Well I gotta tell ya, he IS biblically illiterate.
I have heard MORE weird nonscriptural prayers being recited by Catholics. Always Catholics. They memorize all kinds of crap including prayers to angels and dead people (Mary for one). I'm guessing Fynn likes this one because it sounds very army, very "stand your ground" and military-ish. I've never heard it before.
I grew up Lutheran, which has a LOT in common with Catholicism (identical liturgy) EXCEPT for the fact that we had to learn scripture. By the time you hit 18 in the Lutheran church (this is in the past before they went off a cliff) you'd go through the bible many times over. We had a "sister church" as they called it, which was Catholic. So I recognize the crazy stuff Catholics repeat. (vain words, praying TO angels and "saints" and stuff said by rote).
Catholics are like Orthodox Jews - they both think repetition is great, and neither of them know what they're saying or talking about because neither group EVER reads or studies the scripture they would both claim are very important. Which is both sad and weird. As the Lord did say: "my people are destroyed for lack of knowledge".
