The conversation runs like this:
A: So, was the Holy Spirit involved in this translation?
B: Why, yes, of course!
A: Oh? Then how much of the success of the translation would you reckon was

B: All of it. Naturally!
A: One hundred percent?
B: One hundred percent!
A: So... are you giving Him His share of the royalties?
B: Uhhhh... what?
A: Are you giving Him His share of the royalties? If the Holy Spirit is 100%

anything?
B [who hasn't yet considered tithing the royalties]: Ummm... Ahh...
