Something to laugh at
March 12th, 2008 by Micah Fries
**UPDATE** I found this recent post by Timmy Brister providing a parody on Southern Baptist’s and their take on the environmental initiative. We don’t have many writers in the convention better than Timmy. If you follow the SBC at all, this will make you laugh. If you don’t follow the SBC, you probably won’t get it. Click here
I love laughing at myself. It helps keep me sane. 
I’ve seen this before, in a slightly different form, but I saw it again and couldn’t help but laugh again. In light of our discussion from the past few days I had to post it. I hope you laugh as much as I did.
Once I saw this guy on a bridge about to jump. I said, “Don’t do it!” He said, “Nobody loves me.” I said, “God loves you. Do you believe in God?”
He said, “Yes.” I said, “Are you a Christian or a Jew?” He said, “A Christian.” I said, “Me, too! Protestant or Catholic?” He said, “Protestant.” I said, “Me, too! What franchise?” He said, “Baptist.” I said, “Me, too! Northern Baptist or Southern Baptist?” He said, “Southern Baptist.” I said, “Me, too! Southern Conservative Baptist or Southern Liberal Baptist?”He said, “Southern Conservative Baptist.”
I said, “Me, too! Southern Baptists of Texas Convention or Baptist General Convention of Texas?” He said, “Southern Baptists of Texas Convention.” I said, “Me, too!” Southern Baptists of Texas Convention Baptist Faith & Message 1963 or Southern Baptists of Texas Convention Baptist Faith & Message 2000?” He said, “Southern Baptists of Texas Convention Baptist Faith & Message 1963.” I said, “Die, heretic!” And I pushed him over.

I’m guessing, then, the you are Southern Baptists of Texas Convention Baptist Faith & Message 2000 New International Version. A Southern Baptists of Texas Convention Baptist Faith & Message 2000 King James Version would have said “die, thou heretic”.
