  I've definitely heard (and read?!) "Our father who AREN'T in heaven" a couple times. My faith in human stupidity is confirmed daily.

  A lot of these malapropisms become widespread because people don't read anymore and have never seen the original idioms in print, so they start repeating them the way they hear them. Incorrectly.
