You misrepresent what I said.  I completely agree that a pastor could
legitimately read Scriptures with the P_____, W______, or even the A____
words (Although, with modern translations around, I'm not sure he NEEDS to do
so).  In fact, what I have said is pretty much what you just admitted--that
using these words in other words can be (and usually is) in appropriate.
 Calling a person a "fag" is inappropriate; you cannot tell me Jesus would
have done so.
