Subject: can't convert Symbol into String

I'm getting the following error

- - - - -

 TypeError in Users#new

Showing app/views/users/new.html.erb where line #20 raised:

can't convert Symbol into String

Extracted source (around line #20):

17:  <div id="main">
18:     <p><%= shnView.label('nickname') %>   <i>(e.g. Craig10027)</i><br>
19:     <%= f.text_field :nickname %></p>
20:     <p><%= shnView.label(:email) %>   <i>(e.g. Craig10027)</i>   <i>(e.g. Craig@NoUniverse.tv)</i><br>
21:     <%= f.text_field :email %></p>
22:     <p><%= f.label :password %><br>
23:     <%= f.password_field :password %></p>

Why can't my shnView.label(:email) method create a symbol to sting conversion ... but f.text_field can?
