    Sorry, no one has told me yet what DUB stands for...I know it's a JW. What do the initials stand for?

    Greetings Sasha,

    It's a cute little nick-name they JW's have earned. Often called Jdubs

    1. give somebody or something nickname: to give a descriptive nickname to somebody or something

    It's simple: Jehovah's Witness --> (JW) Jay DoubleU --> Jay Doub --> Dub. And from this come other words like dubbiness, dubland, dubdom, dub hall etc sometimes there is a play on words eg dubland --> dumbland.

    The word dubious would certainly describe most of their bible interpretations, Sasha, as well as some of their practices.
