“Step-Messiah” implies that they already had a savior, and then got a new one through divorce and subsequent remarriage, which is a WILD concept.

The worst part about this is that it was almost certainly thought up by a team of half a dozen marketers who get paid $100,000+ annually to think up idiotic crap like this, while actually useful contributors to society like teachers live on starvation wages.
