This, definitely.
Know how I know?
'Cause I did it.
Every belief a JW holds to be true is a lie.
These lies are not called truth. These lies are called THE TRUTH.
All the information a JW accepts into their hearts and minds is not called knowledge. It is called ACCURATE knowledge.
When a JW exhales, the carbon dioxide is laden with lies.
When a JW perspires, the sweat is liquid lies.
Every neuron in their brain fires lying impulses.
The JW's heart beat lying beats.
And why?
They are swimming in a sea of bullshit.
An ordinary life is repugnant to the person who holds eternity in their hand.
"The Truth" is worse than Crack.
But, it is just as brutal to the addicts who crave it.
(I never was a JW).
This is not to diminish WT lies, rather to show that they're not alone.
William Lane Craig is a famous evangelical apologist/snake oil salesman. I came across this clip today - it's worth watching:

"How do these pants look, dear? Do they make me look fat?"
"Only when they're tight."
