- rollcat 3y agoSorry for nitpicking on your grammar, but you are supposed to use the prophetic perfect for stating future events as if they were past. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prophetic_perfect_tense https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prophetic_perfect_tense
- sprobertson 3y agoI think "was banned" is correct according to that link - > future events ... are referred to in the past tense as if they had already happened Lots of wordy theologist writing elsewhere in the article but it sounds like in practice it's just using the past tense.
