    I will nitpick.

    It's not "you are" (you're). Alan got it right. It's "your." It established ownership like "our," but with a "y" before "our" which is spelled "your."

    Peace

    This forum will not let you edit after a certain amount of time, an hour?

    Make sure you do it right the first time?

    I was talking about what is in Bold.
    It should be "You're bound in chains..."

    Alright.

    Now, for one of my pet peeves:

    Grammar police

    I would hope that readers can get beyond minor grammatical errors and give grace to these things. For me, I couldn't care less about someone misspelling "there, their, or they're." I can figure it out by context so no big deal.

    It's a joke. An Attempt to inject something humorous in a highly serious subject.

    Reluctantly, I am using the ignore feature. And so far, it is working. I am not seeing the long, cut and paste quotes from people's books without any discussion of the truths presented. Makes threads easier to navigate.

    Sorry, I missed the joke. I have often observed grammar police derailing threads when they have no argument.

    If you cannot correctly use simple words like there, they’re, and you’re and your, you will have little to no credibility regarding weightier matters.
