eek I would never do anything like that, that's awful!!!! gonk

How's it awful? It helps you out actually. Many of my English teachers in High School required us to highlight and annotate in our books as we did questions, prepared for debates, discussions, tests, etc. It's a very useful study tool.

Also, highlighting makes looking up certain passages easier. biggrin

In English it's fine, but that is way disrepsectful to deface G-d's word in original Hebrew!

Yup! Over that.. after I had asked my professor if it was okay.

I don't think my TA had any right to tell me I couldn't.

it was an essay referring to the Sermon on the Mount and Theism VS Deism and thus was writing about the Abrahamic G-d.

Why omit the "o" in God?
In GOD sure but God is just a (rather special) noun.

There is the Lord, GOD but that is not the same as in "Zeus was a rather lusty God".

Jews believe that by saying God, that it's taking his name in vain and blasphemous. Thus why they omit the o.

Exactly but that hardly applies to God, only to GOD; they are not the same.

GOD is a God; not all Gods need be GOD.

You're missing the point dear. Jews believe in the same God as Christians and Muslims. They are stricter when it comes to saying God's name in vain.

In this instance God=YHVH.

I'm not missing the point at all, GOD is distinct from God.

GOD

I am the Lord thy God, thy shall have no other Gods before me.

Does not equal:

Nonsense

I am the authority your me, thou shall have no other mes before me.

It says before him. It does not say you can't believe in any Gods at all. YHVH or Yahweh has to be number 1. biggrin

Good thing mine is not in original Hebrew. stare
Although I'd probably have even more notes from having to translate the freaking thing.

I can't bring myself to deface my Torah like that emo

I once wrote a university history paper and used G-d though out and my TA bitched at me and told me never to do it again.

Over leaving out the 'o' in God?

Yup! Over that.. after I had asked my professor if it was okay.

I don't think my TA had any right to tell me I couldn't.

This isn't quite true. It's not about taking the L-rd's name in vain, it's about not taking the title lightly.

That makes a deal more sense, still absurd though.

People look at me funny when I take notes in my Bible at church sometimes. stare
Why should I carry around a notebook when I have margins in my Bible?
What if God speaks to me and I want to record it and I only have my Bible at hand!
Personally, I think taking notes inside Scripture is fine. I have a Bible for note-taking and studying, and a "clean" Bible for all of the other stuff.

I am currently doing a really extensive study on 1 and 2 Peter in the New Testament, mainly because I am hoping to maybe lead a study of it at my weekly Bible Study.

Here's an example of what my Bible looks like when I open to 1 Peter, haha...



Like I said, it's extensive. redface

Do you write in your Scripture/Holy Books/whatever you wanna call the general term (have pics?!)?
Do you think it's wrong to write in Scripture/Holy Books/whatever you wanna call the general term?

So you have more information so you can get to God closer biggrin I don't usually write in mine but i write on pieces of paper and put them in this notebook I keep

Moot point. Word taboos are absurd, doubly so when proper reverence is simply removing vowels, triply so where it is a translated term that is being butchered- use a non-objectionable term or none at all.
Why is it preferable to flaunt G-d to GOD, God, Ghod or a multitude besides?  

[Sanguina Cruenta]

Most of my "holy texts" I don't presently have in hard copy, so I haven't taken any notes in them wink But I do take notes, usually in pencil, in various books about my religion and related paths.
