I had to look up punctilious. I'm not a professionally trained editor; school of hard knocks mostly. My writing teacher in college said my papers were "stilted and wordy". I never knew I was naturally prepared for editing Puritan works. Actually working with living authors is harder (which I do in editing The Confessional Presbyterian journal); they object to changes.

P.S. I may take some of you proof readers up on your love of that in the future.

The Regulative Principle: Samuel Miller gives a succinct statement of this principle when he writes that since the Scriptures are the “only infallible rule of faith and practice, no rite or ceremony ought to have a place in the public worship of God, which is not warranted in Scripture, either by direct precept or example, or by good and sufficient inference.”
