    Well I went to the meeting with my parents today and there was a talk about "Soundness of mind." So right now those three words are the words I dislike. Especially since they said that "worldly" people don't have "the truth" or "soundness of mind." UGGGGHHHH!!!!!! 3 more months!!!!!!!!

    I don't know if they still say it but 20 years ago they would say that,

    "the worst JW is still better than the best worldly person"
    What effing BS.

    I get a hateful feeling when I remember this little pearl of self-righteous BS because I believed it and unjustly looked down at my friends and relatives and couldn't have a proper friendship them.

    Sorry Flyinghighnow to hear of your experiences w/such unfeeling people. I can think of a lot of cruel words that were said to our family too.

    Anyways - did anyone else hear them use a non-English word "happifying"???? They always used BIG words that are seldom used so that we would use our dictionaries (?) Yeah right.

    Ok, I OWN the trump card in this thread...

    "On the basis of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, have you repented of your sins and dedicated yourself to Jehovah to do his will?"

    Followed by

    "Do you understand that your dedication and baptism identify you as one of Jehovah's Witnesses, in association with God's spirit-directed organization?"

    Beat that dubs

    "the slave"

    I really want to puke when I hear either of them.

    Hey, I know who the slaves are, and aint them.

    "meat", the hard to digest teachings you are supposed to understand and accept once you have become "grounded" in the "truth". After all, you aren't a baby anymore.
