Tom, If you use the old connotation of SOB, you are partially correct. Son of a bitch would imply that he was the son of a female dog. In this day and time, the use of these words no longer apply to the animal factor, and are used just as an insult to the person being spoken to. My intent was not directed at the mother. My point in mentioning a Biblical reference was that many non-believers, which JFS had made clear that he is, jump at the chance to ridicule a Christian if they use particular words, such as the "S" word. The use of that word is not banned by the Bible, but is a societal taboo having nothing to do with religion. I find it amusing when an Atheist takes on a "holier than thou" attitude. Also, since what I said was clearly my personal opinion, I am not actually bearing false witness. One cannot bear true, or false, witness to something they did not witness at all. If you wish to take all of the sarcastic sneers, jibes, insults, and innuendos, from the likes of him, be my guest. I still think he is a SOB. That's my story and I'm stickin' to it. ~H~
