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.
