Archives"The road to hell is paved with word inventions"
in reply to a message by PriaposLovs
Now that's really interesting, P.L., and I hope this topic you've started sparks some lively debate. :)
It all makes me wonder whether the etymology of the word "demonstrate" might have come from the Latin words "daemon" ("demon") and "strata" ("via strata", a paved road).
In order to prove a *theory*, one must *demonstrate* one's evidence. In other words, can one's definition of deity only be arrived at through taking the Devil's Highway?
