Help[Opinions] Inaccurate.
in reply to a message by I_Love_Jesus
Much as I love Mercy (and mercy), there's a reason it's Faith, Hope, and Charity, and it always annoys me when people try and "fix" it.

I just don't understand why anyone would want to replace Charity, anyway. It's such a pretty name. D:

Maybe b/c
"...the greatest of these is charity." People may interchange charity for another virtue so that little Charity won't go around saying that she's greater than her sibs. If that's the case, I understand the logic, but it still sounds wrong. :o)

I can understand the logic on the surface, but if someone's aware enough to know the "the greatest of these is charity" part of the quotation, I'd like to think they'd be aware enough to raise their children so that there's no doubt among them that one's not greater than any of the rest. :-/

Yes, but it's still teasing potential, I think.
I'm rather glad Ben and Sarah used Grace instead of Charity, because Emma is already the show-stopper. Always will be, I think. The twins are pretty passive, and Emma is just bombastic.

In the classic King James version, it's "charity," not "love."
1 Corinthians 13:13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

Yah, my dad actually uses love as well.
It does depend on the translation.

Depends on which translation you use.

Yes, some things just don't work.
Like "truth, justice, and soy milk"
Or "sex, drugs, and lightbulbs"
