To: Knitting A Conundrum

"Capital letters WERE a later invention...writing was in all caps or all lower case, counting on when and where for a long time...even separating words was not done in all times in all places....Something to think about when you see caps on ancient texts..."

By the time the Greek texts extant of the writings of +Ignatius, capital letters had been invented and were in regular use combined with lower case.... Something else to think about....

Do you really think that Jesus cares if we use capitol letters or not?

As long as what we write is grounded in LOVE and TRUTH is what really matters.

Dear friend, What is in our HEARTS is what our Lord sees.

I wish you a Blessed evening!
