Comicus: The Christians are so poor...

Swiftus: How poor are they?

Comicus: Thank you. They are so poor... That they only have one God.

[drumbeat, everyone laughs]

Comicus: But we Romans are rich. We've got a lot of gods. We've got a god for everything. The only thing we don't have a god for is premature ejaculation... but I hear that's coming quickly.
