Religious writers and audiences

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

I didn't use any terms, you did. So I don't understand what is insane about my usage of terms that I didn't use in the first place. I just asked a straight question that you answered with another question in true "master to apprentice" fashion. Your friends must be proud.

 

As I said before this discussion for me ends here. We can just save ourselves (and others in this list) from more wasted time.
