Morons these days...

No, I've never once seen you do this. I have, however, seen you make up moronic crap in an attempt to appear intelligent, but clearly, nobody's impressed.

Again, I find myself moved to pity your apparent self-loathing.

Sad.

If you really were correcting someone's acceptable grammar, then I take it back.

Yes, but have you ever done it because you were feebly trying to discredit the person in question, or simply because grammar is a passion of yours?

Grammar is one thing but speling is another. Everyone should lern 2 spel well.
I think it would be morally right to lie about your religion to edit the article favorably.

A case can be made that correct grammar is the only acceptable grammar. But it's not important enough to argue about.

The latter, sir.
