How do you report an *app* as a concern?

[rburly]

But, that's not the point of this thread.
-- actually it's precisely the point, if it's the translation that's an issue. As you say, the app's been updated so it's a moot point now. Good thing too I say.

It wasn't my intention to drag the thread down so apologies to the people who have expressed that concern. I'd actually identify myself as a Christian (albeit an terribly lapsed and out of faith one) and my point was exactly about how things can be interpreted.

Again, the point of the thread was to point out the content of the original version of the app. That's since been remedied.

Personal interpretation is another matter. So, please don't make comments about what I've "seen" or read and haven't "seen" or read. Thanks.

Personally I am amazed people and supposedly intelligent people believe in any religion at all.

moot |moōt|
adjective
subject to debate, dispute, or uncertainty, and typically not admitting of a final decision : whether the temperature rise was mainly due to the greenhouse effect was a moot point.
• having no practical significance, typically because the subject is too uncertain to allow a decision : it is moot whether this phrase should be treated as metaphor or not.
verb [ trans. ] (usu. be mooted)
raise (a question or topic) for discussion; suggest (an idea or possibility) : Sylvia needed a vacation, and a trip to Ireland had been mooted.

i am more personally disgusted with 'moot' being used synonymously with 'end of argument' or 'no relevance' when clearly it is not that meaning unless it is only currently being used by internet chatters who don't use dictionaries...

Noun

moot point (plural moot points)

1. An issue that is subject to, or open for discussion or debate, and which could only be definitively determined by an assembly of the people.

Now that downtown has been rebuilt and business is booming, whether to build more parking spaces has become a moot point.

2. (US) An issue regarded as potentially debatable, but no longer practically applicable. Although the idea may still be worth debating and exploring academically, and such discussion may be useful for addressing similar issues in the future, the idea has been rendered irrelevant for the present issue.

Until we rebuild downtown, whether we build more parking spaces is a moot point.

----------------
When you kids learn the English language, come back and we'll talk. Until then, your point is irrelevant.

okay, ill let you US english people use that term that way, but still, you have to take into account that no one (as in person) can render irrelevant an issue - it had better be decided on by a committe. too much use of moot - but then i guess US americans use a different language.
