“How do you keep a Baptist from drinking all your beer?”/“Invite two of them.”

A popular joke is told about Southern Baptists:
 
Q: If you invite a Baptist to go fishing with you, how do you keep him from drinking all your beer?
A: Invite two of them!

 
That is, the Baptists will each shame the other and you’ll have the beer to yourself. The joke has been cited in print since at least 1998.

Take 2 of them.
P.S. this won’t work with Presbyterians.

How to Keep a Baptist from Drinking All Your Beer
Heard this joke recently. Perhaps it has been around a while, but it was new to me. I thought it was rather funny. Probably all too true at times, but funny nonetheless.
