A missionary friend of mine gave me this. I think it is funny.

How many ... does it take to change a light bulb?


Charismatic: Only 1
       Hands already in the air.



Pentecostal: 10
       One to change the bulb, and nine to pray against the spirit
of darkness.


Presbyterians: None
       Lights will go on and off at predestined times.



Roman Catholic: None
       Candles only.



Baptists: At least 15.
       One to change the light bulb, and three committees to approve the change and decide who brings the potato salad and fried chicken.


Lutherans: None
       Lutherans don't believe in change.



Episcopalians: 3
       One to call the electrician, one to mix the drinks and one to talk about  how much better the old one was.



Mormons: 5
       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 own 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 the next   Sunday service, in  which we will explore a number of light bulb   traditions, including incandescent, fluorescent, 3-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: 6
       One woman to replace the bulb while five men review church lighting policy.



Mennonite:
       What's a light bulb?



Evangelical: None
       Jesus is the light of the world!

One hundred.  One to do it, and the other ninety-nine who say that could have done it better. ::)

None. They can't get up that high!
