Can you answer this question (in 30 words or more) with immaculate spelling and grammar?

Question

And what is your religion?

(just polling for any possible correlations)

behonest: So close, so close...

Answer 1

I can not guarantee that my spelling and grammar will be immaculate, but I will do my best. I think the problem is that spelling and grammar, while seemingly objective, have different standards depending on the person and the source used to determine what is correct. It is especially tricky with commas, as they are the most frequently changing grammatical rule.

I say this all not only as a Christian, but as a student of languages and linguistics. I anxiously await my grade.

Answer 2

Producing an immaculate text does indeed seem to be a dying craft. This is seen most prominently but not exclusively on the internet in the Instant Messaging and E-Mail formats and Yahoo Answers is certainly not an immune venue.

Additionally, I am surprised to find such horrendous spelling errors as the gracious hosts of YA have provided us with spell check which so kindly highlights misspellings with a delightful squiggly red underline.

In answer to your second question, I am a member of a Christian denomination and a follower of Yeshua and the teachings of the Bible. Preferably the New International Version because I am not able to read the original texts and
find this to be the most faithful translation.


(what correlations are you anticipating? and will you be publishing your findings?)

Answer 3

I thought that I might have been alone in doing such. I pay attention to grammar, punctuations, etc. Hey, I had English as my second major ! And, I really do wish that Y!A! would update their spell check, which I have suggested. I have experienced a " misspell" when the spelling was correct and/or, the word is not even in their system.

Answer 4

I believe that I can answer your question using immaculate spelling and grammar. It is very sad to see the people who are unable to spell and use proper grammar in constructing conversation recently.
In answer to the second question, I am a Christian.

Answer 5

I am a Unitarian Universalist. The following 7 principles are what UU's affirm and promote.

1. The inherent worth and dignity of every person;
2. Justice, equity and compassion in human relations;
3. Acceptance of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth in our congregations;
4. A free and responsible search for truth and meaning;
5. The right of conscience and the use of the democratic process within our congregations and in society at large;
6. The goal of world community with peace, liberty, and justice for all;
7. Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part.

I'm not really sure I can compete with the Jehovah's Witness though. Wow.

Answer 6

Well, for starters, I have no set religion. I prefer to acknowledge my freethinking theist status with an open mind towards religions of the world. I'm shocked that someone here would choose to answer a question like this with a cut-and-paste answer as seen as above, but not really.

Answer 7

I can answer the question in 30 words or more, within the guidelines you posed. The real question should be, not "can" I, but rather "will" I. The answer to that is: "No, I choose not to".

For the poll, I am aligned with Christianity.

Answer 8

I'm a Christian and as a former page editor for my high school newspaper, I try my very best to be an immaculate speller and use proper grammar. Many people claim that Christians have horrible grammar, so I try to show them that that statement isn't entirely accurate.

Answer 9

Yes. I can. Although, the only question I see is asking what my religion is. I'll answer that one for you, and since you are so nice, I'll do my utmost to be perfect in spelling and grammar. It should be pretty easy, since I used to teach English (I even remembered to us a capital in English. Are you impressed?).

Oh.. I'm LDS, by the way.

Answer 10

I am an agnostic. This means, in my understanding, that there is no verifiable, conclusive proof concerning the existence of a supreme being. Since it is impossible to prove a negative, the nonexistence of a supreme being cannot be proven, either. Therefore, we cannot know whether God exists or not.

I have also shades of Epicureanism scattered through my agnosticism: If the gods exist, they don't appear to be all that interested in what goes on here on earth.
