Location: Kerala, South India
Situation: Flood

Is your brain filled with religion? Yes.

Did they tell you since childhood that you're special and superior to the rest of humanity? Yes.

Has your house been flooded and you want to be rescued? Yes.

You can jump into my boat. I'll take you to safety.

"No, no, no. I'm from the highest Hindu caste. Go away. I don't ride a boat with a Christian!"
