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.
