The possibilities are nearly endless. Copies of the CES Letter replacing all hymnals. Frozen fish in all the vents, small bowls of condoms in colorful wrappers in all the entry halls. A Chromecast receiver plugged into the back of one of the big screen TVs so that I could download porn onto my phone and send it directly to the big screen. If Kids are present, It could be South Park's Mormon episode.

In other words, they are non-committal words that can go both ways. They can imply something very specific without having to take ownership (or to use the Church's words - be accountable. As a side note, the Church is very unaccountable for all of the accountability that it teaches) for those things. <br /><br />Some examples:<br /><br />"Not everything on the internet can be trusted"<br />This is a true statement that assumes we are all idiots. It infers that the internet somehow produces its own information and that people who read stuff there simply approach internet research as a matter of faith. Most people know how to check sources, and while not everything on the internet is true, validating sources is easier to do on the internet than it has ever been in the past. This is a weasel word argument because it is intended to suggest to people that most arguments against the Church on the internet are poorly sourced assertions that are not historically validated. It's a mischaracterization of fact, without having to state it. It's true that there are small instances where this is true, so the generalization is safe, yet it ignores that there is wealth of sourced information that is easily accessible...and which constitutes the basis of the most common criticisms against the Church.<br /><br />Jeffrey R. Holland regarding the Book of Mormon - "Teeming with Semitic complexity"<br />This was boldfaced weaselness because it was an aggressively stated non-statement. In other words, it doesn't mean anything at all. Anybody can claim that something has Semitic corollary's, but it is quite another thing altogether to claim those corollary's as a basis for justifying that The Book of Mormon has ancient Semitic origins. It also begs the question of what Semitic "complexities" that Holland finds so compelling. Instead, he gave a sermon where he can simply insist that the book is loaded with "stuff", and then never have to actually say what the stuff is. There is nothing that can be refuted so, Holland can imply something without having to state it and risk being embarrassed publicly. <br /><br />"I know the Church is true"<br />This is the most entrenched weasel rhetoric we use. It is another nothing-statement. It's simply an assertion that implies a deeply significant spiritual experience, without being responsible to explain that experience in any meaningful way. "I took Moroni's challenge, and God through his Holy Ghost, confirmed to my spirit, that the Book of Mormon is a true book". These kinds of statements are loaded with implication that begs for detail but is completely absent of any meaningful content whatsoever. This provides nobody with any kind of workable information that can lead to process execution or useful decision making. I have no way of proving that God's Holy Ghost did or did -not "speak comfort to their soul", but that's only because that kind of a statement doesn't offer any kind of an explanation how that sort of communication is supposed to work. Its a emotive hyperbolic assertion that is already in a full sprint opposite the direction of accountability.
