I think you're on to something, Mike. If we could restore those original emoticons, it just might clear up some of those trickier passages....mikew wrote:The Theos IRC chat showed an emoticon in the text of a verse.

So we might come across something like this?Let a woman learn in silence
with all submissiveness 
. I permit no woman to teach or to have authority over men; : she is to keep silent 
. For Adam was formed first, 
then Eve; and Adam was not deceived 
, but the woman was deceived 
and became a transgressor. I Timothy 2:11-14
