One of the research projects we have going on in my office is trying to figure out how women's beliefs about their odds of getting breast cancer compare to the real odds of them getting breast cancer. Kind of trying to figure out how well-educated the public is regarding breast cancer. A co-worker recently had this conversation with a patient:

(my coworker first obtained demographic information for this patient, and in the process the patient stated that she was Jewish)

Coworker: Would you say you have a low risk, medium risk, or high risk of getting breast cancer at some point in your life?
Patient: Oh, I'm never going to get any type of cancer.
Coworker: Really? Why do you say that?
Patient: I have a pact with Jesus.
Coworker: um... Jesus? I thought you said you were Jewish?
Patient: Well, Jesus was a Jew, wasn't he?


Some people are just so odd that's it's fun.
