Listen, you're my brother, but your comma usage is all over the shop...

There are a lot of reasons why these things occur. Try to think about the age and the national origin of the people who may be posting here. If you truly can't understand it, leave it alone, I figure. If it's just a bit scrambled, try to figure out what they mean.

One person recently asked, 'Do you love to dead?' I thought of three things that the asker might have meant and answered all three.

Last but not least, if anybody is 'speaking in tongues', where else but Religion and Spirituality would you expect them to post? :)

Peace.

Oh I agree.
But the last time I checked, "that writing a coherent sentence" is not a restrictive clause in that sentence. (meaning it should not be set off by commas.) In essence, what you are saying is, "Can we all agree and a little punctuation would not go astray." And, how could punctuation and writing a coherent sentence go astray, exactly?
I guess if you really thought about it, this sentence makes no actual sense, as written.

Sadly, I had to read your sentence a couple of times until I was sure I understood what you meant. There are many questions like this on Yahoo! Answers, and it seems so ironic that many of the people that criticize others' grammar, spelling and writing style are not perfect at these themselves. I hope this doesn't offend you, but I don't believe that only people who "know the rules" have communication in their back pocket. In other words, I believe that communication belongs to everyone, not just those who say that their form of communication is the best.

Can we also agree that more than 70% of this world have another native language, and they speak English only as their second or even third language?

Can we also agree to give them a little credit for trying?

It would be a huge improvement overall. But youth in general don't see the reason to put forth the effort. Sadly, those will be the same adults that complain that they don't know how to spell and rely on grammar/spellcheck for their work. (And that have weird mistakes in that work).
