You would think that the simple artifice of asking a reasonable question about Sarah, it tantamount to taking the Lord’s name in vain or something of that magnitude.

You probably should check the dictionary before using words like "artifice", vette. Your comment makes absolutely no sense. I realize you're even trying to be "Christian" in your choice of words since you did mention taking the Lord's name in vain, but, really, artifice is not at all applicable in the context in which it was used. Perhaps a slip of the tongue mind?

ar·ti·fice - noun
1. a clever trick or stratagem; a cunning, crafty device or expedient; wile.
2. trickery; guile; craftiness.

I think the troll knew exactly why it used the word “artifice”.
