It’s ‘tenets’, not ‘tenants’, of a faith

Mormons use the same terminology as Christians but deny the basic tenants of our faith.

Wrong term!

A ‘tenant’ is someone renting an apartment; a ‘tenet’ is a point of doctrine of a faith.

They both come from either the French ‘tenir’ and/or the Latin ‘tenere’, both of which mean ‘to hold’.

But they’re two very different words, with quite different meanings.

Let’s get our language right!

That is all; linguistic rant over.
