I didn't put "without any vowels" (amazing how much ambiguity can creep
into the simplest of messages)...

I didn't say you did. I copied exactly what you wrote and added an
accurate comment.

Why don't you tell us what you meant by "monotheistic 'sacred'
texts... writ[ten] without vowels"?

I mean the sort of text where the Messenger of God can accidentally become genitive (and an object of a sentence) when he's supposed to be nominative (and a subject of the sentence).
