Question: How many UUs does it take to change a light bulb?
Answers:
- None, we accept the light bulb the way it is.
- None, we appoint a committee to raise funds to pay the electric bill.
- None, UUs think the light bulb should change by itself.
- Three: One to change the bulb. The other two make sure the power doesn't go to her head.
- None, UUs aren't afraid of the dark!
- Nine. Three to form the committee "For" change; three to form the committee "Against" change; two to abstain; and one secretary to record the meetings of both groups.
- It's about 5 or 6, isn't it? Whatever is a quorum for the church board meeting. Well, plus, of course a couple members of the Building & Grounds Committee to actually get the ladder & bulb and DO it... and of course the chair and vice- chair of the committee to supervise... oh, they can't come Saturday? Well, how about Sunday just before the service... oh, the choir's rehearsing? Oh, God! No, I'm not praying! It's just an expression! What do you mean, I use too many careless expressions!? If I gave the kind of wacky pulpit editorials you do... no I am NOT appointing myself Censor of the Liturgy... Liturgy?? What's a liturgy?.....

How many UUs does it take to change in a light bulb?
Answer:
Three - one to write a solemn statement which will affirm the following:
- This light bulb is natural, a part of the universe, and evolved over many years by small steps.
- There must be no discrimination against dark bulbs in any form, and means must be found for all "dark" bulbs to take their place alongside light bulbs on a basis of equality.
- We affirm the right of all bulbs to screw into the sockets of their choice regardless of the bulb's illumination preference.
- UUs seek for each light bulb the fullest opportunity to develop itself to its full electrical potential.
A third UU to light a candle instead of cursing the darkness.
