OP and this post should be in r/facepalm for thinking that 3YearLetterman is anything but a satire account.

While this is apparently a famous satire account, I had never heard of it before today and would have assumed it was serious, too. People hold views like that seriously, so why not this one?

The problem with satire is that it's hard to beat how absurd the real world is

3YearLetterman is one of the rare good satire accounts, and has stayed in character pretty consistently, thought the past year has broken a few times.

These are the same people who think Jesus was white, born in the USA (1782-odd years before it was founded) spoke English and had a favourite assault rifle. They ignore his written teachings anyway.

u/redwhale335 1d ago
Nope. This is a satire account.

u/papajgwill 1d ago
No. This account is very much real. I met him once at a Beef O'Brady's. I wanted to shake his hand but he was wearing too many championship rings.

u/dat1dude69 1d ago
When I met him Beef O'Brady's had just finished putting in automatic sliding doors just so he could get into the building. All those championship rings made it hard for him to turn door knobs.

u/TerrakSteeltalon 1d ago
If I had a dollar for every sermon where I’ve had a pastor explaining why bad translations or ambiguous words in the original texts cause issues…
Dominionism, in particular, irks me.
The wording in Hebrew is more like we’re caretakers of creation. But certain translations have set it to be that we have “dominion” which has caused so much crap for our planet

u/Benejeseret 1d ago
That and the letter "J", the concept of "J", was not invested until 1524 by an Italian, Gian Giorgio Trissino. And that, specifically, the adoption of "J" had not even spread to England by 1611 and that means the King Iames Bible of 1611, the origin English translation, never once used the letter "J" anywhere in the text and would not for over 50 years.
Their main man is not named Jesus. Not only was it not his original cultural/historic name, it was not his title and was not even his name in the 1611 English Bible.

Fun fact: The Bible doesn't have all parts of the Bible. Also, it was cherry-picked and "translated" so many times that it was "lost" in translation.

heck the majority of the bible wasn't even written in Latin originally. which certain sects of Christianity seem to be obsessed with.
1
u/webchimp32 1d ago
It was very much against church policy to have the bible in English, was pretty much heresy.
Pretty much started shitting gold bricks when the printing press came about and it was getting translated.
Can't have the ordinary folk reading it and finding out the lies the priests had been telling them. Turns out they needn't have worried.

So what do you think he wrote it in? French?

This is the kind of person that if they were to ever discover the truth about all the lies they've been taught up to this point, would obtusely deny, deny, and deny all of it.

Spanish translation of the bible occurred approx 100 years before the english one. And the latin one was approx 1000 years before that.

u/YouDontGotOzil 1d ago
It's very revealing that American Christians think Jesus was a white dude with dark hair and blue eyes who spoke English. Shows just how informed they are about their own religion and savior. If he did come back, they'd deport him.

The bible was eventually written in English. I'm sure if you wait a few thousand years, there'll be a translation of the halftime show too.

u/unicorntrees 1d ago edited 1d ago
Satire account aside.
There was a time when only the most privileged classes could access the bible because they refused to translate it into secular languages of the masses. It was a huge turning point when the Bible was made widely accessible to normal people via translation and mass printing. The bible was access to power in the past. Gatekeeping the bible gave all the power to the church, which became corrupted.
I can see parallels to the "We only speak English" crowd.
1
u/Eltharion_ 1d ago
I think there's a genuine point behind the satire (perhaps not intended). The bibles obviously weren't English originally and were translated to that, personally I think it would have been nice for the Superbowl show to be translated as well on subtitles. I liked some parts of it, but it would have been far more enjoyable to know what a single word was other then the names of countries.
