What Is This, Some Kind of Joke?

This is a little joke that makes me laugh and I wanted to share it with you. I hope you enjoy it as well.

A man is rescued from a desert island after 20 years. The news media, amazed at this feat of survival, ask him to show them his home.

“How did you survive? How did you keep sane?” they ask him, as he shows them around the small island.
“I had my faith. My faith kept me strong. Come.” He leads them to a small glen, where stands an opulent church, made entirely from palm fronds, coconut shells and woven grass. The news cameras take pictures of everything – even a prayer book made from banana leaves and written in octopus ink. “This took me five years to complete.”
“Amazing! And what did you do for the next fifteen years?”
“Come with me.” He leads them around to the far side of the island. There, in a shady grove, is an even more beautiful church. “This one took me twelve years to complete!”
“But sir” asks the reporter, “Why did you build two churches?”
“This is the church I attend. That other place? Hah! I wouldn’t set foot in there if you PAID me!”
