TO be clear, in case there's any confusion. I was 100% not accusing @FollowingHim of perpetrating any kind of Lashon hara against me or anyone else in this thread.
What?! I saw this when you first posted it. I saw it had changed a few minutes later. Later in the day I saw it was different again. Anyone watching the thread would have seen that, and it is not unethical in any way to point out what any reader would see. I suppose I could try and figure out exactly how long you'd spent editing it, if I wanted to, and share that. But it would be serve no purpose, therefore I have not even considered doing so (I am not expressing an opinion on whether this hypothetical sharing of pointless data would be ethical). This is a ridiculous accusation @IshChayil.Yep, we all know that Joe knows something.
He's a big boy and doesn't need you conflating our levels of scholarship as he continues to troll my thread which I asked him to stay out of (since I can't block a mod's comments).
It was unethical for you to "out" the time I spent editing my post; there's a reason that type of data is only accessible to admins...
Will this be the norm now when your ticked with folks Sam? To share with everyone the time they spend on their posts? I'm a writer too, it's common to craft, buy my books bro.
Or go back and reread my post. Usually you accuse me of something publicly, I have to tell you "go reread" then you reread and "oh my bad you did / didn't say that" etc. This happens constantly over the few years I've been here. I'm not bashing you in that post; if it came off that way I'm sorry. I am calling you out for unethical behaviour in this one.
Well I don't know what could be the case there. Usually I'll post, then craft it a bit IMMEDIATELY after before anyone responds. Add colors, bold, whatever, see what it looks like. I'm a visual learner; when I study the bible I have all kinds of color pens out and highlighters it helps me think through stuff. I never edit a post after a single person has responded to it. If I do, I put ***** edit ***** underneath it to draw attention to the edit, kind of like what you did (correctly). Anyway, ridiculous or not, different personalities. Anyway to lighten the mood:What?! I saw this when you first posted it. I saw it had changed a few minutes later. Later in the day I saw it was different again. Anyone watching the thread would have seen that, and it is not unethical in any way to point out what any reader would see.

Edit: Thankyou for confirming you were not accusing me of lashon hara.
It's only shameful if you're ashamed!Don't EDIT SHAME ME BRO! Say no to edit-shaming
I have the same bad habit. I call it a bad habit because it catches me out. Compare this post of mine from just this morning to the same post quoted in @Joleneakamama's reply, that she made while I quickly made some immediate minor tweaks before anyone had a chance to read it and respond... but was too slow... I'm trying to break the habit and make sure I do all my edits before clicking "post" but it's so hard...Usually I'll post, then craft it a bit IMMEDIATELY after before anyone responds.
I did the same thing, so you aren't the only one.What?! I saw this when you first posted it. I saw it had changed a few minutes later. Later in the day I saw it was different again.
Thanks AbassadorforChrist, you really added to the discussion about the sacred name and why Jews don't say it. Did anybody else notice edits before anyone had replied to the post? Apparently these are likeable comments in this thread now.I did the same thing, so you aren't the only one.
The Masorah. This is the tradition passed down by Jews that every single major bible translation trusts.
Then comes the Masorah (our tradition) and informs us using only Jewish tradition: it's good our ancestors preserved the text for us
adding clarity while not harming the sacred text.
You're very welcome! I am happy you think so!Thanks AbassadorforChrist, you really added to the discussion about the sacred name and why Jews don't say it. Did anybody else notice edits before anyone had replied to the post? Apparently these are likeable comments in this thread now.
Fascinating stuff!
