    I remembered my favorite:

    ?Bas associations spoil useful habits.?

  • shamus
    shamus

    Favorite Phrase, "Spiritually Weak", and all bullshit words that go in front of and behind said phrase. "Brother Shamus is spiritually weak, because he has not gone to enough meetings.". "By not going to meetings, you are showing that you are spritualy weak".

    A close second, "Worldly". I mean, PALEASE! This isn't a cult, is it?

    How about "We must have the faith that the bible does provide". Too bad the WTBTS uses other publications to select certain scriptures and mis-interpret them.
