    Is it me or do some of you get the "willies" when you hear the term "Governing Body" and it is not attributed to the Watchtower Society. I hear and read that term all the time, in regards to businesses.

    that and society, convention, witness, and a few other words I can't think of right now and when someone other than a jw says jehovah (one of my pastors said it at church and made my skin crawl)

    I freaked out a little internally when I went to church and they sang a song called 'Days of Elijah' a snippet from the song follows:

    Behold He comes! Riding on the clouds! Shining like the sun, at the trumpets call!

    Lift your voice! It's the year of jubilee! And out of Zion's hill salvation comes!

    There's no God like Jehovah! There's no God like Jehovah! There's no God like Jehovah! There's no God like Jehovah!

    (repeat x3)

    It's a catchy little tune (it caught in my throat)

    Ah, those little JW phrases, reminds me of the old Abbot and Costello episode, when Costello says "nantucket!" and the guy turns around, "slowy I turn, step by step ...." and starts beating up on Costello ... I must be aging myself here!

    Anything related to this or any other religion gives me the creeps lately.
