Walking across a bridge one day, one man saw another man standing on the edge, about to jump off. So the first man ran over and said:

- "Stop! Don't do it!"

"Why shouldn't I?" the second man said.

The first man said:

- "Well, there's so much to live for!"

- "Like what?" the suicidal man said.

- "Well, are you religious or atheist?"

- "Religious."

- "Me too! Are your Christian or Buddhist?"

- "Christian."

- "Me too! Are you Catholic or Protestant?"

- "Protestant."

- "Me too! Are your Episcopalian or Baptist?"

- "Baptist!"

- "Wow! Me too! Are your Baptist Church of God or Baptist Church of the Lord?"

- "Baptist Church of God!"

- "Me too! Are your Original Baptist Church of God or are you Reformed Baptist Church of God?"

- "Reformed Baptist Church of God!"

- "Me too! Are you Reformed Baptist Church of God, Reformation of 1879, or Reformed Baptist Church of God, Reformation of 1915?"

- "Reformed Baptist Church of God, Reformation of 1915!"

The first man said "Die, heretic scum!" and pushed him off.

Dang…

This is how we’ve been divided. If a jew came upon the man, only one question, “jew or gentile?”

I DO admire their simple mindedness, resent their dogged determination at making life difficult for us.

Divide and conquer, done.
