This is just a hack imposing a hierarchical structure on the key space, 
and complicating the parsing requirements. Functionally, it's exactly 
the same as:

religion=christian
denomination=baptist

but with the added disadvantage that you have to have more complex 
parsing code (delimiters, escaping of delimiters, etc. etc.)
