I've read -1 book.

Was it a good one?

-1 book.

How can you read less than one book?!

I don't know.

The Bible?

Wanna see what Christopher Hitchens and Richard Dawkins say about the importance of that book as a piece of literature?

That book has contributed more to human literacy and linguistics than any other in history.

By the way, Tarajo, do you really want to start a pissing contest over grammar?
I notice you didn't have the guts to give any named examples of the slur you are trying to propagate.

We're you referring to daandaan? No wait, he's an atheist right?

We're you slagging off at ESL folk? That's pretty lame. How about you try speaking perfect German on a foreign language forum. Did theists mock TGAC? The atheist dude who got banned recently.

You want me to start compiling a rap sheet of all the atheists who get careless or lazy or drunk or stoned with their syntax?

What's the ratio of atheists to theists here? I bet I can make a bigger list than you!

WAIT! Do expletives and non-dictionary pejoratives count as hallmarks of good grammar or poor grammar in your opinion?

I'll take poor grammar over bad manners any day!

ETA - had to add some punctuation marks to keep the whiny grammar nazis happy.

ANY book. If you don't read enough, you will probably have trouble writing. Simplez.

I actually seen a dude who read only quran and no other book in his WHOLE life. Amazing ye? Or maybe just sad.

My bad grammar is intentional, so I can share my opinion knowing full well I can play semantics with it if I get cornered in an argument and go in circles. It's a nice touch that it's also immune to your jokes.

WAIT I am not a theist, would you believe I didn't even misread the title............. I just got the two mixed up because I was so sleepy. I think, it's hard to recall given how sleepy I was.
