theological capitalization

[FRITZ JUENGLING]

They've been doing this for years--along with the green ones.

The closed captioning on "Studio 60 from the Sunset Strip" makes an
unusual theological point.  Pronouns referring to Jesus are capitalized.
 Pronouns referring to the Deity (for you Christians, that would be the
Father) are in lower case.

Probably the result of somebody who was either careless or didn't read
the stylebook, but considering the amount of discussion about religions
on "Studio 60", it makes you wonder.

OT: The Gideons - I am not making this up - are now giving out
miniature New Testaments with orange covers.  Why?  For giving out as
Halloween presents.
