brother’s pretty sharp, so I can’t imagine him letting her go to a wacky diploma mill. 

Liberty University is accredited. The Dean of my division has a doctorate from there and my last boss got her doctorate of social work from there. Both were accepted by my liberal state college. Although, I am in Idaho so liberal is relative.

I had a lol at "liberal is relative." Liberty may be accredited, but whether the non-fundie world takes it seriously is a different story. I don't know anybody who thinks Liberty is on par with a regular university. 

Topic: Sarah Maxwell does look great in her new life. I wish her the best. She deserves it after living her entire life under Steve's thumb. I do wonder what brought about the changes. 

[irisheyes]

I mean, I would strongly discourage my kid from going to LU, but graduates do have a degree that will be accepted by a state’s licensing board if they were a nurse or teacher. 

Topic?  Has JillR posted anything dumb today?

Same crap different day…

Free bday for Sadie. You know Jill contributed $0 towards that party.

[emmawoodhouse]

There were some pics in Jill's Thanksgiving dump of Sadie wandering around with a small cake that had an 8 candle.

He looks like a living acorn in that outfit. I want for this little guy to have a wonderful childhood, but my gut tells me that his will be the usual too-many-kids fundy crap shoot.

[CalicoKitty]

At least she got his last name correct.  

[StaceyNotStacie]

She’s a little behind on her seasons. Shouldn’t he have reindeer ears or a Santa hat by now?

[emmawoodhouse]

Jill's latest post is a doozy. Boys with guns she says are being "men, not sissies." 

Fuck you Jill.

Oh brother...

[tabloidlover]

Jill is showing her ignorance yet again.  Screenshot of birthday cakes below.  Background voice asking for the cake with the 13 on it to be turned around for correct video shot and Jill turns Sophia’s 8 around as well.  Whadda ya know?  The 8 looks the same backwards AND forwards!!  🙄🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️

[SJC]

Since Jill thinks that men wearing camo & firing guns is oh so manly would she approve of the Rod boys joining the military ?

Nah...of course not. In the military they'd be exposed to wicked heathens. And...and they might have females giving them orders !!!!!! *gasp*

[crazy8s]

jilly also believes teenagers and school shootings are caused by evil video games and not guns.

from the rod blog

"I cannot help but ask myself why this influx of shootings has lately taken place.  It is then that I am reminded of the many times I walk through various stores and see the evil all over the shelves.  The market for video games has sky-rocketed and so much of it is just plain…………well, for lack of better words – TRASH!!  It fills our youngsters minds and hearts with a thirst and hunger for killing and evil.  Yet, the Bible tells to fill our minds with the very opposite." (2/13/16) 

Sadly a boy, that is "not a sissy" and had access to a gun, killed 4 students and injured many others in a school shooting in my area yesterday

They also would never join because they would actually face danger instead of playing GI Joe. 

[SJC]

True !

[BigBingerBro]

Jesus, I wish I could force Jill to spend some sissy time with me.  B*tch needs to be slapped.

[iwantcookies]

If David liked video games there would be tons of them in the house 🙄

[charmed1]

If you zoom in on the photo of the birthday child, you can see Phillip standing behind her. He looks so gaunt it seems he could fall over at any minute.

[iwantcookies]

I thought it said gay cousins at first. Jill would not approve.

[MargeGunderson]

For a few seconds, I thought perhaps Jill was being tone-deaf to post about guns in the wake of yet another school shooting. Then I remember that this is Jill, and bitch knew exactly what she was saying. She can fuck right off.

This cannot be said enough. FUCK OFF, JILL, YOU SELF-RIGHTEOUS BITCH. Children are being murdered because of manly teenagers with guns.

[beckie]

Ok. I feel dumb. I know BME stands for Best Mama Ever and that GWE is for David, but for the life of me, I can't figure out what GWE stands for. And everything I manage to come up with, fits HER rather than HIM.

GWE = Gut With Ears.  When Jill was gushing over the 7 foot tree ($$$) and saying they decided on it, GWE was quick to ask "Do Nathan and Nurie know where we are?"  So Nathan can pay for it?

 

[iwantcookies]

You know Nathan pays for everything. He should tell his in laws to F off! 
 

Xmas is coming and guess who will be buying presents for everyone? Nathan. 
 

The Rod parents are lazyyyy grifters with no shame.

I'd feel sorry for him, but he's a grown man with a wife and child. He already has what he wanted most from the Rod family and Nurie is never going to divorce him no matter what he does, so he's free to stop the grift if it really bothers him.

[MargeGunderson]

It would really behoove Nathan to establish some boundaries with his in-laws now, because it will only get worse if he doesn’t.

Does Nurie have extensions? Her hair looks pretty and very healthy in those pics.

It looks thicker, too.  My bet is on extensions.  Mama Jill has them, I am sure she has trained Nurie to follow her example in all things.

How frickin' many churches that espouse their beliefs are there?  How can Nathan, who has never even been a clergy person graduate from some sort of program and immediately be a pastor?  I'm just a heathen Catholic, but our priests all have at least a Master's before they get sent to a parish to work as a parochial vicar under a pastor who has been doing parish work at least a decade or so before he gets to be in charge.  Nathan isn't even old enough to be a priest let alone be a parochial vicar if he were Catholic.  Which must be why Catholicism is so corrupt, I guess.  We need to put more young guys with no training or experience in charge of stuff.

It seems like all the men in their circle are 'pastors' and virtually none of them are just members of the congregations.  Too many chiefs and not enough indians as my mother used to say.

Her hair does look amazing. Whatever she did (new style or extensions), I’m glad she took time to do something for herself as a new mom. That’s hard under the best of circumstances. 

[CouchTater]

I really wish I could be a fly on the wall of a Keller family gathering (that doesn't include Nurie).  How do they feel about JRod and the broadcasting of Nathan's new life with impunity? I know it's also her daughter's life, but this latest announcement about  his new profession is not hers to make.  At all.  Ma and Pa Keller may not have SM, but others in the family do.  I don't follow any of these folks, so maybe other Kellers are posting about Nurthan and I just don't know about it.

Has JRod been anointed as their official SM spokesperson or what?

[madpsych78]

Nathan probably went this path in response to his brother David getting married. He no longer has someone to run the lawn mowing business with, especially since David is in Arkansas.

[GeeGolly]

Timmy should really have bought the boys' lawn business. The Kellers have plenty of land for his little camper. But somehow I don't see Tim as a hard worker.

[CouchTater]

I fear Timcel would be lost without his mother's heavy hand nearby.

But, is he going to be able to support himself and Nurie and the baby on his pastor's salary?  It seems like most of the pastors in their faith have full time work in addition to pastoral work because their congregations are small and cannot support them.

Nathan has to have some sort of side hustle in addition to being pastor, it seems likely that he is still doing lawn care.
