<< As it has been pointed out, if Bob happens to be the Lord Almighty, then you would say "That Honda is His car", but I happen to know that God rides a Ducati >>



I always thought He drives a Sovereign . . .











😀
 
DAMN THOSE CHRISTIANS

with their capatalizing of nonsensical words

/sarcasm


blame chrisitians for real problems please 🙂
 


<< Duh... because She wants to have Her pronouns capitalized 😉 >>


Duh... because It wants to have Its pronouns capitalized 😉
 
HE drives a Maxima.
They call it God's Chariot for a reason 😉

If it annoys you that much, then stop reading it...
 


<<

<< dont they put him and he capatilized because "him" and "he" is referring to god? (notice that i didnt capitalize anything 😛) >>



True, but I don't care if it's Bob's Honda or God's Honda, you still don't capitalize pronouns!

God doesn't own a honda.
 
I don't know about the Father and the Holy Ghost, but I bet I can guess what kind of car the Son of God would drive.

Chrystler. 😛

how bout you bitch about the most common vowel sound in the english language not even having a frickin' letter assigned to it?

hehe

<<

<< They think their god is better than everyone else's. >>

And Jews won't even type G*d...
>>


religious Jews do write "God", just not the explicit four letter Hebrew name for God.

Capitalizing pronouns when referring to God is proper English.
 
HOW ABOUT WHEN PEOPLE USE ALL CAPS?

oops, sorry guys. in the interest of adding ying to my yang, i've written this parargraph in all small. 🙂

It is really reaching and an act of extreme desperation to bring this subject up. This grammatical form existed long before any of us even knew anyone who lived when it started, so condemning them makes you a little upstart and supreme ankle biter! 🙂
