I know you probably did not intentionally do this, but the phrase goes: Remember, MAN, that thou art dust, and unto dust thou shalt return. In Latin, it reads: "Memento, homo, quia pulvis es, et in pulverem reverteris."

I am sick of the gender-neutralizing forces at work in the Church, so I had to make a point of stating the above.

Lol. Regarding your message to cyncooper. And pleae pardon me for barging in on this dialogue.
He barged into MY conversation and was JUST telling me how CAREFUL he is in what he writes. He was scolding me and being the thought police. Now, I see that I was correct and his thinking IS careless. He's just a wanna be wordsmeister.
Lol. Perhaps he was UNINTENTIONALLY scolding me and didn't intend on being such a picker of nits. If he is that way, he should be far more careful in his thinking.

Btw, I am also sick of the gender-neutralizing forces at work.
