Percival Everett tells this joke in his "Dr No" novel, and what a better place than this to tell it (not Everett's original words but my translation to English):

"A mathematician is offered to choose between knowing God or a cold coffee. Why did he choose the cold coffee?

Because he was told that nothing was better than knowing God, and also than a cold coffee was better than nothing".
