Christians and light bulbs

How many Christians 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.

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

Lutherans: None
Lutherans don’t believe in change.

Amish:
What’s a light bulb?
