Who Said That? Captain America vs. 2 Corinthians

Who Said That? Captain America vs. 2 Corinthians

I just spotted a news article at IO9 about the fact that the majority of respondents to a survey attributed the following quote to Captain America:

“We often suffer, but we are never crushed. Even when we don’t know what to do, we never give up.”

That’s 2 Corinthians 4:8 in the translation of the Contemporary English Version. And as most readers of this blog will know, 2 Corinthians was not written by Captain America.

The original source of the story is The Christian Post, and their article provides further information. The survey was apparently conducted by the American Bible Society.
