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.

    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?

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