"With Her Head Full of Coppers Like a Beggar's Bowl..."
Lady at Work: You're Episcopalian, right?
Soujin: ^__^ That's right!
Lady: Well, my daughter--we're Catholic--my daughter is converting to Episcopalianism. I'm really worried.
Soujin: Oh, no, ma'am, it's a really nice branch.
Lady: Are you sure? I know you don't have confession--
Soujin: Well, not to a priest, but when I say my daily devotions every night I confess to God.
Lady: Really? And you don't sing in Latin.
Soujin: No, but we have really nice hymns. We're a really accepting branch. I think your daughter will be happy.
Lady: You still baptise the children, right?
Soujin: Of course! ^_^
Lady: What about babies? Do you eat babies?
Soujin: Only during Pentecost!
...well, no, not the last bit. But really. ^^ We're actually closer to Catholicism than anybody else, I think, but she was really, really scared that her daughter was in effect leaving the church by becoming Episcopalian.
Soujin: And we do our sacrifices in the backyard of the church, never on the altar, because that's a fire hazard--

You must have scared the poor lady... :) Aw, but I'm sure what you actually said would have calmed her down considerably.
