I was walking across a bridge one day, and I saw a man standing on the edge,
about to jump off. So I ran over and said "Stop! don't do it!" "Why
shouldn't I?" he said. I said, "Well, there's so much to live for!" He said,
"Like what?" I said, "Well...are you religious or atheist?" He said,
"Religious." I said, "Me too! Are you christian or buddhist?" He said,
"Christian." I said, "Me too! Are you catholic or protestant?" He said,
"Protestant." I said, "Me too! Are you episcopalian or baptist?" He said,
"Baptist!" I said,"Wow! Me too! Are you baptist church of god or baptist
church of the lord?" He said, "Baptist church of god!" I said, "Me too! Are
you original baptist church of god, or are you reformed baptist church of
god?" He said,"Reformed Baptist church of god!" I said, "Me too! Are you
reformed baptist church of god, reformation of 1879, or reformed baptist
church of god, reformation of 1915?" He said, "Reformed baptist church of
god, reformation of 1915!" I said, "Die, heretic scum", and pushed him off.
