A: Thirty-one. One to change the old lightbulb, fifteen to spend a long time choosing the new lightbulb, and fifteen to grieve the loss of the old lightbulb

One elderly preacher, one middle aged preacher and one young preacher were in a boat fishing one early Saturday morning. While they were discussing their individual theologies and contemplating the next day’s sermon, the elder preacher reeled in his line to find that he was in need of more bait. Upon realizing that they had mistakenly left the bait on the bank the undaunted preacher merely got out of the boat, strolled a crossed the water to the bank grabbed the bait and strolled back to the boat. They continued fishing and discussing, and after a few hours they begin to get hungry. In their haste to take advantage of the early morning hours they discovered that they had left the lunch basket in the truck. This time the middle aged preacher volunteered to get the lunch basket. Like the elderly preacher he strolled a crossed the water to the truck, retrieved their lunch and returned to the boat. They gave thanks, ate lunch and continued fishing. Shortly after they ate the young preacher was wanting to prove his own state of righteousness, after all surely God would grant him the same ability to stroll a crossed the water, and stated that he was in need of the portable commode. So, he gets out of the boat and sinks like a rock, swims back up to the boat and the other two help him back in. Refusing the offer to take him back to the bank, the young preacher hopped back out of the boat determined to perform the same miracle that the other two had, and again sank like a rock. While the other two were waiting for him to resurface, the elder preacher nudged the middle aged preacher and said: "think we ought to show him where the rocks are?"
