It takes a special kind of effort to parlay ignorance of the language of scholarship on the part of person A into a lie by person B.

So it's not a lie??? Not a fib??? Just the language of 'scholarship'??? The person repeating the 'language of scholarship' has been deceived as well as the person hearing it...But that's ok...Cause it's the language of scholarship...

I like to call a spade a spade...It's deception...No more, no less...

I like to call a spade a spade

Call a "spade" a "spade"? Nobody has mentioned spades. We haven't even spoken about shovels or any kind of digging tool.

Oh, wait. You mean it's a manner of speaking, a well known expression? You mean nobody thought you were actually talking about spades?

You're saying it's okay to claim we've been talking about implements of agriculture because it's a well known expression, a manner of speaking, an expression? I like to call a prevarication a prevarication. It's as much a deception to bring up spades as it is to think that this article says that Jerome worked from the original manuscripts, no more, no less ....
