Re:Capitalization
Just a thought for you from the viewpoint of a very fast reader. Capitalization makes it easier to spot the beginning of a sentence. Especially since computers today only give one character space after a period even when two are used.
Yes age also plays a part in not seeing the period as well.

Re: What is Futility?
Thank you Archer,
I try to avoid keyboard psychology since we have limited view of individuals, but the author of that thread has issues to deal with.
I've noticed that some who are still struggling with their spiritual walk/journey feel the need to be persecuted, whether real or imagined, depending on how they started their journey.
I think you gave the author what he needed and did so as kindly as possible I might add. Maybe at some point the light will go on and he will move through his struggles.
I feel that several participants tried to get the author back on track, to no avail. I also appreciate that the participants in that thread remained pretty civil considering the responses, which prevented the need for official admin interventions.
Thanks again for the kudos and kudos to those who tried.
