Deny Your Faith or Die

ThePhan: Uh, FB friend posts, "There will come a day when I will be asked to deny my faith or die. Will I be prepared to die? Will I know why I'm standing up for my faith and what I believe?"
ThePhan: There WILL come a day?
ThePhan: Is this just something that happens to everyone at one point or another?
ThePhan: She lives in Georgia.
Goosey: lol
ThePhan: I don't think that day is coming any time soon.
Goosey: You don't know. She might have it penciled in for next month
Dave: That's happening next Tuesday, right?
Dave: It's marked as a holiday on my calendar. "Deny Your Faith or DIE" day is what it's called, apparently.
Dave: Of course we don't get it off.
ThePhan: Well, that's what I get for not going to church for awhile. I missed the memo.
Dave: So I'll be at work with all the other heathens denying faith.
Goosey: LOL
ThePhan: Also, that last sentence... if you don't know why you're standing up for your faith and what you believe, WHY ARE YOU DOING IT?
ThePhan: "OK, deny your faith or die." "I choose death." "Why?" "Hadonno."
Dave: "Seems like the thing to do."
ThePhan: "A Facebook status told me to."
Sentynel: Phan: When that day came for me, it led to several years of legal battles to determine whether I could, in fact, deny my faith when I don't have one.
Sentynel: The good news is, apparently I can, so I'm still here.
ThePhan: Sent: Well, I'm glad you're still here.
Maryam: That all reminds me of CAKE OR DEATH.
Goosey: LOL
Dave: Yeah, I'm hoping they give you more than a few seconds to answer the question. I mean, if it's just like "DENY YOUR FAITH OR DIE!" and I say "What faith?" I hope they don't just go "BANG" At least give me a chance to logic this conundrum out.
Goosey: LOL
Dave: That's like asking someone if he's stopped beating his wife.
Dave: I mean, first we have to establish if we're talking about African or European swallows.
Sentynel: Dave: It's Ninevah.
Dave: Uh, what is Ninevah?
Dave: You lost me.
Sentynel: The capital of Assyria.
Sentynel: I was answering one of the bridge-keeper's other questions. It's funny, see?
Goosey: LOL
Dave: You are far too advanced for me, sir.
