I will award six celestial points to anyone who can use this word in a sentence that pertains to the mighty mormon church. Yes, folks, six fully integrated celestial points to be used in the hereafter.

It besmirches me to have been a Mormon so long.

Six beautiful celestial point for you, good job

And it came to pass that ghawd, in his infinite wisdom, besmirched Laman and Lemuel, and all their descendants, with the curse of dark skin, except for the narrow band of skin under their wristwatches and the bridge of their noses, if they wore glasses...

Six more awesome celestial points for you my friend.

Despite its American origin, unusual theology and rampant plagiarism, what really besmirched the Mormon Church in the eyes of potential British converts was one thing: polygamy.

You can claim your six celestial points too, I'm so proud of you

Not such an unusual word is it SM.

We need a new word.

Besmirked.

Yeah, six celestial points for you. Way to go!

Oops, I besmirched!

Does anyone have a handkerchief?

            
                "Hosanna!"

Gazoontiy, six points for you and a new hanky.

Hahaha.

I'm honored to be included with Dags, Jesus, Parisian Tom, and the Green-Visored one--although my presence on that list raises questions about the currency's possible depreciation!

I've already traded them for celestial crypto coin.

Ah yes, the flight to safety.

A wise decision!

When I attempted to use celestial points to enter heaven my worthiness was besmirched by the angels as I didn't know the sacred (not secret) handshakes.

Congratulations, you now have six more celestial points. Use them for awesome celestial perks.

I am amused that such an ordinary word is a subject of amusement here. But I can recall another perfectly normal word being used some years ago receiving all kinds of surprised discussion. In fact I made one attempt at using that word but my post was denied for using a banned word. I assume it is seen as racist yet it has absolutely no meaning connection to anything racist. Absurd.

Your comment bespeaks a fundamental bemusement regarding our benighted understanding of your beloved tongue. I beseech you to bear in mind that we are bereft of all but a basic education from our beleaguered (leftist) grammar schools.

But perhaps I belabour the point unnecessarily. Suffice it to say that for many of us, a foreign languages is a toy with which it is a delight to play.

Adjusting a quote I cannot attribute..."If the English language made any sense (to those divorced from its origins) lackadaisical would have something to do with flowers."

You should see what happens to me when I start thinking about adverbs that start the inseparable particle "a."

Amiss
Abroad
Alive
Asleep
Afoot
Ashore
Anew
Afresh
Akin
Asleep
Awry

The craziest things happen when you mix different languages and then give the resulting one centuries or millennia to evolve!

Show off. No additional celestial points for that.

Yeah, well you'll be begging me to take that cryto off your hands.

I need only (a)bide my time.

I wore new shoes to sacrament on a rainy day. They got besmirched. Really, really besmirched.

And, six valuable celestial points for you too. Thank You!
