3. It's still funny.

I tend to be somewhat annoyed as I'm Presbyterian, though there are several "denominations" of Presbyterian, some liberal and some very conservative. I belong to a liberal mainline denomination, but the conservative ones often embarrass us because no one tell the difference by name alone.

5. Reminds me of a joke

Insert your (least) favorite denomination in it.

Things had changed in Heaven - just too many people were showing up at the Pearly Gates that St. Peter didn't have time to greet them all. So they would mill around outside until various residents of Heaven would come out to deal with the crowd. Today was like all other days... the angels came out and yelled for attention. "We're going to need everyone to group together with their particular denomination." After 10 minutes of shuffling around, the groups were made, and after a few more minutes, one of them was led in with many in the crowd smirking at the other groups as they walked by. Thirty minutes later, the angel who was assigned to "everyone else," called for their attention, and all the other groups entered Heaven as well.

Once inside the gates, the angel showed them all the marvels of Heaven from where God normally sat on His throne to the opulent buildings where everyone resided according to their preferences. Everyone was amazed and chattering until they came to a certain building, and the angel called for silence. He told his group, "We need to pass through this building, but I want you all to remain absolutely quiet. The lobby should be empty right now so we shouldn't meet anyone. Just be quiet." They passed through the building without incident, and the tour continued.

At the end of the tour, the angel asked if there were any questions. One man raised his hand and said, "Well, we're all only confused about two things - why did one group enter Heaven before us, and what was that one building we had to be quiet in?"

The angel replied, "The answer to your questions is the same. We let the Southern Baptists in and get them settled in their rooms first. It's just easier for all parties to let them believe they're the only ones getting in."
