    I hear it all the time: When you point out how the Governing Body made a big mistake of any kind.

    "They are not perfect" .......But, but fellow JWs have been D'F for less I say!

    You're forgetting "food at the proper time" as in "the faithful and discrete slave, who are serving spirtitual food at the proper time." Also I hate it when they refer to the "annointed" as "spirtitaul brothers of Christ." What a bunch of masterbatory crap!

    Has "New Light" been mentioned? If it did, then I think it should be once more.

    Oh yeah, I also hate it when they say "do not lean upon your own understanding." I guess I have to lean upon the understanding of a few old men from Brooklyn. If you do lean upon your own understanding, you end up striving after "higher education" (of course, this word is always used in the pejorative sense) and you become so "haughty and proud" since you've learned what real scholarship looks like.

    I could go on, but I hate all of those buzzwords. Talk like a real person, damnit!
