This one always blows my mind. Like eeing people thanking God for their achievements instead of saying they earned them. Whenever I talk to someone my age (I’m 40) or younger and they go to church regularly I just can’t relate.
It’s not necessarily that deep, there’s a lot of expressions. Sometimes you just say “thank god” and it’s just thanking your luck. Or at work if stuff goes wrong we say that “the gods of technology are mad at us” but it’s not a literal thing of course.
Yeah and I say stuff like that too. I’m talking like athletes and people specifically saying they did well because it’s what God wanted. Like how self centered is that? Yeah God wanted you to get third in a marathon but fuck all the people that die for no good reason.

Oh I see, I guess I’ve never noticed that happening
