For the sake of clarity then, I shall point out that I have not confused stupidity and ignorance (which in another thread we have all agreed the latter is not necessarily the fault of the ignorant). That you might not know Latin is no crime. However, even ignoring the monumental clue of the post which it followed, the simple phrase damnatio memoriae ought to be readily understandable by anyone who speaks English and has a modicum of intelligence, something I presumed was a prerequisite in order to participate in a serious debate forum. Damnation. Memory. The English derivation of the Latin roots are obvious. "Condemnation of the memory". Damnation being eternal, divine or religious eternal condemnation, of course.

I hope that cures your ignorance. I'm afraid the other is out of my control.
