Palindrome - when reading normally top to bottom it says one thing but the complete opposite when reading from the bottom to the top. Turn up your speakers and watch and read the whole thing. Amazing!

Sorry, that's not a palindrome. A palindome is a word, expression or number that reads the same forward and backward
Examples: 1040401
racecar
Able was I ere I saw Elba
Don't know what you call your situation, but it's definitely not a palindrome.
Just passing along what was sent to me. I think the short video speaks for itself no matter what you want to call it.

What in the world does Christ have to do with a Palindrome????
You should understand that when people correct a word used incorrectly they are speaking about the word used and that has ABSOLUTELY nothing to do with religion or Christ or anything other than English. If people were not corrected when they wrote or spoke the wrong word, we would eventually end up all speaking our own unique language and no of us would understand each other.
When you speak English you need to understand grammar, and know what words mean in order to convey what you want to say to others so that they understand it the way you understand it. Just like on the road, there are standard rules and regs to know about and follow or there will be carnage. So too if you speak English you need to know when to use what word and how to structure a sentence.
If you don't know it, you had better take the time to learn it because many people in this world judge others by how they speak or use words, just as the old saying is still true... Clothes makes the man. People see someone and judge them by the way they dress. People hear someone and judge their education by how they speak. You don't have to like it, but you do have to know this is reality and it is what happens in the real world.
Live in your box or come out into the real world, but maybe keep your bible in your pocket more often that you may be doing at the moment. The person who commented on the correct meaning of Palindrome never mentioned Christ and I'm sure could care less what it was all about.
The OP just explained something that was NOT a Palindrome and someone kindly offered the correction so that the OP did not continue to confuse others by using the wrong word, regardless of whether he originated the posting or copied and pasted it from somewhere else. Just like If I were to post something about a lens but I said it was a flash, others would come forward to correct me so that I would not confuse others by keeping the wrong thing going.
From what I assume the OP did not know what a Palindrome was either, or he would not have said that he just copied and pasted what someone else had sent him, or he would have know it was not a Palindrome. If you don't use English correctly don't be upset when we correct you, or don't understand what it is you are talking about.

In defense of the post you are referring to, I assume the post wasn't meant to be focused on Christ, the poster just tried to show another palindrome, but did it incorrectly. What he or she posted was not a palindrome, because it doesn't read the same forward and back.
And thanks for backing me up. Too many people on this forum are totally oblivious to spelling, grammar and usage. Having has a good grounding in the English language when I was in school, it's really frustrating to read a lot of the stuff here. And you are absolutely right, when someone sounds ignorant, what they are trying to say loses all of its credibility. There are two people here in particular who write as if they are second language learners, and come across as if they never heard of the English language.
Oh no the language Police are at the door.

Well said!
Pbearperry complains of language police after using " Poop" in a one word insult to the previous posters?
Unfortunately the more that such bad usage of English spreads the worse it becomes. A short answer would be to have a spell checker on this word processor. At least it might clear up some of the worst examples of bad spelling although those who state things like " I new (knew) that there (their) settings ware ( were ) wrong" would get no help from one.
In fairness there are some to whom English really is a second language and allowances should be made for their creative word and spelling usage and normally Hogs make that differentiation.

...but some people can see right through their "words"? :|
The Poop word was not meant to insult anyone.It was my lame attempt of showing I knew one.I am starting to feel bad for some of the posters in here.It's been years since I have been this angry.Guess I am mellowing out?

Yeah we understood your poop was a Palindrome, I think the other poster misunderstood what you were actually saying.
When it comes to people who's English is a second language you can usually work out who they are from the way they use the words, correct or incorrect and their other details, and of course we are always pleased they can write anything because usually our mastery of their language is non existent.
For those who were born speaking English or possibly some facsimile of it, there is little excuse for such bad language skills other than pure laziness or never paying attention in school. I cringe when I see then when it should have been than, or ideal when it should have been idea (seems to be a southern thing) and all the other usual mistakes, many of which a spell check would not help.
I know another Palindrome:
A man a plan a canal Panama
Thank you for giving me the chance to use it, someone recited that palindrome to me several years ago and I have waited for my chance to repeat it. Palindromes, you see, don't often come up in conversation.
