Yes the murdering of the English language has always bugged me.
One elder referred to Alexander the great having his soldiers in a parallax, (optical term) he meant phalanx.
another referred the Peter outside warming himself by a brassiere (a bra) when he meant brazier.
when meetings had a break between talk and wt the elder said "we will now have a 5 minute intercourse"...not one sister moved!
These are a result of ill educated giving voice to their ill education. Project this level of ignorance accross the jw experience and it is no wonder there are some fairly horrid experiences reported here..
