    I know he’s stupid and a drunk, but I don’t believe for a moment he thought there was a biblical verse about aviators. They were obviously repurposing the Pulp Fiction quote for this particular pilot and his unit.

      Right. That matches his persona perfectly.

      I bet when he was around black people in social settings as a younger person he brought up Samuel Jackson to relate.

        It’s crazy how weak you look when you do things that you think will make you look badass. Like elon in a leather jacket trying to smoke a cigar. Can’t find weaker charisma ever.

      I think the issue was mixing in non-bible material, without disclosing it, during a sermon.

        He should not be holding a sermon in the first place. That is the main issue. It is rather inconsequential if the goobledegook he says differs from regular sermon goobledegook.

          I agree.

          That is the main issue.

          I guess?

          It is rather inconsequential if the goobledegook he says differs from regular sermon goobledegook.

          No, I don’t think so. It matters whether he is sincere or just a grifter.
