No.
The Academy of Elijah taught, whoever studies the laws (of the Torah) every day, (he) is guaranteed to have a share in the World to Come.

‏119:139 צִמְּתַתְנִי קִנְאָתִי כִּישָׁכְחוּ דְבָרֶיךָ צָרָי
My zeal incenses me, for my adversaries have forgotten Your words.
‏119:141 צָעִיר אָנֹכִי וְנִבְזֶה פִּקֻּדֶיךָ, לֹא שָׁכָחְתִּי.
 I am young and despised; I have not forgotten Your precepts.

" A fool does not realize, and an unwise person does not understand this (i.e. the following:) When the wicked bloom like grass, and the evildoers blossom (i.e. when they seem extremly successful), it is to destroy them forever (i.e. they are rewarded for their few good deeds in this World, and they will have no portion in the World to Come!)

"Should bad grammer be banned?"

How about spelling?  Hehe jk

I think bad grammar should be pointed out wherever it happens, whether done by schvartzas or not.  Naturally, they will be corrected many times more often anyone with a proper command of English.  If we didn't try to correct our grammar, we would be no different than the affirmative action morons.
"The Jews will eventually have to face up to what you're dealing with here.  The arabs will never love you for what good you've brought them.  They don't know how to really love.  But hate!  Oh, G-d, can they hate!  And they have a deep, deep, deep resentment because you have jolted them from their delusions of grandeur and shown them for what they are-a decadent, savage people controlled by a religion that has stripped them of all human ambition . . . except for the few cruel enough and arrogant enough to command them as one commands a mob of sheep.  You are dealing with a mad society and you'd better learn how to control it."

I think it's stupid the way many people write in bad grammar online because they're lazy. But if we were to ban it altogether, we couldn't make fun of Ebonics. But I don't mind banning it for native Ebonics speakers.

Grammer has nothing to do with people have to say, if you want great grammer and boring posters go right ahead.

You will kill all the life from this forum.

And I mistaken in thinking this forum is about getting the message across to people in the fight for the jewish race, or is it solely a spelling bee contest?

Does it matter how the message is sent as long as it is.

Do you really think life is worthless if you don't have A in grammer.

Life is about contecting with people not driving them away. Over many years I have seen uneducated people do the most amazing things, are they to be discounted because of their poor grammer, or praised for what they have done?

Yes, it should be banned.

In fact, offenders should receive the death penalty.

This whole banned topic thing is wearing mighty thin, Yaacov.

I'm afraid it's not quite that simple. While grammatical errors are often the result of not being educated and coming from certain cultures, incorrect grammar usage can also be the result of having a language disorder which can result in morphological and syntactical errors which are a different issue altogether from Ebonics.

Yes, language differences should be regarded as an exception as well as language disabilities. It's also important to note the differences between language differences and language disabilities. So many people confuse with what I do as a speech-language therapist with what a teacher of English as a second language does.

Take it easy.

What is writing?  It is a way of communicating one's ideas and thoughts.

The more clearly a person's ideas are expressed the more likely they are to be understood by the reader.

In fact my favourite language is Hebrew, but I can't speak it.
And YES, I really enjoy writting and reading in Archaic English, more than modern one or Spanish.
Don't confuse Archaic with Old or Middle English, I refer to the English of the KJV version of the Bible

Do you like Archaic Spanish?



Yes, I usually use archaisms in Spanish, and I speak like a Spaniard, not as an Argentinian.
But Archaic English is our identity in Let-be-land. It was chosen because it keeps the pronoun THOU, which is the original singular form. It's a symbol of modesty, since YOU was origunally plural and meant superiority and politeness, that is "politically correctness", something we reject.
Archaic English is almost a National Symbol as the flag, the Anthem, the Coat of Arms (a marble) and the Linden Trees.
