A favourite prank - True Story:

Guy from Québec goes to southern US for work. Thick accent and very catholic. Befriends locals, but finds the trope about ignorance to be ... deserved.

At bar after work, locals try to explain Christianity to him. He plays dumb and trolls EXPERTLY.

Merican - So Jesus died for our sins and came back to life.

Qué: Like le zombie?

Merican: Well, no. Not like that. But he showed his friends the holes in his hands to prove it was him and he really died.

Qué: Oui! Like le zombie. Wounds on hands from 'ow he died and fleshrotting off face...

Merican: No no nothing like that.

Qué: But he died? (Yup) For real? (Yup) But got back up? (yes) With wounds. (Yes). So 'ow eez dis not like le zombie?

Merican: I'm just not explaining it well. (Story goes on) Gets to transubstantiation. Take this bread and eat of my flesh. Take this cup and drink of my blood ... and you shall have everlasting life.

Qué: Mais oui! You See. Like le zombie! He eat your flesh. I see many movie like dis.

Merican: No! Sorry, I'm not explaining it well. Jesus doesn't eat your flesh. He wants you to eat his, symbollically.

Qué: Ohhh! I see now. Everlasting life? (Yes) So zombie Jesus feed you his zombie flesh and blood, so you turn into zombie like him and be undead forever. Are all Americain in dis zombie cult?

Merican: 😬🥵 well, when you put it like that I guess it does sound pretty weird.
