A blond man in a blue polo shirt gestures while explaining his beliefs to a brown-haired man in a purple shirt (shown from behind). Blond man: "I believe the Earth was created when two angry turtles did battle with Space-God." Brown-haired man: "That's stupid." Blond man: "It's my religion. And I respect it." The joke turns the usual "respect my religion" demand inward: he respects his own beliefs rather than asking others to. Votey: a loose sketch of the brown-haired man's face looking impressed, with the thought "It's so profound" floating above him.
