Spiritually speaking, is having a lot of punctuation a sin?

is YA trying to save my heathen soul from this transgression? it seems to be vexed by the use of a simple elipsis, troubled by quotation mark.

    Your punctuation is almost appropriate. I certainly have the comparable concern with yahoo and the fault is theirs. you may take my word for it--I spend 0.5 my on line time mentoring aspiring writers, and that i be attentive to the mechanics like the returned of my butt. That pronounced, semi-colons are infrequently, if ever, mandatory. even though it truly is purely an argument in fiction. for the reason which you're writing non-fiction, your utilization is wonderful (different than, satirically, as a result--you wrote 2 separate questions, so which you elect 2 question marks). in case you have been writing a special, i might recommend changing them with finished stops or em dashes (--).

    Then fundies are the biggest sinners since ive seen a few use as much as 20 explanation points after damning someone to hell.
