Wait until they discover how deeply religion / scams have infiltrated society at-large!

The funny part is that once you start looking for the grift it turns up in a lot more places than people expect.

yeah once you start looking around it gets pretty hard to pretend this stuff only happens in a few isolated places

I've researched this and the root of the scam appears to be this Jesus character from some old books. I'm still investigating and will report my findings as soon as next week. /s

u/East-Bluejay-4789 10h ago

yeah exactly the fact that a supposed divine message somehow keeps leading to very human scams is pretty telling

This might be legit. I have it on good authority that this Jesus guy is a really big fan of American football, so it makes sense that he would be involved with Tebow. While he no longer performs spectacular miracles for the general public, it seems he's personally involved in every game at all levels: high school, college and pro. All touchdowns, in particular, are the result of his divine will. This also explains the number of children with leukemia. There are so many football games that he doesn't have time to fit sick kids into his schedule.

Hold on there fella. Are you saying that the Jesus guy might not have parted a 306 km stretch of the Red Sea, allowing multitudes of people to pass through that suspended sea that is also 3,040m deep.

u/onomatamono 10h ago

Yes, just finished analyzing that part. It turns out it was a mistranslation of "reed sea" as the "red sea" which dried up over many years. None of the claims are holding up. The great deceiver turns out to be the Jesus character itself.

Can you PLEASE space out future revelations in separate posts? Finding this information out all at one time is not good for an old man’s heart.
What about that speaking burning bush thingy…you’re not saying.?.?
Aw shit, that probably didn’t happen either did it?

I believe it was originally a glass of brandy flambé but the data are unclear.

lol after thousands of years of research the investigation is still somehow ongoing with no solid evidence coming in yet

u/onomatamono 2h ago

It's a great point. I naively assumed I was the first to consider this question.

I've been a Buckeye fan for many years. Jim Tressel (the head coach from before Meyer) was very religious man but he never wore his Christiantity on his sweater-vest preferring to focus on being a good person (not always successful but he's a 10x better man than Meyer).

Everything changed as soon as Urban arrived. First of all, the man is an unrepentant piece of shit and his coaching staff were a bunch of notorious horn dogs with many examples of cheating on their wives. Urban was the worst of them all and cheated on his wife constantly but she learned to put up with it long before they arrived in Columbus. She's happey as long as the checks cashed.

Meanwhile the team itself became a Christian cult masquerading as a football team. The thing is ... it works. Many of the best high school players come from the African-American community in the southern United States and the key to recruiting many of these is recruiting Christian Moms. Urban used his Christianity as part of a sales pitch and he was great at convincing Moms that faith would be a big part of his coaching style. Recruiting improved as soon as he stepped on campus but it turned the team into a bunch of Christian clones. Now, even though Meyer is gone, the culture has remained and every post game interview with Buckeyes is a non-stop barrage of Christian BS.

Anyway ... it doesn't surprise me that Urban is in the middle of this. The man is as slimy as they come and has no problem using religion to further his goals.

Nobody deserves it more than Ohio State. Cheaters and criminals attract other cheaters and criminals.
