FK: The Lord's WHAT? :)

Half-brother. Is there a problem with that?

I note that you have since covered this, but I was drawing a strong and important distinction between half-brother and step-brother. For your side that would make all the difference. :) "Half" is short for "half blood".

You are right. It was my mistake based on Mediterranean concept of "half-brother" rather than the American understanding of it. I meant step-brother. Thanks for catching that.
