Along with the concept of original sin and some nonsense about an imaginary being.

OK.
Catholics are not very enlightened individuals who are responsible for the suffering of thousands of children. By abusing them into saying Haitch.

Cos being Catholic is a sure sign that you know what's what.
As much as it pains me to say it, because it drives me fucking insane, apparenly 'haitch' is how it is said in some Irish dialects though.

It's still fucking wrong though. And schools do teach wrong things. I was one of many people taught that it is spelt 'Dilemna', even though no such word exists in any dictionary.

I am only really talking about how they teach English.
We know that they're not to be trusted.

Sorry. I was busy updating that and got sidetracked reading a BBC article about it.

Hold on, I just read you were taught "dilemna"?
WTF? Are you sure?
(Set your faces to Stunned Bigly, Fri 10 Feb 2012, 11:24, Reply)

Yup.
And I am very far from alone.

It's a common(ish) thing apparently. I spent ages reading up about it in disbelief just a few weeks ago when I discovered it was wrong.
