For some it appears easy to confuse d-o-g and g-o-d.

That's OK, Groin. Typographical errors happen to everyone! And besides, you messed up on one of your most truthful posts! Something had to go wrong...

The boot? Hobbits (and Gollum) don't wear shoes!

Mr. Holmes need not apply

Perhaps a few comments about this thread are in order. If I'm wrong, I'm sure Estelyn Telcontar, the thread starter, can correct me.

The point of this thread is not to finger publically the typo-ist. We don't put Downers in the stocks for public humiliation. Nor is it a public confessional where the previously anonymous Downer must contritely do a 'Hail Tolkien' and win absolution for the sin of a spelling mistake.

It's a place to enjoy with others the unexpected humour of twisted letters, the comedy of cursory, quick keyboarding. Leave sleuthing alleged offenders for the Werewolf games and just enjoy double entendres here.
