Testify Brother!
This is the old SOURCE vs CONTENT issue.
​
In many religions kids are taught to value the SOURCE over the actual content; "the Bible told me so" or "Pastor said ..."; it is a matter of TESTIFY.
​
This need to follow SOURCE, the AUTHORITY all too often carries over into adulthood.
Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!
