Excellent.
And there's my concern with the descriptive: father and son.
No such human relationship has ever occurred or can occur. And describing it as "father and son" is definitely confusing the religious folks. And this is a grave matter of concern to them (or should be) as 'not doing it right' particularly in this regard is heresy or apostasy. And we all know heretics and apostates don't merit Salvation.
And heretics and apostates are already occupying too much of our time and efforts here at Atheist Forums that could be better spent refuting folks actually "doing it right" and who are proselyting for the One True Faith.
Squabbles between atheists and heretics don't advance our core mission, after all. Heretics are damned as much as we are.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
