This is all pretty specific to geography. That is a question that is admittedly common in the south, but even growing up in a very conservative small town in the north, nobody ever asked that. (There was definitely prejudice against non-Christians, but it was more subtle.)

Since we seem to be doing this again ... I recently investigated the origin of the ridiculous myth that em dashes are a sign of AI writing. (The people who blew up the idea didn't even know it's called a dash. They called it "the long hyphen.")
I kept hoping this myth would burn itself out, but no — the idea that em dashes are a sign of AI writing just keeps spreading.
I finally couldn't take it anymore, so I crashed a segment into the latest Grammar Girl podcast. 🧵

Pope Leo, seen here rehearsing Shakespeare's Henry V, Act 1, Scene 2.
"The line is really 'When we have march'd our rackets to these balls, We will, in France, by God's grace, play a set'? Are we really going to march our rackets just to play a set in France?"
The Pontiff was heard asking...

Goodness, just checked the forecast for tonight — looks bad ..
A storm unlike any other. Fire falls from the skies, bodies spontaneously combust, lions roam the capital, ghostly women walk the streets, and the night owl was seen shrieking in the daylight. (Act I, Scene 3).

Apropos of Luka, to quote Charles Barkley on Piston great Oliver Miller in the early 90s…
"He's two words away from being an All Star...'I'm full'"
