Besides, all the quotes from the people I quote come up as errors, and I don't feel like correcting everyone.
​
Does anyone else correct misspellings in EvC quotes they put up? Could this "wanting the best for another person" be called Applied Christianity
​
Does anyone else suffer from this problem? All of a sudden like, you start hitting the oh so familiar keys in a way that makes you type letter combinations in the rwong way. Like no matter how slow you go to try to rwite the a word, you'll keep on rwiting it the rwong way.
​
And then it disappears...noly to be replaced by some other letter sequence that wno't work.
​
If so don't wrory...it passes after a time

Re: WAnting the best
But when people try to associate your spelling ability with the validity of your message, then it is not wanting the best, but outright invalid criticism. I stand by my OP.
​
People don't do that here surely!

Re: Wanting the best
The Bible however, its intended audience being common people, demonstrably falls short, by your own admission.
​
This it does but the Bible also tells us that even though it is meant for all, not all will pick it up. And that the choice to do so (or not) is theirs. Incidently, "falling short" IIRC is the translation of the original word which we now refer to as 'sin'. It derives from an old archery expression "fall short of the (Gods) target"
​
If so, the Bible cannot fall short - a book cannot sin. Only man can do that.
