ok, I was not an English major, but aren't clauses separated by the i./ii./iii things?

The point I am making is none of you are reading for comprehension...

If you're going to make statements like that, the blather about form and function looks a bit like a bluff, I'm afraid.

And you are a dumb shit too. It is blatant that you are full of it and Kirata is full of it. All I needed to do is provide a strong clue. A colon is not a weak clue. English does not conform to strict precedence rules. The clue was sufficiently strong. It is also clear that your actions and his are disingenuous. Kirata has a clear motive.

Let me begin by saying that I am a straight Dominant male. I am also one of the most extraordinary individuals who have ever lived. Yet, I am without a soul mate. Few men could ever claim to be my equal. Yet, I know what it is to be lonely and I have been abused by women. What I am saying is that if you are unloved, I too know what it is to be unloved.

The topic of this thread is how to preserve you for that special someone.

My suggestion is to perhaps enroll yourself in some counselling sessions with a good therapist (perhaps a kink-aware one) and see if that person can help you discover where the disconnect is between you and the rest of the world. If you are as extraordinary as you say (and I could never judge that not to be so) then something must be getting lost in the translation somewhere.
The right therapist could help you carve a map on getting from where you are now: unloved and lonely to where you want to be --> w/ soulmate.

Or you could attend knitting- or pottery classes

I'm starting to wonder if it's wrong of me to find this thread amusing. It's increasingly resembling a day out to Bedlam, isn't it?

Reading the thread, I had the same feeling I had during the scene in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest when all the inmates went off fishing for the day ......

Well, a clause is simply a construct that contains a subject and a predicate. For example, a simple sentence consists of a single independent clause. But if you are going to use a colon followed by a series of independent clauses, you must either join them using semicolons or set them forth in an enumeration (e.g., as per your question). Otherwise, any relationship to the clause preceding the colon terminates at the first period.

Or at least, that's as I remember it. It's been a long time.

No question that English is the free jazz next to the rigid twelve bars that characterise the rest of the Germanic languages, but there are still plenty of inflexible grammatical rules. Punctuation is one of them (and, due to the absence of word order and gender tenses in English, plays a very important role in structuring this language). I'd suggest that you check that "clause" means what you think it does as well, while you're doing some of that research stuff as well. The definition to do with sentence construction is pretty different to the legal one.

Many here seriously underestimate my understanding of formal languages. English is not a formal language. If anyone can't understand that they are seriously uneducated. Enough said. Please, do not embarrass yourselves any further.

What makes a language "formal" versus "informal"? Certainly there is formal and informal language (not A language, just different ways of speaking within a language). Some languages are very clear about that with certain word endings and such used to differentiate levels of deference. But what makes A language formal versus informal?

The Annunciation is the first of the Joyful Mysteries. Our Holy Mother did not share with me a Sorrowful Mystery. She shared with the first of the Joyful Mysteries. Ask yourself, what brings the greatest joy to God? By answering this question you will know something of the prophecy.

Glory Be to God Almighty

Nope. I didn't think you had a prayer of backing that one up.

Never mind. Post removed because I cannot be bothered with someone who does not understand English even at the most basic level.
