Ahhh, but they do seem to be Reformed Baptists

They are Southern Baptists. (Not that there are always terribly important differences between SBC Calvinists and Reformed Baptists, but I thought I should point out that the SBC folks usually don't use the "Reformed" terminology.)

Anyway, I do wonder how the MJ could be hidden on the roof! And I wonder who was tending it (if anyone)!

You do have a point: "Reformed Southern Baptist" is a bit unwieldy, especially since Southern Baptists started out as Calvinists, and didn't need to be re-Reformed (even if some of them sometimes need to be reminded that they have strayed from their roots if they are not Calvinistic.)

It seems like I might be able to find a joke with 2 Baptists and a bridge....

"Anyway, I do wonder how the MJ could be hidden on the roof! And I wonder who was tending it (if anyone)!"

Well, according to the story, the weed was being grown as the found water next to it. I'm guessing that somebody figured that the cops (or mom & dad) wouldn't look for his stuff if he hid it on the local church roof.

And now the joke (only slightly crass):

"Do you know why you should always invite TWO Baptists to go fishing with you?"
"Because if you only invite one, he'll drink all your beer . . invite two and they won't drink any."
