OK, Alpaca, you asked for it!
*ahem, ahem, cough, cough*
"Even though mendacious men the truth deny,
We know it's impossible for God to lie.
Therefore let us preach the word with dil - i - gence,
For in it we have the utmost con - fi - dence."
How creepy is that? It's like images of a bad car wreck that will never go away.
Will I ever forget Kingdumb melody lyrics?

OpenMind,
Quick, get into therapy as soon as you can. OMG, you have to get that shit out of your head....NOW!!!!!!
Cheers,
Alex
FYI, even the boys in Brooklyn realized "mendacious" was ready for the dust bin and replaced it with "deceitful" in our lovely brown song book.

Man I'm such a bad worldling... Can't get rid of all this JWness...
How about 'faithful'. Their meaning seems to equate to 'gullible'.
That reminds me... what about "slave"... as in
"We all need to be "slaves" for Jehovah or for Christ'
Translation: Be a mindless Watchtower drone
How about all that BS when they talked about the "type" and the "antitype" and the "antitypical."
Shit, I used to spend a lot of time studying and never did get my head around all of that mumbo jumbo.
well, this has certainly been edifying, even happifying! They have a whole little dictionary of JWisms - stuff that means entirely different things to the rest of the world. Type and antitype and typify - and a whole host of Victorianisms that they still use are all pretty stupid. But apparently since I've been out (sounds like prison, doesn't it?), there is a new song with something about molested bees. That ought to win the prize for stupid.
