Needed to look it up, I was really wondering what religion had to do with a patch of beard. Soul as in music! Got it! (Jazz flute players who disliked the feel of the flute mouthpiece on a freshly shaven lower lip often sported the look (wikipedia)). In French we call it a fly, no wonder I didn’t get it. :)
It’s listed in the first chapter of “Dorkiness for Dummies” – the second chapter is for ear gages, the third is on body piercing, the fourth is on tattoos, and the fifth is dressing for unemployment.

My ex husband had one when we first met back in 1994… I was so glad when he got rid of it.

Soul patches, man buns, and pork pie hats. What price hipness?

Currently have a full beard, no mustache, stopped growing when it reached 6 inches and frequently sheds.

OK, kinda funny, but I dunno; I mean, Gregg Allman wore one for a good chunk of his life, and there aren’t many with more soul than he had.
