Was he that much more devout than his rivals ? If I came runner up yet never missed a Bible class I would be asking some serious questions.
Because if you were a devout christian then you would accept that it was gods plan for you to finish runner up it's not a bad gig in all honesty, if your prayers are answered, then bingo, if not, that's what he had planned for you
