Who's To Blame For This Mistake?

My youngest daughter found a typo in her Bible:

"They didn't capitalize the word God."

She's reading about the story of the Tower of Babel. "Why would people want to be like God?" she asks. "You can never become more powerful than God. God is like a burning fire over here and we're like a little city over here. That burning fire can stop, but we can't stop it. Because it's not like any other fire."

She also made note about the Tower of Babel: "God was very angry, but He still loved them."

"I would like to build a tower, but not going up into the heavens; because that would spoil the surprise of going to heaven."

What do they say about "from the mouths of babes...?"

Doug,
Sometimes we need to listen to our children more often as they seem to listen more clearly to the Lord's voice.

BTW just finished reading "Body Piercing Saved My Life" and wanted to applaude you your time given to the author and insights. Super job and congratulations on HM's success.
