    JW's have a vocabulary and terminology of their own dont they? I have thought about putting togther an Apostaglossary to identify those particular sayings and their true meaning; i have included a few to start the ball rolling;

    'He doesnt have the right heart condition'

    Meaning: He's too intelligent to accept the teachings of the WTS.

    Love your family less than God

    Meaning: Shun any member of your family that doesnt agree with the WTS

    Can you think of any more...the more humourous the better.

    Kingdom advancement:

    running your ass off going door to door, meetings, and giving money to the WTS

    Keeping Proper Records:

    yes gossip about everything and write is down on paper to show the CO and PO & DO, falalalalalalalalalala AND all the sister elderettes.

    Support Preaching work:

    give money ,more money ,and more money. Oh shit don't be so cheap put a $1.00 in the contribution box

    Spent time with your family:

    give the kids 50.00 bucks and tell em to go to the movies or a rave and be home in time for the Sunday meeting,

    Buying out the opportune time:

    go to the mall and buy the latest style of clothes to show off at the memorial and your summer convention wardrobe..money is no object. Spend spend spend.

    Now with all these theocratic instructions, lets become more mature in the truth and set a good example for the world and obey the org. and kiss up to all those in places of responsability especially the 10 Little Indians in NY.

    Love
