Charismatics: Only one. Hands already in the air.

Roman Catholics: None. They use candles.

Pentecostals: Ten. One to change the bulb, and nine to
pray against the spirit of darkness.

Presbyterians: None. God has predestined when the
lights will be on and off.

Episcopalians: Eight. One to call the electrician, and
seven to say how much they liked the
old one better.

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 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 personal
relationship with your light
bulb, and present it next month at our
annual light bulb Sunday service, in
which we will explore a number of light
bulb traditions, including
incandescent, fluorescent, three-way,
long-life and tinted, all of which are
equally valid paths to luminescence."

Baptists: At least 15. One to change the light bulb,
and two or three committees to approve the
change. Oh, and also one to provide a
casserole.

Methodists: (see Baptists, substitute casserole with Jello)

Lutherans: None. Lutherans don't believe in change.

That is wrong.

As a non-practicing humanist Unitarian all I can say is I'll be working on a haiku to better express my reaction to this thread.

I'll be glad to post it once I run it through the democratic process of a congregational meeting to make sure it is non-sexist, non-racist, sensitive to those who practice non-traditional lifestyles, including but not limited to, trans-gender congregants, reformed California Zen meditationists and neopaganist vegan based goddess worshippers wearing hemp. After that, we'll have a covered dish dinner consisting entirely of 47 varieties of pasta salad.

Blessed be.

Might as well form an ad-hoc group to study the change before it's formally presented to a committee.
