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."
"Like what?" he said.
I said, "Well, are you religious or atheist?"
He said, "Religious."
I said, "Me too! Are you Christian, Buddhist or Muslim?"
"Christian"
"Me too!" I said "Are you Catholic or Protestant?"
"Protestant"
I said, "Me too! Are you Episcopalian or Baptist?"
He said, "Baptist"
"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 Reformed Baptist Church of God?"
"Reformed Baptist Church of God!"
I said, "Me too! Are you Reformed Baptist Church of God, Reformation of 1889, 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
