Upon reading this, I suddenly had this brainstorm. Suppose someone proposed to make a movie featuring Jesus Christ, Muhammad, Jehovah, and the Buddha. All went well at first: funding was secured, the roles were cast, and a first class director signed on.
Immediately, however, petty squabbling between Jesus and Jehovah broke out, due to old grievances regarding the crucifixion. Buddha demanded more money and a 30% share of the box office. Muhammad walked off the set in protest.
The movie went over budget and to add insult to injury, tanked at the box office.

Kevin’s idea reminds me of the Super Best Friends episode of South Park. I like the part where at the ends Buddha says “It’s alright. Everything is as it should be.” Jesus turns to him and says “Oh, shut up, Buddha!”
