Another Light Bulb Joke

How many progressive clergymen does it take to change a light bulb?
None!  It is cruel to expect a light bulb to change!  We need to ban these insensitive light bulb jokes!

Presbyterian Church (USA) Delegates Approve Non-Celibate Gays for Clergy

53% of the delegates at The Presbyterian Church (USA) General Assembly in Minneapolis voted on 8 July 2010 to allow non-celibate gays to serve their churches as ordained ministers as long as they are in committed long-term relationships.  The vote must be ratified by a majority of the 173 U.S. presbyteries to become official.

If the vote is ratified, the church would join the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, The US Episcopal Church, and the United Church of Christ,the other American churches with the same policy.
