Protocols do change with time. In the old KJV Bible, a sentence will often end in a semicolon and the next begins with a capital letter, which is something that I do not recall seeing now.

Also, if you are one of those grammar experts, it is most correct (at least in America) to place a reference within the comma or period (Jn. 3:16) or after it? I usually do the latter.

Thanks.

Anerican English is about as fixed as a frog in a blender.

Our former president Andy Jackson is reputed to have said "It's a damn small mind that can only think of one way to spell a word".
