Some how there is a tackiness and even a tone of bitterness or rancor in the posts here today.

Yes, I wrote ‘the abbreviation is Jas. in the KJV, rather than JAM,’. That was all ... no put down.

A matter of fact. My reason for doing so was the semi ugly tone of the poster replying to a post how she/he should buy a Bible and then they would know JAM was for James. I for one did not. JAS. is the abbreviation I have seen for my lifetime. I am not Catholic nor do I have a Catholic Bible.

On a Christian thread it seems unchristian to have the tone that many of these responses have today..MOO

Be nice.

I didn’t say you were using it as a put down, nor did I suppose your intent. I merely stated plainly that you were the one to point that out. I wrote, “It wasn’t any of the identified Catholics who first corrected her about the abbreviation of James, but geologist.”
