(I may be messing this up a little... I've only heard it once)
A woman dies and goes to heaven, and St. Peter is showing her around. The first room they go to is filled with people shouting and dancing. The woman asks Peter, "who are they?" Peter says, "They're the Pentecostals. They show their love of God through lots of shouting." They come to the next room, and it is filled with people singing and chanting. The woman asks Peter who they are. He says, "They're the Methodists and Presbyterians. They show their love of God through song and chant." They come to the third room, and it's completely quiet. The woman asks Peter who they are. Peter says, "Shh! They're the Baptists. They still think they're the only ones here."
Seriously, though, I took a religion class and we talked a lot about fundamentalism, particularly Bob Jones since it's in SC. I was completely shocked by some of the things they say. I think as soon as someone told me I was supposed to be less of a human than my husband, I'd walk out right then.
