Actually lots of people seem to be that way about how they apply the lessons of their religions. Swear on the Bible, but ignore its more humane messages. Sad
The Latin word for left is “sinister”, while the word “dexter”, from which we get the word dexterity and the second part of the word ambidextrous, means right.
oh – now i get it – he thinks ambidextrous is some form of religion involving left handed writing – and his response denies membership in the ambidextrous religion and he proclaims his anti-agnosticism – too tough for me on a Wednesday morning …
If you have read The Count of Monte Cristo, there is a reference to writing with your left hand in order that your handwriting not be known. The other comments would make more sense with the reference to believing in God. Because if you are trying to disguise your handwriting, you really can’t fool God.
