I was going to post this under "Jokes" but then realised it would probably get moved here - oh well, these pages could probably do with a laugh!

LIGHT BULBS
Question: 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
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.
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 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.
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.
Christian Scientists: Two. One to awaken the other
from the dream that light could ever originate
from a material element.
Amish: What's a light bulb?

Ha ha ha :D:D:D very funny, Judy, very subtle.
What you COULD do is to post a very brief one-liner in Jokes, just to say you have posted a Light Bulb joke in the Religions/Christians forum, and then post the link also, so peeps can go straight to it without a load of rummaging to find it. I've done this a time or two and it's not the same thing as double-posting.
Just a thought, 'cos it really is worth sharing.

U.S. Fundamentalists: Don't do it. Every lightbulb is bugged by the covert government.
Gnostics: No need. We are the lightbulbs of the earth.

Reminds me of a joke from dissident Poland in communist times: How many KGB does it take to change a lightbulb? Four. One to do it, and three to keep their eyes on the intellectual.

Lovely, Judy! (wipes eyes)
RE: Light bulbs
Good idea Holistic!
A Christian friend sent this to me a couple of years ago, but it did not have any mention of Christian Science (we're not Christian, you see 😉 ) So, I wrote to all my friends with a good sense of humour and asked for entries and the best one was added!
Venetian, this is nothing to do with light bulbs (well, the holder of) but you reminded me of this incident. On a Moscow nightstop many years ago, during the cold war, the BOAC crew were having a room party and got rather plastered. They decided to hunt for the bugging device and looked behind all mirrors, furniture and lifted the carpet. Well, in the middle of the floor, they found something bolted down. So the Engineer produced a screwdriver and they unscrewed it, hearing a great crash below. Shorly afterwards, banging on the door and a very irate hotel Manager informing them that they had just destroyed the chandelier in the room below! 😀

How many Witches does it take to change a light bulb?
Depends on what you want to change it into.
does this mean it will get moved to the pagan/ wiccan forum? <bg>
RE: Light bulbs
