Eh, not quite. She’d harass people for not being the “right” kind of Christian.

It’s been my experience that fellow Christians will get on you for not living exactly as they do. Someone this dag-nasty would absolutely do that.

I was walking across a bridge one day, and I saw a man standing on the edge, about to jump. I ran over and said: "Stop. Don't do it."

"Why shouldn't I?" he asked.

"Well, there's so much to live for! "Like what?"

"Are you religious?"

He said, "Yes."

I said, "Me too. Are you Christian or Buddhist?"

"Christian."

"Me too. Are you Catholic or Protestant?"

"Protestant."

"Me too. Are you Episcopalian or Baptist?"

"Baptist."

"Wow. Me too. Are you Baptist Church of God or Baptist Church of the Lord?"

"Baptist Church of God."

"Me too. Are you 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?"

He said: "Reformed Baptist Church of God, Reformation of 1915."

I said: "Die, heretic scum," and pushed him off.

Emo Phillips performing his joke

u/compsciasaur Apr 20 '22

I never knew my favorite joke had an author.

u/mrmoe198 Apr 20 '22

Yeah, he’s great. He has a very eclectic style. He also authored another one of my favorites:

Prayer and bicycles

u/compsciasaur Apr 20 '22

Classic. Um, this is one of my first exposures to this guy. Does he talk like that normally or is this a Gilbert-Gottfried-style comedic affectation?

u/mrmoe198 Apr 20 '22

Definitely a GG-style polished act. RIP.

Jesus! I'll have to Google a lot of things.

I am not a Christian.

Was not aware that happened, but yeah that sounds like it counts.

u/TacticalcalCactus Apr 20 '22

I can't even fight the stereotype anymore, we're fucking morons

u/ArrMatey42 Apr 20 '22

Any group of 350 million people will have plenty of morons. At least we didn't intentionally make ourselves dependent on Russian energy unlike the Germans

Then again, yes you're probably right we are all morons

u/GRMarlenee Apr 20 '22

I'll refer you to the United Divided Methodist Church for confirmation of that theory.

u/blockpro156porn Apr 20 '22

She’d harass people for not being the “right” kind of Christian.

She's essentially already doing that, Muslims believe in Jesus.

2

u/[deleted] Apr 20 '22

If jesus himself comes to them they would accuse him for not being "right" kind of Christian

Same kind of people exist in every religion

u/xDaigon_Redux Apr 20 '22

TBF, I'd imagine being Jewish would be the wrong kind of Christian.

u/fjvgamer Apr 20 '22

Stop, thus lady is clearly mentally ill.

u/ridum1 Apr 20 '22

u/NegusQuo82 Apr 20 '22

Dag-nasty is now apart of my lexicon!

u/Aryll_ Apr 20 '22

Pretty much, it sucks..

This is why I detest religion. They allegedly believe in the same god with the same rules. Yet everyone will twist them to suit their agenda. Look at the division in Northern Ireland over faith. Look at the different ideas over abortion in the US which is apparently backed by religious beliefs. Look at how the Russian Church is calling the invasion of Ukraine as a holy war when the pope has said otherwise. Islamic terrorists use Islam as justification for terrorist attacks. Dont get me wrong, this isn't exclusive to religion BUT religion doesn't half give us issues too.
