We are their common enemy

Hmm, his comment does a tremendous job at illustrating how humour is subjective.
"God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8).

Didn't even consider the sect v sect/ denomination v denomination competition!
And now that I think about it, you also have the idiots that kill themselves and accuse people within their own belief system of heresy due to a single divergence from the dogmas held by that group. They just need to upscale their assault on each other a bit more...
