This could be a true story.

Obviously, it's not. But it COULD be.

The Church Fire

During a recent ecumenical gathering, a secretary rushed in shouting, "The building is on fire!"

The METHODISTS gathered in a corner and prayed.

The BAPTISTS cried, "Where is the water?"

The CHURCH OF CHRIST called a meeting to determine if fire was scriptural.

The QUAKERS silently praised God for the blessings that fire brings.

The LUTHERANS nailed a notice on the door declaring that the fire was evil.

The ROMAN CATHOLICS passed the plate to cover the damage.

THE CONGREGATIONALISTS shouted, "Every man for himself!"

The FUNDAMENTALISTS proclaimed, "It's the vengeance of God! Darn, it looks like it's a post-trib rapture."

The EPISCOPALIANS formed a procession and walked out.

The CHRISTIAN SCIENTISTS concluded that there was no fire.

The PRESBYTERIANS formed a committee and appointed a chair person to look into the matter and submit a written report in two years.

The UNITARIANS called the fire department.
