[Hey... where'd that mirror come from? Get that away from me!]Yes, Randy is smart.
If they're brothers, and this one is his little brother who wants to be like smart bigger bro real bad, then it's not surprising to me that their tone and beliefs are so similar. RB reads to me a lot more like a teenager, while Randy is in a pretty good college.
Certainly smart enough to change his style up a bit.
And narcissistic enough to need us to know that this is him.
Randy's brother? Not Randy's brother Mitch or Tyrone, even?
C'mon!
I concede that your point is a distinct possibility, and would even say it's more probable than my own hypothesis.
Perhaps I just wish to believe the best in people, where possible.
A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.
