I have found that the only way to rid yourself of certain rabid religious entities that come knocking on your door all weekend long with the above question on their lips is to simply outsell them. "Have you found Jesus?" They'll ask. "The true question is whether you have insurance," I'll reply. And then begins a sales pitch so epic that Donald Trump himself would be begging me to take every last dollar he has. I'll spare you the details for your own financial safety, but suffice to say that they came to lighten their copy of "The Watchtower" load, and leave with lightened wallets instead.

Ok...so they never actually buy the insurance, but it IS amusing to see them backpedal when suddenly faced with being the sellee as opposed to the seller. And what the hell...I have too much time on my hands

F: Yes, Jesus Valenzuela, he's the dishwasher at the Costa Rican restaurant on the corner. Real nice guy.

Since I look like the type of person that regularly goes to those type of restaurants, they usually believe me.

D. Usually I kind of roll my eyes, because I'm sure that I'll get a big-time lecturing if I answer anything. I'm Christian and whatnot, but there's something called extremes and harassment.

Your response is great, though :D I'll have to try that sometime. Ah, you Pagans and your sharp wit! :D

F. Other: "Yeah, he was between the red truck and the... wait, no, that was Waldo.... Jesus, huh?.... Jesus... which one was he again?"

Sometimes they laugh and we have a short discussion about the nature of iconography in religion. Othertimes, when it pisses them off, I have to let on that I'm Jewish and they usually say... "Oh, well have fun with that." and wander to another part of the food court.

F: Yes. If no one claims him in 30 days, do I get to keep him?

F. Why are you asking me? You were the one that lost him, so how is it my problem to find him?

F. I did, but I think I may have lost him in the crowd.

i'm thinking of

"yeah, and guess what, he had my car keys."

i seem to be agreeing, but i'm making a joke too. hopefully the ambiguity will confuse them and they'll look for someone else to pester.
