Or is there some special reason why "offense" is suddenly spelt with a 'C' instead of an 'S'?

Different versions of spelling. Example: Defense/ Defence

My english friend spells it as: Defence

There are other examples. It depends on the word--not everything will be spelled in such a way. :smile:

So God comfounded the way we spell too? I don't remember reading about that in the Bible.

Go read old text from the early days of America. The spelling back then wasn't the way we spell today, either.
