How many Christians does it take to change a light bulb?
Charismatic:
Only one. Hands already in the air.
Pentecostals:
Ten. One to change the bulb, and nine to pray against the spirit of darkness.
Baptists:
At least 25. One to change the light bulb, and three committees to approve the change and decide who brings the potato salad, and another group to break off and form another congregation because some of the men allowed a woman to twist the bulb.
Catholics:
None. Candles only.
Presbyterians:
None. Lights will go on and off at predestined times.
Episcopalians:
Three. One to call the electrician, one to mix the drinks and one to talk about how much better the old one was.
Mormons:
Five. One man to change the bulb, and four wives to tell him how to do it.
Unitarians:
We choose not to make a statement either in favor of or against the need for a light bulb. However, if in your journey you have found that light bulbs work for you, that is fine. You are invited to write a poem or compose a modern dance about your light bulb for next Sunday's service, in which we will explore a number of light bulb traditions, including incandescent, florescent, three-way, long-life, and tinted, all of which are equally valid paths to luminescence.
Methodists:
Undetermined. Whether your light is bright, dull, or completely out, you are loved. You can be a light bulb, turnip bulb or tulip bulb. Church-wide lighting service is planned for Sunday. Bring bulb of your choice and a covered dish.
Nazarene:
Six. One woman to replace the bulb while five men review church lighting policy.
Lutherans:
None. Lutherans don't believe in change.
Quakers:
None. The Inner Light is enough.
Amish:
