    I looked up "Bethel" in the Insight book ane this is what they said on page 297:

    "Bethel continued as an idolatrous sanctuary till the fall of the northern kingdom to Assyria in 740 B. C. E. Thus Jerimiah, over a century later, could refer to it as a warning example to those trusting in false gods to their eventual shame. Jer 48:13"

    Jeremiah 48:13:

    "And Moab shall be ashamed of Che-mosh, as the house of Isreal was ashamed of Bethel their confidence."

    Way to go Skipper! I love your line in research. Always knew the Jdubs were a load of old cock - I give up, everyone else has already done the dicks 'n' pricks jokes! It's amazing how many 'signs' point to the Borg as something distinctly ungodly, whether or not you believe in a God. Uncannily so...
