Did anyone else get deconverted by a single sentence?

RE: Did anyone else get deconverted by a single sentence?
I was watching a Youtube video of Christopher Hitchens, and he had a great one liner. 

Paraphrasing about his statement on Jesus: "You must listen to my commands because my Mom never slept with anybody". 

Being a Roman Catholic at first I admit I just thought it was a funny and a bit blasphamous. I was surprised I wasn't offended. Then I thought, that actually is a great point. 

Obviously it was a one liner played for laughs and not meant to be deeply theological. But I admit that "broke through" for me.
