My daughter-units were using our church key to open several
bottles of soda today. Daughter-unit Alpha was really intrigued
by it -- the design, functionality, everything about it -- and
asked me why it was called a "church key." I hated to admit
it... But I didn't have an answer. Gooja didn't help narrow
down that bit of trivia.

Why is it called a church key?

Many thanks.

It's similar to your reading comprehension. I didn't say it
was broken. I said it didn't help narrow it down.

Well I searched on origin of "church key" and got:
Results 1 - 10 of about 110,000 English pages for origin of "church key".

I was trying to be humorously but chidingly polite. What I really meant
was, you must be an idiot. I googled church key and got plenty of
information about the term's etymology.
