Typos can ruin things.

We talked in class today about how errors can change meaning. I have a story.
This is not a personal experience, it is a TRUE story that I heard from one of my roommates.
Last year her stake had a missionary fireside. You know, the kind where you bring your non-member friends and potential investigators? The meeting was supposed to be about the Plan of Salvation.
BUT, The program had a typo on it, and read , "Plan of SLAVATION." To make matters worse, the said fireside was in Kentucky, and the congregation that night was very, um, multicultural.
I'm sure there were more than a few African American families in attendance who were shocked and dismayed by our Church's supposed plan to enslave people.
That's all.
