Can a trout trot?
After I uploaded my last posting, I realized that the first sentence read, “Often when there is debate within the Church about some controversial movement or vision or person, defenders will trout out the positive “fruits” as a definitive proof that the phenomenon is legitimate and from God.” Now, I realize there often can be grammatical and spelling mistakes in blog posts, as they are not heavily edited, but I usually do check my posts for errors, but somehow this one was missed.
I’m not sure exactly how a defender can “trout” out a fruit – perhaps they swim down the river to grab it? I do know that when I was a boy my uncle would often trot me down to the river to do some trout fishing; perhaps that was the cause of my confusion?
Now I’m getting hungry for some fresh trout…I think I’ll trot down to the grocery store to see if any is available…

Maybe a “mackrel snapper” idiom?
