    In honor of Steven Colbert's new word becoming Word of the Year at Miriam and Webster, I have decided it needed to be used here in reference to the WTS.

    What is truthiness you ask? Well, if you do have to ask you are obviously lacking truthiness to begin with. According to Seven Colbert, truthiness is a devotion to information that he wishes were true even if it's not. "I'm not a fan of facts," he intoned. "You see, facts can change, but my opinion will never change, no matter what the facts are.". Also, the quality by which a person claims to know something intuitively, instinctively, or "from the gut" without regard to evidence, logic, intellectual examination, or actual facts.

    So, once again, I ask: Are you in the Truthiness? JWs certainly are!

    Now that's true blue JWthink right there. The only time they'll change an opinion is when the WTS tells em to.

    I beat you to it.

    Yea, but will that fact change his opinion about how important his thread is?

    Probably not, but it does reinforce how important my thread is.

    It's definately a good word to use when describing JW's!!!!! They've had a "gut" feeling that the end was near for over a 100 years...in other words, TRUTHINESS!
