This doesn't forward your cause or complicate mine in the least. You're just looking for something to post and know you can't possibly address my concerns.

Mittens, what exactly are "etching ears"?

And how exactly does one go about making up "there mind"?

They are the ears you find on "E-tching Apologists."

This sentence is a syntactical train wreck.

How about this: Mormons run theolgoically a muck and can't seem to understand who their "god" is or who Jesus is! Not surprising since Mormon doctrine today does not follow the Book of Mormon........it is based on the warped teachings of Joey Smith! Speaking of train wrecks, how can you not apply that work to Smith's teachings?

The word malapropism comes ultimately from the French mal à propos meaning "inappropriate" via "Mrs. Malaprop", a character in the Richard Brinsley Sheridan comedy The Rivals (1775) who habitually misused her words. Dogberryism comes from "Officer Dogberry", the name of a character in the William Shakespeare play Much Ado About Nothing. These are the two best-known fictional characters who made this kind of error—there are many other examples. Malapropisms also occur as errors in natural speech. Malapropisms are often the subject of media attention, especially when made by politicians or other prominent individuals.(Wikipedia)
Surprise, surprise, there is no divine mandate for the Church to discuss and portray its history accurately.

Ellipses are written like this: . . . Three dots, separated by a space from each other and from the words preceding and following them.

More of a spelling train wreck here, but equally unthinking.

You are right, "amuck." Gosh, I must have lost my salvation!

Another fine example of what we in the trade call a malapropism.

Well, with Anglicans spelling counts!

What trade are you in - "malapropism?" Lots of interest in that subject?

It's all man-made belief. All religion. Spelling is man-made, too.
