Religious Diversity

The students in my fifth grade advisory group were to write two things about themselves that they would like to share with the group. The cards were then shuffled among the group members and read aloud for others to guess. One person read from a card, "I am merman." A discussion ensued regarding what merman could mean. I suggested that it was a male mermaid.

Alas, we were all wrong. A young lady finally spoke up, red-faced, "MORMON! I AM MORMON!"

"So," asked a curious student, "do you swim a lot?"
