Does the protection granted by Birth Foretold protect SoG from being "insteaded" by Judas' Plot if played that turn?

Yes, but there's no reason to Instead SoG and not NJ (unless someone has 4 souls and hasn't played either yet, then you just fail anyway).

It makes no difference with the SoG/NJ combo, but if you're playing SoG alone for the win or for defense it would.

I didn't mean to play it on defense. I meant using SoG defensively by rescuing your own LS to prevent your opponent from having it available. There would be few occasions where this would be an issue, but I can certainly think of some.

ok- lemme ask again...how are you going to play birth fortold on defense?

Maybe it's your turn and you have the shuffler in your LoB (along with several other LS's) and your opponent has Faithful Servant, so you want to rescue it before he attacks...
