I mean, neither is a big deal, but the intent is different

Obviously not a believer? How do you know that?

I've seen his stuff on Twitter over the last few years.

CPAcoug87

Apr 1, 10:51am

Okay fair point. I haven't seen his stuff before

lilpenny

Apr 1, 10:53am

Also, even if he isn't a believer, how is it more offensive for a non-believer

I hope they keep doing it. The more they hype him up like a Heisman candidate,

It's hilarious how much he's milking that place for money.

I don't get what he's trying to say though. Seeking living among dead? Huh?

ochobeeguy

Apr 1, 10:38am

This is from the Bible, not the BOM. "He who takes offense when none is intended

lilpenny

I agree, no need to take offense. However, I disagree that none was intended.

No, just that contrary to what his stats imply, he ain't dead yet.
